I hear that. The heat I handle, that thick heavy air is just no good.those days when you've flushed all the minerals out of your system with too much water are the worst. 86% humidity,no thanks.

Looks awesome, and good luck with the move.👍👍

Interested to see where this one goes,I picked up the same kit a few years ago. I like 55-6's a bit more,lower trim the better. Less common.The pillars are repairable, there's more than a few tutorials on here.

Got a little more done tonight. painted the chassis, I wanted this to look like a fairly correct restoration. There's primer overspray, varied coverage of paint,and I tried to include the factory undercoat on the rear wheel wells. There's a couple different blacks, and different sheens,I'm horrible with photography so I'm not sure it shows up well. I still have to do the tank,straps and some subtle weathering.

It's sitting right. 👍👍. I haven't been to a Goodguy's show in years, they stopped the Rhinebeck NY show a while ago.

I've noticed that as well with some of the paint i have. I've got a translucent white pearl from golden I want to play around with. Might be a good "mixer" to mess with.

That looks awesome. I really like that color.

Looking great. You certainly build them well, and quickly might I add.

Making a Return to the Hobby From Upstate New York

Welcome to the forum Stephen. Fellow upstate New Yorker. Down by Albany. -
Yup, every time I wash my truck it rains the next day, regardless of the weather report.

That probably came from one of the stamping presses. Or a die. We've got a 10ft, 60 ton brake at work that will pop heads off bolts if you push it to bend something it doesn't want to. My boss found that out hard way. Impressive if that let go all at one time, with the size of those machines I'm not surprised.

How's it look mocked up?

Very sharp looking gto. The red stripe is a nice touch. I really like the vinyl top as well.👍👍

Got my truck's inspection done today, now the sticker is halfway where it should have been with all the old adhesive still smeared on the windshield. Minor irk, but seriously, not hard to do a good job with this. Happy they didn't cut my dash. I believe I've found the training grounds for future "chimpcanics"

This thing is cool, man 👍👍. It looks like you had serious fun building it,most importantly. Big hemi, little car, odd proportions, it's an Ed Roth cartoon come to life. Nice work.

I would have sourced another vendor with that wait, even at 12 dollars. I scrounged all mine from old headphones and cell chargers.

Nice work, I like the torn up seats especially.
-
Looking good, nice job on the hemi and the chassis.
-
I caught mine after I stripped and re-chromed it. Rookie mistake. Your gto is looking killer, I figured I had better pass that along. That kit can be made a coupe as well.

The Chrysler Norseman emerges from the depths...of my resin vat.
johnyrotten replied to Pico's topic in WIP: Model Cars
One of the coolest features of this car. Too bad the fate history had for it. -
Looking good, it's not a bad kit at all. I built one last year. Check the rear bumper, driver's side under the tailights. Mine had a dip in it, and I've seen others with the same.

What did you see on the road today?

My dog Harper (110 pounds) brought out one of her stuffed animals into the yard. My wife tried to take it from her, yeah,not happening. I haven't laughed like that in a while. Good dog.
