  1. And two with the dog dishes on.
  2. Some shots without the white background.
  3. Finished my 68 Charger R/T Hemi car.
  4. Started final assembly. Will post some shots in Under Glass.
  5. Thank you for the comments. Will probably drop it a little. Yes the wheels are not perfect but I don’t like the ones I’m finding on ebay. I’ll keep looking but if I don’t find a set I like I’ll just use what I have.
  6. Trying to figure out how I’m going to do the front suspension. Mocked up for ride height and wheel gap. Might bring the rear down a little but I think I’m close.
  7. Coming along nice. That’s a sweet color. Going to look real nice with the black interior.
  8. Those 3D printed parts are going to make all the difference. This should be really good. Looking forward to seeing your progress.
  9. The hood scoop looked a little too tall so I made a shorter one. Also trimmed around the trunk opening and put a trunk floor in
  10. Your Charger came out real nice. Great job.
  11. I was going to use styrene for the hood scoop but I didn’t like the way that thickness was scaling. Made a pattern in AutoCAD and transferred it onto a pepsi can Then I used a photo etch bender to fold the edges.
  12. Couldn’t do it. My mechanic drowned. Too soon?
  13. Rear trunk opened up. Man, I’ve always admired you guys that kit bash and scratch build but this is giving me a whole new dose of respect for you guys. Sounds so much easier than it is. I just hope I can do this build justice.
  14. That’s got to be the best one I’ve seen yet. He really nailed it.
  15. Built up the firewall with styrene sheet and opened up the rear quarter wheel openings. Also removed the vent window frames on the doors and glued the hood to the fenders and removed the inner fenders. Still have to putty and sand the firewall and give the rear wheel openings a little lip.
  16. As others have said your builds are amazing. So realistic. Your 1/24 and 1/25 builds are indistinguishable from the real car. I can only imagine what you would do with a 1/12 scale model.
  17. Nice. Looks good to me. Remove? No way. Post em if you got em.
  18. A few shots for reference. I’m pretty sure most here are familiar with the movie but I thought I’d put up a few pictures to set the mood.
  19. Sanded the side trim off of the rear quarter panels and doors and cut off the front end. I got a feeling this is going to take a while.
  20. So I was at Hobby Lobby last week and they had a sign up that said 40% off all plastic kits. Well I couldn’t turn that down so after getting my mothers, I mean my wife’s approval, I bought these with the intent of trying my hand at my first kit bashing project. The 55 Chevy from Two Lane Blacktop. 55 Chevy for the body. 40 Willys for the tires and suspension and the Chevelle for the tunnel ram intake.
  21. Really well done considering where you started from. Came out great.
  22. Great job with this one. Really beautiful build and excellent photography. Looks like the 1:1. Bravo!
  23. Beautiful looking Charger. Came out real nice. Great Mopar collection too.
  24. Very nice build. I can smell the exhaust.
