  1. Picked these up yesterday from a guy at work. The Beemer is sealed. The other two are sealed inside. Later-
  2. Did some repairs on my buddy's Willy's pickup for his widow. I made hinges for the hood and reattached the door hinge. Time to give it back to her tomorrow. Later-
  3. Thanks! I'll have to check that out. Later-
  4. I just got this sealed inside kit in a trade. I have to say that this is the first kit I've ever had that I am a bit afraid of. It may be well beyond my capabilities. Later-
  5. Thanks! No, unfortunately I have not worked on it. As a matter of fact, when this popped up that you responded to, I had to go back and was surprised to see that it actually was my build! Lol. Thanks for the jolt. I may get back to it soon. Been trying to finish some started projects lately. Later-
  6. Great Score! Especially the Cobra and the Cougar. Later-
  7. It was mentioned earlier on pg 1 (back in 2015) by another poster, but I just finished building this MPC Mustang that came with both a V-8 and a 4 cylinder. Later-
  8. Thanks Carl! Later-
  9. Got the flash cleaned up off of this JF body tonight while watching TV. First pic is before. Next two are after an hour of work. All ready for sanding and priming. Later-
  10. Thanks guys! I really think the color combo came out nice. Not too flashy and not just plain metallic blue. Later-
  11. Ice work on this so far. That exhaust work is great! Waiting for more. Later-
  12. Lol! Thanks Tom. I'd love to. But how do you think I ended up with so many started projects? ? Someday soon. Later-
  13. Thank you guys very much! Later-
  14. Got these great resin 20 inch Snowflakes in the mail today! Finally, after buying the Jimmy Flintstone 06 Firebird piece in 06 I finally found some wheels that will fit and look good. Now for the easy part-Getting a set of the blue Pontiac "Chicken" decals for the build. Later-
  15. Thank you guys! Scott- it is a much better kit than I had first thought. Not exactly top quality, but a great kit for its age. Went together with no hiccups. Later-
  16. What a cool idea! I never would have thought to do this. Now I want to build one. I have so many spare bodies just lying in a tub. You've given me an idea to try. Thanks! Later-
  17. Very nice build! I love the Nassau blue and the detail work on the undercarriage. To me, this is what a Camaro of this era should look like. Later-
  18. Nice build of a very famous car. Great job! Later-
  19. Wow! Beautiful color and fantastic detail! Very sharp build. Thanks for sharing your work. Later-
  20. That turned out great! Nice custom work on it, especially the taillights. I like the color too. Later-
  21. Thanks everyone for your fine comments. Glad you like it! I think this makes #8 for the year. Later-
  22. Thank you! Yes. This kit came with this engine and a 4 cylinder. Later-
  23. Just finished this one up tonight. It is the MPC Snake Bite Mustang Cobra. I bought it as an unpainted but decaled built up and I stripped it down. Paint is Testors Viper GTS Blue with Testors silver of some sort. The pinstripe along the hood bulge and along the body molding is Lavender. I wasn't confident of my choice of striping at first but I really liked it once I got it on the body. The window glass was pretty scuffed so I decided to just spray it flat black on the inside. The windshield decal was left over from the OB. Engine detail is just the basic engine. No wiring or plumbing. This was a fun build that went together very easily and was quite enjoyable. Hope you like it.
