  1. That turned out pretty nice there Eric. I have one in my stash. That black looms pretty nice. What paint did you use?
  2. Dang Ray...hate to hear that. I had a 56 Ford pickup I dropped on the garage floor. I walked away from it and my granddaughter said she picked it up for me. Bad thing was, she only picked up the body. My wife found the rest of it when she pulled her car into the garage and ran it over.
  3. Thanks Charlie. You have to make sure your in a good mood the days you work on it ?
  4. Boy this is such a good looking Gasser. I may have to move mine up a little closer. Great looking build
  5. Very nice-looking Chevy's. I remember the traction bars and lowering the leaf springs down in the rear so well.
  6. Fantastic looking Chrysler. The cream color interior goes really well with the body color. Nicely done.
  7. Thanks Michael. I'm pleased with how it turned out.
  8. That stance looks pretty nice.
  9. Thanks James. I appreciate it man.
  10. Nice looking Gasser there Ray. That color looks pretty nice.
  11. I do appreciate it there Buddy.
  12. Thanks Craig.
  13. I hope everything gets worked out and we start getting a good product.
  14. Nice looking Corvette.
  15. Nice looking Maverick.
  16. Nice looking. Love those Pro Street setups.
  17. Nice looking Comet. I like the old school drag cars.
  18. Very nice little collection you have there. All 3 look great but I'm drawn towards the little blue Hot Rod.
  19. Thanks Ray.
  20. Ok fellows. I waited 3 hrs and I shot another coat of the Clear Red on the body. This really made a big change. I'm a happy camper now.
  21. Thanks Buddy. I'm not really worried about the orange peel, it's the scratches that I won't be able to get out.
  22. Thanks James.
  23. Its Tamiya paint which is a synthetic lacquer. I'll wet sand it after I shoot the clear on.
  24. Well fellows.....the verdict is still out on this one. I wet sanded the Silver Leaf with 10,000 & 12,000 grit due to some trash out then washed and dry. Once I started spraying the Clear Red I could see the sanding marks so it forced me to spray a 3rd coat of the Clear red. Still not sure why that sand paper would leave marks. There is also heavy orange peel. I'm going to let it level out and cure and take another look at it but at this point I'm dissatisfied how it came out.
