  1. Thanks, my Fancy Aluminum trailing arms are part of a Large Paperclip cut to size Shhhhhhhhhhh..
  2. Thanks. Can't protect the cab if the roll bar is smaller, can ya?
  3. My PC up and running and some DIg cam pics. Some more rework to the front suspension. Had to lengthen the trialing arms and fab up new mount. The Coilovers are actually Losi Micro T Shocks (Part# LOSB1522) modified with the ends modified to fit where I want them to go Camber with stock body:D I doubt I'd do poseable steering since I would have to totally rework the tierods to move with the suspension. But Ya Never know
  4. Ditto. The motor can always be swapped Hubcaps Or wheels they call them can be swapped out. Body is Close enough for me. If I see it on Clearance, I'll be sure to get one or two.
  5. Lindberg Well, Testors did the Originals and Lindberg modified them into Police cars. BTW: I have only opened 2 out of my 8 and they look perty clean. Found a LHS that sells them at $20 An On-line Vendor (policecarmodels.com)that also sells them for $20+shipping (cheaper in bulk ) So for all those LHS selling for $30, Shame, Shame, Shame, Shame on you...
  6. I'm glad I thought of it then I keep looking at your Ranger and mine just didn't look right. Soo I fixed it. highway Camber issue is just fine. I may fix it just a little bit once the motor goes in. Or carve a Block out of lead stewart Those are the same Coil Overs I showed you but modified a lot to fit and look better. I'll have my PC up and running by the weekend.
  7. I couldn't tell ya where the ladderbars came from either. Bit of work and Cam down so I used my cell. Gonna get a better cell too Decided the front suspension didn't look all that well so I revamped it by adding working Coilovers to it. Cut off molded in springs and fabbed up a bottom mount. Now I got some serious Camber And the colors
  8. Great looking Pair. The Paint on the Charger looks Great.
  9. Simple kit but I like'em. Have pics of your 1:1 Rims? With 7,500 members, I'm sure somebody might know where to find them or to make them.
  10. So what is the Good price we should be looking out for? I'm sure ya got a Great deal on it. Can't wait to see pics of the Actual Kit and parts.
  11. Same as the Snap kit and molded in color with some tampo printed details.
  12. I've got sunshine on a cloudy day When it's cold outside I've got the month of May I guess you'd say What can make me feel this way? Models Talkin' 'bout my models
  13. Chuck Most is that where they came from? I've had them for Many yrs floating around and no place to go I'd never Knowingly take credit for somebody elsies idea.
  14. increase the output to 5 or 6 models a month What are you, Crazy?? Ease up there Cowboy, 5-6 a yr is Great!!! I thought it was how may kits you start not how many kits you Finish I like the Vacuum pot for resin casting.. BTW: Nice Production set up
  15. Very Interesting. It does look like a Defender 90 tho. got any front pics?
  16. Awesome looking Lil GoKart. Engine looks GREAT!! Looks like One Fun RIde.. Very Cool work..
  17. Thanks MrZinn. Surprisingly, I found a pair Those will help in protecting the driveline/fueltanks and keep the axle in place Good Idea you had ..
  18. I'd think Ladder bars or Anti Wrap bars would be feasible for the Faux Runner but I put the cheapest lift kit available on it Next one will be better and 4wd
  19. I did get this today and I thought being a 1/20 Chrysler Laser Promo was a Type O. Nope, It is 1/20 Now what?
  20. Just to show I'm not slackin on it. Did some skidplates on the fuel tanks and painted the chassis a bit. Still needs some more paint and what nots but it is progress
  21. I don't have it quit yet but I ordered it today. the biggest hold up I've had for painting models is I haven't airbrushed in a long time. Some reason the G/F doesn't like the smell of paint. Crazy, Eh? So I ordered the Pace 24" Mini Plus paint booth. Free shipping too Can't wait.... Can ya tell?
  22. WOW!! That looks Really Good. Excellent work and Details..
  23. Sweet looking Truck. Conversion is really nice. Paint looks Great too.
