  1. Now that would be fun, backdating one to the little deuce.
  2. Thanks man, I was not expecting it to be that good, but what do you know.
  3. Looking pretty good there, some chrome reverses would look bitchen on that. Of course I think they look good on all hot rods.
  4. Cool kit, wasn't aware of this one. I actually saw one of these at a show.
  5. Decanted some of this rustoleum clear. Its pretty good and dries hard. The only problem is it comes out very orange peely from the rustoleum nosle.
  6. Oh I know, I really appreciate it. I was really surprised at the price and couldn't say no. I also took it apart when I got home and it practically fell apart.
  7. Broke down this original amt 28 sedan, came apart so well, the original build was very light on the glue. And I included a pick of everything that was in the box.
  8. I gave AI a prompt of lions drag strip a pick of my moch up and the color of my test shot. The color is actually really close.
  9. Went to a swap meet, was planning on only getting a couple kits, im proud to say I stuck with that. Got a revellogram 30 woody, big $10 bag of tires, and an amt 28 sedan. The woody i got from a friend so I got it for $15. The bag of tires was a great deal, got it for the slicks and turns out there were 30 amt goodyear blue streaks. And the 28 is one of my grails, its a survivor, build pretty clean. But I practically stole it from the guy for $30. This was also cool, the guy I bought the 28 ford from had this box of 1967 annual kits, already sold unfortunately.
  10. Thanks guys, wasn't expecting this to be dug back up.
  11. Dang that sucks man. 3rd times the charm!🤞
  12. Got the body of my willys in the candy coat. Looks good right now. Got to let it bake in the dehydrator for a little.
  13. Yup, Android here and no troubles.
  14. There are two ways of doing things, correctly, or again.
  15. Man that's great, I love the Iowa license plate! I'm kinda partial to it.
  16. No, its actually Tamiya acrylics. X-26 clear orange over X-34 metallic brown, the color the moch-up is in right now.
  17. I just had to do another mochup. The frame and suspension is complete and the engine is in its final resting place.
  18. Thanks, thats just the base color for the candy though. This is what its gonna look like. Although its kinda growing on me.
  19. Amazing work on that blown sbf. Using anything but the kit intake onto that motor is almost necessary because of how common a double pumper small block ford is. I grafted a flathead tri carb setup on mine. As for the valve covers, I like the idea of making them taller. My dad runs a set of tall finned ansen sbf valve covers. I will eventually need to make some of them when I get to working on my the replica of my dads falcon.
  20. Got some paint work done on my 40 willy gasser wheels. I wanted magnesium with using what I have, 50/50 testors graphite gray metallic and testors flat steel. I think im satisfied with the results.
  21. I fully agree with Alan, I would also consider using one out of a Revell 32, they are all recessed firewalls but they might need trimming.
  22. I was looking at gasser suspension photos and realized that I forgot the steering link. Oops, here it is with a revell 32 for steering box.
  23. Thanks guys, it might be a while before I start this one, got to finish some other projects first. But when I get back on it I will make sure to update you guys.
  24. Thanks Tim! That has so many cool parts in it, great for potential kit-bashing. Now with the way Moebius is rolling and how they make so many variants of there kits, one can only hope for a better 64-65 falcon since they are essentially the same car when it comes down to the bones. Better than the Trumpeter in body proportions and better than the can get no more AMT kit.
  25. I didn't know those were out yet, now I NEED one. That is beautiful!
