  1. Don't get those, try this new stuff called fusionfirm chrome. Its on Amazon for $10, shines like revell and after 72 hours can be handled, also comes with a clear coat. Here it is on a 65 falcon bumper. (Can be brushed or airbrushed)
  2. Looks cool, now you need a mustang 2 front suspension to go with that motor.
  3. I hear ya. I cut my finger open with a razer saw shortening a gas tank this past week. Went through the fingernail, I heavily concidered supergluing the top together but a tight wrapped bandaid worked just fine.
  4. Nice job on this one, loved following along with this build. Wheels look amazing, along with the motor and intake.
  5. Here's the haul from the MIME NNL 6 hosted by the glue brothers club. A moebius 65 comet, moebius 65 chevy 2 gasser, moebius 66 f100, amt 34 ford 5 window, amt 61 ranchero, a revell 57 ford wagon, a tamiya paint stand, and a built up monogram t all for $100. I also made quite a few new friends at the show, being as it was my first model show. One of those friends is someone I never expected to meet, an aussie, Alan Barton. I got to talkin' to him about the car scene down there (literally ). He brought some nice models that I admired. But at the end of the show he gave me some of his vacuum formed models, a streamliner land speed car, 2 amt roadster tonneau covers, a model a track nose, a model a belly pan, and a custom fiat dragster body. All realy cool bodys and definitely appreciate him givin' them to me.
  6. Man, that cars just got the right everything. Right wheels, right stance, and right motor!
  7. Now you have an excuse to build a new model body on it for "show".
  8. Man, so cool that you can see the bicycle fenders off the firewall! Looking good.
  9. Change in humidity is the enemy of precision (my freaking deadbolt lock outside).
  10. Shoot, I already read the whole thread. I've been following when it started, completely missed that.
  11. Another Ford guy, nice! (Take a glance at my user name)
  12. I did some sink marks on my 63 galaxie. Have had it sitting for about a week and a half. It's nice and solid now. Used 3m spot putty (some wet sanding after fully cured removed that red in the sanding marks).
  13. I just got some of this stuff. Here are 2 coats on a 65 falcon rear bumper. Just one question, has anyone tryed this in an airbrush?
  14. I think he likes all the shades of green.
  15. Yeah, I don't think im gonna restore it, way to much for what its worth. Now, I could potentially kitbash the body and interior with the amt 62 thunderbird.
  16. Dove into the deep end on this one, shortened the 66 fairlane chassis to fit in my 66 falcon. I also had to scribe the original engine bay out to put the massaged fairlane one in. I used the fairlane chassis because the 66 falcon is basically a shortened fairlane, heck, on the 2 door posts they share the same door. This kit is going to be built to replicate my father's first car. I need to print some magnum 500's so I can get it in the moch-up stage.
  17. Man, I don't know what it is with the rubber band tires (what I call them) these days. I just like good ole big meats. Like this...
  18. Pretty cool, that grille looks to be from a 60 ford starliner.
  19. Yeah, printing plates turns out pretty well with the ACME plate maker. Here are some I made for my 63 galaxie.
