  1. Correct....but a willys or rambler motor just doesn't work!
  2. If your talking lime ice....love it! My merc is tutoned in that!!
  3. Love Foose and his style! This '65 is loosely based on Mothers '67 done by foose. I do not know if the red and black will work here ....Whatcha think?? I love these wheels..gonna try to paint the centers/spokes.....
  4. AGREED!! 429's and SOCHS are harder to find....But the 392 is more period correct. and if you go blue oval you could call it The HEMI HUNTER
  5. Bitchin build....the flake in the paint will "shrink" with some more clear....I say stuff in a 429 or a blown 392 (great source is the '41 street rod willys..)
  6. HOT ROD!!!!! The angle chop is totally sick!!!!!
  7. I 95 S and a 4 pack of red bull will getcha here!!!
  8. "on location" is an acronym for sleeping in on Monday!!!!!
  9. No there are a few of us down here in naples....never heard of a club or group.. http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=14376 Tonio 7, Jay McMinn and myself... what do you model? Mike
  10. To guess that color over the net...wont happen! to get close you need a chip book($$) or a trip to a auto wholesale paint supplier...they have the chips and that will get you to your color.Now go to your lhs and pick your paint or the auto paints..your choice! good luck!
  11. O YEAH!!!!!!!!!! Howsa bout an underside photo so we can see the exhaust routing?

    '50 Chevy COE

    I love the COE idea....great job!!!! IMHO lose that ugly blower scoop....I switched to a tri-power on the last 421 I did...
  13. Go with green and black......the reverse of that gorgeous '32 ! whatcha gonna do about Power??
  14. And stuff in a blown 392...... little on the frame....needs plumbing and brakes....
  15. not a krylon fan BUT....duplacolor has just what ya want...it is lacquer though. Its called "Clear Effex". its in a clear base you shoot it on your base in 1 or 2 light coats then shoot regular clear over. The roof on this magnum is alive!...The pickup is more subtile...mainly due to the base color! then again go to michaels or jo ann and pickup some "Jacquard " brand pearls(embossing powder), mix a pinch of your choice into your favorite clear , follow above instructions for a wow paint job....I mixed the #686 pearl into clear and used it as a blend on my '41 street rod fade..
  16. issue is those are 6 lug 12" wheels.......
  17. Perfect...add a curved paper from top back to lower middle (contrasting background) make a quick softbox for up top!!!!!!
  18. Thats simple.......IT's The next one on the bench.........
  19. I saw a lincoln with a v12 flattie on Barret Jackson last week!! this is lookin killer....a little powerwagon taste???
  20. Better than I could do!! Great Job!!!! how about a copy 1:1 on your stencil???
  21. WE SEE IT HARRY...............DON'T YOU?????????
  22. Thanx John, I normally like to use 2 scrims as reflectors when shooting under bright sun middays here. On these shots I was lazy..just a flat board to shoot on and a little fill flash..and with these as WIP photos I'm not too worried about this batch.I normally like to shoot in Aperature mode...and these were shot wide open and I ran out of room..and thats what photoshop is for!!!
  23. SWEET!!!!!!!!! Could you try a plain background so we can see all the details of this one...all the others get me way too distracted
