  1. Very slick. ?
  2. Hi Andrew, unfortunately I no longer have the video. However, I can tell you that the front wheels are the easiest to install. All you have to do is shave down the wheel hubs (where they attach to the rotor/spindle). This will allow them to slide inward. Just make sure you have enough material left on the wheel hubs to attach them to the spindle. If not, you could always mount them flush against the rotors. As for the rear, the axel needs to be shortened. To do this, cut a small section from each side between the differential and the drums. Gonna have to do a little measuring or just remove tiny sections and test the fit. This will allow your wider wheels to fit into the wheel wells. After completing the above step, the leaf springs will no longer attach in their intended locations. Just relocate them in a similar fashion as in photo #12. Hope this is clear enough. Good Luck!
  3. Very fine work. ?
  4. Great looking car.
  5. Nicely done! Looks authentic to the time period.
  6. One word: “Stunning”
  7. Turned out beautifully. Great interior. ?
  8. Absolutely beautiful build with an awesome interior. ??
  9. What a great build! Realistic wheels. Love the partially rolled down windows. ??
  10. Super-realistic!! Great job again Mario.
  11. Beautifully done. Excellent detail on the interior.?
  12. Excuse me while I run out to my local hobby shop… ?
  13. Sharp looking car. Colour suits it perfectly.? Not a kit for the faint of heart. Working doors can be a challenge.
  14. The kit sounds underwhelming, however you’ve produced a really nice sample. Your photography is awesome as usual. ?
  15. I drove a Mercury Bobcat back in the day… appreciate the trip down memory lane. Your build turned out great! I heard the Pinto kits are bears to build with ill-fitting parts. Did you have any problems with yours?
  16. That’s pretty cool.?
  17. Get 'er done. Pretty decent kit to build. The contact points for the front and rear fascia/bumpers are on the small side, but held well with a combination of Tamiya Extra Thin and regular CA glue on top.
  18. Thanks Tom. I agree regarding panel lines. I've made it part of the build process the last half dozen models or so. :^)
  19. I truly appreciate that Rich. I'm not as eloquent as I'd like to be and it's sometimes difficult to express in words something that is a visual media. :^)
  20. Thanks Mario. There are some kits that are worth the extra effort... while on others I'd be more likely to mail it in a bit. ?
  21. Thanks S.R. The colour warmer in the photos than with the eye, but overall I'm pleased with it.
  22. Super-clean build.?
  23. That's a nice looking car... and the interior is great! I've been looking for a nice Jag to build but have shied away because of fitment issues - most often with the Revell offering.
  24. Not sure how I missed this one. Great looking build. You should definitely build a second one with the EVO conversion. Just imagine how nice these two would look sitting side by side on display. ?
