  1. Nice work so far!!?
  2. This mornings arrival...yup,! another Dodge Van!!?‍♂️
  3. Progressing along chassis up on wheels and the interior is complete and glued to the chassis,just the small stuff left.?
  4. Nice build!?,i have a few in my stash but yet to build one.
  5. Back with an update,the glass is painted, Fujimi includes mask for the windows except they're not the same size and some areas show the frosted area not painted?‍♂️ The front seats are painted,added seatbelts i was planning to go with a tan interior but decided to go with black/white instead. I added detail master speakers,to the interior to add some detail,embossing powder for carpet and added seatbelts/latches to the back seat Still need to add a 3rd brake light.
  6. Back on the bench with a new build,i believe in North America it was called a Infiniti Q35,the kit can be built 2 ways.The Nismo version doesn't interest me so stock version it is,no left hand dash.? It's painted Testor's Insignia blue,didn't like the molded in mesh on the front grill so i grinded it out before painting,some specks in the paint so i need to polish them out. I added wheel weightS and valve stems to the tires. The chassis/exhaust and suspension painted in various Tamiya ,Vallejo and Mr.hobby colors
  7. I'm looking forward to seeing how you get the headlights to pop up,following this build?
  8. I was planning on ordering some of those in the future,if i remember correctly you wet the decal and place the decal over the metal plate?.
  9. My local hobbyshop was shorted on his order again,he only got 6.
  10. Thanks!,it's not the easiest kit to build and there is a few areas i could've done better.
  11. Yes, i had a small gap between the firewall and body,but it is not to noticeable unless you look at the car head on.I realized after i superglued the bumper it sits low, i plan on trying to take it apart gently and regluing it up higher.Also take note that the chrome strips in the interior and exterior need lots of sanding to fit flush and sand down the underside of the trunk to get it to sit flush with the body.
  12. Thanks for the comment and you're probably correct. Thanks so much!.
  13. Appreciate the kind words.? thx so much!. Definately,i think i was caught off guard with alot of the extra work needed,i also have the convertible kit,if and when i build it i'll be better prepared for sure!!
  14. Thanks i'm glad you like it.? It's funny how cars and music can trigger memories,thanks for the comment. thx!?
  15. Thanks,there is a couple things i could've done better. I think that's what i'm going to do instead of gluing it shut. I agree,there is quite a nice variety of colors available in the sixties.
  16. Glad you like it,i really like it as well. Thanks for the comment!? Appreciate the comment.?
  17. Thanks!,i was thinking that myself. Thank you!.? Thank you sir!.
  18. It's a nice kit in spots,but all the interior/exterior chrome trim needed lots of sanding to fit.?
  19. Thanks so much!,i was aiming for nice low key look.
  20. I'm in Canada,so depending where you are they should be available.
  21. Went to the Hobbyshop for the Dodge van it's going to be a parts donor for all the vintage vans i've been buying and found the others on the shelf.?
  22. I can't be 1000% certain ,but it looks like what you're looking for.
  23. The working lights really standout on this build!,great work!!?
