  1. Looks like a caliper bracket to me. Bob
  2. It's looking full blown to me Harry. Very nice indeed sir. This kit is enjoying a bit of a resurgence. Bob
  3. This is coming out superb bro. Love all the details and am glad you posted up close n personal pics. Should be a show stopper when completed. Bob
  4. Saw this on BBC's Top Gear and Hammond seemed upset it wasn't trying to kill him as often as most Lambos do. For my money this is hands down the BEST yet to come from that shop. OK the Countach is plain SEX. The Muira is dripping with Primordial ooze AND Sex. But this says P#SS oFF, i'm out for a jaunt. I'll be back in 14 seconds. WHITE is the color of choice for me. OH, NICE build BTW. I'm getting one as we speak. Bob
  5. Absolutely Stellar driving and TRUE Balls To The Wall right foot action. This is where the talent and excitment is. I got chills watching this as compared to ANYTHING American. Motor Sport is still being done correctly somewhere at least. Even the NHRA has gotten boring for me with its cookie cutter cars. The only thing left is the straight up POWER those cars have. This is why I wax nostalgic with Drag Racing as well. GREAT Vid! Bob
  6. Really? We are going to get 2 world class builds of this kit? OUTRAGEOUS! I'm watching this one. Oh, BTW, it's looking superb. Bob
  7. Sanding anything is a PITA. But I do it because parting lines annoy me more than bad paint. Filling seams is the other thing I find particularly troublesome. But this I also do. The rest is a joy to me. Bob
  8. STUNNING CUSTOM PAINT! I never use BOLD, but this deserves it and so much more John. Bob
  9. Z'd to the MAX! I'm starting to dig customs more and more when I see them built like this. ATTITUDE! Bob
  10. OK, that is seriously killer! Outta the park bro. Bob
  11. Looks great buddy. You nailed the color. Bob
  12. I've been watching from afar John, but this is sooo over the top buddy. The color coats are going to be a challenge and I for one will watch slack jawed as you knock it out. As always, STUNNING.......... Bob
  13. Wowzers that has MAJOR eyeball appeal! Great color choice. Classy. Bob
  14. I have a clear case in front of my terminal at the NAPA I work at. I put a car in there as I finish new ones and let it sit there for a couple of weeks till I decide to replace it. I have gotten compliments and offers to buy them from time to time. One day this guy came in and asked how much I payed for the die-cast. I laughed a bit and explained I had built it. He said he built models and didn't believe that the paint job on it was my work. I chuckled a bit and pulled out the box from underneath the counter and that pretty much ended it right there. Now when he comes in he goes right for the case to see what else I have whipped up. I also have 2 customers who collect die-cast cars. One of them has given me over 10 unbuilt vintage kits over the last year. I promised him I would build his in the bos service station to display his own cars. Model cars have started many a conversation for me. Bob
  15. My 2000 Cavalier has a 2.2 litre four cylinder. My hope is to stuff a 2.6 litre Ecotech with a roots style blower into it. Bob
  16. Very cool, welcome to the forums. Bob
  17. You will fit in quite nicely with builds that nice. Outstanding both of them. welcome aboard. Bob
  18. I am very saddened for you brother. I cannot say more since I have never experienced loss of this magnitude. I hope you find comfort in the time you had together. All my best. Bob Frias
  19. I agree. Pics need to be MUCH larger. Bob
  20. We have several wild squirrels that we hand feed where I work. When they want a peanut they come to the door and stand up to peer through the glass. They are so comical and very smart. Bob
  21. Very nice indeed Sir. Looks like a handful. Bob
  22. Killer paint Roger. What did you try that didn't work out? Can't see anything amiss from here bud. Gorgeous. Bob
  23. Got mine a few days ago with some others and I must add that I am very pleased. Chucks decals are on the money and visually excellent. Cannot wait to apply them Bob
  24. I wish I still had my Raleigh Chopper. That came out nice. Bob
  25. Stunning stuff as usual Dave. Coolberg, with 20 posts you may not know but there is NO reason to quote his pics from 3 posts up with "JUST AMAZIN......" for your only contribution dude. Dave, you continue to please us mortals. Bob
