  1. This is the video I get. “Can We SAVE A 1920 Zenith T5F Carburetor W/ MODERN Technology?“ Edit: I thought it was the wrong video, but the 3d scanning starts at 4:05.
  2. Yeah, the mirrors are two piece units that I stole from the Foose Impala. The mirrors sections are too thin to pin.
  3. Thanks Jim….I learned this method right here on the forum.🙂 I pinned the bases to the body and then added the mirror sections as a last step.
  4. Things are not always how they appear.
  5. The grill is in, the wood bed is in, the door handles are on and the mirrors are located and just waiting for the glue to dry. Once the license plate is attached it will be done.
  6. Thanks!👍 I Just ordered one and will modify as necessary.😎
  7. Not familiar with this kit, but what type of glue did you use?
  8. Preferences of that kind we can do without.😳
  9. Engine and interior look good Mike.👍
  10. I can’t take credit for this idea, as I ran across this post on a thread here. Thanks Eelco! It works good enough for me. These are Marette brand.
  11. That’s what I do. I have made a custom tilt column for a ‘31 Ford. And I trimmed probably a scale foot and a half off the Monogram’64 GTO column.
  12. The chassis and the body are now permanently mated (I hope😬). After having the radiator in and out about a dozen times I got a couple of rad hoses made to fit and added an antifreeze recovery tank.
  13. Beautiful intricate work you’re doing Andrew!😎
  14. Looking good Jim. Dang, your upholstery guy is talented.🙂 If it was mine I would try to lower that grill shell a bit.
  15. Popular Hot Rodding was one of my favourite magazines as a teenager.
  16. These are handy and I use them occasionally.
  17. Words can be arranged into a proper sentence if one is inclined to make the effort.
  18. I also like to pin tiny parts. Even large parts like bumpers and seats. You can use any relatively rigid wire for pins. I like to use 0.020” brass. It cuts easily with my cheap nippers. For tinier pins I have some 0.010” and 0.015” Phosphor-bronze wire that I got at a model railroad shop.
  19. That’s a nice shade of blue Pat. It looks great!😎
  20. It’s coming along nicely Bob. The wheels look great!😎
  21. I use 5 minute epoxy to mount them solid. The rears are parallel and the fronts have a bit of “toe-in”.
  22. Jealous thoughts without any action to improve one’s own situation or sense of satisfaction and self worth is pointless.
  23. That is one gorgeous looking deuce there Russell. Well done!👍😎
  24. Extremely fine job on this iconic hot rod from one of my favourite movies!👍😎 If I get around to building one I will certainly be using your build thread as a guide.🙂
  25. I’ve been adding some of the details to this one. And I am finally getting the wheels permanently attached.
