  2. 2 weeks, boy can't stand the wait
  3. Alright fellas, I'm at a standstill right now. I can't decide if it looks better laid on the frame or with the nose up in the air. Whatcha guys think?
  4. I'm digging it. I build this 67 from an unpainted glue bomb
  5. Update time, gonna be a curbside car, I don't like how outdated this it is. Ride height Waxed out Started the grill, tried to use plastic strip but it was to thick, so I'm using spare photoetch sprues
  6. Got it figured out. As a last resort I was ready to reinstall windows when the internet crashed. Cable company came out and discovered the main line I use for the net had been chewed on by squirrels or something, they replaced the line and now everything is good. Thanks for all of the help.
  7. I don't know what the hell is wrong. I have McAfee on the comp, it says there are no threats. I even ran spybot, still nothing. It will bring up my main album page but won't load the login page. I even tried a system restore. The only other thing I can think is to reinstall windows
  8. I have played hell for the last 3 days. won't log in, page keeps timing out upon load up.
  9. having issues with photobucket right now so had to temporarily use a different host. Cleared on Tuesday afternoon, added a little BMF "silver leafing" phil

  11. got paint on the g-house, only name that seems to fit this one is "Hollywood Player"
  12. I'll have to remember that line for future reference your eyes are better than mine, I never noticed it till I just looked at the pics
  13. rims are from the kit, lugs and trim ring painted silver-chrome, center caps were from a club memeber, not sure where the originated, tires a from the catalina custom 62 kit
  14. I have enough spare kit bumpers to try the full width billet, if it doesn't work I will just do a billet grill.
  15. Next project on the bench, hoping to be finished in time for NNL Nationals. Not gonna go too crazy just nice and clean. This is my inspiration "Born in East L.A." I'm feeling testors purplicous with all chrome 1109s, possible chrome spokes and purple dishes. phil
  16. sure are thanks
  17. sweet ride Gary
  18. Here she is, just needs tags. Duplicolor pearl white with a green flake top coat. A little bit of a different build style for me but I like how it turned out.

  22. beautiful color Tom
  23. I'm in the home stretch now. Just gotta foil and install glass then its on to final assembly. phil
  24. I have finished all the waxing finally, the body has been washed of all wax residue and is now ready for foil. I tried to capture the green pearl in a video but I don't think it shows too well.
  25. Yes, new revell kit, yes I lowered it, the front I moved the axle pin hole up around 3/32", an the rear I lowered the springs until the tops of the tires touched the wheel wells. If I slap some wires and 5.20's on it it would probably lay the frame.
