  2. its my daily driver so mods are almost non existent. it sits a little low. lol i have about 4" under the front lip for clearance,just enough for speedbumps and curbs. jeff
  3. i love 88'-98' chevy trucks, i have a 3500 dually thats been slammed, i still gotta drop the rear down another 2" to get it to sit level though. i can post a picture if ya want, these body style trucks do look good bagged. Jeff
  4. I think you may have jsut became the most popular person on this board
  5. heres a few of my past builds http://s453.photobucket.com/albums/qq254/The_Emo_Gearhead/past%20builds/
  6. Got it nick, no problem. sign me up for a 1960 ford starligner, its the amt kit. colors will be flat black bottom, and a purple metal flake roof panel. Jeff
  7. I to like the mexican blanket. wait.....I have one on the backseat of my 1:1, does that make it a ratrod? Im really likin the look so far.
  8. would bikes be allowed, thats the only kit i have that i havent started, i can get another kit no problem though. if they are id like to start with a tamiya yamaha yzr-m1, in race trim. Jeff
  9. hey nick,do we list the kit we will be using for the build or? jeff
  10. if nobody here can tell you i found this site on google http://indyroadsters.webs.com/forums if the link doesnt work(posting from my iphone) google search indycarbuilders and it should come up. jeff cool whatever it is though!!
  11. i wont buy a stock car, my mottos always ben "stock is boring" my last daily was a 84' vette with a soubd system that would shake filings loose an bust ear drums,i traded a guy that for a 1990 chevy 3500 extended cab dually 1ton,its been lowered about 2" up front and about 3" out back, i plan on putting in a changable system and slamming it as far as i can go.
  12. i did get a kit today thats gonna be built straight out of the box today,im going to give it a shot, its a tamiya yamaha bike(motogp) hopefully i can do it,seeing as ive never built a bike and have no detailing parts for it! jeff
  13. the closest ive ever been to building box stock was a c6 corvette from revell, i just had to do a little custom work,i cut the targa free and made it functional(read removeable) and flat black wheels on a burnt orange body. i even blacked out all the lights
  14. i hate to be the bearer of bad news ryan,but i dont think your gonna go anywhere without a transmision!!! all kidding aside,this is a great build,i need to pik up one of those merc kits, they look like a fun build!
  15. to answer your question i entered a calendar contest and got my girlfriend to take the pics with her camera, its about 14. thats what most use for that kind of stuff i believe.
  16. outside of models i like to fix up old bicycles,just finished doing a fast restoration on a 1950's westernflyer. and i have about 7 other bikes waitin on restorations. i also play guitar(acoustic and electric) bass and drums. i play around fixing 1:1 cars as well. pretty much anything that entails fixing something,lol
  17. Rommel, ive been around semi trucks ever since i can remember, seen just about every engine configuration available here in the u.s.a. and seen them from factory fresh to over a millino miles, you did a good job weathering that engine! i can practically smell the fumes from here!
  18. I know i cant be the only one. I dont know how many times ive tried to build a model straight out of the box without modifying/altering any parts. I just cant do it. Anybody else have this problem? or am i just going insane??? The closest ive ever been to building straight out of the box was with amt current reisue of the ford starliner, beautifull kit, just fell together i got it painted flat black all shined up and a purple metalflake roof then it got smushed, i had everything built and ready for final assembley to the only thing i modifyed was the suspension, i dropped it till it just wouldnt go any lower and parts box wheels. Ill definatley have to get another! Jeff
  19. Translation- hey nick at least he doesnt type like this!

  22. Are you eventually going to do a how-to on how to hook up the lights rommel?
  23. looking good looking good!!! Now, can i have it?? just kiddin nick! good to see ya' back
  24. I wish, that wouldve been sweet! but the 'vette wasnt all it was cracked up to be, it needed alot of work! The truck needs some, but its better for my current situation.
