Awesome.

Nice build. Don't think I've ever seen that kit.

Thanks Mike. My wife is going to have a knee replacement done in a couple of months so I'm gonna try and get a few done before then. Once she has it done and gets home she's going to need my full attention for several weeks so there will be no kit building then.

Thanks David. I used a 2mm Molotow pen. Seems to work well. I got the 1mm also, been using it to highlight interior and other small detail.

Started on this one. Building the drag version, OOB build with some engine wiring. Testor's Yellow Enamel, Revive It Gloss. All comments welcome, thanks for looking.

Fine looking gasser Bob. Nice work.

Thanks Chaz

Been checking prices of some MCW, Dupli-color and others and I think I'll just use my Testors orange. I've got Testors Orange Enamel and Acrylic, I think either one will be ok.

For some reason my Paasche H has stopped working. It blows only air, will not suction up the paint. It will not even spray water. I have cleaned it over several times, there is no blockage. I have tried different bottles and cups, no go. Hole in bottle top is clear. I can't figure it out. It should spray but it does not. Last time I used it was a couple of weeks ago spraying some Testors enamel, cleaned it good before putting it away.

Looking good Bob. I'm looking to get this kit soon.

Thanks. Thanks Mike.

Thanks guys. I'm not a perfectionist, so anything close will work. I'm working on a 69 Nova 350 right now but want something I can use for most of the Chevy engines.

Does anyone make a Chevy engine orange paint? I know Testors use to, but can't find it anymore. I can find it in the Dupli-color engine paint brand at the auto parts store, can that be used on styrene plastic?

Well heck, sorry, didn't see it was already posted.

Apparently HL is clearing out some of their model kits. I was in Tallahassee this morning and stopped in there, got a couple of kits that were regular 29.99 for the clearance price of 7.50.

Thanks David. Thank you. Thanks. Thanks Bob.

Painted with Tamiya Park Green Acrylic and generic white gloss. OOB except for tires and wheels, wired engine. All comments welcome, thanks for looking.

Calling it done.

Thanks. Already finished with this one, but I will keep those tips in mind for the next one.

Slowly getting there.............

Thanks all. No hurry, so I'll keep waiting. Was just wondering.

Thanks Mike. I ordered distributors and carbs. Wanted to try them out. I have used distributors from Connkur and thought they were good. I then tried making my own, but I don't like how they turn out most of the time.

Has anyone done business with MAD? How was your experience? I ordered from them 2 weeks ago and have not heard anything from them.

Thanks Alex. It would look better if it was lowered a bit, but I've already got most of the chassis done and painted. I think the stock tires would have made it look lower. I'm not very good at figuring out how to lower it but I will look at it to see if there is something I can do to get it down a bit.

Rainy and humid today but I got the color on ok.
