  1. Great work! Looks sharp!
  2. Came out great! Very good work there!
  3. Great progress! Looks incredible!
  4. Looks really good! The rolbar looks good! But that must be like a “4 tube ?
  5. No. 19 Been doing some cage work in the Silverado C5-R
  6. Made some progress on the truck. Have some real figment issues on the hood have to test the other one and se if it at least have the right length. have glued the fuel cells, and part of the frame in after some modifications to the fitment, not happy with them yet but I think I have an sulution for it when making the fuel cell larger. also glued the lower bed sides in and tried to fit the roll pan but it was to narrow.. so a custom one will have to be made. And that might be good any how since the decisor will need to be extended and exit in that space.
  7. Some baby steps.. new bed Habbe gotten its inside cut out, I did manage to damage the outer side of the fender while cutting from the backside, so some sanding and filling was needed. Stil need some grinding on the lower front edge to the cab to get the bed to align with the cab.
  8. I can agree on that ? thanks for your input! ? Thanks allot! It’s not a straight forward project that’s for sure, it’s allot of engineering and thinking ? thanks for your two cents!
  9. Beautifull work! Looks killa!
  10. Great looking piece of art!
  11. Thanks! And thanks for you thoughts I appreciate it! Yes I think I will, need to sort out the glue damage on that one though.
  12. Thats looking great! I love your truck and the stance! And a real sleeper with those wheels! Those bars in the engine bay is looking sick! A stepside bed would push it even further in my opinion. I have one for you depending on where you are located ? You got me there on awd... an unexpected engine and layout would be an monster turboed RB26 awd! Or skyline gearbox and front diff, nascar rear end with a LS twin turbo! That would be so gooood! Shapeways have a kit. https://www.shapeways.com/product/4DBBRS7SJ/brodix-1-25-bbc-nre-w-intercooler?optionId=63856680&li=shops
  13. Glad to se you back Dan! Looks good as always! Trying to get back to my project as well.
  14. Made some progress after allot of late work nights.. since it’s Easter time and here in north of Sweden that’s a time for going outside and use the grill.. I opened up the grill on the Silverado. Can’t decide on hood but I think I prefere the stock one. o and the thread is now under pickups instead of other racing.
  15. So i need som help in the decision of hoods. I am most for the stock one. Any suggestions? I did also open up the grill and I think I will use this bumper that have been sectioned about an inch.
  16. So I have not had much time at the desk for model work, I have been at the desk working allot. Have had a lot of projects that have had to be done this month for the mines. I got some time to sit down today but I felt that I had to do some clean up to see what I have to work with. So a box clean was on the schedule. can’t make up my mind on seats either.. alternative one is the stock Silverado seats.. or the Recaro fixed backs. I got the new kit in and been looking at the custom hood and I am not a fan.. either I fix the stock hood or craft the center section out of the custom one and replace it with a flat surface.. or a C5 corvette bulge. I have also been looking at the bed. The sides narrows to the back so the tailgate is more narrow than the front of the bed. I have two ideas, I’m either widening the tailgate so the bed sides are parallel or I do a wide arch fender, Or both. Have not made up my mind on that. more pics hopefully during Easter if we don’t pack up and go to the summer cabin ?
  17. Very neat! Great progress! I was thinking of this the other week but with the stepside bed. Will be following and pick up that fd100
  18. Incredible build and machine!
  19. Looks cool! I like the idea! One vette that would work is the C5-R . Some mods to the flat underside so it does not look so oriented to the body and voila! Cage done! but almost to easy.. but details twin turbos and slap the wing on it! Dang!
  20. Beautiful build dude! Very nice work on that body! Engine looks strong and epic!
  21. Very cool stance! Fits the scene perfectly! Great work! I can se Itsukis expression when seeing that one!
  22. Looks incredible good! Graphics suits it well! I did a photoshop of that, Shelby series 1 with GTS roof back In 2003 or 2004 because I also saw the potential of the series one coupe! Haven’t I seen this before? I remember a post long ago that I searched forward not long ago.. was it your WIP maby? beautifull work btw!
