  1. That is looking bad to the bone. That would be fun down the 1/4 mile.
  2. On yeah, I'm liking the stance on this one. Nicely done on the tach and taillights. I love the color of the carbs. What color and brand paint is that?
  3. Yup, I thought this was going to just be a simple kit this time around but major mods needed.
  4. Killer looking Coronet. The detailing looks nice and clean. Super looking Build.
  5. Good looking Camero. I like the split bumber. The engine bay looks nice and tidy. Great looking build.
  6. Thanks man. Much appreciated.
  7. Much obliged Buddy. Nomads are the cats meow.
  8. I originally thought the wheels & tired I'm using would just fit but it looks like they are to wide and rub the fender opening. So....I cut the axle housing off the leaf springs, shortend the axle house and the leaf springs and reposition them more inboard. Everything is setting up but I'll post pics later of the final fit just to make sure the ride height is what I'm looking for.
  9. Nicely done. I didn't think all the foil work would ever end when I built mine.
  10. Great looking little 28 Ford pickup. It's never to late to go back and detail the engine bay a little.
  11. Great tribute to you Buddies 47 Ford. I did the same thing with my friends 32 roadster.

    ‘65 Chevy II

    I'm liking this Nova. Nice weathering on the body.
  13. I'll bet it did look good. I'm just not a fan of metallic paints.
  14. Thanks David. I bought a can of the TS-11 Maroon that I'll decant and spray threw my airbrush.
  15. How's it coming along on the Hornet Roger?
  16. That Gentleman right there is one kewl looking old school Hot Rod. Nicely done.
  17. I'm diggin the X-4 Blue James.
  18. Much obliged Carl.
  19. Thanks. Yeah, I like the torque thrust wheels.
  20. I hear ya. I'll just grind out the stock exhaust.
  21. ???
  22. Well, it won't be a Gasser but I'm looking at a nice classic street machine.
  23. I appreciate it Steve. A lot of work went into this one.
  24. Thanks Kyle. I may have to pull out the magic wond on this one.
  25. Ok fellows, this Gentleman right here is next up on the bench. This is an old, old AMT kit so a ton of clean up is needed. I have been cleaning and fitting parts since yesterday. I think I have the body, tailgate, and the chassis looking good. I use Tamiya products so I was looking for a maroon color but they don't make it in an acrylic or lacquer in a bottle to airbrush so I bought the TS-11 Maroon and I'll have to decant it and thin it with Mr. Color Leveling Thinner. I have a set of Jay's 21"/20" Torque Thrust D wheels and tires that I think I may use. It's still early in the game so everything at this point is subject to change.
