This is looking gorgeous. I am excited to see it completed, yet sad to see it go at the same time. Phenomenal build, good sir.

I really like where this build is going.

I am right there with you, man. It's sad to see the kulture and all of the involved skills slowly fade away. There's not enough young guys like me trying to bring it all back, and preserve that amazing piece of American history.

Well, good thing I have a ton of patience. I most definitely will be doing lots of practice before commiting. I have a Watson style panel paint job to finish before doing a fade. I think my 51 Belair will be the perfect candidate for the fade. I might do something similar to what they did on Jesse James' 54 Belair the legends built on Monster Garage. I absolutely love the reverse fade.

Now that looks absolutely killer. That fade is absolutely amazing. I think you have inspired me again to try something new.

Excellent work. I can't wait to see it in the sunlight to really let those colors show.

I found a 61 galaxie salt flat car I want to replicate, so I may continue on that path anyway and just put the custom roof on the 60 starliner since it's getting removed.

Happy to see you back and working hard. I may have to attempt a similar roof swap on my 61 Galaxie If I decide not to chop in a starliner roof.

It's really too bad these roofs don't fit without a ton of work. If it wasn't such a bear to finish, I'd have a lot more of these.

This is easily my favorite generation and styling of the F100. Excellent work, Tim. You did this subject some justice. I have three of the AMT repop, puchased a resin short box. I was on a mission to buy the earlier model promo grilles and resin cast them for the community, but they are pretty outrageous in price for single parts.

Beautiful execution. Everyone needs a 3 cyl turbo in their life.

She's a beautiful machine. Chevy II are my favorite and I have the Moebius kit being set up as a pro mod. I'll post updates after I have photos taken.

My biggest project on the table. Ford F250 Ranger Super Modified 4x4 puller. These are set up just like promod drag cars. Blown and methanol injected. No detail will be missed. She is now torn down and being prepped for a wild paint job. Yes, five pedals to control the monster. From left to right, clutch, reverser, LF brake, RF brake, and throttle. I scratch built the rear lift system and hydraulic ram.

My 32 tudor chop in the works. I use stretched sprue to fill and then use a homemade tool to make weld beads.

Getting a good look at my 60's Bronco before i rip the windshield off and instal the 3d printed frame with wiper motors. I am happy I went with the hot rod inspired interior.

This is pretty bad machine. I moved deep into Fords over the years,but this is a Chevy I'd definitely put in my collection.

I certainly appreciate the kind words. I'll definitely get digging into it after I get moved. I'll definitely be making a build post.

I love everything about this build. Did you ever complete it?

I guess I didn't even realize. I have two of the lowrider kits, one that I built probably fifteen years ago as a teenager. I'll have to pop open the box and take a look. So maybe I will just end up getting the Caprice cop car snap kit anyway.

I have this exact image in my mind inspired by Steve Morris's Buick wagon, but I wanted to do a Caprice cop car. The only available option is the snap kit. Maybe I should just go with the Impala instead.

This is a pretty exciting build to watch. I have recently got pretty darn good at scratch building and I am really wanting to get into making the 60's Kustoms. I really have no idea where to start...even though I picked up the AMT 61 Galaxie that came with all the customizing parts.

I keep eyeing this kit at my LHS and seeing all that failures this kit has brought over the years... all I can think about is another great abandoned vehicle project. I think I might just pull the trigger and continue on with it.

I may have to grab one of the Elco kits... but another 53 pickup? That makes Four reissues in five years. I bet we could name 50 kits that are in dire need of a reprint. I personally would love to see some more vintage promo cars get the curbside kit treatment so I can finish more cars in-between my normal high detailed builds.

I guess I really don't know. I am not doing anything super specific. He gave me a kit, aftermarket decals, and a bunch of resin parts. I wasn't tasked with finding a specific reference to replicate. I am just going to work with whatever I was given. If it were my personal project, that would be a different story entirely.

My ex business partner got us sponsored by them at the beginning and while everything was kosher over the first couple years, things went sideways with the owner and a weird falling out happened. He used a bunch of our builds for promos and lots of people got to see them... so at least that was pretty cool.
