  1. I like this one, the wheels are just great and the color is classy. Great job. Would be great if you posted a photo of all your cobras. you might need a wide angle though.?
  2. Thanks guys, appreciated.
  3. I remember back when I was a boy, There was a doctor who had a 59 caddy. We did not see Cadillacs often in my small village back then. I was impressed by the car but scared of the doctor. This kit is great, it builds into a nice model. Paint is Tamiya pearl green coated with TS13. BMF for the trim as the decals were too matt to be useful. thanks for having a look.
  4. Nice to see something different, very well built. great job
  5. Wow, I really like your builds and they way you photograph them. Perfect paint job. ??
  6. Welcome to your new playground Ethan.
  7. Beautiful vette. thanks for sharing your thoughts on the kit. I have one in the stash I haven't decided yet on the color. Yours turned out really great. The hood issue is not uncommon , I had some builds that the hood did not close properly. Great job on the photography as well.
  8. Really beautiful, that color really glows. The interior is awesome. great job on this Jim.
  9. Another great rodder from you Bob. That blue is really nice. Very well put together. Now go burn some rubber. ? ?
  10. Always a pleasure to look at your builds Claude. This one is no exception. The wood detail is amazing. A really beautiful piece of work.?
  11. Beautiful lowrider and striking colors, great job on your first post.
  12. Great looking Ford. Nicely put together, Nice color and great job on the window trim.
  13. Sharp looking camino. Color combo looks good on it. Beautiful build.?
  14. That's a sharp looking Chevelle. Great color choice.
  15. Looks really great in white, as the saying goes, one man's trash is another man's treasure. You did a really good job on it and yes this kit can be challenging, but having build a few of these, there are way worse kits out there. What matters to me is the body shape, if it's good, the rest is just extra work to fix things. A challenging kit can be greatly rewarding, what you did with yours is a perfect example.
  16. Very nice build, I have one in the stash, haven't decided on the color yet.
  17. Beautiful Ford, sorry to hear you had problems but it came out superb despite the issues. Great job.
  18. Another beautiful cobra Ray. The color fits it pretty well. I like the black trim treatment.
  19. What a cool project, your efforts obviously paid of seeing it complete like this. Great job on assembly and finish. ?
  20. Wow Harry, this is one gorgeous build, looks like the real deal. Absolutely stunning. ??
  21. Thanks Bob, I agree, the 150 series is a nice departure from the usual Bel air line (which is just as beautiful BTW). Thanks Jim. Thanks Lee Thanks Rusty, it is box stock, I did not tweak anything, the parts all lined up perfectly. Thanks Mike, if you haven't open your kits, I heard that the first run they released back then had a few kits having the wrong body, they had the bel air instead of the 150, it was quickly fixed but that would be a bummer. Hope you got the right one. Thanks Ray, appreciated.
  22. I've had this kit since they came out. I finished it last year. I don't know how accurate it is but they go together real easy. I like the black&white combo on this model. Tamiya Spray lacquers black and pure white were used. Top coat of TS 13. Straight out of the box. Thanks for having a look .
  23. Beautiful and nicely put together. I can't wait to build mine. Great job on the paint.
