Favourite Rims
Bills72sj replied to Falcon Ranchero's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I suggested to my buddy to go similar but different on his wheels for his Challenger R/T SE. He got compliments frequently. I even built a tribute of it. -

Bills72sj replied to J.B. Customs's topic in Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Way cool tribute. Nice color combo. -

Bills72sj replied to RACINE ISHRAQUR RAZA's topic in Model Cars
Pretty color. Did the engine come from a flying saucer? -
Thank you for the review. I always thought the front end was one of the best of the Colonnade era. pretty color.

Steve, Very clever solution. I have never liked the slots either. Do you provide a place in the engine bay, magnetically, to store the hinges when the hood is closed?

'71 Boss Mustang with widebody kit and LED lighting...
Bills72sj replied to SpikeSchumacher's topic in Model Cars
Wow, that is pretty cool. You got the amount of orange touches just right. Tastefully done. -
You guys inspired me! I want to finish my garage.
Bills72sj replied to mchook's topic in WIP: Dioramas
That is pretty nice. I love the block technique you used. The dirty bathroom was typical when I was a kid. As an aside, your shop floor is suspiciously clean. -
Those both are pretty sweet.

Wow that is awesome. I too want to build the 58 to 70 series. I have all of them except the rare (and expensive) 68 and 69.

Good to see you are back at it again. I have been in a slump as well. Started at least 5 projects but none of them made it as far as paint. I am currently distracted as I am rebuilding my spare 1:1 455 Pontiac engine for my 72 GP. I will be following your progress.

One of my favorites was Firefly. I actually bought the DVD set.

Down memory lane for fun
Bills72sj replied to John1955's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I guess you were taught to respect other people's (and your) property early on in your childhood. Kudos to you parents. -

Very nice! A unique combination of billet wheels retina burning paint.

Dodge L-700 stake bed
Bills72sj replied to Sam I Am's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
I am along for the ride. I have dreams of making my L700 into a short tanker. Like the septic tank cleaning type. -
Revell 1966 Pontiac GTO in Tamiya Titanium Gold.
Bills72sj replied to Dragonhawk1066's topic in Model Cars
That turn out quite sweet. -
Thanks. I long ago I determined that stance is WAY more important than wheels that actually ROLL. So I tend to build suspensions stock in relation to the chassis. I then painstakingly glue the tires to whatever is available. I do so in exactly the position I want them to be located in the wheelwells. Do I get misalignment from the ends of the suspension? Sure, but I do not have anyone in my life flipping my models upside-down to give me any grief over it.

I have gotten stuff from Keith before. He has a quite a few offerings. I have not contacted him for awhile. I could make the decals at home but I do not have the artwork files. A hi-res scan would work but you have already applied yours.
