  1. That came out really well, good job.
  2. I found this picture with a quick Google search.
  3. That looks really good. Would the Imex '58 Cadillac boot fit?
  4. That's wicked cool! Mini vans have a lot more potential than most people think. I built a pro touring style one a while back.
  5. I'm excited to see McNally back and I love the 2nd gen Escalade. I just happened to pick up 2 copies of this kit last week. I checked the box, and sure enough it says molded in orange. I opened one of them and it's molded in white, just like your kit. I guess using the ESV on the box art wasn't the only mistake.
  6. Nice! We need more Cadillacs around here.
  7. That's just cool.
  8. I started on the frame. I'm going to try to make a buck so I can heat up the square stock and curve it over the axle, we'll see how that works out. I still have quite a bit of body work to do, but I got the first coat of primer on and I got the wheels and tires painted. The rear wheels/tires are still a little too tall so I might have to do some creative sanding to get them to fit. I'm not sure which grill I want to use, so I went ahead and prepped them both. I got started on the interior. The interior is definitely the weak point in this kit, hopefully I can think of something to add more detail. And I've narrowed it down to 1 of these 3 colors. More next time.
  9. I just moved to Utah a couple months ago and I would really like to attend the GSL, but I can't figure out where it will be. The only address I'm seeing on the website is for the museum, is it at the museum?
  10. That's real nice. The coyote looks right at home.
  11. I made this with a resin Jimmy Flintstone body and a Revell STS-V donor kit and used some wheels that are a little less cartoonish.
  12. That's wicked nice!
  13. Thanks, it's the AMT '65 Lincoln Continental 3 in 1 kit.
  14. Thanks, I was going to paint it black, but I changed my mind at the last minute.
  15. I had this one in my stash for about 15 years. I lowered it and used white walls out of my parts box. I couldn't get the hood to shut with the engine in, so I took out the engine and glued the hood shut.
  16. Those look great!
  17. Thanks. A good friend of mine built 1 of the 3 pre-production kits, I had to get his advice on getting the hood and fenders lined up.
  18. Thanks. I really like rustoleum paint, it lays down smooth. Some people don't like it, but it works well for me.
  19. I just finished up this Galaxy '47 Fleetmaster. I used the lowered suspension and the custom engine parts. The paint is Rustoleum Harbor blue with a flat clear coat.
  20. https://www.ebay.com/itm/1-25-51-chevy-2-door-coupe-resin-body/163515139466?hash=item261243058a:g:uGUAAOSwaEdcUR82 I just ran across this guy selling them on eBay. He also has a 4 door and I just ordered the '52 conversion kit.
  21. Outstanding! I like the colors.
