  1. Nice color combo.
  2. Really? If I had known I would have tried to track one down.
  3. Larry, Thank you for the generous offer. I am going to attempt to make appropriate mods on mine. If I fail, I will take you up on the offer.
  4. Thank you Rusty and Eric. ?
  5. With my custom decals printed, clearcoated and dried. I got to apply them today. They did not turn out perfect but good enough.
  6. I did get the Iwata handle. The whole combination has some heft to it. A pleasant surprise that in spite of the trigger and handle, it fits very well in my airbrush holder.
  7. Thanks for the trip down memory lane. A high school buddy and I bought a 71 Galaxie 500 4-door in baby blue with a blue interior. It was a good running n reliable car for $350.
  8. Those black steelies, and 4-speed, really style it as street bruiser.
  9. Nicely done.
  10. Here are some grilles done with Tamiya Panel Line.
  11. Great job on the recreation and the smile you gave her.
  12. The AMT 68 Shelby kit would give you a good running head start.
  13. I have gathered enough items to run this project to completion. I have disassembled a 75 Cutlass promo and will be making mods to backdate it to a 74. I have two sets of decals to make the H/O Indy pace car. Thus begins another kitbash adventure.
  14. Got to lay some white paint today with my new PS-290. I am liking it. Good atomization, good control, automatic ending with air only. The really big cup is a plus too. Clean up takes a bit more lacquer thinner due to larger cup. So far so good.
  15. Getting back to this one after being distracted by two challenging builds. Primered the hood yesterday and painted some decant Testors Gloss white along the centerline for the stripes. I will have to let it cure for couple of weeks before masking for the Dark Blue.
  16. Now that I have studied the spoke pattern closer, you are correct.
  17. I dunno about that. What about Big Red?
  18. Looks pretty good from here. When I built mine, I was not brave enough to paint the headlight frames.
  19. $20!!! You stole it!
  20. Superb job!
