  1. That is looking great. I built this kit a few months ago, but didn't go into many mods like you are. I do wish I had lowered it. I did notice the small tail pipes and fabricated some pipes running out in front of the rear wheels that look a little better. My grandson was here today and saw the built model and wanted it, so it's sitting on his shelf now. I plan to pick up another one, and for next time you have gave me some good tips on lowering it and installing a different engine. Looking forward to seeing your finished work.
  2. Yours looks great. I built it as a dune buggy, had lots of fitment problems. Didn't come out very good.....
  3. Thanks for the photos, they help. The next to the last one looks like what I've got except mine is 2 stacks and that one's 4. I have the little box at the front like that. I can just run a line from the fuel pump to it, then 2 lines off that to the stacks.
  4. Thanks. I've got what looks like three connections on the fuel pump, one at the bottom, two at the top. I'm assuming the bottom one is the return, and the one of the top ones is the inlet, the other the outlet? Where would I connect the line at the injectors? Looks like there is a small distribution block on the front of the injectors. I may give it a try if I can find the right wire to do it with. It would not be perfect, but it may give it a better look.
  5. My first one also Bob. Seems like a simple kit. The frame is all one piece, so no fiddling with it. Nice looking engine with it, I'll add some plug wires, but it will mostly be OOB build. Thought about some fuel lines but not sure how these things are plumbed.
  6. Started on this little dragster I picked up at Ollie's.
  7. Beautiful little Vette. Well done.
  8. Great looking 32. Nice work.
  9. You can put paint on a pencil eraser and use it like a stamp for the raised letter emblems.
  10. Mona Lisa Twins cover While My Guitar Gently Weeps..........................
  11. Well, this one is back in the box. Lots of fitment problems with it but I was working through them, then got to the mating frame and body and could not get it together, broke a bunch of stuff off. Seems I been having problems with my last few builds. Think I will take a few weeks off from building.
  12. Came out great Bob. That color combo is right on. Nice work.
  13. Thanks Thanks Chaz. Thanks Carl. Thanks.
  14. Got the Tamiya Lemon Yellow on the body...................
  15. Looking good Chaz. Great color combo. I like the hood top on with the sides off.
  16. I don't usually add heater hoses, but I decided I was on this build. I could add them there, but it's no big deal deal I'll just leave it as is. Thanks.
  17. Looking good. I have this kit, and will probably go with the dune buggy build.
  18. Looking good. I have one waiting, so I'll be watching. Top spoon green will look great.
