Looking superb! The 1/12 looks better than the 1/25 in my view.
-
Beautifull build! My interest for nascars have been made greater of such builds as yours! They do look nice in the shelf! Btw have no relationship to nascar since borne and raised in Sweden.
-
Cool Thanks! Se how he sorted my problem with the chassis.. he just replaces the dash instead of reusing the T-bird stuf.
-
Beautifull! I am also buildning same body and chassis.. but totaly new to nascars and this type of modifications. do you have a link to the wip you where reffering to? I am building mine more like roadkil Nascarlo, A retired nascar made to run on the streets ?
-
Great looking builds! Can i beg for some chassis and engine pictures. I am thinking of robing such a chassis and slap a MPC '73 Chevelle body on top.

Mattilacken replied to Mattilacken's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Thanks! great tip! Will try it out at the next opportunity! I did miss that the side markers should have been body color! Well BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH happens. Thanks! Yes it’s actually nice. Will buy a second one so I can build it with engine which this fleebay kit did not. -

Mattilacken replied to Mattilacken's topic in WIP: Model Cars
I have been doing some trying out on the body. Emptied the last from the tamiya can for the final coat, after the removal of some dust with a fine grit paper. Came out ok but far from great since it spluttered a bit. No clear since my paintbox is damaged at the moment. And then I won’t over with a marker to paint the chrome. Lesson learned. Mask for the chrome work my hand is not steady enough. put the front wheels on and made some modifications to the rear tires, replaced the old style with a set from a 1:25 corvette but they where made for a bigger tire so I used canopy glue and paint to make it look ok. -
Wickid! looks sick!
-
Both are beautiful builds! Great work there!
-

Cool build! -
If i where to attend a 24h build, which I won’t since I have two small kids, I would go for any tamiya kit. So little prep before paint and the kit go together so well. Of yours I would go with GTO... just because... GTO ?

Looking realy good! I have been following along al the way but missed some where. was't it 3 you where building from the beginning?
-
Beautifull builds al of them! the Yenko engine is absolutley stuning!

That windshield sounds cool might worth a second kit ? Thanks! I am a car nut and missed working with fun cars, personal situation does not allow for fun cars at the moment, and this was a substitute. Also i like watching them on my shelf so i guess i missed Cars =D Yes it was a bit of a tradgidy with the cabinet and I am verry pleased that i managed to save the supra from what easily had been defeat. Also it feelt good to actualy overcome the obstacle of striping a boddy and repainting it. Painting has always been my least favourite thing with model building, built me a cabinet for that to make it easier. Hehe he is good for being age 5, and now we are doing alot of instruction reading on Lego, quite advanced stuf, so it will be nice to se his progress next time we build a modelt together ?

I did not think about the missing windscreen, most likely due to the type of car ? here is my 2020
-

-

Beautifull! -
Interesting. I guess it’s up to the storage manager to decide what’s in there. I will ask them if they can order the Mog and mustang. ?

Really clean! Great work there!

Beautifull! Really came out great! Tamiya is some thing special to me, I like when I don’t have to re engineer a kit to make it look the part!
