  1. Oh man that thing is sick! What engine do you have in it?
  2. Yeah I'm the same way, although I would say Toyota is my favorite.I have a toyota, chev, plymouth and ford right now. In the past I've had lots of different brands of car.
  3. Oh no, sorry for you loss
  4. Very cool, I love the CRX. Theres a red one near where I live of the same vintage as your kit, the car even looks unmodified.
  5. I guess I should show the rest of the fleet. First is my daily 07 focus then my 95 S10 and last my long time project 99 SRT4 swap neon
  6. Thanks Alan. In Canada Celica is pronounced like that. Must be the metric way to pronounce it lol
  7. Nice Triumph! I got to work on this one a while ago at my work.
  8. Thanks fellas! I took an outdoor photo of the truck today, The color looks more accurate here
  9. Just took my Celica out for its first drive of the year, worked great!
  10. Thanks guy! I find the brush guard and winch on this kit to be over sized and it blocked the view of a lot of detail on the front end.
  11. Wow! That looks great, I love it!
  12. I just finished up this AMT 1980 Toyota Pickup snap kit. Its painted Toyota Cream. Nice detail on the parts but being a snap kit a lot of it is molded into the body. The only mods on this one are I cut off the rear bumper and removed the molded in winch and push bar from the from bumper. Thanks for looking!
  13. This is in my local pick n pull.
  14. You can download a photobucket link fix onto your browser. Some photos will still not work but it does restore a good amount of them.
  15. Looks fantastic, the weather is amazing on this one.
  16. Looks great, I love the color! Are those wheels and tires from the kit?
  17. The body is coming along, still lots left to do.
  18. I also have gotten rid off the molded in brush guard and winch from the front bumper. I'm going to try to detail the molded in headlights but if that doesn't work out I may drill them out. I have the same tire issue, I would assume they are all like that.
  19. Thanks for the comments everyone! It would be funny to swap a ford 429 to make this vette "box stock" haha.
  20. Thank you. I with there was a full detail version of this truck so I could build the 22R.
  21. Here is my progress so far on this Toyota truck. All the parts are painted now except the front bumper which I still have to finish. The detail work on the interior and body still need to be done also but its coming along pretty good. This is a curbside snap kit so the part count is pretty low but the molded in detail is very nice on this kit. There were some sink marks on both bedsides right before the tail lights and the rear roll pan is supposed to curve in at the bottom but it is straight up and down, besides that its a clean kit with very little flash and it fits together well.
