  1. Quick, easy question. For those who use canopy glue for their windshields- what brand do you use or recommend? I did a web search and it seems that the price varies widely. Looking for an easy effective glue. Later-
  2. Nice work on the grille. I bet that was fun lining all of those pieces up. Later-
  3. Hey Wayne, I don't mind at all. The more, the merrier. I enjoy looking at your builds here and on FB. No offense taken. Nice build, BTW. Why did it get stalled out? Later-
  4. Glad someone else besides me is excited about this. Lol. I got the BMF done. The worst of this build is done! http:// http:// http:// Just realized that I have no glue for the windows. Going to have to get up in the morning and make a quick trip to the store. I got the wash put on the grille. Enough for tonight. Later-
  5. So, here is where it sat, on my desk for quite a while. Couple years, perhaps. Just needs the BMF done (I hate that part) and a bit of odds and ends. Close enough that I should be able to finish it by tomorrow night, if I get crackin'. http:// Interior has been done for a while. http:// Today I busted out the BMF and got started. After two hours I was here. http:// http:// Then I had to go to a wedding. Now I am back and at it full force. Time to get this one finished. Not much time in the year left. Stay tuned. Later-
  6. Dinner's over. Visited with my wife a bit. Here we go. Later-
  7. Alright!! Get off my case! Lol. I finally broke down today and started the BMF on my El Camino to get it finished. Been working on it for a couple of hours and now I have to stop so I can head to a wedding. Once I get home though, it's dinner and then full speed ahead! Look for a build thread in the Workbench section later tonight. Thanks Doc for the encouragement. Later-
  8. Great looking conversion work. I'd say that you have jumped right in. I agree that the cab looks much better the second time around. I'd be interested in seeing some better close up shots of the rear suspension drop. Later-
  9. Nice looking project. Great work you've done. Where did you get the axles? Later-
  10. Beautiful car and a great project to build. Looking forward to the progress. Later-
  11. Thanks. Someday soon it will get finished. Later-
  12. http:// That SHOULD be this one for me. Just needs the BMF done and then get the grille and bumpers on. Been staring at me too long! Stop it, will you!?!? Stop staring at me!!! Later-
  13. Looks like you're getting it dialed in. Nice picture. Later-
  14. Erik, Here is a build that I did in the Tamiya Pearl Green. http:// I think that the Mosport Green is a different shade. More in the Gold family perhaps? At least it appears darker to me than the pearl green. Thanks for the help guys. Looks like I'm going to have to go aftermarket for this. Later-
  15. Thanks. I have an old can of that Hampstead green that I bought years ago for a project and never used. I may have to look at it again. Anybody else got any ideas? Later-
  16. Does anybody know of a close color match to 982 Mosport Green in one of the major hobby paint lines (ie Tamiya, Testors) or would I need to go to a company such as Scale Finishes, etc? What, if any, have you found? I really love this color but I am looking for something more "off the shelf" than having to order it. Later-
  17. I like the look of this, especially the Mach III body sides. Very aggressive appearance. I'm looking forward to seeing how this turns out. Later-.
  18. Nice mods so far. Love the 55 Chevy headlight brows. A suggestion to backdate the style a bit might be to add in the wing windows. Perhaps a chopped version of them. This way you may not have to change or replace the windshield frame to return the style to more of a 50's custom. Later-
  19. I picked up some new window material last night from Hobby Lobby to do the windows that I messed up in cutting. I'll be stopping by my buddy's house tonight to hopefully pick up my wheels. Next is the designing of the sanders and tanks for behind the front bumper. Going to be completely winging that since I have not been able to find much reference material on them. Trying hard not to get stalled on this one and let it sit. Later-
  20. Wow! That turned out sweet. Love it. Later-
  21. Congratulations on the placement! Can't wait to see it. Later-
  22. Love it! Looking good. I've hit a slight slump with mine but I need to get back on it. Later-
  23. I agree. Great trade with Mr Muppet (Sam). Would do it again, anytime. Plus, you can't go wrong with the avitar! Later-
