  1. That looks like a great build coming along. I can't tell you how many times I read that paper back in my younger days....
  2. Well here I go again, This will be # 4 in the books. I trying to get a way to set it on rubber nice, and getting the wheels centered in the fender Wells. Another thing I noticed on these Kit's are higher than normal ride height out of the box, plus the dog dish hub caps seem to stick out more than normal, what I have done is sand them thinner to the point where they almost slip in the rim opening, anyway, I'm having a lot of fun with these trucks, thanks, Perry
  3. Thank you, ! I got the 50 Chevy/ Rust,/ salt idea from Dr. Cranky, I love his videos...
  4. Hey that's just really neat, nothing like time spent with kid's doing good things...!!
  5. Beautiful workmanship, looks like a neat kit to build, ???
  6. Here is a picture or two of my recent build..dechromed salt treatment, homebrew turn signals.. DeSoto engine and torch set from AMT 53 Ford pickup
  7. Oh great! a 1950 Chevy rocketship on the launch pad!!! Actually I'm happy it worked,,, I'll get it yet....
  8. That's just really cool, I like the rear end treatment on the Ford. Studebaker roof on the boat, lots of imagination...
  9. Well , thanks for your help, I will be sure to submit questions as required. I guess I really done it I ordered yet another kit , a Revell 29 roadster 2n1, I've never had so many Kit's on hand like this ever, and compare to you guys it's nothing.... but I'm having fun, not getting greasy and is cheaper than a real rod, plus I don't have to worry about hitting a deer like a real car, and up in Michigan we have lots of deer???????
  10. Been looking at your post on this, I really like it! ?
  11. Wow that is great, Thanks for the nice photos,and information, this is really a great forum, I did find a Monogram kit online, should be getting it soon, but I will put in a order to Replicas and Miniatures, I've never messed with resin so it will be a good learning experience, Thanks again...
  12. I'm also an Antique radio person, have a house full of treasure's, I notice stuff like that, I really like your color choices...
  13. I see that now, but isn't the Revell 5 window also molded with the floor pan with it. I've been looking a lot online of prototype 32 frames, suspensions, and taking notes. I doubt very much I will have a real one to look at. The H.a.m.b. site is wonderful reference, ?
  14. Congratulations! Your build has inspired me to buy and build one way to go!!!!
  15. I really like the dashboard, are those decals on the speedometer and radio?I believe the L is for longwave, M is for medium wave ( our AM band,,) unsure what the others are for,? Can't wait to see the finished product...!
  16. I'm watching this!!!
  17. Thanks this is what I was looking for, great information,!!!
  18. Holy Cow, amazing,!!!!!
  19. Recently I received the 32 5 window coupe from Revell, after reading about it on this forum it looks like a good deal. I'm kinda new to this again but I would like to build it with more period correct parts. ( Banjo rear end, drum brakes, Flat head motor... I do have a flyer from Replicas and Miniatures and it looks like one way to go, or would I be better off to combine another kit to get the parts I need.(Example Revell Tweetie Pie ). I don't mind spending some money on this as it's still cheaper than building a real one! Does one buy more than one or two Kit's just for the parts. I really like the recent posting on the Hard chopped 32... anyone?
  20. On my 73, I had a rattle and buzz from the shift lever to rod, drove me nuts, I can't remember what I did for it....
  21. Looking real nice,isn't that some really nice spray paint, I don't think I will ever use anything else...Hmmm. shifter lockout, let's see, oh yes, push down on the knob for reverse,
