  1. Cool project! I watched the Luca Cee review of this, didn't realize how cool this kit was. Are you going to use those wierd corvette wheels (on a 57 chevy) or something else?
  2. Thanks Tim. I knew that it was a bbc from the revew, I just wanted to make due with the engine it comes with because it's more fun that way?. That's also why it's called "MORE accurate" it's not perfect but it does the job.
  3. Amazing work, the 64 galaxie is one of my favorite cars. So, someone must not have liked the vinal top. Because it ain't there no mo.
  4. Amazing work as usual. In your WIP you can really tell the work you put into this promo style chassis to make it look really good.
  5. Thank you. I do agree it does look a little toy-ish, Round 2 did a great job redoing the rear wheel wells from the original. I think that in of itself makes it look a lot more realistic.
  6. Awesome! I love it when people use random stuff and make them into cool stuff like that.
  7. Yeah, we probably blame AMT a little to much for the stuff they did. Besides they gave us something to make problems with, then solve them our self, we should be thanking them.?
  8. Thank you Sir.
  9. Oh yeah! ? It's AMT'S fault.?
  10. Here's another update. Got the wheels done. I sprayed them with some satin finish clear coat then put some black wash on them, personally I think it looks way better. I also added some blue Sharpie to the bearing covers. The wheelie bars came on the chrome tree, that means I had to strip them. Painted them white then did some detail painting. heres a moch-up of the engine bay without the inner fenders moched-up. I also did some modifications to the headers, now they look like SBC headers. Oh and the collectors almost did not exist so I made some out of plastic straw. Again, thanks for looking, comments are much appreciate. FMC66
  11. Saw a 55 thunderbird, a plymouth duster, a project bug, and a 65 gto that I wasn't able to get a picture of. Id say is a good day for car hunting.
  12. Oh yes, I am very excited for '30-sumthin' truck thingy! Those wheels you got look really cool. What's gonna be the power plant?
  13. That rust looks so good. Did you paint it black than apply the rust powder or how did you do it?
  14. I listen to the beach boys all the time. My favorite are their car songs like 409, Little Duece Coupe, Shut Down, Little Honda, Cherry, Cherry Coupe, Custom Machine, and This Car of Mine there might be more I am missing. I don't know but they just strike that car, that hot rod nerve. Here's a Playlist I made. (With Beach Boys songs) https://spotify.link/PAZDAmulSJb
  15. I use 30 awg off of Amazon. You get rolls of 5 colors for $13 Here's a link
  16. I think the majority of us are. ?
  17. Definitely a subject that doesn't get covered much. I also think I found the guy on CGTrader. He has a lot of interesting subject maters, but sadly no FoMoCo products?.
  18. Yes I wonder... ? Good job on the paint, it just pops!
  19. Amazing work! Everything looks so cleanly installed.
  20. Nice job on the shiny stuff. Just realized this, that's the same color scheme I did my 1/16 scale 57 chevy convertible (original release).
  21. Nice! Excited to see where this goes.
  22. Cool project. I love your work so that automatically means I'm following.
