58 Impala

That would definitely turn some heads running to the store for some bread or milk. Thats about all you could carry in there.

Moon wheels and V8 definitely. I think Plymouth should have found a way to stuff a V8 in the Prowler in the first place.

I'm waiting for the 62 Vette and the Stacey Roadster.

The oldest build I have is a model of the Uncertain T that I built with my dad back in the mid 60's.

Wow, nice build and color combo. You took an otherwise mundane kit and made it look good.

Great. I'll have to check them out Monday.

Very cool. My dad started me building models at 7, and 48 yrs later I'm still at it. It's up to all of us to encourage the young ones to get into in our wonderful hobby. No matter wether it's trains,planes,military, or cars. I enjoyed teaching my son when he was young, now that he's married I'm looking forward to hopefully teaching future grandchildren.

Nice booth Big Daddy, looks like it will work very well. I have one suggestion, if you use a smooth exhaust tube instead of a corrugated dryer duct you would get better exhaust flow. I'm currently working on getting everything together for my booth. I have acquired a dual squirrel cage blower, the motor is a shade pole motor. The motor doesn't have any brushes to create a spark, it runs on magnetic polarity. I also have it connected to speed control switch. I'm building mine out of a good quality 3/4" plywood. I went to my local building supply store and got a 4'x8' sheet of white cabinet liner, which is a thinner sheet of Formica than is used for counter tops. I'm going to use it to line the whole inside of the booth. The sheet only cost $13. I plan on my making mine a cross draft booth. I was thinking of using either low voltage LED puck lights (no heat) or a small fluorescent fixture for lighting. I also plan on putting a folding lexan door on the front so when I'm done spraying I can turn off the fan and close the booth to minimize dust.

When is this sale supposed to start? I'll keep an eye out at my local store.

Nice build. I like that kit, just wish it wasn't a curbside.

I picked the 3 window as my favorite, I think it represents the iconic image of a street rod. I like all the others also as I have multiples of each.

The Revell kit is a little easier to BMF. The AMT kit is a lot of work to BMF, I know it took me 2 or 3 nights to do one.

Still a nice build even without a lot of engine detail. The 58 is a great looking car.

I've loved 58's since my dad had one when I was a little kid. Never had one myself. Good luck with your plans to to fix her up. Show us some pictures of your progress.

Art, how much do those masks cost in US dollars? I couldn't find the price conversion on the EBay site, also what was the shipping?

Like several of you, I did an inventory a few years ago on paper and transferred it to an Excel spreadsheet. I came up with my own way of categorizing everything. Once you get one set up it's easy to keep it updated.

Thanks Gerry, one more question. Does the PE set come with model?

John, where did you get/ what did use for the blower belt? Looks very realistic.

Exotics-Builder, where did you order the the kit and detail set from?

Since Revell has kitted some beautiful mid 60's Corvettes, I would love to see a new tooling of a 63 SplitWindow Corvette. All we have is a 40+ yr old AMT tooling which is not very accurate and a little simplified.

Bought the AMT 62 Thunderbird from Hobby Lobby, 40% off - $13.99. Nice kit, neat custom parts.

Far out man! @_@

Went to Hobby Lobby and bought a second Paasche H airbrush for shooting clear coat. It cost $100 minus 40% coupon minus a $25 gift from my son and daughter-in-law....total cost $35

If you can find a model 737 it has even more room than the one niteowl is showing. The Plano tackle boxes are real durable, I've been using mine for three years.

Nice work so far, looking forward to seeing more. You're good at rescribing lines, I tend to jump out of the groove at the worst times. I like the flame job you're plotting out. What colors were you thinking of using?
