  1. Mostly these engines look good, but it sure would have been nice in the case of the Big Daddy Roth Mailbox trike to have had the correct Crosley engine.
  2. p.s. There were a couple of folks asking why my Cobra Chopper looked different. I took a few liberties with this model and it is now only one cobra, rather than the two on the box art. You can see the transformation and up-close photos on my post for this kit.
  3. Well done Terry! I just started on the Pro Shop Phantom Vickie on a lark, and was so surprised to find what fantastic models these are! I ordered the '39 Woody wagon, and may have to get the '57 Chevy as well
  4. Praying for Steve as we speak.
  5. Thank you. Someone else must have agreed because the idea has already been replicated by another of our forum members
  6. Thank you. If you haven't already, check out the thread I did on the history of these trikes and you'll see what this model was based on. It's kind of neat in its own right!
  7. Thank you Christopher, you are very kind.
  8. Total gangster, fantastic!
  9. I also like these kits, and love your rendition. The tires and rims definitely give your build a track-car look, so nerf bars seem like a natural.
  10. Way cool so far...
  11. Totally great build. Just needs a little blowing off, and I'd call the cracked whitewalls part of the charm!
  12. I LOVE everything about this build; a woody Manx with a monster motor, mag wheels, and Hawaiian theme. How could it get better?
  13. Came out beautiful Matt, just like the 1:1 car!
  14. Totally love the build and the 70's vibe. I'm surprised you didn't go with the slanted six with water injection instead!
  15. Tim, thank you so much for sharing these photos, as well as the information on Tom (I for one did not know of him).
  16. Well done Steve! I recently built this one too, and really enjoyed how nice it came out and the level of detail considering it's a quick builder.
  17. The car is beautiful, but the diorama is out of this world!
  18. Looks absolutely stunning to my eyes. Well done! And thanks for the info on the kit as well.
  19. Louis, I see the 1:1 engine from the Rolls Royce, but where is the scale model you are building? Your work is just stunning, both on the 1:16 and the previous 1:24!
  20. Wow, this build and thread are giving me some ideas! Now I gotta get me one of those kits. Maybe a two door sport wagon ala Nomad or perhaps a woodie surfer wagon...
  21. Beautiful. Makes the engine ten times more realistic!
  22. It's coming out great Wolf. Looks like you're putting a 1:1 together! Happy retirement
  23. James, we're always hardest on our own work It came out beautiful, and I particularly like the tires/rims combo. If I may offer one minor observations; the front stance seems a bit high compared to the rear. Is that what you were shooting for, or is it possible to drop the rims on their spindles by a little bit at this point? In any event, great job!
