  1. Looks like its going to be wild. I think I have parts of a couple of c-cabs. Starts me think'n and I won't copy any ones stuff. Maybe alitte, just alittle. Looking forward to seeing it done.
  2. Your roadster is lookin good. I think I like these better,in certain ways, easier to build, headlight bar one piece with headlights molded to the bar. I can drop these bars with a steel axle[AMT"s} alittle luck, and some warm to hot water, so much easier than the new Revell 32's, don't know way they couldn't have moulded headlights and bar in one piece. Could have had two one with stock on dropped bar and one with the littles also, it's not like they can't afford it. Waiting to se it finished, I like'm as low as I can get them.
  3. Now that's cool. I just love to see the new stuff being built. Great engine detail. great everything else and I'm more into traditional stuff, but I'll be looking forward to see how this 32 turns out.
  4. Thanks bobss396, I will give that a try. Any tips on mounting the assembly to the fenders without messing up the paint. What apoxy' 5-min' do you use. Thanks again. I think its time for me to get one of those fixed magnifiers also, gettin old a xxxxh.
  5. Who has the trick for getting the stock headlights to set correctly on headlight bar. And what the best CAglue out there. I used Zap a gap some time back, but don't have any. Do pin these from the bar up to headlites and the bar to fenders looks lik a place to really mess up a paint job. I added pins to go in fender awhile back, but haven't done one in awhile. LOOKING FOR A BETTER WAY. Fat fingers and stiff to, you know gett'in old sucks! Oh using super glue also, and crazy glue. and Testors super glue, none seem to set very quick. Anyone who has any tricks tips or any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
  6. I've said this before you've got the touch. Keep doing thoses bodies for Rep&Min. of Maryland, so thoses of us that can't can.
  7. Really like that pearl white. very clean, good lookin.
  8. Looks great. I really enjoy it when builders give details on their builds. Where you got your paint, wheels, etc. Since I come and go in models its hard to keep up with the new stuff. And by the way I just heard yesterday that the Micheals in this part of town has closed and I haven't looked in the "let your fingers do the walking pages" yet to see if theres one around here somewhere.
  9. I'd like to thank Lyle Willits for the onfo. on where and who to get the grille parts that I was wondering about. Sooo... thank you Lyle, much appreciated.
  10. You need to be crowned the king of scratch building & detailing. Iwas wondering if you have xray vision? Absolutly{ can't work spell check} fantastic work.
  11. Well this Merc looks like it will win as the monthly pic on another forum, and so far, rightly so. Great look, I be watching to see how it ends.
  12. Looks great as all yours do. I believe this is the first Revell 32 sedan I've seen chopped.
  13. I really like your Pontiac, also your Merc. Thanks for some of the details on the Pontiac build.
  14. This 32 has it all. Whats not to like. Very clean and together. *****'in, I know were not to use that word.
  15. I'm noy sure if this question belongs here, but. Did you scratch build the radiator cap and Ford emblem. With the release of the new 32 sedan, those are the pieces I need to do a resto. rod. If these are available I could really use them. Any help would be much appreciated. Your before 32 sedan is great looking, before Revell's came out. And really good paint.

  17. Your 39 really turned out nice, lots to look at.
  18. Yes, this guys hit it right on. Great looking.
  19. Please, after almost three yrs. to build. Seriously, most of the stuff I've started building sets for that long, maybe longer. Looks ****'in, can't say that word here.
  20. The guy can paint! I've seen a few of you builds, like em all.
  21. How come I don't see a gap between your front fenders, just in frt. of the running boards. Like I seem to have on all that are still not finished. The gap is between the frame and frt. fender. All help excepted. Buy the way great build as always.
  22. You are what your name means. But you sure do fantastic wrk., I should be so talented. Hope I'm alive to see it finished, just kidding.
  23. Your scratch building skills are fantastic. Though I really don't like big wheels, I guess I'm just to old school. I've seen quite a few of your builds your work is real good, I couldn't begin to build like you do.
  24. I've visited your site, anything you would like to post is O.K with me, since I haven't posted any pics.
