  1. Danno, more then likely, he'll scratch-build the oil LOL!
  2. The wheelie bars,fuel/water tanks look great John, everything is going together excellent!
  3. Same Galaxie Trailers I have, they sure are nice ain't they!
  4. The engine is just looking great Chris, it is for sure going to be one killer engine!
  5. The front shocks look great John, can't wait to see the back of this baby done-up!
  6. The paint & decals look good Chuck, nice build!
  7. Everything looks real nice Greg, that Camaro body looks awesome!,here's an idea for the headlight/grille-taillight decals in case you can't get any done,what I've been doing (like for what I've done for the Nova,Dodge Polara & Willys bodies I have), I put in a search for the year & make of car, go to the images & look for a good pic (head-on) of the grille/taillight sections of the car, print up a couple of pics (in different sizes), find the size that fits the area, & print it up on a decal sheet. Also Slixx is going to be making a P/M Grille/ Taillight decal in 1/25th & 1/16th, they have some pics of the decal sheet on their website (the decal is not made just yet, it's still listed as upcoming), & I believe there are grilles etc. for the 70.5 & earlier Camaros.
  8. Can't wait to see it done up Tyrone!, the Galaxie Trailers are real nice, have 2 of them myself (in Fl. ), & i just got a e-mail from Scott today that my front struts are on the way too! can't wait to see them!, looking forward to seeing the 57 come around .
  9. More & more gaskets!, this engine (the entire build really) is just fantastic Chris!
  10. The interior is coming out top-notch John, lookin' good!
  11. The oil pan & gasket look great Chris!, doing the dry brush was probably better then spraying, it might of been kinda hard to get the right touch to just spritz the paint on.
  12. Coming along real nice John, the new tin looks good.
  13. The body is looking good Brett, can't wait to see this Camaro all done! (no rush, make sure to take your time!)
  14. Nice start, the chassis is looking good, I'll be watching this as she comes to "life", the USA-1 was one of my favorite All-Chevy F/C's along with the Professor & Mr. Chevrolet himself.
  15. The chassis/engine came out looking great Charlie, can't wait to see the body done-up & mounted on the chassis.
  16. She looks KILLER Tyrone, one of your best I think!
  17. The Camaro is looking good so far Brett, must say, that roofline looks really low.
  18. Came out looking real nice Brett, Great job!
  19. Brett, try using a sealer/primer on the body, it sounds like the line is "ghosting" on you, after puttying up the front nose piece of my Nova & primering it, I noticed that the putty lines were showing up thru the primer, now I have never had anything "ghost" on me in over 40+ years of building (also never had a problem painting a different color over bodies molded in red or any other color), but I keep reading about other people having this problem & saying to use a sealer. So I went to my local Lowes & bought a can of BIN sealer/primer, tried it on the nose & the putty lines disappeared. Let me know if this helps you out at all.
  20. Also notice the different rear wheels on the 2 chassises, the space-frame logghe was running American "Daisy" wheels while the later "mini" car with the digger chassis was running the "Bearclaw" style wheels, but both were running the BBC.
  21. Hey Brett, one of the ideas I've been running thru my head for a little while for paint/scheme ideas for a chevy or a ford build (it doesn't matter if it's a F/C or a P/M), steals the idea from the Mopar, you know the BIG M mounted at an angle on the side, well for the Ford it would be a big blue oval with Ford written inside at a slight angle going over the rear fender & going into the door, for a chevy the bowtie in the same manner. Sound like a good idea?
  22. George, I believe it's 1/25th, if not then it's 1/24th, but I'm going with the 1st guess.
  23. The engine is looking good already!, you & Rom are just killing everybody!
  24. Looking good, can't wait to see how the engine turns out
