  1. The AMT '55 Chevy Stepside is one nice kit, and I've build a few so far . . . but I'm really excited about this one . . . Using the pictures for reference I added all the rust-throughs and modifications . . . Luckily, it's not too much . . .
  2. So what else is Cranky to do? Get inspired, of course!!! Got the frame squared away first before the fun started . . . just to make sure this one's gonna sit pretty and right.
  3. So I'm driving around town and suddenly I spot this vehicle sitting pretty in a shop . . . luckily I had my digital with me . . .
  4. That thing is full of weapons, plenty for everyone. I love it!
  5. Love gunk, buddy. Great job!!!
  6. Thank you. I really appreciate the input.
  7. Lots of firepower, that's how we likes them!!! Great job. More, folks, more . . . the caravan is filling up the ranks nicely. You gotta add your own to it!!!
  8. Thanks, Janne. Yeah, goggles would fix the problem.
  9. That looks great, Chuck. But now you have to do the GUNKED version!
  10. Beautiful!!! Can't wait to see it finished.
  11. That's it, Harry, it's time to move in with Gregg in Hawaii. Heck, I think we should all move to Hawaii!
  12. Again, thanks for the kind comments, folks. I really appreciate them.
  13. Love the look and you can't go wrong with red and black. I've always loved that kit. Great job!
  14. You can't go wrong with IWATA ECLIPSE HP-C. It's the best airbrush and fairly economical. Later as you get used to it, you'll end up with the best airbrush in the world, the Iwata Micron.
  15. Thanks, Harry. We're building models to stave off the aging process. I think it might be working.
  16. Man, these builds just keep getting better and better! Way to go! The details and the colors are out of sight!!!
  17. Oh, I forgot to take a picture of the engine . . .I will tomorrow. Thanks for all the kind words, folks. Cheers.
  18. Thanks, everybody. Yeah, it was fun working on this one. John, no, I don't sell my work. Most of it ends up in my collection cabinet. Thanks for asking though.
  19. I still don't know what I am going to do with that glassless windshield. I think I am going to tape a tattered and torn piece of clear plastic of some sort . . . but this one is done . . . and on the shelf to collect more natural weathering!
  20. Because the editor felt the material was way too much for all the children who participated on the forum! Ah, I don't want to think about it again.
  21. The dreaming is part of the fun, buddy! Go, go, go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  22. Yeah, buddy, it was fun! And the best part was also this amazing thread where all the builders posted their progress, but unfortunately the Monday after the show the editor of the magazine and forum pulled the plug on it and erased everything!
  23. Here are a couple of pictures from that infamous show a few years back: You can check them all out here: http://public.fotki.com/vsuarez666/voodoo-customs-chop-shop/road_trip_archives/birmingham-classic-2007/
  24. We did that at the Birmingham show the year we all built our vehicles. Let me see if I can dig up the pictures . . . stay tuned in . . .
