  1. Premiere did make a Champ pickup kit, but it was kind of crude and underscale. At any rate, good luck finding one today! I think SJS did a custom Champ pickup in resin years ago, but it also is no longer available. Yeah- I'd buy either one... or a Hawk!
  2. Not a big fire rig builder myself, but I enjoy seeing them. Very cool model!
  3. Call me crazy, but I've always liked the '58 Chevys better than the '57's everyone else seems to love! This one's a beauty- just the right amount of custom touches, but it's pure " '58 Chevy-ness" still shows through.
  4. Couple of golden oldies! Or is that moldy oldies? Anywho... some classic R&R resin FoMoCo iron... '72 Effie '67 Galaxie And here's that Bandit Resin Grabber hood for the Mav I got a few days ago... good stuff!
  5. Fun fact- Neil Young is co-owner of Lionel trains today! 'Nother Fun Fact- Mike Gross (the dad on "Family Ties" and Burt Gummer from the "Tremors" movies) is an avid model railroader. What? I look in on other hobbies sometimes!
  6. Lessee... Red? Tastes like burned paint. Black? Tastes like burned paint. Yellow? Tastes like bannanas! No, no, wait... burned paint. Purple? Burned Paint? Burnt Amber? Burnt Amber...
  7. If you don't mind that rich, 'baked enamel' flavor!
  8. Actually it was Pyro who cut the corners. Lindberg just saw some reason to reissue the kit! It'll take a lot of work for this kit to look cool, but seeing what you've done in the past I think you can make something cool out of it!
  9. Good (or is it bad?) news... I'm halfway through yet ANOTHER Volksrod buildup! It's even a -gasp- WATER COOLED Vee-Dub!
  10. Is that the old Earnhardt Wrangler car?
  11. I'm not even a huge fan of Chevy motors and I wouldn't mind one!
  12. Usually, when I spend months on something it ends in colossal failure!
  13. Already looking good, Jeff!
  14. Oh... that's just the fuel filler and cap- the tank is just beneath the rear window on the interior's package shelf.
  15. Very cool... I hope 'my last build' doesn't mean this is the last one you'll build!
  16. This one will be cool!
  17. I like where this one's going- AWB drag cars are cool!
  18. Looks quite a bit more spendy than I'd like, but a beautiful car never the less!
  19. Here's my latest 'stalled project finished in just a few hours' model... a '56 VW rod I started about a year ago, and just finished up last night. Amazing how fast they get finished when you actually WORK on them, isn't it? The Gunze Sangyo body is chopped beyond recognition with '27 T fenders, and the early Ford front axle has the '56 wheels while the rear axle carries Heller Citroen truck wheels. I made up the pipes from solder, and used parts box junk for all the rest. Here's a link to the whole buildup-http://public.fotki.com/ChuckMost/rat-alley/56-volksrod/ Thanks!
  20. It comes with the Revell Shelby Series 1 kit- though it's molded to a late model Corvette torque tube/rear mounted transaxle setup. I cut all that stuff off and added a regular 6-speed transmission from a C4 'Vette. Thanks guys!
  21. Can't go wrong with a Studie... nicely done!
  22. I'll keep my eye on this- I've got the reissued boat kit somewhere, and I just need a little prodding to build it!
  23. I've always wanted this kit, but seeing this one has convinced me I don't want it. No... I NEED one!
  24. Looking better all the time!
