  1. Thx Larman for your cincere comment
  2. This is a great Idea except PSF doesnt sell it anymore because the company went out of business. I know cause i was just trying to buy it and the ford 4 link
  3. This looks like its gonna be fun!
  4. WOW Got another update two in one day whats goin on LOL! I had a chance to get the base coat laid down and I also worked on the dash got pics of both for ya.......enjoy! the front fenders have been painted also im just waiting on some materials to come so I can mask off some flames. heres the dash with the gauges attached I also have a set of keys in the ignition and a chevelle badge on the right side. I'll be adding a stero later.....
  5. Actually i wont use the clear to attach to the dash I'll use a small spot of CA. But I will use HOK clear when I attach the chevelle badges to the body after its painted. You use clear on body parts and on parts that glue may compromise. thx for your question Highway
  6. Well I dont want to say anything thats not true, so i'll just say this build is excellent! keep up the good work
  7. Ha Ha I slipped that one in on ya LOL! talk to ya soon Dave
  8. Todays Update is the dash gauges . I started by polishing up two different size bezels. then I carefully cut out my gauge imprints from this photo card.(going with the white faced gauges) Then i used Tamiya clear to hold the two together and make the lenses at the same time. all I have to do now is trim and apply to the dash.
  9. I decided to go ahead finish up the grill while I was at it.....enjoy! here the grill with insert and SS badge
  10. First let me thank David G and JamesDE for there comments..... Now I have some new post for ya. I was gonna paint today but I changed my mind about the type of paint I want to use for this build. I was going to use those new testers custom paints but to tell you truthfully I dont like using spray can paints. Im more comfortable with HOK and laying down a 3 part paint job. so I called my buddys at pegasis hobbys and had them send me some Sunset Gold, clear, a platinum silver base, and the blackest black that HOK makes LOL! so in the mean time I stripped the chrome off some parts and re-chromed them with Alclad. I feel like Alclad is closer to scale chrome than the chrome plate put on parts by the company (revell) so with all that said heres the pics. whew! The stripped bumpers and grill rechromed parts, I may hit em one more time...
  11. Hey Dave I wanted to stop and take the time to express my admiration of your building skills. And I was wondering If I could see the car you have as your avatar I have seen pics of it brifely somewhere eles (cant remember where) but I do remember it was something I wanted to see more of. Anyway keep up the good work and I look forward to more of your work.
