  1. Great looking build so far! Paint looks perfect. Really like your color choices!
  2. Very nice build!
  3. Great looking build so far! Really like what you did with the interior! I have this very same kit in the works. (On the shelf with the rest of my in progress builds) This is my inspiration.
  4. Beautiful build!
  5. Very nice 442 Randy!
  6. Very nice! Perfect engine choice!
  7. Nice work so far! Removing the old paint really uncovered your fantastic chopping skills and the new color is perfect! Very nice bodywork.
  8. That is a cool Bronco! Very nicely done so far!
  9. Beautiful, very detailed build! Another one I picked up a bunch of tips and tricks on. My two cents on the door handles, I would put them on. Fireball Modelworks makes some very nice sets. I used them on my 66 Malibu 4D.
  10. Great, very informative build you have going! I love builds like this. I’ll be soaking this all up as you go along!
  11. Very cool build! Nicely done!
  12. What a beautiful hotrod! Thank you for breaking down all of the build details, tips, and tricks! Lots of inspiration from your build!
  13. The more I look at the top view, you are correct. Sure would like to find a 3D printed or resin cast rear diff before I go this route!
  14. Very nice scratch building on your build so far! Looks perfect!
  15. I was kind of thinking the same thing only cutting off the front pinion area an moving that over to the right a little and reshaping a bit. Then cut the axle housings off and scratch build new ones so the diff is more centralized. If that goes well, I can see leaf spring making in my future! It’s a slippery slope!
  16. Ya, the Shapeways stuff is really nice, but I really do not want to go with a Dana. I’d like to have a GM 14 bolt.
  17. I know right! It just looks like the design of the kit rear diff is way off. Almost looks like the pinion gear is on the wrong side of the ring gear? As many of these I’ve had, I never like this rear axle.
  18. I thought I remember reading this thread! Great stuff!
  19. Hey Greg, I like to build all sorts of stuff, but been wanting to build one of the Revell pickups for a while. Thanks for the link to the thread. Some good info there. I clicked on the bnl link and it took me to a plastic injection company. Anyway, I have lot of areas to work on this truck in the meantime.
  20. So, I’m working on building a 3/4 ton 8ft bed Chevy version. Looking at this rear axle/differential, there’s got to be something better! Has anyone built their own? Any suggestions? I have a few of these rears so I could cut the springs off, scratch build the axle but still need to create the rear diff. Not sure where to begin. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
  21. Wow! Beautifully done! Very nice detail and the color is perfect!
  22. Great ideas!
  23. I always wanted to track done one of these! I had, what I believe, was an MPC kit years and years ago. Nice job on yours!
  24. Very nicely done! Details, paint, wheels all look great!
  25. Very nicely done!
