NOBLNG

First off…I am no paint expert…but I, personally would not brush paint a body. Assuming the worst case scenario…I would still step outside in -30 degree weather and spray bomb a coat on and step back inside. That said, some talented folks can achieve unbelievable results using brush techniques. I’m sure someone will offer more pertinent advice.

Yeah! No kidding! I can change out components…even engines and transmissions. But these electrical gremlins are difficult to diagnose.? The shop tells me it is the starter and gave me what I think is a reasonable price for repair so I gave them the go ahead. I hope they are correct, because after a bit of surfing, it seems there are a multitude of possible electrical gremlins in these 2017 trucks.?

My 2017 F250 would not start yesterday. The block heater was plugged in since it’s very cold here right now. The battery is charged according to my smart charger…..but the engine will not crank over. I had it towed yesterday to a shop that specializes in electrical repairs that my regular mechanic recommended. The day before it kept telling me that the rear doors were ajar and the interior light would come on by itself.? I hope it doesn’t cost me an arm and a leg.?

Nice work.? A bit Of a surprise when you lift that hood.?

That is one nice looking old truck!?

Nice work!? Like XYHARRY said, it’s all about having fun. You will no doubt find ways to improve your skills a bit with each one you build.

Nicely done!? Those wheels look great on it.

That is very realistic looking “rust” on the frame of the older one, and the purple one is coming along nicely.?

The emblem on the steering wheel is Oldsmobile. Beyond that IDK.

Some kits were designed NOT to be assembled.?

Nice! Got any more pics and some details??

You’re jumping right into the deep end aren’t you?? Well it looks pretty good to me so far! Carry on.?

The primer is safe to use under enamel. Any glue that is used on painted parts is only as strong as the paint bond is. I have started putting tiny score marks with the tip of a sharp #11 blade on the mating surfaces before using CA. Especially on very tiny parts that I can’t pin. I think it gives the glue something to hang onto.

Nice work all round Mario!? The wood looks very real.

I couldn’t work there….I’d be constantly tired.?

Could you please post a picture of the seat belts and/or the entire sheet of paper? Thanks.

Nice work replicating your 1:1 Zack.?

You made her into a sweet looking Mustang Steve!? Great job fixing those rear quarters.?

Nice mods so far. The OB did a good job on that paint job and the kit deserves some of your lovin.?

Nice work.? The interior looks great.

It sure turned out nice Bob.? You can definitely see the green in the brighter pics.

Here’s my two. The ‘67 is my most recent build.?

Blitzar sounds like some kind of a sports strategy.

Thanks Guys! I appreciate the kind comments.?

That is really looking great Scott! Awesome work on everything including that ladder.?
