FINALLY!! Someone who understands where I'm coming from. Lol! Actually, I think that there are many of us out there. Your project looks like a great one. Just the right look. Later-

Thanks. Verdoro green is one color I want. I also want to get KJ6 Avocado Gold......and maybe some Tripoli Turquoise and........ From what I saw your 1964 Mercedes 396 blue is listed twice. One.looks a bit darker than the other. Which did you get? Later-

So I found Automotive Touchup paint on line but is this a paint that is carried at chain stores like Auto zone or Pep Boys or something? I'd love to find a local store that carries it. Later-

Since I am building two Subies at the same time I needed to change the title. I've been working on the interior of the stock one today. I have the interior just set in place for now. I still need to paint the flat red accent color on the door panels and seats. Other than that the interior is completed. http:// http:// Later-

Got a bit more done during my breaks today. Since I burned through the paint in a couple of small spots I sprayed a couple.more color coats and then three more coats of clear. http:// http:// Also got some work done on the interior. Sprayed a coat of Duplicolor dark grey- turned out to look like flat black to my untrained eye. I misted on a bit of grey for contrast and to help simulate a bit of carpet. http:// Any comments or criticisms welcomed. Later-

Wow! I love the conversion that you did on this. You should get back.on this and finish it up. Later-

That looks fantastic. Amazing detail work. Later-

Very nice! I want to do mine like this but in Verdoro green. Beautiful work. Later-

That is looking great! I wish I had never gotten rid of that kit now. I love the green on it and can't wait to see how the polishing comes out. You're doing fantastic. I hope the move in is going well. Later-

Thanks for the info Rob. I'll check then out. Later-

That is looking fantastic! Love the custom work on the interior. Not overly done. Just perfect. Did you ever figure out a wash for the seats? I would think that a mix of white a d light grey would work. Just dark enough to bring out the lines. Your interior reminds me of a custom interior I was working on for.my 66 Nova. I used modified leather seats from a Dubs Suburban and made a full length center console. I like how you added the console top from the 50 Ford (iirc). I have questions about the suspension on the 4X4 in the background of your first pic. I am working on a lift suspension for the 99 Silverado and trying to get some ideas. Got any photos of it? Later-

Very nice work. This is looking like a fun little build. Keep it coming! Later-

Looks like I'll have to do a search....... Later-

This is one of my favorite body styles. I've got two in progress. The first is one that I cut the top completely off of about 25 years ago. I finally started painting it a few months ago (maroon fenders and cream body) The second one I just chopped the top on a few months back. I also have an unstated kit on the shelves. Can't wait to see where yours takes you. Later-

This is going to be great! Nice to see a plain jane once in a while. Who makes the resin body? Later-

That is a great looking color on body! Good to see your modeling and house projects are moving forward. Downtime is a good time for planning out new projects. I'm looking forward to see your next update. Later-

Looking good. Nice work on the motor and I love the lace paint. Keep it up. Later-

Got a bit more done. http:// http:// More tomorrow. Later-

I decided to work on making the hood on the custom STi. Cut out the scoop and carved the opening. Man, that is some thick plastic! http://yo What I'm shooting for. http:// Later-

Martin, Thanks for the great comment. I also liked the dusting of red on the copper. Still not sure what I'm going to do about the wing on the blue one (soon to be orange). I've been looking at photos of wings and I'm not sure if I want to scratchbuild one. The work on the red one is progressing, although a bit slow. Got the chassis detailed and the wheels detailed and installed. http:// http:// Nothing special here. Going to start on the interior today. Later-

I began the painting of the chassis today. Later-

Nice save! I love the color of this one. It fits it perfectly. I believe that fuel injection set up is the same as what is on the Vette that I just got in a box of built ups. I'll have to check on that. Later-

Wow! Nice work. I think you're doing just fine with your bodywork skills. I have one of these that was given me by someone at work and the roof and pillars have been damaged. I was wondering what to do with it. I'll be watching how you progress. I have quite a few different front clips that I will have to try out on mine for ideas. Later-

That turned out to be a stunner! I have the newer release to build and would love to get a couple more. Yours looks fantastic in red. Later-
