  1. Wow I think those might do the trick. I forgot to search for AC grills. Thanks so much.
  2. I need some round defroster vents for a dash on a special project. I could use wizard-o's but I would like them to have some lines in them to represent vent vanes. Thanks in adance for your help.

    I plan to be there.
  6. I am sure it will Ismael.
  7. Thanks Ismael. It was your inspiration that got me to build it.
  8. This inspired my build of the C6 Grand Sport. I did it in Atomic Orange using 3 part Urethane Clear.
  9. I am getting some god Vacuum Formed Pieces now. Since I am heating the plastic a lttle more I am getting splotchy clouadiness on them. Here are some pics. You can see it in the upper right (your left) corner of the windshield.
  10. I agee. That seems to be the best choice. The question is how to make the lip so the PE piece is flat across the cowl.
  11. Thanks Greg. That is a great idea for the windows. Unfortuantely I already cut the hole the size of the Photo Etch piece. What I was thinking was to glue some plastic around the underside of thee PE piece and glue it in so it is flat to the surface.
  12. Has anyone done a photo etch cowl? How did you install it? On my body I have cut the hole the size of the pot etch piece. I need it to be even with the surface of the cowl. Suggestions? Here is a pic.
  13. The last few years of the C4 were the best of the breed since they added the LT-1 engine and 17 inch wheels.
  14. The footwells on the C4's are deeper than any other Vette before or since. That adds to the difficulty of getting in or out. On the later models like the C7 they did a You-Tube video of how to get in and out of the Vette.
  15. Congratulations. Looks great. Love the Torch Red. I had a White 85/Red Interior w/ the Doug Nash 4+3 transmission. Still have my 1st Vette 78 Silver Anniversary.
  16. 100 parts. That sounds like a nice detailed kit. Will be nice to see some test shots wwhen they are available.
  17. Thanks Rob. I like the Multi-part engine.
  18. Translation?
  19. Now if they deliver the Z06 then that might bee worth the wait.
  20. Great thread. Thanks for all who have posted to this info about craft paints.
  21. I am thrilled to see this. Hope they do the GT3 race version too. But did you see it is November 2023?
  22. I am think it might be some static electricity that is attracting me dust on the Pet-G. I am going to try to polish the mold some to see what happens. Thanks for your heads up.
  23. Those were cast in Gray resin. I was think maybe some dust on them or the Pet-G but i used canned air to blow them off before heating the Pet-G. The masters had primer one them. The buck feel very smooth to me. I might try to polish them using my micro sanding pads going 4000 thru 12000.
  24. I have some bucks that I used to vacuum formed windows. They formed pretty well using .020 Pet-G. But there appearto be some bumps in the clear. Any idea where I need to look to fix this issue? Thanks in advance for your help.
  25. The dash was a problem. After narrowing the dash some it was stil 1.5 mm to wide. We used a powered sanding disk to do a chanfer on the side edge from the dash back to the quarter window grove.this narrowed the side panels to just leas than 60mm. It then fit without a problem. Thanks everyone for your help.
