  1. Beautiful build!
  2. Great that you are hanging in there and I hope everything turns out well for you! That’s a thoughtful gift! We have had similar gifts for some time, the 5 year old made Elsas’s ice castle this year and the son a Star Wars figure. So I get what you mean with Lego models! Glad you liked the danish gift!
  3. Game out great m8! Looks really nice with the fixed top and topped off in hugger and carbon!
  4. A quick reminder of what I started with.. I think there have been some modifications along the road! And there would have been many much easier ways to do this!! But a corvette racer hidden in a Silverado body will end upe some thing like this!

  6. Some more progress today, made the second header and started to plan for the exhaust.. as well as a ton of other work. I like having holiday ?
  7. Cool! My favorite is the Craftsman truck ?
  8. All are great looking builds! Nice work!
  9. Came out great! will you pot high res pictures in under glas?
  10. #2 Chevrolet Silverado C5R I made some progress on the chassi. The front bracing is started as well as radiator support. Also the back wall of the cab have been cut out of the body and engineered back to the chassi and the rear part of the pipe work have been started. Will ad a picture of that asap.
  11. Nice builds! Great job!
  12. Nice lineup!
  13. Really nice Steve! I just love the Camaro! Happy new year mate!
  14. To be able to engineer the truck as I want I had to cut some.. I cut out the rear wall of the cab and engineered it back to the chassis. This is to be able to fabricate the cage. comments and Thoughts are always welcome ?
  15. So I remade the previous work done in 2mm tubing out of the original corvette tubing which is 1,8mm. I made it with straight tubes without bends since the corvette chassi was made in that way. I also put back the resevoars for the front chocks.
  16. Reworked the front part of the frame tonight. And the corvette supports actually fits and will “support” the “carbon fiber” bumper and grill perfectly! Some finishing touches to the frame work will be made. I also beefed up the main profiles to 2mm which would be a 50mm pipe.. dot know if I like it in these pictures, irl it looks ok, or maybe I shall remake my work in 1,6 ?
  17. Nice work! And nice to see how to correct it! I have the nascar kits and have seen that the front arches are of due to the nascar racing. But I have not figured out how to sold them. And this is even though I used to own a Chevelle of this generation. This is the one I had: https://www.garaget.org/?car=113257
  18. Happy new year Sergey and great progress!
  19. The last two nights I started mocking up an other project.. I don’t know why but it’s how usually do. Will see if I manage to finish it now or if it will boxed again when the height and 4wd is engineered. The front have been raised around 6,5” to get the right height that I want. So far the upper arms are mounted lower on the frame and the spindles are extended to come up to the total height. Next is to glue the engine and place the differential. Will try to place it centered so I can get better articulation. And I think I will make new lower aarms with mounts.
