looks good I like the wheels you used.I'm glad you had fun and enjoyed the bonding.So what's next?

I don't think either of us will win as it doesn't appear that our modified cars will turn very well

If you are just going for smoothing out paint the pads are fine. If you are working out some heavy duty custom putty work you do want to have something a little stiffer or you run the risk of a hump just like jbwelda said.I also use those "tadpoles" and I would even recommend trimming them for those hard to reach places.Hope this helps!

I'll race ya .

Makes it really easy to do burnouts doesn't it?

I think you did a great job on this one!It is nice to see rare kits built,I wish more people would do it.

1977 cadillac seville never got stuck even in the great october blizzard and boy was it fun to drive on ice especially when I lost the rear brakes the front would stop but the rear wheels would still be spinning.good times .

for very small imperfections you can use glazing putty for more aggressive filling you should use a two part body filler like evercote or dynatron .bondo brand two parts do not sand as well . you can find these at your local auto parts store near the paint .hopre this helps .if you want more information on these check out some of the other threads there are tons of them on this subject!

Another great model,I also would like to thank you for showing us how you do those wonderful paint jobs!

I vote for a red interior!also I think the scoop is to big to be painted black maybe some sort stripe combo or a large stripe that goes a couple of scale inches onto the hood .looks good so far !

Oh I forgot nice build! What did you use for the chrome trim?the paint turned out awesome ! Do you have any in progress photos?you should buy some aftermarket rims for that baby !

it seems as if some people are throwing out a challenge to build a fifty -seven chevy ,a build off ,a community build ,an online contest,wait maybe I just don't get it .wait maybe it has something to do with the name Bob .wait maybe the message is have fun.wait don't wait build something .maybe it's an inside joke.

I think what george is trying to say is "hey, watever turns you on."

Yep,I agree with everyone else.It is fun to look at thank you for sharing it .I think it would have been a shame had this gone unseen by the car model guys.

made a new roof out of sheet plastic Added windows clear up front stained glass in the middle and red for the opera windows I can't make up mind about the wheels chrome or black

when your working on an old metal axle kit just when you think almost there the axle is almost through your thumb .

what is there to get?you had fun building a model.

It's a jeep thing

I wonder............................................

Well done . I commend you for trying a new technique and pulling it off .first one is the hard one I look forward to seeing the next one!

Nice models I particularly like the two piece tailgate .Look forward to seeing your future projects!

Well can you add more pictures I can't quite see all the fun you had especially on the chassis.also could you do a tutorial on the use of hot glue it hadn't occured to me to use it as an adhesive for the chrome and I also like the out of the box thinking you utilized by mounting the grille upside down.you should write a book.

My immediate memory is the peterbuilt tow truck and on a seperate occasion the tennesee thunder hauler I think that is probably how i got most of my truck kits because I was often too impatient to save money to buy the more expensive truck kits . and that just reminded me johan kits were a couple of bucks cheaper than amt ,monogram,mpc and revell.at the time they were 5.00 .
