I have heard of fishing lure being used, there is a flat type of lure that is long and comes in colors "like black" available at local big box stores Gabriel

Nice work, Are you thinking of having that resin cast? Gabriel

nice job so far it looks a little familiar to me one of my many project's http://public.fotki.com/Gabriel12/henry-j/ Gabriel

She is Beautiful! Gabriel.

that is one Sweet ride Gabriel.

I think they are a good start, although they kind of blend together causing some kind of confusion with my to my eye's. maybe two different colors like orange and yellow would help?IMHO

This is one nice setup

I see some mistakes, but I also see some decent work for a first time build at this level. I would suggest that you teardown this model again, or start fresh and build the model with a little more patience and care. treat each part as an individual model and try to get that part as perfect as you can, work with clean hands, and when you paint use care to keep the model as clean as possible, also use the same paint type the same brand. if you use Enamel Or Laquer always stick with one (dont mix). Get a large cardboard box to spray your model as kind of a paint booth, if you paint outside, as most us do it will help keep the dust off while drying. Gabriel

Model Car Garage makes a set. I would be careful the last set ,I bought a set from him it had only had one side. outside door handle I e-mailed MCG and was provided a supplement opposite door handle for my model. my best advice would be not to sand off the door handles and you will be fine. Gabriel

That is a super nice build! where did the grille come from? Gabriel

You could look at some websites like Summit or Holley Carburetor to view available carbs and get some Ideas and just copy what they look like Gabriel

here are some new pics http://public.fotki.com/Gabriel12/jo-han-cuda/ hope you like them Gabriel.

if anyone has one could you post some pictures? Gabriel.

I dont think I would consider that engine for an american Icon like the 55 I would however consider a fly swatter for that bug Gabriel

very cool Gabriel.

I think I have A spare tailight. If you need it?

In the issue I have the #134 the pages got tossed around and went from pg 24 trailer build to pg 27-28 ferrari then back to pg 25-26 trailer on to pg 31-32 Harrys work then back to pg 29 ferrari then harrys work finishes up after pg 36 Definately interesting reading it a good thing I dont cuss anymore Gabriel.

Happy Birthday Harry I wish you many more to come Gabriel.

Oh Wow I Like them all. Gabriel.

Model Car Garage has a PE set of hinges that are just sweet to work with the only problem is they are all one size a original looking 32 ford has a longer hinge on the bottom Jairus illustrated and Greg had the Article in MCM that showed how to scratchbuild some out of brass strip & wire they were not extremely hard to do but I am sure it could take a few tries before you get them to line up right

It looks very good Lyle On picture #3 the Boot looks a little ill fitting in that picture. Does that boot come with the model? do you get the top too? Gabriel

I have met darryl at our Local model contests when he was Photographing model's for the magazine my sympathy goes out to his family at this difficult time. Gabriel.

Im 44 and have been modeling since I was about 7/8, my parents did'nt mind my hobby until I spilled a bottle of chrome silver on the carpet. my wife is another story, See I have about 300 kits and she wants me to build all of them, without collecting anymore before I Die. Gabriel.

Hi James, welcome to the Forum board. You have some very good work goin on. I was glad to see it Thanks Gabriel.

I Received a resin Teardrop trailer from a resin caster Who uses the handle RESINBLOB on ebay the trailer was cleanly cast with very few pinholes/voids on the underside of the peice It is very good quality some of the best I have seen if you are looking for something like this or one of the hundred or so peices Glenn make's thanks Gabriel
