  1. I can't wait to clear it, it looks really good wet. The interior looks slightly darker under led lighting, when I brought it outside I was surprised. Here's one of my reference pictures
  2. Now I know it's miata based. Thanks. That sherpa is awesome. I want one.
  3. Not entirely sure, might be. I was surprised to see it, mostly classics, a few exotics and tons of new corvettes around where I live. Those things are as common camry's here
  4. Anyone I have known that served and went through things are this way. I worked with a kid that did two tours in Afghanistan, didn't say much about it, you could tell something was right below the surface. He had a T.B.I. and P.T.S.D, medical discharge from the Marines.
  5. The wife and I were checking out yard sales, spotted this across the street.
  6. What I'm using as reference is exactly as you described, I've seen a few others with "stock-ish" interiors where the console,half the dash and seat backs and carpet were black, it looked pretty good. I like the oem look a bit more. Hopefully I can recreate it nicely. Thanks
  7. I think with all the rain we've gotten recently critters like that guy are making more of an appearance. I've been seeing a ton of toads, big ones, tree frogs and now that guy. He's living in the garden by my walkway, I saw them again this morning. Urban sprawl,climate change and all that has pushed a lot of animals away. But my deer are still around, they need to start paying rent.
  8. This is amazing work,way beyond my scope and abilities at the moment. Beautiful work, 3d printing has really opened up a world of possibilities within the hobby.
  9. So this was the first kit I built as a kid, found another at a swap meet. I was nostalgic and was just gonna recreate my old build, but new skills and a couple members here got me thinking, do it better, and different. No clear on the body yet, createx pearl black. First time spraying their colors, I'm sold on it. Interior is folkart lipstick red, not sure if I want black or red for the carpet and console. What do you all think, let me know.
  10. My property is 11 acres, mostly wooded, about a half mile away from a preserve on one side and a farm down the road,so I get all manor of wilderness and creatures stopping by. I enjoy it.
  11. Yup,serious. I grew up working on a 68 roadrunner, it used to run in heavy eliminator, now it's a 9.50 index car,all motor. Fox bodies are an awesome platform, Swiss army knife for the strip. Awesome rideπŸ‘πŸ‘
  12. Beautiful work. I see the factory markings on the firewall, nice touch.
  13. Your builds are extremely clean, and very well done. Show them off, no need to apologize.
  14. Nice mustang, I spotted the nitrous immediately. Looks like a pretty serious car.
  15. Potato could be a difficult word to follow
  16. Very classy 300. Great work with the trim and I like that interior color choice.
  17. Great looking Torino, Michelle. The wheel choice is spot on, Awesome color as well. πŸ‘πŸ‘
  18. Very clean build. Great work
  19. Looking killer so far. πŸ‘πŸ‘
  20. Welcome to the forum
  21. I was just looking at interior pictures, the red caught my eye.
  22. My wife "borrowed" my debit card last night, and this morning guess who paid cash getting their morning coffee.
  23. I kinda broke my own rule and have 3 1/2 semi-stagnant builds now. My chevelle is the reset. Far too active of an imagination and far too little time.
