  1. Beautiful! That color goes very well with the car! Thumbs up on a good job! Thanks,
  2. Nice looking Monte Carlo! That's one of my favorite years Monte. The wheels are perfect for it. I'm not a big fan of green, but the only green car I've ever done is that exact same color Thanks,
  3. Chris, It looks great. Nice Build. I absolutely LOVE that color. Thanks,
  4. Chris, did you finish the GTO? I'm catching up but I haven't seen it. Thanks,
  5. Honestly, I love it. For been a 25 million people city, (YES, 25 million) other than traffic, it is a beautiful city. It has been raining for a while so even pollution was down. Plus the people is great. I have many good friends. And the food is GREAT!!!! This was the best trip there to date. It was very nice. But I didn't have time to look for a hobby shop Thanks,
  6. Hello, Back home and instead of unloading the luggage I asked "Any packages for me?" Waiting for me were my 2 C6-Rs and my Cobra Colors order for Atomic Orange, Moon Mud primer and clear. Glad to be back. Can't wait to get back to the workbench... Thanks,
  7. That is really sweet. Very nice build! I've always liked those LeMans/IMSA prototypes. Thanks,
  8. That is gorgeous! Very nice build! Can't wait to start on mine..... Thanks,
  9. That's a very nice looking Chopper Joe! Those kits are very popular. It seems Revell has a winner there. Thanks,
  10. Hello, The list can be extensive but mostly of current builders. Is Gerald Wingrove still around? I have his book (Complete Car Modeller) and it is inspiring. Thanks,
  11. I'm the first in line, but unfortunately, on Revell, not on a GM dealer That is sooooo sweeet looking. But of course, I may be biased..... hmmmm....... How about a putting a Revell Z06 and a C6R to the mercy of a #11 blade and putty?.......... hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... Just what I needed: Another project idea and I'm not even in the country..... I'm shaking you know..... Thanks,
  12. Ken, I totally agree with Bob. I did build the Revell many years ago, but I was just a kid The Revell Magnum kit is not the best in terms of fit and accuracy. It seems to be a mix of a GTB (interiors, roof) a GTS (side louvers) and early prototypes (back bumper?). To me it also looks to be a tad smaller than the advertised 1/24 scale. Working features like the opening headlights and opening hatch makes it flimsy and fit is not the best. I have both the Revell and the Monogram and I decided to go with the Monogram one. Thanks,
  13. Jeff, That is very nice! I always liked the looks of those cars. I remember building the Testor's one a gazillion years ago when I was a kid without even painting anything.... Thanks,
  14. Looking good Terry! Mine is still in primer. It should start getting color as soon as I get back. Thanks,
  15. Hello, Cobra Colors just released the availabiltiy of Atomic Orange paint. This is the new orange in Corvettes, replacing Daytona Sunset Orange. Of course I already ordered mine Check it and many more at cobracolors.com Thanks,
  16. Len, It is a Sherline. I believe it is a 4100 but I'm not sure since it was originally sold under the SEARS Craftsman brand. Thanks, Ismael
  17. Hello, I'm in Mexico city for the week on business. In a city of 20 million people, there must a hobby shop somewhere... Thanks,
  18. That is certainly coming along looking absolutely GREAT! Keep us posted om the progress! Thanks,
  19. HA! And I'm happy to machine a cylinder.... duh! Looks great, as expected. When I grow up (I'll grow old, but never grow up) I want to be like you Thanks,
  20. Hello, I was going to install the halfshafts on a C5 Z06. Then it hit me: How about machining performance half-shafts? Longer boots and thicker shaft. It came out much better looking than the plastic one. I'll paint the boots black but will leave the shaft itself unpainted. It came out slightly shorter, but that's no problem. Anyways, you can't see them once all the suspension is assembled. Thanks,
  21. Hello, Anybody know the release date for the AMT Camaro concept? A very good friend, and one of the best modelers I have the privilege to know personally, wants one very badly. But he lives in Venezuela. I usually get kits for him and find a way to get them there :wink: Thanks,
  22. Thank you all very much for the nice comments. I really appreciate! Thanks,
  23. Ken, that is awesome! Never thought that trailer was that big. All it needs is a racing Corvette :wink: Thanks,
