  2. Charles, I have to say that turned out really nice I still have my original LRW and Touch Tone Terror and they were rough then to clean up.

  4. I have wanted to build one of these for years so I will be watching real close.........Great Job !!!!!!!
  5. Thanks Cranky, that means alot coming from you
  6. Looks great !! now if I could just get to my sonoma I would be in good shape
  7. Just some progress on the motor and got the wheel wells in and trunk lid I hate wiring engines I would rather foil five cars These are the headers I will be going with and the color borrowed these from GMP site
  8. Keep up the great show Mr Bill this will help alot of people out.
  9. This is how I do all my script so I ran with it.
  10. And that's it ? WHAT COLOR IS IT ?
  11. Well got some more done on the engine and now I know it's a 392 with little tweeks here and there
  12. Great job !!!!!!!
  13. Well, what ever flavor of green it is, is going to be tasty.
  14. Well here's the start and I am just playing with the wheels right now and yes it has a Hemi. I shot some primer on her and I really like it .... NOOOOO not a Ratrod !!!!! I am stripping all the chrome on the valve covers getting them ready for their treatment. This will be a quick show on how I did the valve covers, first I foiled the fins Shot them with flat black. Then just erased the paint off from the fins and here's how it is turning out so far. Waiting on the headers and carbs to come out of the stripper so I can get them done and on . This won't be a Bill Geary build but I hope you like it and thanks for looking
  15. Outstanding build of a great Hotrod.
  16. Mr Bill, I really like what you got going here so keep it up this will help alot of people
  17. Well thanks guys I am glad you like it and for not painting black again is what you see is alot of time wetsanding and polishing, Black just shows every little thing in the paint so it has to be perfect, and for the front bumper you put the grill and bumper together before you put it to the car and you don't see that it sets it at an angle but I was told that they all do it and it can be corrected by sanding the nose where the bumper hits the grill nose. This is before sanding and polishing their is orange peel all down the sides after
  18. This will be my one and only Black paint job As you can see I tried to create some cheater slicks for her and the driveshaft is scratch built from aluminum tube Thanks for looking and to see the WIP just go to the link Visit My Website
  19. Can I Cruz with you in mine
  20. And that is why we don't get anything built, because we try to hard and just walk away.
  21. Oh Boy !!!! look at all these cats I can chase
  22. Just thought I would show you guys what I picked up this month between my local hobby shop and the local flea market. Ok these are the LHS buys And these are the ones I found at the local Flea market I have always wanted a ALA-Kart now I have one I always watched the guys build these ford GTs on line and said I had to try one but never did, so I guess I will be doing one now. The guy at the Flea market still has a Revell 05 zO6 Vette and a Dodge D50 PU that I am thinking of grabbing......LIKE I NEED ANOTHER MODEL Well went back and got the c6 Vette
  23. I have had this since I was a kid and I have to do a restore on it one of these days
  24. This is my desk in the corner of the Toyshop and I don't care how much space I have I always end up working on a 12"x12" space I guess It's the nature of the beast This is the whole Toyshop a 12'x12' shed that I like to call HOME that I share with this guy He's not much of a talker he just sits there with that dumb grin on his face. My Dremel is the most inportant tool I own next to my mag. light This is my other Dremel but this one has been turned into a paint mixer and that is all it gets used for
  25. That was so coooool to see them reverse engineer the black widow roadster from the model
