Fonzie jumped over the shark on water skis. He jumped over a bunch of garbage cans on his motorcycle...although I think that was a triumph. Still want to see the diorama though...😁

Pretty sure you have your answer, just wanted to say that I am really liking the red exhaust. Gonna have to start painting my exhaust red. 😁 -
On the don't paint it right away topic, I agree with everything said, but.... I will sometimes put a light coat of primer on just so that when I test fit I can see where the friction points are and know where I need to shave off a little here or there.

Too cold to paint still so I guess it's time to accessorize the interior a little. -
What would YOU like to see as a model
Beans replied to JeroenM3's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I second the Ranchero. In particular the mid to late 70's variety. Also a 1968 Toronado. -

I liked the back window the way it was. 😂 As far as the turbos go, They look cool. I go with creative. My knowledge of turbo history is pretty limited. Also pretty sure there are no inspectors for the cannonball. -
When you say 2X do you mean 2K clear or are you talking about that rattle can rustoleum 2X?

I resemble that remark. Had to repaint a closet door because of it.

This is totally just my opinion and nothing more. It does look in scale. It looks a little too shiny at least for that application. I could definitely see in under the hood, on either side of the firewall, or in the engine bay, or even as a headliner. It seems a little much for the entire floor. Just my thoughts. Floor mats would definitely break it up some. -

Thank you. I think I enjoy doing interiors more than overall bodies. They sure are. Worked pretty well overall. Better than fighting with the PE parts. -

Thank you. I already gave up on the fuel lines. HA! I avoid ship models of any kind for that exact reason. I have a wooden sailing ship kit around here somewhere that never made it past basic hull assembly. -

It took every bit of patience I could muster but I finally got the wiring done. Now to determine if I want to punish myself even more and do fuel lines..........
