  1. Top, 6 spoke GT40 wheels or Bottom, center bolt Watanabes
  2. Great build! A classic car for sure and one of few from France that I like
  3. Okay so I lost my nut some where on the floor. So I might have to order a set of nuts or change to these with the same tires. Looks bad as in my opinion and true 60’s racer since they are from the 1/24 GT40 and the old school knock offs. Would be painted gray if so. I could also just move the knockoffs ?
  4. Thanks guys! Will try your tips! Have made the first passes of CA and sanding on all four wheels. And also mocked my new valvecovers ?
  5. Micro progress. Not really satisfied.. will see if I open up the other one. also try to sand out the old 4lug pattern
  6. Thanks! Slow progress on my builds m8! So you will finish yours ages before me ? brakes are easy to fit since brake shields for the fronts are there. Thanks!
  7. Nice progress Sergey! I will try to gather up some relevant pictures for you. I have allot, not much of the chassi but engine bay and fenders off and sow on. Have some front suspension pictures.
  8. Sweet!
  9. Sweet progress! I like the first wheel choice, looks caddy to me but still modern and custom!
  10. Thanks! No it’s from the kit. These are really nice kits!
  11. Good work there!
  12. so I started this one a while back when I thought I had messed up my 454SS. I built the chassi and cage but removed the cross bars so I could fit a second seat. But I managed to push through with the 454ss and did not continue on this build. well I wanted to make this build happen and no it won’t be stock car racing spec since the bars are cut out and I may actually ad my 3D printed lights to it and install rear lights and run it as a “long distance” racer. Don’t know yet. But I won’t make the original livery since I am afraid of using all the original decals due to age, yellowing and all. So my plan is to use the C5R #3 decals and make a dale truck but with the modern corvette themed collors. I am thinking something similar to the zr1 launch livery since it would be possible to replicate with paint only with my skills. since it’s cold here and expensive to heat the hose and my paint both is in a cold room many parts will be hand painted. But not the body ?
  13. Turned out great!! Low the idea on a model car! Have seen this on 1:1 on instagram as well and I can’t say I like the 1:1 idea. your execution is great!!
  14. That’s splendid! Great work!
  15. Nice! I like the idea to leave what had already been done as is and push on ?
  16. Nice! Have been looking at this kit many times since I love these chevys! Will follow ?
  17. Nice! Thats a flawless black spray job!
  18. Nice build mate!
