  1. They are hydraulic. https://lainefamily.com/ModelABrakeUpgrade.htm
  2. Youโ€™re welcome. Apparently the box art was corrected at some point. I donโ€™t know if it ever contained F250 parts? My kit has the proper 1/2 ton front suspension. As in coil springs instead of leafs.
  3. Cool project!๐Ÿ‘ Are you planning on shortening it up any?๐Ÿ˜ˆ Chevy did build 2 door Chevelle wagons. https://www.curbsideclassic.com/curbside-classics-american/1964-chevelle-300-2-door-station-wagon-it-should-have-been-called-nomad-why-did-they-build-these-anyway/
  4. The kit I have has 5 lug rims and the box art shows five lugs also. Kit #1230. Edit: It also has the upper and lower trim molded in, if that is what youโ€™re looking for. It should be relatively easy to shorten the box and frame.
  5. Iโ€™ve wasted more masking tape and Bare Metal Foil by trying to be frugal than if I had just cut an obviously oversized piece in the first place.
  6. Anyway you want to build your model is all right by me, but Itโ€™s not a credo that has universal consensus.
  7. Was the front bumper done with that stuff? If so, it looks pretty good!๐Ÿ‘
  8. Due to my exhaustive research and diligent planning ๐Ÿ™„โ€ฆ. the 1/32 interior fits with very little modification. I had to do some grinding and I re-oriented the dash slightly. Much easier than starting from scratch.๐Ÿ™‚
  9. Iโ€™ve got more grinding to do on that Corvette, so I order a set of larger burrs.
  10. I wish I had that many kitsโ€ฆbut I still wouldnโ€™t sit on them.๐Ÿ˜ณ
  11. Breakfast consists of a cup of coffee and my meds.
  12. There be squirrels Captain!
  13. Looking good Bob!๐Ÿ‘ Nice solution for the grill.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  14. I like that color on it too Michael.๐Ÿ‘ I am interested in how this goes together, since I have this kit in both the MPC and AMT versions which I gather are from the same molds.
  15. Is it time to stop chasing squirrels and get back to the job at hand?
  16. Iโ€™d rather have the Scout.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  17. Reciprocates is what one of my saws does.
  18. Thanks for all the compliments fellas. So Iโ€™m guessing this has a some potential after all? Glad I aborted my first attempt.๐Ÿ˜ฌ Today I did a little more shaping.๐Ÿ™‚
  19. Excellent attention to detail.๐Ÿ‘ Iโ€™ll follow along. Iโ€™ve always wanted to build oneโ€ฆ๐Ÿ™‚
  20. Day two builds are my favourite.
  21. Looking very Nice!๐Ÿ‘
  22. It looks more metallic grey than black to meโ€ฆ.but I like it!๐Ÿ˜Ž I goes well with the red interior.๐Ÿ‘
  23. Absolutely wonderful! ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  24. Beautiful fab work!๐Ÿ˜Ž
  25. Adjustable parallel line jig. Useful for chopping tops, sectioning etc.?
