  1. Great trade with gseeds- he's the best and did a great build up of the T-bird!
  2. Classicgas and I completed a great trade with everyone happy. Trade again?- you bet!
  3. Fascinating build- never knew about 4wd Deuce- looking forward to more!
  4. Great detailing and color! Looking forward to more.
  5. Lee, did we create a mystery? One of the Italian body companies created a beautiful coupe or two. Maybe looking up when these were made would help.
  6. That Ford is nice! With those pipes, I bet that engine isn't stock! Love the chrome reverses and baby moons.
  7. Great build and super paint job- glad to see something I would never do anything with turned into a gorgeous model. The paint fog and fade really compliments the lines! Gary, in my experience Aurora car models seem to be a bit undersize for the scale. Compare the AMT and Aurora Avantis- very different!
  8. Your paint is beyond flawless- your workmanship and research to achieve your results are exemplary. Can I shrink myself and go cruizing?
  9. The roadster chassis speed equipment was one of the scarcest original issues of the Revell parts packs, had some great goodies including a fuel pressure hand pump. I too would also like to see all the Renwal revivals revived!
  10. Jose, thanks for the info.
  11. Any chance of more pix of the Hasbro toy? That looks interesting.............
  12. I find Testors rubber good for simulating old grease and oil leaks- also good for mixing with steel and other metallics to alter the tone. I agree with Rusty- go with your eyes, and don't be afraid to experiment. Thinned down, the rubber also makes a good wash, and can also look like old rust. Military colors can be useful in untypical applications.
  13. This is the AMT Chrysler which could be built as a roadster pickup with removable top. Gotta love some of the build options AMT thought of! I built this one about 30 years ago.

    pony up

    You certainly know how to translate an idea into reality! Keep them coming!
  15. Just got my end of a trade- AMT's 1949 Ford. I need another project like a hole in the head, but I was thinking of using it as a beginning for a Dodge Firearrow.
  16. Mike, how about dual 4 bbl carbs? Another idea- low profile modern supercharger with a rear intake set up.
  17. You don't see enough custom Willys- this one is as good as it gets- now- who's going to build it full size? I have always though the Willys coupes were like a 40 Ford with a 3 window coupe body.
  18. Luxury and speed- can't beat 'em!
  19. Never knew about the full size 4wd Deuce- this looks very interesting- I will follow! Any thoughts yet on performance mods to the engine?
  20. Hmmmmm-Apply large amounts of chocolate to a motorcycle, then try to escape from the irate owner?
  21. I have one question about the Supra-Charger- where does the suction hose plug in?
  22. I made a couple of successful trades today, with more pending. Good to find new homes for things you know you will never do anything with. Decluttering is a good way to refocus on the projects that really interest you.
  23. Interesting from a hobby history standpoint, but I wouldn't want to build it!
