  1. Nice survivors there. Funny how style tastes change over the years. I have the front clip to that first one and wondered what kit it went to. Never would have known if you hadn't posted it. Later-
  2. That looks great! Everything about it is sharp. Beautiful build of a nice car. Later-
  3. I agree! The color combo is perfect and your build is clean. Perfect stance. Later-
  4. Roger, That looks fantastic! Nice melding of the two bodies for an unusual build. Great work. Later-
  5. Got a bit more done today and got it mocked up on the wheels with the two different tops on. Got a lot of adjusting on the up top and the suspension to do to get them to sit right. Later-
  6. Thanks Jean-Pierre. It's finished. Later-
  7. Thanks Sam! Means a lot. Later-
  8. The Ford is something that I started a few years ago. I added the headlight buckets from a 57 Ford and sectioned the body about 3/8 inch, IIRC. The flame mask was from Lazy Modeller and was very simple to work with. Here is a link to a YouTube video. I forgot when I installed the mask that I had sectioned the body so the mask did not fit the sides as it was designed to. Later-
  9. Thank you very much everyone. I appreciate all of the fine comments. Later-
  10. Thanks Steve. The shift lever and parking brake lever were the parts I was actually referring to. The parking lever looks like it had a small box surrounding it. Either way, I don't think they were in the box when I got it. I'll have to scratch something up. Later-
  11. Thanks guys! Later-
  12. Eric- this is not the best of kits, but for a quick build it is fine. I got a good start on assembling the interior today. Not sure if I'm missing the center console or if it is at home. Got to take a look for it tonight. I might have to scratchbuild one. Later-
  13. Thanks David. I appreciate it. Later-
  14. Not only did I finish my 41 Plymouth, but I finally got a coat of clear on my sectioned 49 Ford and the interior assembly started on my VW Cabriolet. Later-
  15. Just finished this one up today. Fun build with quite a few modifications, yet the look is pretty stock. Not usually a subject for customizers but I think it looks pretty good. May do another one soon with a chopped top, fender skirts and even lower suspension. Later-
  16. Finished. Moved to Under Glass. Later-
  17. Very nice work. Looks good for a 10 year old build. Later-
  18. "Beautiful" job! Your weathering looks spot on. Those Tamiya Bug kits are very nice to work with. Later-
  19. Got my end of a trade with Kennyboy. Thank you Sir! Very happy. Later-
  20. Thanks fellas! Thanks to Tom Geiger for some replacement parts! Got most of the interior work done today. Also polished the body and painted the chassis and suspension. Moving forward on this one. At this rate I should have it done by the end of next week. Now that I look at the interior panels and seats I'm not real happy. I may respray them tomorrow with a light shot of the maroon. Later-
  21. Got all of the chrome trim on or detail painted today. Ready tomorrow to put the glass in and the body on the chassis. Should be finished tomorrow. Later-
  22. Made me think of this pic I found. Later-
  23. Wow! Nice, subtle color combo. Just perfect! Later-
  24. Love the color and the graphics on this Marc. Perfect looking build. Later-
  25. That looks very nice Ray. The paint color and the plan to build it as a stock build are perfect! Nicely done. Still got to get me one. Later-
