  1. Thanks John...Joseph says to use acrylic, looks like you used enamel. They did come out great!
  2. As anyone on here that has bought these tires from Joseph at Fireballmodelworks knows, the red line (or white stripe) has to be painted on. Josephs instructions say for the red line, paint the groove with white acrylic then after drying red over that. My question is how in the world do you get the paint in the tiny groove without getting it on the sidewall? Or does it matter, considering any paint on the sidewall likely could be wiped off. Just wondering if anyone has worked on these.
  3. Super coo Ken. Are those the kit headers??
  4. Ha Ha, did a search for the model and evidently very few available and wow, the price...too rich for my old pocketbook?
  5. Well Buddy, at least you got it done and it looks just fine. ?
  6. Looks real good Rico....Snap kits can be detailed quite nicely!!
  7. Well done Bill, not something you see every day for sure!!
  8. I'm thinking for mine I would like to do it as one of the new generation matchracers. I guess it's what they are called.
  9. Lookin good my Friend!!
  10. Ha, TransAmMikey likes it? Gotta get one of the versions of that kit!! Great job David?
  11. I was interested to see also. I have the Nicholson drag car kit to do.
  12. This looks to be about the correct ride height for the car Yours is a bit on the high side but looks good Mario!!
  13. Very impressive Bob. I seldom look at heavy truck models but glad I looked at yours. Great job?
  14. Well shoot James. I had to re-paint mine after screwing it up. When I mess up or get frustrated and give up I seem to get right back to it. You can do it! ?
  15. For me, 71 454-4-speed convertable 'Vette that the previous owner had put in a hotter cam and headers. Had original size tires. Man that was one exciting ride when you punched it!!
  16. Thats gonna be a great looker!! Like the roof.
  17. Fun time huh Buddy. I can't remember the issues I had other than my brilliant idea of cutting off the hood, but hey my 76 year old brain is a bit lacking now?? You'll get er done!!
  18. Looks good James. As you may remember I like to use Future (I still have the original stuff) and in the pic it looks a bit dull. I find it takes several coats to get a deep shine if thats what you want.
  19. Cool simple lookin' '34!!
  20. Yep, it is a good looking GTX, nice job Ken!!
  21. Defiately a sleeper, cool!!
  22. You nailed "the look" on that '56. When I looked at the first picture I thought it was a real car. Great job Nick?
  23. That may be the most incredible collection of cars I've ever seen. Just WOW!!
