  1. Looks really cool. I used to see those cars all around when I was growing up on L.I.
  2. Very cool 'Cuda.
  3. I once had a call that spoofed my own number in the caller ID. I didn't answer it. What were they trying to do, make it look like I was calling myself? Anyway, Social Security would never call you up. The would notify you in the mail.
  4. Thanks for that tip. I was thinking of using the wire wheels. I certainly check that out.
  5. Here is my photo booth which is also my paint booth. I got that nice 1200 lumen LED worklight for it a few months ago. I get better pictures with it too. Only when I take pictures I put in white plotter papaer for a background: And for painting:

    '71 GTX

    Looks really nice. I built one of those once. I think I posted it here.
  9. That's cool We never really see models of the Canadian versions.
  10. Nicely done. I've never seen a weathered low rider.
  11. One of the worst cars ever made is coming along very nicely. It will probably be higher quality than the 1:1 car. Cool subject. looks like a nice kit too.
  12. It was my girlfriend that told me that joke. LOL.
  13. Well, I've had this kit since about '99. It was originally $25. So when I decided it was time to build it I researched the car on the net and came across the kit on Ebay for about $150. And I also came across a PE set for it. I sent away for the PE set and got it in four days. Amazing for a collector kit that's not in production any more. Thanks for looking. Here is the box art first: Here is a walk around the chassis with the engine and transaxle installed: Here's closer up on the engine. My ref photos had red plug wires with a white sleeve. I just dipped the wires in white paint:
  14. Years ago, like the mid 80's someone at work gave me these prints that I scanned in:
  15. Oh, a wise guy! Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk.
  16. Here's one: Q: What kind of bees give milk? A: Boobees
  17. Very nice build and I like the way you did the phantom body over the chassis shot.
  18. That's an interesting build. You don't see any of those around in any scale.
  19. Very nice woody!
  20. That engine is just looking awesome!
  21. I painted it it with a metallic blue with a solid blue basecoat. The kit includes some PE. The kit box: Some WIP of the interior: Finished: Thanks for looking.
