Stef that looks awesome! I REALLY like your tail light treatment and the hood scoops! How did you do the tail light?

Thanks Kevin, that's what I'm looking for!

Thanks DJ! I will keep that in mind!

I’m looking for a front clip for the Revell Henry J. Any condition will work as long as both headlight areas are good, have lots to trade! Thanks!

Really cool!

Very nice!

Nice! Looks awesome!!

That is really cool!

Awesome! Beautiful job on the Vega!

Thanks!

Those seat covers look really good! How did you do that?

That's really cool!

Nice! Looks great!

Looks awesome! Nice clean build.

Thanks guys ! Great tips! The spray cans no longer spray, I’ve tried soaking the nozzles in lacquer thinner, and acetone among others and they won’t unclog, I’m assuming it’s down further in the can. The cans I have are the crappy( my opinion) cans that spray upside down, I always turned my old style cans upside down and sprayed until no paint came out and then cleaned the tip, never a problem. I’m going to get some mason jars and give those a try, from now on I most likely will stick to Tamiya spray and air brush, I’m tired of wasting money on crappy spray cans.

Hey all a quick question, what are you guys using to store decanted spray paint? I used some glass jars with a screw on plastic lid but apparently it didn’t seal well and the paint kind of went bad pretty quick. Any suggestions or tips?

br67 I would be interested in that, I will PM you!

Two fantastic builds!

You are right Tony, some of the MPC kits are pretty challenging to get together and this was no exception! It’s a shame cause they have some good subject matter!

Wow that is very different than the kit! Looks awesome! That's interesting that it worked that way with the model coming first then the real car!

Thanks guys, appreciate the comments!

I just finished this a few days ago. It’s the MPC Ohio George Multi Maverick. This was a little bit difficult to get together, the frame was warped and a lot of it is just “finicky “! I went with the longer wheel base and glued everything in position as I will not be swapping back and forth! From looking online this is not very accurate kit to the real car, at least from the info I found. It sat much better on the frame until I put the windows and interior tin in, I have another of these so if I build another I may do some different things with it. Let me know what you guys think!

If you ever get a chance check out the air show in Reading PA. I have been there twice and it is really a good air show with tons of displays and usually a dozen old cars. They have tanks, motorcycles and other assorted military vehicles driving around with a lot of men and women in uniform and 40’s clothing with big bands playing etc!!! Very cool! This past year they had a P-63 king cobra flying along with a P-40 and several Mustangs making low and fast passes over they runway! They are also restoring a P-61 black widow!

Perry PM me if you can please! Phil (fords-100)

Tried to PM and said you couldn’t receive any messages, I’m interested in the tires, let me know if all of them are still available! Thanks!
