    Very clean builds. You need a bigger photo booth. lol
  2. Bills72sj
    Very nicely done.

    Pretty good. You did what we call around here Snake-Fu.

    The yard

    Bills72sj replied to NYLIBUD's topic in WIP: Dioramas

    I like the "dirt" yards the best. More realistic.

    I love this era Riv's. My Dad had one for a little while in the early 70's.

    Thanks. Here is a little more detail of my wheel fabrication.

    Thanks for sharing. Now I know how to route the serpentine belt. (Once I make one)

    I am just now starting 3 C3 builds. (69, 70 and 75) I have 2 of my colors chosen. I have been going round and round on the 3rd. After seeing yours, I am liking the blue. Thanks for sharing.

    Following. I built one not to long ago. I too used the AMT 67 GT engine bay in my 68. The kit one was just too lame. I modified some Shelby wheels to suit my needs. I failed at the body colored grille surround, however. Maybe next time.

    Good luck with that kit roof. Following.

    I have taken to making them myself. Sometimes with boots sometimes not.

    I just finished 4 Pontiac motors. All were configured to be 421 Tri-Power. 65 Bonneville, 65 2+2 (Same engine molds) 1965 Grand Prix and a Revell Parts pack in chrome with bell housing but no transmission. Note: I did not detail them as extensively as Steve did.

    Jeremy, I'm building the '71. (With a just arrived Hellcat engine)

    I have never used oven cleaner. I use Westley's Bleach White for chrome. (I have a car with Raised White Letters) Super Clean lasts for years and will do MULTIPLE bodies. I actually left one body in for 5 months with NO harm. I also use brake fluid when Super Clean is having a struggle. Sometimes back and forth between the two.

    I was given a Panavise without the base. I was later given a solid disc of solid stainless steel. I TIG welded a stainless hex bolt to the center. I married the two freebies. I now have a 6-1/2 pound vise that actually HOLDS STILL when working on something. Its portability lets me position it on the bench wherever I need it to be. AND... the kitty cannot run off with whatever is clamped in it. ?

    You have to build with one hand tied behind your back.

    Very tasty build!
  20. Bills72sj
    Me too. I have never tipped anything over except my Dixie cup full of sprue lengths.

    AMAZING! If I ever find enough real estate to build a scale Truck Stop diorama, I know who to call for paving it!?
  22. Bills72sj
    That is pretty neat. I have never seen anything like it.
