  1. well as BullyBeef expressed, the Lindberg 32 has made it past mock up. Im hoping to get a WIP started maybe later today.. heres a sneak peek
  2. Thanks! it was shear luck. the whole thing when assembled at a unit is about 8 feet tall and 8 ft long. Thats when I decided to build a stainless base for the shelving where I can display my vintage wheels. the bottom units are becoming an L shaped desk. Once my last 2 customer projects are done, its next on my list. Ive procrastinated long enough
  3. My goal is to get all of my hobbies organized to the point where the family doesnt need to worry about where stuff is. Im also thinning out my collection of 1:1 parts to stuff I know Ill use and then it gets organized by what its bought for. Im 42, so I hopefully have some years ahead of me.
  4. looks awesome! I love the green. Did you do a WIP on the hemi powered 5 window?
  5. A pie crust wouldnt have been used by that time frame. Everyone had gone to wrinkle wall slicks by 1970 or so. Cant wait to see what you do...If it were me (not that you asked haha) I see either a street freak, or an early pro street style build. Blower motor, stick shift,tall level stance (for a freak) or raked (for early pro street)
  6. Im always searching. I enjoy the hunt for stuff. The desk/bookcase in/for my office (for example) came out of an abandoned warehouse and are over 100 years old. I have to build the base for the bookcase still. I HATE new furniture. its all built so cheap
  7. I've been redoing my office for what seems like forever, and I got tired of everything being in boxes so last night I decided to pull out some of my stuff and fill up the antique display cabinet I bought last year. I guess I'm gonna need to buy another one haha I reorganized a few shelves in my living room too top shelf: my mock ups/current builds top interior shelf: mostly GMP disecasts shelf 2: survivor model shelf other than the falcon funny car shelf 3: mostly 1:64 with some other stuff mixed in shelf 4: 1:24 dubs type, mostly trucks living room shelf: mixture of stuff Now I need to finish the base for my bookshelf and get that in the office. I unfortunately don't see myself refinishing my wood floors anytime soon so I may as well display my the hot rod based art, the books and other stuff I've collected over the last 25 years
  8. I'll check to see if I have a clean set when I get home. just send me a message to remind me
  9. looks awesome! thats the current reissue?
  10. Thats what modeling is about and it looks great! I missed out on an original recently and Im still sore about it because what I have is incomplete too haha
  11. I do it all the time...Quality fab is quality fab. I had to do it in the hot rod industry all the time. Still do when a potential customer brings me his ideas
  12. To my knowledge yes, but the convertible has side panels for the bubble top too
  13. to my knowledge they were released only that one year so 1965
  14. I liked the belly Pan BUT I get why you did what you did and it looks awesome!
  15. OH THATS JUST AWESOME!...Id love to wind that thing out on a road course!
  16. Hey guys, Im on the hunt for an AMT Go Kart body. Prefer never used/ unpainted if possible
