  1. Oh that's just too funny!!!
  2. That looks more like the right bottom, Ed!! Yes, I really need to get mine done, too...I will just as soon as I finish up the Roth inspired hotrod I've been working on for the past couple of months. It's almost done... Later,
  3. Nice work, Ed!! The brake lines and fuel lines are a nice touch!! Thanks for sharing,
  4. Very clean build!! The paint and BMF work looks GREAT!! Thanks for sharing,
  5. Very nice stocker, William!! The paint, BMF and all of the details look GREAT!! Keep up the good work,
  6. Neal, If you send me the 1:1 hotrod and the model, I'll build the model for you EXACTLY like the car. Keep at it, my friend. You'll get it done. Later,
  7. Looks right, Clay!! Actually, I thought that you needed a longer driveshaft, not a shorter one, or I would have advised you to cut the existing one to the length you need and pin it back together with a piece of brass rod. Either way, it looks good!! The side benefit of using the aluminum tubing, as you've seen, is that you also get a perfectly round driveshaft, unlike the one in the kit. Keep up the good work and the posts!! Later,
  8. Yeah...but you and a few others know why I've been slow to get it done...
  9. Your little digger is really coming along nicely, Bernard!! That bright yellow rail really stands out, emphasizing just how stark those things were!! That is as raw as they come...there's not as much as an extra bolt holding that little hotrod together!! Sit down, strap in, shut up and hang the f*** on!! We're goin' for a ride, baby!!! Later,
  10. Sure, no problem!!
  11. Congratulations, Tito!! Well, I guess you won't be building any models for a week or two
  12. Another GREAT build, Brendan!! I can't wait to see it at the NNL West!! I'll leave those decaled monstrosities for you to build!! Decals are NOT my friends!! Later,
  13. It's all in the camera, my young friend...it's all in the camera...
  14. Now there's a lot of great looking models on display!! Great job, guys!! I really like the Gulf colored Ford!!
  15. Cool little tuner, Michael!! Those beefy exhaust tips look really good out back!! Later,
  16. That looks pretty good, Ed!! From the pics, it looks like you got the interior color right, too!! I'm hoping to get mine painted tomorrow. I was pretty busy today trying to finish another build for an upcoming show, and ended up having to strip and repaint the interior. Good thing it's a small car... Later,
  17. Rollin, That's a GREAT color combination on your Chevy!! What's on TV??
  18. Clay, First, that Avanti looks GREAT sitting on that red trailer!! On to the business at hand; if the roll pan will work with the trailer hitch, that's the way I'd go. It fits better with the other custom parts you're using. For the wheels; unless you're going to tub the bed, you won't find too many wheels that'll fill those big openings and not be too wide. If you want, I'll send you a set of these: All four tires and wheels are the same size. The wheels measure out at about 23". With the tires mounted, they're as tall as the 23" Pegasus Chrome T's that I'm using on my truck, but they're only 0.350" wide. They fit up under the rear fenders without tubbing the bed. They also come with disc brakes for all four wheels. Let me know if you want them and I'll drop them in the mail. Yes, you'll have to to tub the bed to get the Pegasus 23" Chrome T's to fit...unless you narrow them... Later,
  19. WOW!! Bill, you are the man!! That's some crazy stuff!!
  20. You're very welcome!! I got the pics from eBay. It's a great source for detail shots of old and new parts! Your detail work on the injection is AWESOME!! Keep up the GREAT work and the posts!! The headers are looking right on the money!! This is going to be one really cool old gasser!!
  21. Very nice, clean build!! The color combination looks GREAT!!
  22. Nice looking build!! All of the details and the BMF look GREAT!! Later,
  23. Looking good, Clay!! I'll get you some more aluminum and brass rod in the mail this weekend. Later,
  24. Ed, Check back in a couple of weeks. It's "almost" done... Everything is painted and built except for the body. I had to wait for the LHS to get me more clear. I have it now and plan on painting and clear coating the body tomorrow. Later,
  25. Look GREAT, Brendan!! Decals HATE me!! That's why I don't build those types of models anymore...
