  1. Nice weathering, and the chains and interior all look really nice.
  2. Hi Scott. thanks for the compliment. Revell did a really nice job with this motor. The Roush decals are very well done.
  3. I think you are correct about my issue. I need to be more careful. BTW, thanks for responding and I am glad you like the details I have added.
  4. Motor is about done. Having some paint compatibility issues I have never experienced before. I have always used duplicolor clear over duplicolor paint with no issues. This week I am seeing random crackling issues. Hopefully I can get things fixed.
  5. All the curves work well together, the running boards, bed sides, fenders and the shape of the boom.
  6. LIke the belt line detail and how the whole truck fits together so cleanly.
  7. Hi KIt.  Thanks for checking in on my 48 Ranchero.  Any comments or suggestions from you would be appreciated.

  8. Thanks for checking in on me. I added another fan to the radiator so now I have two side by side instead of one in the the middle. FYI The fans are out of the Matt and Deb Hay Thunderbird.
  9. If you happen to have a pair of the custom rear fenders from the AMT Ertl '53 Ford F-100 you may find that the overall shape of those fenders more closely resemble the 1:1 57 Chevy rear truck fenders than the fenders in this kit.
  10. that rear jamb is a work of art. I agree with your comments about opening doors. There is a lot to it when done correctly as you are doing.
  11. Got all the pulley brackets done and the radiator is about finished. I need to do some alignment particularly the power steering pump needs to be moved forward.
  12. I like wheels number 2. That color will be awesome. The windshield and back window can both be a bit tricky.
  13. Hi Francis. Thanks for checking in and the kind words of encouragement.
  14. Built an a/c compressor and bracket from aluminum tubing and sheet.
  15. The inner fenders look amazing.
  16. Very nicely done. Too bad they will be mostly covered up when the door is in place.
  17. Nice work on the springs. It is all coming together quite nicely.
  18. Hi Scott. Thanks for checking in. Glad you like it.
  19. That blue is awesome.
  20. I am anxious to see how your control arms turned out.
  21. Hi Ian. Thanks for checking in. Sounds like you were able to make some control arms for your Camaro. Hope they work out OK for you..
  22. Nicely done. The engine bay is very realistically weathered. The color choice looks good with the chrome.
  23. Bed strips harvested from Amt flip nose 53 pickup and covered in tape used to seal furnace ducts. The wood is basswood with cherry stain and a dozen coats of duplicolor automotive clear polished with Maguire's mirror glaze.
  24. Far out!!!!. Paneling is spot on. That chair is really nicely done.
