  1. I don't think pontiac has a factory anymore. But I agree it looks badass.
  2. Wow, that looks totally like how it would look if it was real. Wicked cool !

    1967 Chevelle

    First under glass. Perhaps will take daylights pictures if I get any.
  4. That color is badass, correct or not. Wicked just the way it is.
  5. Is there going to be rear sideglass? Theres no way a window of that shape would be able to roll in the door. But beside that this is badass !!! The thing I always did not like about those 70 camaros was the front end.

    Porsche 930 Turbo

    That thing looks serious. And that turbocharger must be bulletproof to server as a wheelie bar also ! nice work
  7. Amost finished. Just need to do some touchups. First time I used epoxy type glue and the stuff got everywhere even though I used gloves when I touched the tube or anything around it when I mixed it.Theres epoxy glue fingerprints everywhere that I had to polish down to become less noticeable. Also when the shell, interior and chassis were joined, the geometry of the front fenders changed and the front bumper then did not fit as it did before. I had to fight with it and rubbed some of the alclad off the edges. So I must touch that up too.The hood does not fit right anymore as well so I have to find a way to shave some off the sides without chipping pieces of paint off. I don't have anymore of that color so this scares me. I made one big mistake because the wheels are 1:24 scale and might look a little too big. Bah.
  8. Wonder what this thing will go for. http://www.barrett-jackson.com/application/onlinesubmission/lotdetails.aspx?ln=624&aid=403&pop=1
  9. That looks absolutely badass !!!
  10. thank you for your help. What is the best way? Freeway 51 or freeway 101 south to Tempe ?
  11. I am seeking information of any hobby shops in Scottsdale area. Last year I was at one on baseline road and went to another on southern but it was not there anymore. But hopefully there is something closer to north Scottsdale. Oops one more thing. What is Hobby lobby? I remeber seeing lots of those down there. Is that Arizona's version of michaels? Thanks Jeff
  12. And you guys are complaining about THIS ?!?!!?!?!?!? Dont alter it. I like it just the way it is.
  13. Saw this at a show this summer. First time I seen this trend. Would look cooler if the rears were widened some.
  14. I think you should put a satin clear coat on the chassis . Looks a little too shiny. The choice of interior color is very bizarre but looks good. And the wood wheel looks very good from what i can tell. But other than that its looking great. Very clean. You will wetsand the color coats? Jeff

    1966 Mustang

    Very cool. Looks great with that hoodscoop.
  16. Little update, finished foilin. Some imperfections in the paint but just want to get this finished. Almost done though. chow.
  17. thats looking badass for sure. You add a wash after primer to get that effect in the body panel dividing lines?
  18. Those wheels were included? They sure look alot like the recall wheels.
  19. Never seen the real car so I cannot appreciate the ability of others to see the imperfections but in my opnion, this kit will be badass !!! No matter how unaccurate it is. Its different and correct me if I am wrong but the only non-big three vintage american car that has been made into a model kit . It certianly looks like the best made anyway. Now if only somebody from Moebius is reading this. What about a muntz jet next. jeff
  20. Very bizzar ! But different and I like that about it, reminds me of a hotwheels car. Very cool !
  21. Mr cranky. Saw this in a video I whatched about building diaramas. The man used something called marmite in place of the hairspray. http://www.tabletop-terrain.com/archives/2008/02/19/852/
  22. My only gripe is the color keyed alternator, everthing else is spot on !
  23. What is the purpose of the hairspray? To prevent the top coat from adhering to the undercoat, making it easier to scrspe into ?
  24. I think bare metal foil is the best thing for small things like that. But if you use the alunimum, get some of this. Bottle says it can be watered down. Don't. Use dry brush or it will be too runny and pool up. I have used the spray adhesive before but I sprayed it into a bottle cap and brushed it on. Worked better for me.
