BIGTRUCK

That Ranchero looks great..was waiting for you to finish it up before I replied..Jeff @ Motor City puts out a great product , I have some but love the 1969 Ambassador , cast in white , hard to tell from a plastic kit..

Hi Bill....Welcome , maybe catch ya at one of the local swaps or meets, good seeing more area guys pop up...I'm in Wooddale Il....

What a smokin' hot looking Camaro....looks great!!!

I like it Brian...its moving along nicely...How can you go wrong with a '57 Chevy...its always been a cool subject..

You coudnt be more right Al....hottest Willys I've seen for a long time...its all good !!

Terry, I never seen a Fireball 500 built before...also the beverly hillbillies car is dead on....nice work as always...

Murphy dont have anything on ya yet....nice color choice..

This one went together pretty good , considering only the body, interior tub and part of the chassis was all I had...the rest was donated from Jeff Burton # 99 Taurus , both cars in 1/24th scale...or bent to fit or made from evergreen plastic...I didnt try to replicate any particular car...just the way I see it... Thats it ...top to bottom....on to whatever :arrow: :arrow: :?:

Hi Jared...try this , its worth a look... http://www.alclad2.com/alclad-home.html

Wow , I noticed it hit the BIG #700 members and growing....Gregg & Jairus this ones for you

2007 must be the year for hobby room rehab..Dave dont let the wife help, youll have mushey girl curtains :roll: ...Chris like your spray booth and paint rack....

Hey Casey. the '57 chevy is one of my favorite subjects,,,yours is a winner too...nice work...

Almost done...windshield out of the Nascar Taurus kit, stance where I think it looks right, engine almost done...headers are drying, final paint on the rub bars and .....

I have the Paasche VL that came with 3 tips, still learning what I can do with it.so far its a good gun....I keep goin back to my old binks wren gun because it feels better to me, I had it a long time...for air I had the big craftsman 25 gallon that goes over 120 lbs. more than you'll ever need for models but will surley run your tools...that has 2 regulators and a CP water trap, works well but sounds like the troops are invading, plus you dont want it in the house. I got a small one with a tank from wal-mart and put 1 regulator and a screw on water filter and that works good for the 50 bucks it costs [plus your add ons] but it needs to be screwed down to some 2 x 4's or it vibrates around..a small portable air tank I never tried, but some swear by it...all are better than what canned air bombs cost and your able to do much..MUCH more by getting away from the air cans..

Thanks, the one in the pic came from Hobby Lobby...they were selling 'em for $150 bucks each..two weeks after I bought it , the company I work for relocated a bank to their new building. They got rid of 3 this same size except no wood , they were all glass and the same size trimmed in chrome...I was lucky to get one...just didnt get it from the garage to the basement yet.... :wink:

HA...What would the D.O.T. know about anything , I live in Illinois where the Gov'na was going to prison for dealin' out CDLs like playing cards....but thats my 24 year old son and his wife as of Saturday the 20th 2007 when he gets married...they say I look like the mailman....

Steve that engine is wild , tires look great...pin everything..your right..I pin all I can so I dont have to go back later and re-do....Any thought on color ..rat or glimmer and glitz? Ive done a few myself and just got the chopped '32 resin body , no ideas on it yet, I'll watch yours , maybe something will click for me..

Zeb , old room was 12 x 14 with a walk in closet , TV's goin on the wall tonite, Pat stanchions and blue rug came out of a bank we moved as well as 1 big glass case [moving furniture has its pluses] clients tell us to get rid of alot of good things... Zeb, I think I'm the only one with an intrest in these ........

After being cramped in a small area my wife and resident warden let me have the entire basement for my own. All is complete after doing things my [and her way..painting and stuff]except the last 12 feet and that will be a TV and video game area and one more glass case....now back to building.... Work area is still messy, but somethings never change........

Roadmaster Riv...?

Darrel, if you look at my ''on the bench'' post , that modified mustang I'm doin has the decals cleared over. They are slixx and some cady decals , but they are thinner than kit decals and cleared with dupli-color .the few sponsor decals i used from a kit still lets the decal edge show , so trim it down close,,,I usually dont clear over anything but paint , but this time i did.........

Hey cool Ute Michael , great job of weathering...

Well , now kinda resembles a '57 Pontiac some.........

Packard tails , lake pipes . fender louvers gone as well as door handles, and is that the gas door in the bumper ?..cool..

Antonio thats sharp...love that color...clean build...
