  1. thank you Claude, the color is Tamiya TS-52 Lime Green Pearl
  2. There is a new Sheriff in the town of Speedville who's done playing games with the hotrodders in town....lol. All Tamiya colors,used the Foose wheels and tires from the 56 pickup,police equipment came from the revell 57 ford Del Rio wagon and the parts box. Made the front bumper from a push bumper from the AMT '60 Chevy El Camino and some sprue that so happened to be shaped the way that you see here
  3. Thank you Carl,Chris,Jim and Barry for the kind comments,appreciate each one
  4. Thank you Joseph. Lot of the stuff used has been accumulated over time from other dioramas I have built in the past and tore down. You just have to do a search either on ebay or online shopping
  5. Very nice Volare Roadrunner. I remember when those hit the streets,a guy that worked for me at a gas station had a silver one while I had a '75 Duster with a day 2 look. It was like a mini car show here they were parked. The re-release of this kit is getting pricey even though it's not been around for a few years now. I built one and sold it with regrets now

  14. thank you again all for the kind words. Even though the AMT '40 Ford kits have their quirks it's still one of my favorite kits to build.Thank you again for commenting
  15. Thank you Bob,appreciate the comment
  16. thank you everyone for the comments. The rear window molding was done freehand with a fine tip Sharpie, using Tamiya masking tape I masked around the front window molding and used a medium tip Sharpie and then removed the tape immediately. Also used Duplicolor 1K clear over the Orange,no wet sanding or polishing involved.
  17. Awesome looking Mustang Curtis, this kit has been on my radar for sometime. Anything to watch for while building it ?
  18. really sharp build Andy and great work on the detailing. Thanks for showing it
  19. nothing fancy or well detailed. Pretty sure we all know how the trim on these bodies can be difficult to do because of how faint they are. The hood itself was an adventure because there just wasn't enough edge to follow,so all in all it is what it is. Color is Tamiya Orange,used Modelhaus American mags and AMT Parts Pack Goodyear Polyglas white lettered tires. Thanks for looking and Happy Modeling
  20. Hey there Gary thanks for commenting. All the bins came from Harbor Freight, as of now they don't carry the blue and gray ones only the yellow ones
  21. yep,easy peasy. Thank you for commenting John
  22. Revell did the Stacy David Hiboy or Roadster if you will and then released it again
