  1. This thing must weigh a ton Great build ?.
  2. Stop posting picks of real cars ?. Great build I feel like I could hop in it and make a 5 second pass.
  3. This was some kids vision in the 60s but he didn't have the right tools to make it happen. You made that boys dreams come to LIFE. Nice 60s build. I wish I had enough dough to even buy one of those 3 in 1s.
  4. Oh yes that guy is an inspiration. As you said I'm always on the edge of my chair for the next video. I also need to start doing white glue mockup.
  5. I didn't know what to post under for questions But this one is definitely on my to-do
  6. I haven't built it yet. I have all of the stuff for it like decals. The top one is the prototype of the model. The bottom is the one I want to build. I couldn't diside what topic to post it in so I just posted it in this because it was closest to my finger.
  7. Hi I was wondering if your allowed to post electric model trains in here. Thanks FMC66
  8. This is going to have to be Postponed because of something that has come up.
  9. Looking awesome, What color did you use on the interior and what color for the body? I'm going to build a stock thunderbolt and they had an interior color that is gold-ish silver like your interior.
  10. I made some templates then glued them on, sprayed primer, then finished sanding. How's it looking? FMC66
  11. I think I will go with Roosters method because I don't want to Butcher the body anymore than it is.
  12. Hi again I have a question How would I go about fixing the bottom windshield sill. It cracked when I was getting the windshield out. As you can see I tried using bondo glazing buddy, I don't know what I was thinking. The bottom one came out with the fire wall so I'm good there. FMC66
  13. Yeah that was just sized in Google docks and printed on paper
  14. Ooo, I've seen that to. That must be hard to work with
  15. Thanks. The Pledge gives it a glossy but not super glossy look. It looks just like vinyl. FMC66
  16. I just heard from the Luka Cee Chanel review of the kit on YouTube that white was the rarest one, I also know that if it wasn't white it was probably orange and those were all in the Sox and Martin version. But that signed copy is awesome, never get rid of that kit.
  17. Nice 55 I dont have the nerve to part out kits just for the chassis but good work.
  18. This is a kit that I inherited from my Grandpa. In the lot of my dad's and Grandpa's cars that was sitting at my grandparents basement sense the late 90s. I found this (the tires are from the parts bin I just used them for a moch up (im missing those and one front wheel)). A plus about this car is that it was never painted. After doing some research it seams as though the molded in white version was the rarest (correct me if I'm wrong). But the decals were still there so I removed them with micro sol. The windows were a PAIN to get out the back was the easiest, the front took some prying and the drivers side a pillar came off with the windshield but some glue fixed that. I was also missing the rear axle so I used a Dana 60 rear end, I don't know what kit it came out of though. Here it is in primer. The interior was also missing the roll bar so I made one under the candle light(and heat?). I also sprayed it with rustoleum camo flat black and I'm planing on putting pledge on the dash, seats, and door cards for a vinyl look. Advice is welcome. Thanks for looking. FMO66
  19. Yeah, You wouldn't believe how many times i watched the movie or looked at references to get the car right.
  20. Thank's I appreciate it
  21. Hello guys, I just wanted to show you a little project I did over Christmas This is a replica of John Milner's 32 Ford duece coupe. It is a amt/ ertl or a mpc edition of the kit. I got it in a lot of 3 other built up 30s fords. I never liked how the wheels looked on this kit, so I traded them out for chrome reverses off of a 70s release revell 55 chevy (which I turned into a 2 lane blacktop 55). The engine is also from the revell 55, I don't know where the intake came from but I didn't have the correct scoops or carbs in the parts box (crazy I know) so I 3d printed them. The plug wires are thred from a sewing kit and the fuel lines are orthodontic rubber bands. The headers are made out of abs 3d printer filament and the exhaust is out of the spirit of 57 gasser shortened and bent over a candle. This is what it looked like when I got it from the lot(those wheels are really not accurate). Thanks for looking folks. FMO66
  22. That duece has a awesome stance. Ceep it up.
