Yea for most part i build everything except boats and planes , but the lowriders i beleave to be my strong subject in this hobby ! I was having a hard time posting on here but now i got my photobucket set-up to share here so i hope to be able to share as much as i can ! I have a great liking for wild street driven type of cars , i try to think that if i had the money to build it in 1:1 it would be able to cruz it aswell as show it off !

thanks for the feed back fellas ! the driver came from some great freinds at http://stores.ebay.com/COLLECTORSCHOICETOYS-HOBBIESINC ! check these guys out for your hobby needs , not only do have the new stuff on hand ready to ship , but they are also builders ! you get 5 drivers , and the fit into most 1/24 1/25th rides !

WELL THIS WONT DRIFT VERY GOOD BUT IT WOULD BE 1 HELL OF RIDE ! I HAVE BUILT A TON OF TUNERS ! LET ME DIG INTO MY PHOTOBUCKET AND FIND SOME TO SHARE !

OK ITS BEEN A LONG TIME SINCE I POSTED UP OVER HERE ! I HAD PROBLEMS POSTING PICS AND I GUESS IT GOT ME P O ED ! BUT I'M BACK TO TRY IT OUT AGAIN ! HERE IS MY LATEST BUILD ! IT WAS FINISHED A FEW MONTH BACKS HERE ARE SOME PICS ! THANKS FOR LETTING ME SHARE !

THIS BUILD CAM E OUT VERY CLEAN ! SIMPLE ! VERY GOOD JOB !

Thanks for the coments fellas ! As for the color choice i am unsure at this point , and to the comment about the comet chassie ! I was going to go that route but i am proving a ponit with this build to a few NONE BUILDER , PROMO COLLERTORS , that are in my area ! I have built a few cars that started life as a promo or a curside kit and went full detailed ! This car was snatch up just to cut up and build ! Too many great kits are just sitting in someones closet, or basement collecting dust when they should being built ! I am good freinds with 2 guys that dont build but have tons of great stuff ! I love to see there faces when i show them that the nife has cut up another great peice of plastic ! So keeping with the promo chassie and cutting it and detailing it is to show them that a PROMO CAN MAKE A GREAT BUILT MODEL ! LOL !

Hey Kenny sorry i just got a chance to set down and check out the board before i head off to work yet again ! LOL ! Yes this took 1st place at the Heartland Nationals on the 22nd of june ! The truck class had a handful of nice builds and i was surprized to grab frist ! Thanks for asking !

Nice looking start on this caddy ! And FYI for you and UMDUMBWHITEBOY This kit is a 90 Fleetwood ! This kit make great builds ! and heres a 90 coupe devlle that i built ! Fleetwoods and coupe's have diffent roof treatments and chrome package ! Heres is a fleetwood that i built ! I didn't know the diffance my self but then someone showed me the diffance and know i share with you ! I added the pics so you could see the diffance instead of being a donkey about ! And the wheel choice looks ok on there and really alot better then the donk set up ! Oh and just to add 2 other styles that this kit could be built as here are these 2 ! LOL! And if that wasn't enough to make you say HEY I'LL TRY THAT ! Here's my newest project's ! Please keep use posted on this build ! No matter what the rights or wrongs are as long as your building your doing what the hobby is ment for !

Man i am not a vette fan very much but this build right just blows me away ! I like everything thats been done ! I have had 2 or 3 of these kits but just to kitbash for other projects but after seeing this i think i am in need of 1 to build up ! Again very very well done LOVE IT !

Hey guys thanks for all kind words on this build ! To respond to some of the statements that have been posted ! Mr. BIGGS is a great freind of mine ! He is also my Pres. for the M.C.B.A. in which i was voted in in 2006! My builds only look the way they do cause i LOVE THE HOBBY and your guys replies weather you like me idea or not helps keep me moving forward ! Say someone said WOW THAT IS COOL ! Then i'll keep it in build but if someone said THAT DONT FIT THE FLOW ! Then i step back take a second look and if i feel its ture i'll change it ! Alot of projects are builds that i dream up off the top of my head so input works out great for me ! And for the kind man that said that my talent level was the same as Bills ! LOL ! I dont know about that ! LOL! Man my best built kit that bill did was the drop top GTO ! Bills builds are art work ! I am just a hobbiest still learning ! And following builds that MR. BIGGS, and Bill have done just keep me tring ! Most of my talent is in LOWRIDERS but i enjoy building all types of cars ! And now to answer some questions! The wheels came off some DUB CITY kits and since the kits come with 2 sets of wheels i cut the lip off 1 set and added them to the rear for the width and then painted the centers GUN METAL gray ! The pin strip work is just that ! I use gel ink pens on a lot of builds for the detail ! The more you work with the easier they are to use ! I didnt always get them that stright and even ! LOL! Here's just a look at a build i did in LOWRIDER STYLE ! Thanks a lot fellas for the replies !

Not to hijack this thread but i would love info on the 70 coupe ! Here is a 70 2dr wagon i made up in 06 !

And here are some out side shoots ! I hope you guys take some intrest in what i build ! If you guys ask Gregg or have issiues of model cars where my kits have been in print you'll see this is the type of builder i am ! Thanks for letting me share another completed build !

The project pis or in the other topic but here are the finished pics !

Hey fellas worked like a mad man all week on this AND ITS READY TO SHOW ! BUt you guys only get a sneak peek ! I post up all the finished pic in the UNDER GLASS topic ! Hope you guys enjoy

Well I wont be getting this finished in time ! I had a very bad day around here ! Frist off i sprayed the chassie and it never dried for some reason ! I used a wal mart brand flat black but IT SUCKS ! So i knew i had to re finish that so i finished the body work off and started to add color , Then added my pen work then started to clear it when my boy took off towards the street to see the ice cream van i instantly dropped everything in my hands and took off after him , I must have scared him cause he turned to look at me a fell and rough the ###### out of his hands , knees , and his little face ! So after i claimed him down and washed him up i went out to see what the damage was ! LOOKS LIKE I HAVE TO STRIP IT AND REDO IT ! But here's where it was ! Man i really wanted to have this completed by the 21st but I will now turn my focus to my other project i want to finish up !

Man 118 views but only 5 replies ! What do you guys want to see in order to leave feed back ? HOW ABOUT THESE! Just a few updated pics after a few hours each night this week at the bench ! Trying to get this complete by June 21st ! Can you guys see the progress yet ? Custom hood custom door panels custom floor pan custom dash custom made MINI SUPERCHARGED 460 WITH DAUL THORTTEL BODY INTAKE ! LOL! If any of you guys on that know me you know some of the stuff i create is just from my own twisted mind having fun with plastic !

Man you bring out the knife for this build ! BUT I AN'T MAD AT YA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anyone can build but only a few can create ! And what you got going on here is a true project ! Best of luck to you hope it all works out .

Started off with 2 monogram duallie kits And i cut them into 2 making 1 of them a crew cab and the other 1 i made a single cab duallie I ended up making the single cab into a short bed duallie for a good freind of mine ** MODELTECH** I just couldn't see wasteing the other kit so i did a quick glue , mud , sand , job then sent it on its way ! Heres my real project ! Its another build i want to finish up in the next few weeks . And why just stop with custom making a new cab ! I got a ton more done already i am just waiting on the batteries to charge up on the camera ! As soon as thats been done i'll post up more pics. Hope you all like !

Was going to leave the B in place ! Instead of making this a 2dr long window wagon i wanted it to look like a curry all where the side windows would slide back to let air in and not roll down like a wagon !

And just for the fun of it i left the most part of the chassie alone so to kinda prove that this started life as a promo / craftsman kit and not a resin item ! I hope the next rare promo or kit you guys pick up is being bought to build ! Enjoy your money fellas cause if you buying stuff just to collect dust your not enjoying this hobby !

Started to build the motor so i can see what kinda of room i had when i started to under hood items and make sure the hood hinges cleared the valve covers ! Here is how its been sitting for about 4 months ! I got into some family things and put this back in the box but its back out and i want to get it together in less then 3 weeks !
