Thanks everyone for your comments on the Mustang. Being one of my all time favourite cars, I was hoping it would turn out well. Again, thanks. Appreciate it. ??

Thank you. ??

???

I didn’t set out to change the stance on purpose, but because I had to modify the suspension a little to mount the US Thrusters, I’ve altered it by default. I have heard that the front wheels poke out a little too much on this kit. Thanks for your compliments.??

That’s a really sharp, clean looking build of one of my favourite Chevs. Nice work. ?? Cheers,Stu.

That display of both the race and street versions in the last pic showcases both the cars and the engines perfectly. Two Chargers to be proud of. ?? Cheers, Stu.

G’day Michelle, nicely done modern interpretation of an old Aussie classic.?? Cheers, Stu.

G’day everyone, another recent one. Probably my favourite Ford ever, just love the look of the 67/68 fastbacks. It went together well, just a little putty above the LH headlight, finished in Tamiya TS-7 for Wimbledon white with TS-8 red for the interior trim. I sourced the torque thrusters from the Revell 32 5 window kit ( I plan on using other wheels on the 32 ) . Wished I’d photographed the interior as a fair bit of detail work went into it, anyway thanks for looking. Cheers, Stu.

Very nice, what scale is it? 1/25? Cheers, Stu.

Ooo, that is nice. That paint is like glass.?? Very cool looking custom. Cheers, Stu.

A P76 force 7? Now that is rare. Only a few of those were made. If you can pull that off, I’d be interested to check it out.??

That surface rust on the front fender looks so realistic. ?? Cheers, Stu.

That looks very nicely finished with excellent patina. I like the look of an old faded pickup, it’s a finish I’m trying to perfect on my truck builds. Again, looks great.?? Cheers, Stu.

G’day Michelle. You’ve captured the look of the XB GT coupe nicely, especially around the front and side profiles. You must put a lot of planning into these. Looks great. Cheers, Stu.

Cheers mate, thanks for the advice.??

You’ve done a great job there Michelle. I had an XA Falcon with the GS rally pack back in the 80’s ( wish l still had it! ) I’m enjoying checking out your builds. Keep ‘em coming.?? Cheers, Stu.

You had my attention at “57”! I do love a 57 Chevy and you’ve done a great job of this one. I remember building this kit as a kid and recently bought the re-release from MPC. I like the smooth look with the Bel-Air side trim removed. ?? Cheers, Stu.

Great work on a classic Aussie muscle car. Nice choice of colour with the electric blue. What was it like to assemble? I’ve heard some say the plastic used is a little resistant to normal styrene glue. I’ve got the DDA LJ Torana but haven’t built it yet. Cheers, Stu.

G’day David. Great Vette you’ve got there. Love the US Anson style wheels on it, a real period touch. What base, if any did you use under the Tamiya pearl green? I have a 65 Impala kit that I think would look good that colour. Again, nice work.?? Cheers, Stu.

G’day everyone, thank you for your kind words on what was probably the most frustrating build I’ve done to date. Nice to know some of you guys are familiar with this kit and that there are some fit issues with it and that it wasn’t all down to me. It hasn’t put me off building another one, I’d like to do a split bumper version at some point to go with this one. Cheers, Stu.

I looked it up, you posted it just before I joined the forum. That’s awesome mate, the saddle coloured interior trim looks great against the gold body. ??

That looks beautifully detailed and finished, l especially love the interior. I’ve never had a lot of success working with resin, so l admire your work on the body. I always wondered why the 67/68 hardtop shape hasn’t been kitted by a big kit brand, I’d certainly buy a couple if it was. Cheers, Stu.

Love the details on the Hemi. You say that you plan on building more Cudas in high impact colours , l say bring ‘em on. I look forward to seeing them. ?? Cheers , Stu.

Well, if l could find a way to shrink myself to the same scale as that Corvette, I reckon I could get in the drivers seat, and that it would start up and l could drive off in it, it’s that realistic! Cheers, Stu.

G’day everyone, Here’s another build of mine. This was my fourth car build and boy, didn’t this one put up a fight! Should’ve realised it was a bad omen when l opened the box and the body was warped and the roof had a slight indent in it. After repairing that, the back window wouldn’t fit properly and the interior assembly had to be trimmed in a couple of places to fit. If it wasn’t for the fact that I’m a big fan of the gen2 Camaro/ Firebird series, I would’ve done Hulk smash and binned it. Must’ve got a bad copy l guess or something l did wrong, but I persevered and this is how it turned out, finished in Tamiya TS-21 gold as it was closest to factory Autumn gold. With TS -13 clear. Thanks for looking. Cheers, Stu.
