  1. Just won these 65 Riviera wheels off of eBay this morning. Later-
  2. Come on up! I'd love the visit. I'm still sorting out some of the tires and parts kits he gave me a few weeks ago. Later-
  3. No idea but I believe they would be good for the vacuformed belly tanker he gave me. Later-
  4. Last night I stopped by my Buddy's house for a visit. I finally dropped off the Monogram 1/8 scale tires I had bought him. He, as always, gave me so much more! Here is what he kindly have me! Boxes of parts: bodies, tires (kit and aftermarket), wheels (kit, resin and aluminum), engines, PE sets, resin bits and decals. What a buddy! I now have hours of exploring and sorting to do. Later-
  5. That looks amazing! I really like your idea of putting tape down before BMF. I have been having trouble with having to remove the sticky residue. Great idea!! Later-
  6. Beautiful work. Nice and clean. Later-
  7. I, too, would like to see some progress on this one. I have a couple of 53 Customs (one is a more modern custom) that are on the bench. Later-
  8. What he said. Really like the shots in the water to get the reflection! Sweet paint job too. Later-
  9. Lol. Now back to our regularly scheduled program. Later-
  10. I say go for it! Should look great! Later-
  11. That actually sounds like a good plan to me, although, I think I may have mental problems. Lol. Later-
  12. Wow! I hadn't checked in for a while. I am blown away with the work on the body! Looking amazing. Later-
  13. Excellent work on this. Your hard work paid off well. Beautiful paint too. Later-
  14. It is extremely thin, like BMF and once the glue sets it works just the same. I really can't tell any difference. Later-
  15. Got one side done. Time to keep.moving forward. If I'm correct, I have managed to get 5 projects completed so far this year. If like to make it seven. Later- http://
  16. CabDriver- It is a very thin foil that is used in commercial cooking. A buddy of mine works in a restaurant and they use it for wrapping potatoes to bake. He gave me the whole box probably 10 years ago and it has, what I would guess, is a thousand sheets, each divided by a thin sheet of paper. Tonight I started my foiling. Drinking a scotch ale, listening to Lucero and fighting this foil job. http:// Later-
  17. That looks very sharp. The chop looks very similar to one that I did on the same body. Your Tamiya black is great and encouraging. I am getting ready this morning to paint a 57 Chevy Black Widow in the same color. I hope mint turns out as clean. Later-
  18. What an excellent build of a beautiful car and such an amazing gift! Good job. One she will be proud of, for sure. Later-
  19. Beautiful color for this car. Nice job on your build! Later-
  20. Love to. Just shoot me an address. Lol No. Seriously....... Later-
  21. Got two 72 Fords and a 64 Pontiac, along with many other cars pickups and trucks to get rid of. The Ford wagons even come with extra rear glass. Later-
  22. Tonight I'm making my own BMF for my projects. I should have enough foil.... Later-
  23. I have gotten mine wet sanded and ready to BMF. Then I'll do a light clearcoat and polish it out. I haven't touched mine for a while because I brought it and my 57 Ford home to do the BMF but haven't had the time in the evening after work to even look at them. Hopefully sometime this coming week I can get the BMF done in a couple of sessions. Later-
  24. Got any contact info? Later-
