Wow.. this is going to look great. Going to follow this. Glad i could inspire you to do this, i feel honored -
Hi Since i`m almost done with my Caprice stw project i`m planning my next build. It wil be a combination of Ford Panel delivery, big engine and old tired US army look Any one have a good site with pictures i can go to for Us army graphics to look at, needs to be period correct to 1955-6 I have a earlier version of this kit i`m going to use. and its also a glue bomb rescue

Here is a 396ci that is almost done for my `65 Caprice stw project
-
Have done some more on this. started piceing it together. mostly done under the car but need a few things in engine bay.
-
nice project. Btw do you have more pictures of the Thunderbird in the background?
-
got some more done to the engine. done with the belts and pullies
-
Hi I`m starting to regret modifing the belt and pullies, a real pain in the ....... But nearly done with ac compressor
-
Thanks, i appreciate your tips. I will try to use more freehand on next car. btw what type of color do you use and what type of brand. On the Dodge i used som decanted spraycan white and some blue candy from Zero. On the Corvette i used decanted spraycan white and yellow then some orange candy from Auto Air on top I`m going to bye a couple more stencils for the flames Ps that bike is looking awesome!!
-
hi i had to try another car befor i go back to the Caprice project This time i tried it on a 1963 Corvette with red base color(more difficult i think)
-
Thanks. I use a Iwata HP-C plus, on this i used a template along with some free hand. I think one clue is to get small enough templates and go real close so the flames dont look too big.....
-
Thanks guys Its my first try yes, now i want a airbrush with a smaller nozzle maybe a 0,15 or a 0,2 size. That way i can go even closer and smaller flame lick`s(is that the right word )
-
thanks for nice feedback. And that is one of the things i will try to fix, go lower on the right side
-
Hi I`ve wanted to do a "truefire" paintjob for a long time. Finally i desided to give it a shot. I see i have to do a little more on the right side to get more "flow" of the design Please let me know what you think and what i can do better next time
-
Hi I`m just about finished with interior for this car. just have to paint rubber mat and add gaspedal. Started on the engine and got it painted and ready for detailing.
-
Doing a great job so far. What type of engine are you going to use?
-
ps. forgot to answer about the tool to scribe. i used just a regular no 11 blade starting very light and more heavy once i got a line
-
Hi I`ve just painted this wagon cruiser, the color is an Alfa Romeo color (code 117) Brunello Red. First time i feel getting a decent result with a waterborne auto color (ppg) Very difficult color to capture in picture, it seems to be brown i shot a little movie also a couple of photos
-
Wow...very realistic. Great job on the weathering the house
-
I`m getting close to getting paint on this car, just some small scratches from scribing the doorlines to fill.
-
Did some more to this car. Changed all the moldings to styrene strips(was brass or copper- dont remember). Think i might redo the upper part of the rear one Since i`m in wagon mode i had to check out another i have further down the line , a 1953 Ford Woody
-
Nice work
-
thanks guys. This have been a handfull..puhhh i started this years ago and hopefully my skill has raised so i can do this car justice and get it done I think i might go with the engine from the 60 Ford kit Where can i find some Astro supreme wheels?
-
Hi I`m trying to finish this along with my `65 Chevy Impala project This is a project started along time ago with a TKM body(bad) and a `56 Ford kit from amt, i thought i should finish it this time This is how far i`ve come
-
Yes , time will show Have to scribe the doorlines also
-
Hi i had to do some major surgery to this, the chassis and tub didn`t fit very good. And it was a little short,narrow and crooked. So i swapped the roof over to plastic body instead, now everything fits nice
