LADIES AND GENTLEMEN: Presenting: Finished Z06 *PICS*
gasman replied to ismaelg's topic in WIP: Model Cars
looks great Izzy, I really need to finish mine. I'm not a big Corvette fan but I like the Z06 -
anyone know anything close to this color, this is a very rare Ferrari color called Verde Germoglio. I'm planning on building a Monogram 308 in this color. I thought maybe Lamborgini Verde Miura might be close. but the Lambo color is a bit lighter i'll prohibably just end up using the Lamborgini color since its close enough, I just want to know if there is anything out there that maybe closer

if "here" is here then...
gasman replied to jbwelda's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I also agree with Bob and Khart, the problem with that board is that its an old style. very old in fact. if you want to look at old progress of the model there is almost no way to do that unless they have a Fotki account. which most don't I can understand his reasoning why he keeps it, he wants to be able to allow new people to post. but it brings in more trolls then anyone else, also, it does'nt block against SPAM posters who have been putting up useless information recently -

Need some paint help.....
gasman replied to Len Geisler's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
although Tamiya does'nt require primer, I would use it anytime around Revell's new plastic. I have no issue's on my Z06 which was painted Tamiya Mica Silver over Tamiya white primer. -
2008 Dodge Challenger
gasman replied to FASTBACK340's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I also like the new Challenger over the Camaro. the Camaro seems to busy to me. but if I had 35K to spend on a muscle cars. I will be going down to my local Subaru Dealer and get a WRX STi, The Camaro, Challenger and even the Mustang are still chasing that car performance wise. If GM is going to build the Camaro they can not afford to build it without killing something off. I think the Monte Carlo is going to the chopping blockits been a sales dud since they redesigned them in 2000. The only reason they havent killed it is becouse of its ties to NASCAR EDIT:, forgot about this little gem coming in 2009, the twin turbo V6 Nissan Skyline GTR -

Overhaulin Bel-Air on EBAY
gasman replied to gasman's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
the overall build quality is lacking, I understand they only have 7 days to build it, but there's some area that need some help. like look at the undernieth of the trunk, very rough. and the fitment of everything is very off -
I'm not surprised we havent seen more of these on the bay. this is the 4dr they converted to a 2dr. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1956-Chevy-...1QQcmdZViewItem

a word of caution about the Revell Z06 kit
gasman replied to gasman's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I already now I have to sand it, most of the crazing is in the interior bucket. and where you not going to see it on the finished model. the rest looks good so I may just sand it down and repaint. and not strip the whole thing -
I went to paint the interior today, just everyday Tamiya semi flat black laquer, but when I painted it, the paint crazed big time, I know Revell's new plastic has some issue's but this is the first time i've ever had this issue using Tamiya paint. so now its sitting in 91% Isopropyl Alcohol to get the crazed paint off, then i'll airbrush it Tamiya Acrylic. so I don't have this issue again.
