  1. Looking great Mark, I may have missed it but what material are you using and what size??
  2. OK, I'll be the first to comment? Wow A.J., great work on that bad boy. Beautiful paint!! ?
  3. And you continue to amaze my friend. You da master ?
  4. We're not talking rocket science or precision instrument here. I works, the base does slip out fairly easily from top part so when you carry it around with a model on it be sure to hold it from the base. Oher than that it's a simple mechanism and works just fine. I like mine. Just my 2 cents here.
  5. Very cool and superb work on that one Bob. The black headers dedinately look better than if they were white.? Mikee likes it!!?
  6. First time reader of this thread also, As others have expressed Mike, so sorry for your loss . Best wishes to you and get that Pink 'Stang done.
  7. Cool looker, definately unique?
  8. Very nice models of under-appreciated cars, at least in my opinion.
  9. Good idea there John on the transmission mount. Those little mounts are hard to get just right (at least for me)....and that was after it took me a long time to actually figure out exactly where they went?. Continuing to look really good?
  10. Another thing about not putting the front bumper on on this kit first is if you at least didn't test fit it and make necessary adjustments you will take a chance of messing up the nice paint you put on it. Just sayin'?
  11. Cool, pretty close to time to hit the track!!!!!
  12. Looks fine to me Buddy. Glad you went with the black headers too.?
  13. Thanks Mike, good info. I may brave it sometime.
  14. Thanks Roman. I tried it on and off and still struggling with it.
  15. Thanks Steve, and about the hood, I'm pretty sure I checked the air cleaner heigth and it was ok. Gotta be something else, it's done now and in the display case so like they say, it is what it is?
  16. For the type of car it is, the black work!!?
  17. Ya nailed that bad boy Tom, beeeee-utiful??
  18. You are soooooo right Steve. I have only been using it for about 4 years and the BMF still looks fine as I'm sure others will say. If it wasn't so da*n easy to use once you get used to it....... I just ordered the Matte to give it a try.
  19. Well Mike, masking and spraying the Molotow sounds good but, there are some curves and areas that would be hard to do (well at least for me). Also, what happens if you get a bit of bleed thru? I sure would hate to mess up a good paint job.
  20. Well Claude, that certainly is unique. Great work?
  21. Oh yeah Tom, that looks faaaaaan-tastic??
  22. Thanks Roman, but did you glue the bumper on first? I just can't get the bezels to fit flush top bottom and sides at all. Tried with the bumper glued on and now I'm trying to get it in with the bumper off. Freazzling my nerves?
  23. I was watching an older Mecom Auction at Kissamee, FL today and across the block was a 427 Cobra that according to the description was Carroll's actual driver for a while. It was being sold by its third owner and was restored and painted a different color (charcoal gray metallic) than what i was originally. In spite of this, it sold for a cool $5,200,000. Yep thats tight, 5 million 200.000. big ones.
  24. Well ,I never liked the Turbin's but I didn't want to buy wheels for it and found these in my limited stash and thought, well hey, they don't look half bad. I think the blach wash makes them stand out a bit. Thanks Steve.
