  1. Excellent build. Very clean.
  2. Thanks , Bruce and Stephen. I really appreciate the feedback.
  3. Are you talking about these?
  4. Thanks guys. I really appreciate the feedback.
  5. Thanks again Billy. Hard to believe that was almost three year ago.
  6. Thanks, Billy. You must have done some digging to find this one. It was a fun build.
  7. Niko, Its called .5 mm "Stretch Magic" bead and jewelry cord. You can also get it in bigger diameters. I purchased it from "Hobby Lobby" a craft store here in the states.
  8. The air cleaner and carbs are scratchbuilt and the interior required some scratchbuilding to remove the rear seat but the rest is box stock. Oh yes and the tires and wheels are from my spare parts box. The tires and wheels that come with the kit are chrome custom wheels and low profile wide modern tires. here is the kit.
  9. Another beauty O.C.
  10. Very nice. You cant go wrong with an Earnhardt car. They are all great.
  11. Very nice build. It inspires me to do the one I have.
  12. Super nice build.
  13. Super clean, Excellent build.
  14. Excellent build. Inside and out.
  15. Very nice. I like fantasy builds.
  16. Another excellent build. I really like the oil filter. What brand is it?
  17. I find that two coats may not be enough to seal the decals unless they're heavy coats and then you have a chance of melting and running the ink . That's why I do 4 very light coats instead. Nothing disappoints more then putting the decal in water and watching the ink wash away. And of course your printer has to have a scanner on top of it to work. Most printers nowadays are a scanner/ printer combination.
  18. Thanks , Jesse for your interest in the build.
  19. Thanks , Cliff. I really appreciate the feedback.
  20. Not his dads car. Its a reproduction of his dads car. Just like those cars on the track behind them. If your going to hijack the thread at least get it right.
  21. Steve, yes you are correct about there being a lot of others to do. I think if I did another one I would just use the w.o.f. 77 monte carlo kit and not worry about the chassis. I would still need to get a 1/25 scale amt kit like the thunderbird to get the right tires and wheels. The aftermarket tires I think are 1/24 and don't look right under the fender wells on this body. The hood would stay shut as well.
  22. Very nice reproduction of the real car but not quite right for the first win car. The tires did not have eagle on them and the windshield supports were on the inside of the windshield plus some other things like the contengencies , but still real nice.
  23. Ronnie I sold my Tom Pistone replica to his daughter and really missed having it later so I do not sell them anymore. Now if Junior wanted one of them I might have to reconsider.
  24. looks like they got the blue too dark on the diecast. That's why I like to build my own replicas. Thanks again guys for replying to the first WIN build.
