  1. Another cheap bounce card is the white backside of a for sale sign. They are cheap, flexible and can be used for styrene sheet for scratch building. Later-
  2. I love the work that you've done on this. I wouldn't have figured the wheels would look good, but they actually fit the car quite well. Nice job. Later-
  3. Bruce That looks great. Excellent paint work. Where did you get the diamond plate for the bed? Got enough left to cover the top of my 67 GTX radiator? Later-
  4. That thing is cool! Your level of detail is outstanding. I am examining your rear suspension work. I am scratch building a custom rear suspension for my 53 Ford and I am trying to see what you have done. Could you post some more photos of the work you've done on yours? Keep it up. I love this one. Later-
  5. Actually I could use those parts if you'd be willing to trade them. I have a shortened 40 Ford sedan body that I want to build but have nothing but the body. That is exactly what I was looking for. What would you want for it????? Later-
  6. Nice work you are doing there. It's good to see that you are delving into new territory by customizing it. Adding those custom fronts and rears takes a lot of putty and sanding. I like that you decided to make your 61 a convertible. I always thought about building a 61 and adding the roof from the 60 on it. Keep at it and I'll be watching. BTW- How's the finger doing? Remember, it's not customizing till you draw blood. Later-
  7. I like this one very much. It gives me some ideas for the glue bombs I have been toting around for years. I especially like the detail painting on the wheels. It gives them a whole new look. Any tips on how you did it and what color you used on them? Later-
  8. That is a beautiful build if a great kit. Love the 50's color. Thanks for sharing. Later-
  9. Thanks for the info guys. Looks like I'll be looking for the parts from the M8 when I get around to it. Later-
  10. Nice looking ride. Perfectly weathered. Where did the tires and wheels come from? Later-
  11. Other than the GT and GT 40 did Ford ever build a rear mounted engine? If so, what kit has it? I have been thinking about this and can't recall any. I want to do a mid mounted two seat Fox Mustang that Steve Stanford drew. The kit would have to be 1/24. Later-
  12. Bruce Nice to see you back around these parts. Your El Camino turned out great. I love the color and the custom wheels. Keep in touch and I'll stop by soon to show you my progress. PM me with your phone number so I can call you beforehand I head that way. Later-
  13. Thanks for the info. I'll be looking forward to the photos. Later- Thanks for the info. I'll be looking forward to the photos. Later-
  14. Looking cool so far. What all comes in the VV kit besides the grille and diffuser? Got any photos of the diffuser? How much does the VV kit cost? Lastly, how is the quality? I'll be watching this build closely. Later-
  15. Very nice color combo and stance. Great job you did. Thanks for sharing. Later-
  16. Bryan- This one looks great. You should finish it up and then take some photos outside in the sunlight. It looks like it would sparkle very nicely. Fine work. Later-

    Nice work. Love the interior color. What brand and color is it? Later-
  18. I love this kit. You have a good start going. That stance and the tires and wheels are great. I like the idea of a driver for this one. Keep it going. Later-
  19. Thanks for the interest shown on this one. I haven't been doing much building lately. Not only have I been busy, but I have not had much interest in building lately. Today though I dug out a spot on the desk and got the suspension finished. I had a couple of shackles and a bunch of resin bolt heads to add. Once I got them done I painted a few coats of flat black over everything. Now I will do some detail painting with other colors. I still need to finish the interior and the engine next. Sorry, but I don't have any photos of today's progress yet and I am on my phone. I'll update soon. Later-
  20. John, Glad to see that you are making progress on this. My offer still stands. If you need ANYTHING from the 37 Ford Pickup kit, drop me a line. I've got a box full of parts from it and the panel truck waiting in the wings for you. Later-
  21. John, You've done some nice work so far. Would it be easier to use part of a second cab to extend it though? May be less shaping. I have an extra cab and lots of extra parts fro this kit that I could send to you. I could also send some half round styrene that would be the same size as the body molding. I should have some that will work. Let me know. I am sorry to hear about the loss of your father. Later-
  22. Here is the second one. For some reason I can't copy the image code from Photobucket like I normally do. I had to copy the images. My computer went down a few weeks ago and I just got it back up yesterday. Maybe that has something to do with it. I don't know. Later-
  23. I picked these two up from the LHS last week. Seems one of our own passed and his widow brought in what he left behind. There were a couple large moving boxes full of various kits. I picked these out because I liked the subject and the stance that the guy had come up with. I look forward to finishing them up. The best part was that I got them both for $15. The Toyota is missing the brush guard and one tire and wheel, a well as a few other parts. More in next post. Later-
  24. Patrick- Congratulations! Nice looking Mustang you have there. Looks like a fine car show too. I used to live up north around Harrison (St Joe, actually) for a couple of years in the late 80's. I love Arkansas. Later-
