  1. Far out! Building models is a form of free expression, and that one's pretty out there! I love "out there"!
  2. Man that's a cool build, 6 banger and all! Love all the mods and super details, excellent!
  3. One of the best builds I've seen of that one! Looks fabulous in black, nicely done!
  4. I love what you're doing with this gorgeous car! "putty, sand, prime, repeat" I've found that putty, sand, prime, clearcoat, putty, sand prime, clearcoat, works to prevent the primer from eating into the putty. Have you chosen a Ferrari colour for this beauty?
  5. I really enjoy trying to make the original pieces look better, like you're doing with that chassis.
  6. I need to do this, Greg do you have any pieces of that aluminum left? I never use the 45s either.

    Cherry bomb.

    I never thought that kit could look so good! Great build!
  8. Wow, that flattie looks fantastic! You kept the crab too, cool.
  9. That's some fantastic build man! How'd ya make that exhaust crossover? Mine's nowhere near as nice! (Original issue '60 that I did a lot of scratch building on years ago)
  10. WOW! That is so great looking, very impressive!
  11. Looks excellent! Gorgeous interior, but seat belt decals are a bit of a let down. Still a great looking hardtop!
  12. I'll sell that Merc if someone wants to build it? Probably best to contact me off the board though, I don't think selling is allowed.
  13. I built one, it's a nice kit!
  14. Thanks for the kind words Steve, I could never hope to be on your level! I don't mean that as a stupid saying, I have seen your work in Minneapolis for years, and it really is on another level!
  15. I totally agree on those slimline bumpers and making all the chrome the same! Nice work on a fantastic car! I had the pleasure of riding in one, such a sweet sound from that 250 V-12.
  16. I've never seen those but they sure are cool! 3D printers should offer them, although they'd also be easy to do in resin. I'd buy some for hot rods!
  17. I have one of his '56 Mercs, nice stuff he did! No chrome, but NOW we have Revell spray! I've always wanted to do a period custom, maybe now I should!
  18. Removing the floor of older shallow interior tub kits and using the chassis as the floor is greatly helpful. Here' the '63 Galaxie is sitting on the '60 Starliner floor.
  19. Welcome to the board!
  20. Welcome Dan, I'm in Winnipeg! This forum is great, WIP model cars, check it out!
  21. With that vintage in mind, I'd stick with 17s and rethink the exhaust. Should be fantastic!
  22. Man that will be a stunner after it's foiled! Stock wheels and tires?
  23. The 17s do look great, but the nice thing about your larger diameter ones is that the tires do have some nice sidewall, they're not the dreaded rubber bands, so for me, either works. It's a very large car so it can handle the look of 20s and 21s. I'd say it depends on how modern the other mods will be.
