  1. Nice build Andrew. Colour combo, wheels and stance are spot on. Oregon plates are a nice tribute to your Grandad. Cheers, David. ??
  2. Nice custom build Tom. It looks just like a factory concept car of that period. Colours work well. Cheers, David. ??
  3. Great save Tommy. I'll be rebuilding mine one day. Yours looks to have a chop. The ivory works well against the black. Again, well done. Cheers, David. ??
  4. Nice classic Bruce. I like your detail work. Well done. Cheers, David. ??

    VW Beetle

    Nice build Andrew. I'm starting on my Tamiya Beetle and will be glad if it turns out as nice as yours. Cheers, David. ??
  6. Thanks Philippe, it's Tamiya ts21 gold. Cheers, David. ??
  7. Thanks David. I have some pics of the interior in WIP.
  8. Thanks James. I'll look forward to seeing it.
  9. Thanks Rex. I didn't know about the 67 super snake. The internet only mentions that there 'may' have been some cammers offered by Shelby in 68. Cheers, David. ??
  10. Very cool. Lots of details. I like the manual fuel pump in the cockpit. Great work Bil. Cheers, David. ??
  11. Cool build Gerald. I agree with Dan Hay about fitting the bill of a moonshine car. High power, low key. In Australia we effectionaly call this model Ford the "single spinner" for obvious reasons. Again, cool sleeper. Cheers, David. ??
  12. Thanks Mike. It just goes to show not to trust everything you read online. Cheers, David. ??
  13. Thanks Mark. I bought this kit about 20 years ago as one of a four pack sold at Kmart in Australia. I would have built it long ago if I had known it would look this good built.
  14. Nice build Dave. I love the colour you chose. I painted mine ts22 light green like the box art as that's what attracted me to purchase it. The white interior suits your build. Cheers, David.??
  15. Thanks Robert. Yeah, it's a great kit but the box art doesn't do this kit justice.
  16. G'day all. Here I have my AMT/ERTL 1968 Shelby GT500 which I built about two months ago. I wanted to present it with the rare 427sohc option. I'm not sure if it was a factory option but I believe a few did have this engine. For it to fit, the hood had to be opened up, which I did but opted to use a scoop from my parts box to make it look more like Shelby might have done it if it was offered to the public. Please excuse the messy masking job, I had a bit of trouble with it. Exhaust was built with spare parts but looks wrong. Anyway, thanks for looking. All feedback encouraged and appreciated. Cheers, David ??
  17. Nice build Robert. I like how you include the factory quality assurance markings on the rear axle. Cheers, David. ??
  18. Welcome to the forum Rob. Looking forward to seeing your builds. Cheers, David. ??
  19. Welcome Pasquale. Your models are top class. Looking forward to seeing your works in progress/WIP. Cheers, David. ??
  20. Like bbowser said, it's all about the fun.
  21. Outstanding! These old compacts were popular with the gassers as they were lightweight. The paint is incredible and represents it's 1:1 origins well. I've built this kit way back in the 80s but sadly lost it in a house move. Another nice kit is the revell Thames panel gasser. Mine needs a rebuild but would be well worth it. Again, great British gasser. Cheers, David. ??
  22. Thanks guys. Your kind words are appreciated. ??
  23. Loving that colour. The whole package just looks right. Cheers, David. ??
  24. I've never thought of building a 3rd generation vette but your build has got me thinking. Great job and nice detail. Cheers, David. ??
  25. Nice build James. I like the blacked out hood. I have the AMT 72 Nova and was unsure how to build it. Now I'm sure I'll be building it for the strip. Cheers, David. ??
