This is turning out really nice i have a small piece of advice to add. Usually when you have a two door coupe or convertable the door is generally longer. I think you should rescribe the back of the door to make it a bit longer. you scrafice you door size when you have four doors, but the door should be longer when you turn a four door into a two door. just my opinion. keep up the good work!

I almost forgot what we were talking about here "virgins" and "booties" I started looking for the pics of the sexy mommas LOL! just kidding great job bro , but what do you mean when you say "Has to be a virgin to sacrifice the foam" ???

I found some replica Foose wheels (mine are Boyd Coddington"s) that are closer to my 1:1 Wheels i havent posted this yet Im just waitin on them to get here. With the new set i'll be able to make lugs and lugnuts. (i Know you think Im crazy) but they thought I was crazy when i discoved electricity too! LOL! Anyway these are my 1:1 rims 19X10's rears and 17X7's front this is what I got for the model

I worte this tutorial on correct door hinges that swing the door inside the front fender. Its simple and to the point also has pics feel free to use it if you like. tutorial link: http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=31793

I went and got under my bodymans skin and hes finally making some progress on my 1:1 thought I'd give ya peek at it. this one is of the motor with all the good stuff stripped off it

I like youre response, hope you dont mind if I barrow it

You're kidding us right? Modellers have to be the most patient people on the planet!

First off this is a gonna be a nice project, but if you put anything in the engine compartment besides a ferrari motor you will be doing this great supercar a huge injustice. wheel changes and differant paint jobs are one thing but you dont change the powerplant in a supercar. Anyway those are my thoughts its truely your project have fun and do a good job. Romell

Hey heres a small update for ya I made a tach and steering coloum from aluminum tubbing and was able to get my trunk lid and interior pan sprayed.....Enjoy!

No sweat Mopar I understand totally, and you are free to give your opinion anytime on any of my builds. im just glad you like it enough to want to help out if you see something wrong. Good lookin out hommie! LOL! by the way what you working on?

you and me both!!! LOL thanks for the compliment

I think your wife must really love you,..... If I tried to give my wife a model for any occassion I'd be sleeping on the couch for a month. On the other hand very nice build though.

shucky Please send me a Pm with your prices for your turbo and ordering info. I'd like to get a few set from ya. thx in advance Romell

I dont get it! Why would you post a thread thats supposed to be about building a certain model and you dont have pics anywhere in the thread, Maybe that was idiotcy on my part because I was 3 pages into the thread before I realized there were no pictures of the said build. Or heres a good one you post a review on a model that you dont have yet asking people for there opinion on how you should build it. Umm Ok people I know we all have something we want to share and great ideas but lets not waste anyones time with fantasy builds that probably wont happen. ok maybe im being a lil stearn. Thers nothing wrong with posting and asking for help with a project, certain post dont need pictures, but on the other hand DONT put up a new thread and have me fooled into clicking on it by titling it " Custom Built Chevy DOODOO" and then theres no photos to back it up. Wait untill you get your model or atleast untill you have pics of said model. Ok ive said enough what do you think?

Commin along sweet my friend keep up the good work , And thats some excellent scratch building there!

Words like Superb,Excellent,and great all fall inline with your building skills I cant say anything that you havent already heard. but I do know a pro builder when i see one and you fit that catagory. Romell

This is an awesome build , great job with re-working that AMT body, I believe scratch building is the ultimate form of modelling and you work it well. Keep up the good work, and i'll be following. Romell

very nice cant wait for you next installment. Romell

Gonna be fun to watch one of your build John this so far is beautiful keep up the good work.
