    New Builds!

    Great looking builds! Nice subjects too. Glad you made it back to building. You have some fine work there. Later-
  3. Beautiful job on your build. I love the color combo and the fine details you included. Superb looking model! I have one that I am finishing up right now. I just have a few small things to add. Later-
  4. Almost finished! Only have the license plate decals and the exhaust tips to put on. I also have to finish the roof rack. The paint is not perfect but the timeline of this one is the mid 60's of a well kept vehicle that has been on many family vacations across the US. Later-
  5. Thanks. Steve- that looks great! Later-
  6. Got the rest of the windows in this morning. Next is to get the body on the chassis. I remember those days. I had thought about opening the glove box to do that but I didn't figure the effect would be worth the effort. Later-
  7. Having a cup of coffee this morning! Later-
  8. I got the windshield and tailgate glass glued into my 57 Ford wagon today and made a Thermos for the front seat. I made the cup for the Thermos but it is drying in the dehydrator so no pic of it. I used a bit of decal from the 58 Vette luggage for the bottle. The cup was made from the end of the cone K&N style filter from a newer Mustang. I should be able to get the rest of the glass in tomorrow. Later-
  9. Looks interesting. Got any new photos? Later-
  10. I c- notched the frame. Not highly technical, nor high quality work, but effective. Later-
  11. I understand about the fit. I never understood how they got so far off on the fit of the glass in this kit. Here is mine, posted here not too long back. Later-
  12. Beautifully clean work. Your paint looks amazing. Nice job. Later-
  13. I love the beautiful paint work you did. Excellent results! Later-
  14. That is such an amazing build for a kit that leaves a lot to be desired when it comes to fit. I just finished the same kit and, although I thought mine was a decent job, yours is outstanding! I love the color too. Smooth, shiny and gorgeous! Later-
  15. Thanks. Next time my wife goes to Joann fabrics I'll have her ask about it and maybe pick some up. Later-
  16. Yes! Fantastic looking combo. Every time I see builds like this it gives me hope for all of the spare parts I have lying around. I know that there is SO MUCH potential in them. Thanks for the inspiration. Later-
  17. Great looking build Rob! I like the idea and your execution. Can you explain more about the printing of the seat pattern on thin fabric? How would I do this and what would I use? My wife is pretty computer savvy and is getting into quilting. It would be a no brainer to have her print some stuff up for me, if I have what is available to do it. PM me, if you need to. Later-
  18. Nice looking build Roger! I like the volunteer firefighter theme and that you didn't permanently add the lights. Where did you get the wheels. I'd like to do a similar thing with a built International Scout that I have. What brand and color of red did you use too? Later-
  19. Very nice indeed! I have a resin convertible kit of the 56 DeSoto. I've been trying to find a good interior to use. I figure I'll use the 55 Chrysler 300 interior for mine and try to scratch build a dash. Later-
  20. Great! Thanks. Beautiful color for this build. Later-
  21. This is looking very nice! I like the custom touches you have done. You're giving me some great ideas for mine. Thanks. Later-
  22. That looks good! What color did you use? Nice work your doing here. Later-
  23. Looking amazing! Great work your doing on this Dann! Later-
