  1. its cool, we all gotta start some where you should post some shots of the lowrider silerado, that ought to e interesting here is a nascar poncho i converted into a lowrider some of the mod: custom headlights kitbashed taillights 302 cross ram engine from a camaro custom sidepipes custom rear axle kitbashed suspension kitbashed interior custom flipflop hood custom decals
  2. just go ahead and mail the 20 inch mags to me and ill find a set of suitable tires for them aswell as a chassis they can call "home"
  3. it woud also make a great mohawk for mister T there
  4. it is a great kit, i have two of them on display in my guestroom and im sure to be adding a green one after seeing this build
  5. this really is a car you cant go wrong with and the paint looks great on it somehow mopar muscle is the only type of car you can paint in pink and still look mean (i once saw a 360 duster in PP and it just looked menacing) the closest you can get is called "furious fuchsia" pink

    69 Nova

    looks great i love the way the engine bay looks and its a joy to see so some nice rims on a nova
  7. normally i would not like the idea of putting a chevy engine in anything other then a boat (and only then to serve as the anchor) but the opel is a GM product after all so why not doesnt revell also kit this car ? does that one have an engine ?
  8. i always enjoy seeing a big honking V8 shoehorned into a tiny little car so you mainly build imports or is there some american muscle hiding in your stash aswell ?
  9. would you believe it came with a ford focus ? i didnt think that car needed with the extra weight of the bolwn 572 bigblock and all
  10. yeah but dont you know those vinyl graphix ad 12 horsepower ? EACH ! lol, i see your point though but this particular acura was build for a CBP with the subject of drift cars so it was allowed now, if i wanted a real sleeper youd be looking at a 68 roadrunner with a hemi and steelies on it
  11. it does have the trade mark chip foose fugly wheels on it sorry but on a classic car like thay those are a big no no (get it..big) other then that i really dig the car but i think it would look so much better with a set of cragars or keystones or even spyders yeah, i love spyder rims, nothing screams 70s muscle car like spyder rims (well just say it ran on stock rollers the first 3 years)
  12. sounds like a fun little project tell you what, when its done ill let you race my acura twin.....twin engine that is
  13. wow, that turned out great get it get it ? turned
  14. ive always had a great respect for those men and women who are willing to do what i am not and thereby give me the freedom not to have to do it. as a christian i am deeply ashamed of those who would dishonor the home coming of these young men and women the descriptions of those present to pay thier respects to this soldier are heartwarming but pale im comparision to the words found in luke 16:22 And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom.
  15. lol, shows how much attention i pay
  16. that looks so much better then the stock rollers are they "stackable" ? i mean, the stock rear rollers on the dodge dually are one peice units, yours seem like you would need 2 in order to run the dually rears do they lock in or how does that work ?
  17. i think its one of the best looking camaros out there if you ask me, the kit is dead on, but chevy missed the mark
  18. thanks darren, i never thought of doing ot that way ill give it a try
  19. looks good , i likes it but i have a question, whats the story with the number ? the reference pic is #5 but the model is #10
  20. my inlaws are from chile, the wife and her siblings are from santiago and her mom was from valpariso (no, not the one in indiana) needless to say we had to follow the entire thing i know i shouldnt say this but it was pretty funny when the government asked the miners to let them know who to give thier checks too it seems a woman who was there to support her husband got into a fight with a woman who was there to see her boyfriend when it turned out they were there to see the guy i bet you he was safer in that mine then he would have been above ground
  21. i build the revell release of this kit, same exact plastic, different box
  22. looks great my only qeustion is...how do you keep the endresult from feeling hi/lo ? everytime i do a to-tone i can feel the lines between the two paint since one lays on top of the other one
  23. looks good...or bad..depending on how you look at it anyway, you want to get yourself some nice goodyear blue streak tires, they were in a ton of the MPC musclecar kits and probably my favorite scale model tires
  24. i have a little peice of wood with two nails sicking out of it whenever i want to bent the styrene i place it in between the nails and one nails acts to hold the styrene in place while the other acts as a point to bend around this way my radius is the same every time
  25. cool, a 350 it is i think thats my first 350 then (more a mopar man here)
