bluestringer

Thanks.

Looking forward to seeing this one. I have not built it but would like to in the future, where did you get the kit?

Thanks. It's a slow go getting it finished. My work shed has no AC, and it's hot here in South Georgia, heat indexes 100 and above with high humidity. I can only stay in there for a little while in the early mornings.

Looking great Bob.

Finally finished the engine.

Thanks.

Ok, thanks guys.

Thanks, I had not thought of that. I've seen it at hobby lobby. Would that .080 be the correct size?

Looks great. I too use a silver sharpie for trim, etc. but yours looks better than my wobbly lines.

The Revell 71 Cuda 426 Hemi has indentions in the valve covers for the breathers, but none are included in the kit. Would a piece of sprue be the right scale to make them, it looks a little too large. Does anyone know where to get a couple?

thanks.

Got the body painted. Used a lime green craft paint from Hobby Lobby. Fist time using my airbrush on a body, noticed after my first attempt it was starting to run bad, had to quickly wash it off and start over. Keep messing with the mix and finally got it looking fairly good. Have not cleared it yet, plan on using Rustoleum 2X clear.

Thank you. Thank you.

Nice job. It looks great.

Thanks. Thanks. I think that may be where the clearance issue is.

Nice. I remember that type of stance from back in the day. We would hop up that rear anyway we could, shackles on leaf springs or rubber/metal inserts on coil springs.

Cool. Nice weathering.

Looking great Bob. Looking forward to seeing the finished build.

Got a rolling chassis. Waiting on a distributor to finish the engine. Need to paint the body and finish it. Decided to go with lime green.

I used Purple Power on a couple carbs, took it off in about 30 minutes.

Thanks. It looks great. After looking at the color I did my interior with I'm not sure yellow is the way to go. I'm still thinking on it. Saw one in a lime green that looked real good, may go with that.

Guys I appreciate the craftsmanship some of you put into your builds, but I'm not at that point yet, not going to be cutting and drilling on my build. It's just a basic out of the box build. I welcome any comments on my build, good or bad, here in my work in progress post. Steve....what yellow is that? It's what I had in mind for mine.

Interior is ready..........

No sir, I'm not offended at all. I appreciate the help, and yes it has helped me. At first I was sure it would fit, but I know now that may not be the case. After seeing the carded version with the hose and bottle I will probably get it when I can. I'm not sure the bottle with the HF one would work and the paasche bottle has a metal tube instead of plastic, I like that better.
