  1. Really good job on this one Brian,
  2. I posted some progress pictures, of the Mustang and Falcon. that I am simultaneously building. Why I dont Know. Other than The long years of glue sniffing are finally catching up. http://public.fotki.com/Gabriel12/tobys-mustang/
  3. My condolences on the loss of Ivan. Could anyone post some pictures of some of his work?
  4. About 3 weeks ago I saw one of the caddy kit's, I was able to pick it up and examine it closely. It is very well done as you would expect, However what surprised Me was the weight of it compared to a regular kit. this one is as heavy as an actual red brick.
  5. Looking for some wheels like those. My son is into the fast and furryus cars. and He would like to build the chevelle,I am very proud, That he would like to take time off from all that killing. He's been doing while playing those video games.
  6. The AMT 1966 Mercury Park Lane Hardtop has some real close to that. if you need them,I have an extra set,and You can have them.
  7. Hey Jeff in the next remaster could you also address the rear window issue. "window will need to be modified. While the 66's window trim lays flat and has a little hic-up in the metal surrounding it, the 67-68 window trim curves inward with the window being slightly recessed." this would make an already good casting even better.I am currently working on this issue with mine.the body appears to have no defined area for a rear window and so far I have added some strip plastic surrounding the frame to give me a space to bond to.
  8. Does Bill have any of the Machined Aluminum wheel's and resin tires.that he might release as well?
  9. I have the 1967 mustang in progress, as well as a 1965 falcon. only the mustang is from motor city. I "modificated" Haha mine. it is coming along really well.here is the link to check it out. http://public.fotki.com/Gabriel12/tobys-mustang/
  10. Wow, Those press machine pictures bring back some memories of my early work days.I worked for a company owned by Mercedes Benz. that made all sorts of Injection molded parts for the computer /electronics industry. We had presses just like those, and larger.A few years ago I happened to pass by the plant location and it was now a Popcorn manufacturing facility, How wierd is that?
  11. I have a club member who is casting this car in resin
  12. Active builder when time permits

    1. Termite

  14. I am the Ranch Dressing of Mechanic's ,I am good on everything.

  15. Question Does the Modelhaus produce any kits that are ready to go? or is everything have to be made one at a time as it is ordered. also do they sell at shows?.
  16. Very Impressive Model,The machined parts and the photoetch look Fantastic.very detailed instructions as well.I am curious as to what this would cost.
  17. Guys, I have lost my dog too. About a month ago she died in my arms while on my way to the vet. It was a terrible tradgedy and I miss her so much. I understand what it is like Not to have a greeting when I get home, or my little friend to play ball with. and all those other crazy things She used to do. At only three pounds she took up a lot of space in my world. http://public.fotki.com/Gabriel12/cafecita/
  18. Hey Virgil your model is looking Excellente' the colors are just fantastic. One thing, You need to flip the Master cylinder and brake booster around or all your brake fluid is Gonna leak out.
  19. Good luck, and wishing you a speedy recovery.
  20. I have seen some springs used in ballpoint pens that have that tight pattern and are flexible you might look in that direction
  21. This is a resin that I have been wanting to build for some time now hope you like it http://public.fotki.com/Gabriel12/tobys-mustang/
