  1. It all's coming out great Clay, like the fact that you showed all the problems/mistakes that can be made & that it doesn't all go together 1-2-3. Heres a idea for you, after you get done with this beast (after a well deserved break I'm sure), since it is a Mustang, how about a another Camaro, maybe do a 1/16th version of "Blackbeards Revenge" !
  2. 1 Magneto supplies wires to 1 set of sparkplugs, just like a real car,only doubled,I believe the wires from the 90's & up come out thru the top of the mag.
  3. The pics weren't there the first time I checked this section, they are now tho, she looks even better in the daylight Rom, watch out for your snake! LOL!
  4. Really, it's your choice for whichever you like best, me, I like the 3-hole, but the 4-hole does look good also (confusing huh LOL!)
  5. Looks good with the body on it
  6. Now here's the funny thing, I have no problem seeing the pictures here, but on the "Under Glass" section, I get the too many views. As I said before Rom, GREAT BUILD
  7. Scott, go to my builds that I have posted (ADRL Pro-Nitrous Cars), I have pics of the 2 engines I'll be putting in my builds, I also have the Nitrous Fuel Cell from TEM pictured under the Nova & Comet stuff, also the Nitrous Bottles, Air Bottles, Bellhousings & Transmissions pictured are TEM.
  8. She came out beautiful Rom!, the detail on the chassis/engine is excellent,the paint is just awesome, the jacket/helmet just set eveything else off. Glad I was able to go for the "ride" as you put her together. Time off is well deserved. BUT, don't take too long off, can't have all us fans be "Rom-deprived" LOL!
  9. Looks great Clay!, the chassis is coming along beautifully!
  10. the windows/door panels are awesome looking Rom,& the visor on the helmet, top notch!
  11. It looks good to me, the firewall looks great!
  12. Of course, the helmet came out excellent Rom, must be hard painting something that small (I know it's 1/16th, but still, that detail must be hard to do), like the Dodge Ram decal!
  13. Chris sounds pretty much on track to me with the color
  14. Louie, I went checking myself & couldn't find anything on that pictured car. However, I did find a site with a '61 Impala supercharged P/M. You can check out this site & see if it'll help you at all : www.bertansracecars.se/docs/engine.asp?nodeid=26 , the car does have a sloped nose which is different from the CR body.
  15. Nice build, the color came out nice!
  16. Rom, besides seeing the War Path, I would really like to meet my fellow models & MCM Forum friends (You, Chris & all the others), but being unemployed, no car, it's really doubtful, I live here with my sister & my niece (who left today for a visit with family in Fl. & won't be back till the 9th, they also took the only camera in the house so pics of my builds will have to wait), I don't know how she'd like driving 2 hrs. to Phoenix so I could go to a Model Car Contest. As far as my builds are going, I'm planning on scratch-building the oil pumps,fuel regulators,nitrous/fuel solenoids, I checked out a certain engine builder & got a new idea for the Nova's engine (no real changes, just have to redo the oilpan), I saw that the "new" engine has a custom made 7-stage oil pump, so I checked out the pump on the manufacturers website, which led to a couple of questions, I e-mailed the guy and got a response in a few hours, I'll need to make a new bottom piece for the RG oilpan. The wheels in my head are a-turnin'!. I won't get to far ahead, so when the camera (& my sister/niece) get back I'll be able to take some pics.
  17. He's using a RG (Ross Gibson) engine, Ross's engines are really good, I have 5 of them, the BBC Next Generation Semi Hemi (Nitrous), a Ford Pro-Mod Hemi (Nitrous)a RoadHammer (Mopar) Hemi (Blown) a B-1 Pro-Stock/Pro-Mod (which I misplaced & can't find!LOL!) & a McGee T/F motor.
  18. Waiting to see her all polished out & ready to hit the track!
  19. The 'Vette is looking good Wayne, the new hole looks like you won't need to do much repair work.
  20. As I said before, just beutiful Rom, wish I was able to see it in person
  21. That's the only pic I can find of the car showing the roof myself. I put a message on Melanies Facebook site, I'll let you know if she replies.
  22. I just went & checked different pics from Bing images (under R2B2,In & Out) & from Melanies Facebook page, there are just a couple of pics of this car (I'm surprised how few), & I saw only 1 that showed the roof at all, and it was not a good pic. But here is what I'm gonna do, I'll post a question to Melanie on her Facebook site & ask her, maybe she can either say or have a pic.
