  1. Great News!!! I have attended the last 2 years and the place definitly wasnt meeting up to the needs anymore. Cant wait for April.....
  2. quick update on the 61 impala interior is about done.
  3. The main reason I come here, I think, is to support the hobby and other fellow modelers. I learn a lot form all the builders everywhere. Although I post more on some forums then others I still try to stop in here and there to check stuff out. I curently hang out on about 4 boards.
  4. Heres a little more progress on this one. Im going for that tradditional look. Sorry for the bad pics, havent had a chance to recharge the batteries......
  5. wow thats a beautiful build!!
  6. Great work, cant wait to see it all together.
  7. Billy is correct. Most pictures that are used in the mags need to be as high resolution as possible......
  8. Sorry man this is the only one i bought since i dont build many bikes, I only ordered one set.

  10. Heres a new one....... I decided to start a couple of new projects. This is one of them not much to show but you can see where its going. It the lindberg 61 impala kit. Its not the exact blue I wanted but once i get it all cleaned up I think it will look good. More to come.....
  11. Whats up everyone.... I got this as a gift for christmas. Ive had my eye on it for a while and finally decided to get to it. I tried some new paint on this one but wasnt too happy with the result. I need to wet sand it anyway before I continue so Ill see how it works out. Well, I decided to go with a bit of a wider tire so heres what i had to do. Still needs some work. Stock tire. new and improved tire also had to modify a new rear rim Well thats it for now. Give me some feedback!!!
  12. Can you guys post some pics of what everything looks like?
  13. wow sweet chopper. top notch build sweet motor setup
  14. nice build sweet shop too
  15. where did you pick those up?? those would come in handy for a project i was thinking about.....
  16. Not too much to report on this one. But here is a little something. Motor has been dropped in. Front suspension is in place and cylinders are in. Got a little work done on the pumps too. Give me some feedback!!!
  17. I got the front and rear wheel and the tire form him. Nice quality and considering its from Brasil I got it pretty quickly. If I am not mistaken he makes parts specificly for your order, not in advance. Pretty good guy to deal with.
  18. I also work in the basement which gets pretty humid. Lately its been pretty tough trying to paint anything. I did a little experiment the other day though. My friend is a body guy and he told me to keep the booth warm when painting. So....I have a small fan type heater, I turned it on in the direction of my paint booth and let it warm up the area for a few minutes and it actually brought down the humidity about 10% which put me into a safer painting climate. At this point I turn on the fan to pull out the fumes but keep the heater pointing at the booth. I cleared a few parts and a body and luckily no fogging and everything came out very good. If you can take the heat, its not that bad. My next thing is to get a dehumidifier, but they are pretty expensive so I dont know if its worth the expense.
  19. WOW that is a top notch build. Great work on all the body mods. That can end up in a big headache but you brought it all together nicely.
  20. Thanks Gregg. It was a pleasure meeting you to!! I finally made my way over here. Let me know if you want to work anything out with that bad boy.
  21. Ok this one is just about done. Its a pretty simple kit. The only issues I have with this is the doors dont close very well and the trunk gets stuck against the rear window. I will probably open up the car and adjust all the screws to see if that helps with the little issues. Ill get some better pics once the sun is fully out. Anyways heres some pics. Let me know what you think!! Heres some outdoor shots.
