very nice it looks good in that colour

what if we just put everyone back in the old ford pintos? then, if they are stupid enough to be going slow in the fast lane we can just give them a little love tap on the rear bumper and watch the problem solve itself

i would salute it if i didnt think it'd be off for a civilian to do so bravo

i remember driving a beaten down 1.4 16 valve opel E kadett (same as the 1990s pontiac lemans) down the german autobahn i had then engine pinned and was going flat out as fast as that car would roll i was in the right hand lane passing by cars that were doing 80, 90 or so keeping an eye on my mirrors i noticed a teeny tiny speck in my rear view mirror i glanced at my speedo to see the needle pegged at 120 MPH i looked back at my rear view mirror and there is a mercedes about 3 inches from my rear bumper i slid over into the slow lane (where i belonged) still doing 120 MPH and the mercedes blew past me like i was standing stilll i think i walked away with a new respect for the fast lane

i really like the "sideswiped" damage, you dont see that too often my only advise would be to tone down those rims a bit with a black wash, they look like they belong in a hiphop video rather then the shed oh, and put a belt in the front seat, because you know if my kid did that to one of the cars there would be a belt involved

i think i like the cuda best, that aircleaner looks great (dont think ive ever seen it on a model before but ive seen it on every other 1:1 mopar) and those slapper bars make it look mean

looking good buddy but....you are in need of some serious mopar power...where are the 'cudas, the chargers, the dusters and road runners? come on kiddo, we believe in you, toss a hemi up there

i wanna say the first time my dad let me drive the family car it was his landrover discovery...i felt like i was driving a semi it was really cool of course, thats nothing compared to a stude' so are you the oldest of the (brady)bunch ?

on a related note, i just had the TV on in the background and i head a very interesting story a local man (now a reverend but not sure how long he has been a man of the cloth) who served in vietnam as a medic has just been awarded the purple heart for injuries sustained during the vietnam war it sure is great too see this man getting the recognition he deserves (ill try to find a little local news link to add here)

looks like your off to a good start there Andy just wondering how well those intake runners are attached because they are on there backwards, they should be mounted facing the sides if you get what i mean (edit) found a picture that explains it, just click on the link and see http://www.flickr.com/photos/jvbates/4765183548/sizes/l/in/photostream/

looking real good i read earlier you use a android to take the WIP shots on my wifeys android there is a setting called "scenes" on the camera by switching that one around you can find a macro setting i took a quick shot of a 1/25 engine bay, as soon as it uploads ill post it here for comparission (assuming your phone is similair to hers)

not a big camaro fan but this thing is a beast any under carriage shots ? i'd like to see what rolling stock goes with that blower

im not sure if it is a "personal appology" if you are not appologizing for something you personally did ?

looking good i just want to clarify that none of the decals seen on this build so far have been mine and on top of that, i didnt do any of the design, i just provided the printing service having said that, i am glad to be a part of this build there is no way to properly express the gratitude we owe our fighting men and women but i sure think this is a good start

i have a model of a 1990 pontiac lemans i will one day turn into the second car i ever owned, a heavily modifed 1990 opel E kadett

nice im a sucker for panther pink muscle cars the wiring on that baby shouldn't be too bad, just take your time, look up some 440s on the web to see where the wires go and make sure you drape the wires in a realistic way you'll get it

cant go wrong with a duster i have one that is waiting on parts and one that is waiting to get started looking forward to see this one come together

if you're really looking for issues talk to my ex girlfriend thank you, thank, you...i'll be in town all week

sorry to stir up such a bee's nest Joe so to move away from the sponsorship decals, how about we add a tune to this build, kinda like its own thememusic...i suggest CDBs still in saigon

speaking off logic, why does he wear a face mask with a respirator if he doesnt have any lungs? great model love the idea of it i just might steal the idea and redo it in red...call it "the barons revenge"

the figure in the second picture almost looks real

looks great so far, especially the roof between you and me, i dont think there is a place on a tribute car like this for sponsorship decals this is about the men and women who made the sacrifices that gave us the freedom to race, not the companies that made the parts just my 2 cents...and if thats all i can complain about you done good

but there is nothing between the headlights and it just looks like its missing something (to me)

i like the model, it looks great but im not sure about the paintscheme i'd like to believe that mercedes drivers have a little more class then that...it looks more like a paintjob you would see on a lexus
