  1. You can purchase it direct from Microscale. Clcik on "Finishing products" at the top of the page. Microscale
  2. Great looking license plate. For the benefit of those of us that don't receive the magazine, would it be too much to ask how you did this?
  3. Diymirage, I found that intake manifold and carbs in my Mopar engine parts bin, but I honestly don't know what kit it came from. And again, thanks everyone for the compliments.
  4. Great build, I love the paint and decals, very well done.
  5. Funny you mention that Sam, it's the exact reason I built this one. Thanks for the compliment.
  6. Thanks everyone, for the nice words. I've always been a Chevy guy but I have a soft spot for these B-bodies as well.
  7. I built this from the AMT kit, one of my favorite kits. I think I've built 5 or 6 of these over the years. It's painted with House of Kolor paints; the base color is Euro Red, and I masked off and fogged the side stripe with Silverwhite Pearl, Tru Blue Pearl and Violette Pearl, front to rear, then 3 coats of Shimrins clear and polished out. The wheels came from a Revell tuner kit and the tires are from Pegasus. Air cleaner removed to show the engine.
  8. One word; Wow! I love your true fire flames. I'd be very happy to be able to paint like that. Super job.
  9. I like it, very kool.
  10. This build is hardly old news. Very nicely done, nice chop, great color choice. I did this one many years ago from the old AMT kit, but I wasn't brave enough to attempt a top chop.
  11. Very nice, great wheel choice.
  12. Thanks again everyone for the kind words.
  13. I love AMC muscle cars, too bad there aren't any current kits available. Very nicely done and that engine is gorgeous.
  14. Wow. I really like this Jeff, nice deep color and a real ground scraper. Gotta love a low Kustom like this one.
  15. Now that's thinking outside the box. Great idea, nice execution, great color.
  16. Very nice lead sled, I love that color.
  17. Thanks everyone for the kind words. Railfreak, only one caveat with the kit, the outside rear view mirrors are very fragile, even after being glued to the body. Just use a little extra caution if you attach them before painting as mine snapped off twice after painting the body. Next time, I'll use some thin brass rod to super glue them to the body before painting.
  18. Another great Roth kit, nicely done, that Roth book is great. I think I've re-read it 5 times over the years.
  19. Very nice build. I just love these Roth kits.
  20. This is the AMT Concept Camaro kit, painted with House of Kolor Bittersweet 2, with Shimrins clear. Nice kit, relatively easy to assemble with no major fit issues.
  21. This is the old Monogram 32, released under various names and styles over the years. It's painted with House of Kolor Candy basecoat Oriental Blue with Tamiya TS-49 Red interior and wheels. I swapped in the small Hemi engine from the AMT Ala Kart kit.

    I really like that color. Care to share what it is? Nice job.
  23. I like the new look. It's faster as well. Good job.
  24. Great build, perfect stance, like the color choice and photography.

    What a great build, very well done. I sure regret not buying a bunch of JoHan kits and promos back when they were cheap.
