  1. Clean lines , good stance gotta love it kinda build , maybe a little scroll work down low . I used that Cady sheet in red on my '62 ford pickup build , but ruined it by grabbing gloss coat instead of dull coat CSC'd and started over , be careful on the long decals the split kind of easy.
  2. Top notch build happening here .........awwwwesome...
  3. Super cool Pat , I'd lean towards white licks with BMF or de-chromed with the gold , cool wheel choice very period , what flakes did you use and can we see the back.............
  4. Billy its pretty cool how you try all styles of builds , Nascar , '48 chevy , 59 Rambler ,Nascar , the old classics , el caminos did I mention Nascar... LOL.... I have 6 of those Ramblers when they first came out, never got past opening one up to check it out... cool builds Billy ....
  5. Welcome Matt, really cool rod . What tire/wheel combo is that & are those chrome drums ?
  6. Thats gonna be one wicked lookin' build as is the 1:1
  7. This ones almost done , just need to clear coat , add all the detail painting and some PE parts , make a rear bumper [maybe a pipe type].Had to mock up the trailer to get the right ride height . Been a productive weekend so far , good ole Tamiya tape comes thru again .
  8. It looks like your at the end is off base, I always hit the preview button and hang on . Are you going custom or rat on your chopped build?
  9. They all look great , the "Cuda" came out super , the body lines flow perfectly and the wrap around glass just seems natural, been a while since I've seen it & look forward to seeing it in color..
  10. Very cool , another super lookin build..
  11. Looks good to me , nice colors ,very good build I like it...
  12. I enjoyed the pics , that looked like one great show , the "Earth Angel" custom just oooozed old school.
  13. Toledo is the only one I'll make it to this year , I have to steal time off work to go and promise to take the wife , hope to meet some of you and maybe Jairus could design Model Cars name tags we can print out....
  14. A mighty fine lookin' trike Al , also your own little world quote is pretty funny . I like them both.
  15. Hey I forgot I have some hole punches , I'll have to buy some smaller sizes under 1/4" for smaller id's , but thats cool, thanks Bill for the jump start...
  16. #1 ] Has anyone ever used Dull-coat on your own printed decals? I want to knock the shine off the look Gloss-coat makes . Dull-coating after the decal is applied still leaves a semi glossy halo look . #2 ] I have been using Testors clear parts cement and window maker for making glass on gauges . Trying for a 'convex' look rather than a 'concave' look , also used bottled clear but with repeated coats the gauge face becomes unreadable . There might not be an answer to this but I thought just maybe .
  17. All your hard work turned out one nice build...
  18. Wow thats some toy , seen the sump you made and the body , its gonna be killer
  19. Way to go , ruts suck !!!
  20. Came back off the road today and did a little work finish the H-1 interior, I found the color of Kens Kustom Fuzzi-Fur I needed in Oklahoma ,maybe I can get some seat belts done this weekend also , no completed builds in 3 months , I have a few I'm anxious to start on. built backs for the front seats , rear seat backs cant be seen with the body on
  21. You got that right , I dont have a Pantera and theres always room for 1 more kit I dont need...
  22. Really sharp , looks like alot of time in those builds..
  23. They opened one in our town in '93 , my then 11 year old wanted to show me this cool place , Slotcars!!! oh boy I bought every thing over the next 4 years that was slotcars . Now its 2006 I have slotcars packed away in boxes new clear bodies , unused new engines, outlaw frames and the only one I built for myself on display in my model case , oh well I had fun until he grew up and found other things to do, fun while it lasted..
  24. Nice lookin' oak floors , really sharp..
