    Junk yard

    Thanks Gary it was a fun build and i will try to improve on the next one which i am working on now i think it will be called the muscle car junk yard it will have 3 cars in it you may have seen the first one i posted in on the bench it's a Baldwin motion Camaro.
  3. I am not shore what it is either but it's different and to me that's cool, most important is that you enjoyed the build and if others like it that makes it even better.
  4. As i said i really like the way it came out and i just noticed the rubber behind the rear wheel wells gives it that just raced look very cool. i also built this kit and i messed up i glued the body on the chassis and forgot to put in the taillights you are not alone.
  5. Only one commnet it looks very good.
  6. Your Firebird looks great just like one of the street racers from my younger days with the cragar style wheels and traction bars i know i owned a 68 and 67, one small nit pick you have the lower front suspension on backwards the tab under the oil pan goes forward, it still looks great.

    Junk yard

    Here are a bunch of pics of my junk yard i finished it about a year ago it's my first and only diorama, it doesn't really tell a story but there are a lot of little details to see and it should keep you busy for a few minutes finding them. Any and all comments welcome and yes i know the spider is a little out of scale think of it as a large tarantula.
  12. Your Shelby build looks good i like the contrast of the black and blue stripes, i also checked out your website very nice.
  13. That's just to cool great work on your Merc wagon.
  14. Thanks guys, I prefer the early Shelby Mustangs as they were lighter in weight and handled better than the big block cars.
  15. Wow your truck is perfect, the color the interior the engine detail, i wouldn't change a thing.
  16. A very nice build and it has the correct name it is very smooth.
  17. Thanks guys you are correct it is 1/24 scale and not a bad kit for the old tooling, it was a fun build.
  18. I think it looks great and i really like the roof.
  19. A few pics of my Shelby Mustang i really love all of the Shelby cars, i finished this one about 6 months ago. The interior is mostly stock except for the seat belts which you can't see in the pics, most of the mods were under the hood like plug wires and looms valve cover breathers and scratch built air cleaner, fuel lines and a few other details. Any and all comments welcome.

    I love this car it really looks like what the average person would be driving if they had a limmited budget and most of us do.
  21. Your build sounds interesting but as Mark said it will take a lot of work, i say go for it. If you want to see the kit before you start i posted my finished model in the Under Glass section it's abut 6 pages back now under GTO stock car. The pics should give you a good idea of what it looks like and good luck with your build.
  22. I like your build so far i think it has that salt racer feel nice work i to will be watching for updates.
  23. Well the rat rod is back with a small update, most of the work was done on the engine as you can see from the pics i also added the window frame and wood planks to the bed these will have to be weatherd of course can't leave them clean in a rat rod. Any and all comments welcome.
  24. I really like your build and it does look better now that you made those changes. I will be looking for your updates good luck.
  25. Outstanding work from the awsome paint job to the super clean engine details, i am shore you ill do well at the show good luck.
