  1. I know I'm late sayin' this,wish I coulda been online sooner to mention this before you decaled the Vega Brett, but when I was looking at the pics, something just didn't look right, I went home & checked out a issue of Popular Hot Rodding from Dec. 1973, it had coverage of the U.S. Nationals when the car debuted, the hood scoop (including the normal Vega hood bulge),the roof (including the A pillars & a little part of the front cowl right in front of the windshield) & a stripe on the trunk area should have painted white. Sorry to mention it so late, but just recently got set-up on a computer again (at the local library, where I've been putting in applications). Anyway, the Vega still looks great Brett, the yellow turned out real nice, the Demon is looking good also!
  2. The '57 is lookin' good Tyrone, the paint turned out awesome!
  3. Chris the rear end, master cylinder & the engine are all looking great, can't wait to see more!
  4. The Nova came out real nice John, Da Grump would be proud I'm sure!
  5. Both cars look great Jeff, I remember seeing pics of Don's "Black" 'Cuda from the Last Drag Race.
  6. She certainly came out real nice Tyrone, the engine looks killer!
  7. The car came out great John, the tinwork looks real!, the whole build is just fantastic!
  8. Yeah Dave, I think that they did, I have(had) a few 1/16th Diecast F/C's (a couple of John Forces 'Stangs & Don Schumacher's Stratus's, the Schumacher cars (the diecasts) had a pin that went into the nose of the car into the fuel tank to hold the body down, the chassis was pretty close to the body.
  9. Some nice pics!, of all the ford cars that were out there Tommy Groves were always my favorites (not including the Mopar Hemi cars), his '69 "The Going Thing" & the '70 cars are my overall fav's, nice cars to build Charlie, set them up against your "Jungle Jim" Camaro!
  10. Looks good Chuck, nice job!
  11. Both cars look great,really like the Pepsi Challenger, looks cool, welcome back to the "building" part of the hobby!
  12. The mounts turned out nice Chris, after I saw the 1st pic I was wondering about that little notch on the one mount, then looked at the 2nd pic and went ooohhh!, looks good buddy!
  13. Great idea!, always liked this body, thought it looked cool, seem to be one of the few that like F/C's no matter how they look(ed).
  14. As usual, everything is looking sweet Tyrone.
  15. Glad to see you got it figured out (with help from Bob), looking good Chris.
  16. Enjoying this build quite a bit, the trannie,rear end & wheelie bar are looking great & the chassis also looks top-notch. Can't wait to see some more.
  17. All I'm gonna say is 2 things: #1- Great build Charlie!. #2-What's up next?
  18. The build looks aewsome Ed, looks real nice sitting on the chassis, thanks for pulling it out & shooting the pics for us!
  19. The tin work came out excellent John, the bodywork & paint/decals is also awesome looking. a masterpiece for sure!
  20. Dave, you don't have to worry about the door lines, they were molded into the body because they are supoosed to be there, NHRA had a rule that the door lines had to be molded in. Paint & everything is looking good!
  21. The chassis is looking good Brett, almost done with them, must feel pretty good!
  22. Brackets look good Chris, hope the Blackin'-It works out for ya!
  23. Yeah, I was hoping that they could have been made,Chris had alot of great stuff, just wish I could have found TEM sooner & bought bunches of the stuff, right now I have a couple of the Kelbelco Blowers, Nitrous Fuel Cells, some 3&4 Speed Trannies, Clutch Cans & a couple of Nitous Bottles, had ordered the Firebird body & 1 of the Hood Scoops, but it was to late, never got them. Anyway, the wheelie bars look great!
