  1. Thanks! The body was simply clear coated using Future acrylic floor polish, applied with a foam brush, after decaling. I contacted Keven a Whoopie Kat before decaling and he assured me that his decals are compatable with most any clear coat..... I'd still be a little cautious about using any hot lacquers though!
  2. Here's a little something that I built just for giggles.... Revell's Porsche Boxster snap kit, lowered, shaved and wearing the wheels and tires from Revell's '63 Vette roadster snapper... Paint is HoK "Cinnamon Pearl" from Black Gold.
  3. Very nice!!!!!! Gonna have to get one of those MCW fastback bodies for myself, one of these days!!!!
  4. I started this one on New Year's Eve as part of a club challenge to start something new for the new year..... Resin '60 F100 cab, that a friend of mine cast many years ago, combined with the chassis, box and rear fenders from AMT's '53 F100 and the straight axle from an "old tool" Revell '57 Chevy thrown in to get that "nose high" stance..... Engine will be a Revell Parts Pack based Ford 427 FE with injectors and headers from the parts box.
  5. Here's a look at my latest build........ Using the newly released Challenger F/C from the Model King, the body was painted with Tamyiya "Pearl White" and was then fogged using Sally Hansen "Hard as Nails" #23 "Marine Scene" nail polish. Decals are by "Whoopie Kat" and are, in a word, FANTASTIC! They are very thin and quite easy to work with. (It should be noted that the decals were made to fit the JoHan Challenger F/C kit, so the side graghics don't quite fit the Model King body just right.... Still, they do look great on the finished car, IMHO!) Overall this was a fun build of a somewhat obscure car that I didn't think I'd ever have the opportunity to build model of.
  6. Hi All..... I just thought that I'd introduce myself. My name is Marty Neyrinck, but I'll be stopping in here from time to time as Nitro Marty..... Some of you may already know me, as I am a regular over on a couple of the other forums. I like to build many different types of vehicle from street rods and customs, to pickups and tuners..... But my real passion is vintage drag cars!!!!! Anyway, I'm looking forward to spending a little time here and making new friends!
