  1. Wow, really nice looking woody. I really like the wood effect on the sides.
  2. How about staying on for a while longer. Looks real good so far. Any decision on colors yet?
  3. WOW!! Stop posting real pics, this is a modelers forum.
  4. Awesome Pinto. Like the rear window detail.
  5. True they are getting hard to find, Don't even ask about the prices they are going for.
  6. Hey Dan, nice paint job! Looks really kool!
  7. Nice!!! Like the green and black combo.
  8. Since it is a curbside, need to detail some other areas. Trying to build a current version of the car. These can be seen at Alfa Romeos Looks like these little rockets have quite a following over there in Europe. No back seat so: Change my mind on the wheels also: Be Back later.
  9. Man, this is way KOOL!!!!
  10. This one in particular came as a curbside, no engine. (Gunze Sangyo came curbside, Tamiya version came with a engine) Since what I want to do is finish a couple of my models that are halfway built, this one is staying as a curbside. After checking this website on the Alfa Romeos Giulia, I haven't stop thinking about a engine, but I probably just start on the engine and after a couple of weeks throw it back in the box, and that is what I do not want. Thanks all for Your comments. I will keep posting.
  11. I am a regular musclecar, streetmachine fan but sometimes I like to build something different. This is a project that I had started a couple of years ago and left behind. Now I decided to finish it. The model itself has a lot of rubber parts besides the tires. The complete engine bay, interior door panels and seats are made of rubber. I decided to change that to plastic and resin. rubber engine bay replaced by plastic. door panels also replace with resin copies. rubber back seat. look I am after. Will post some more later in the week.
  12. Keep those post coming. I will be watching this one very close. This is one I've had in progress for the past 5 years. Doing some work on it and putting it away to work on something else. Any website for the wheels, what tires are You using on the rear.
  13. Really nice, very Original.
  14. On the front tires the body itself has a bunch of holes that were on the real car, I guess they were there for ventilation. I only drilled them out with my dremel and painted them according to the template provided. Was going to paint them black but did some research and found some great pics of the real car and they happen to be painted blue metallic.
  15. Wow!. Thanks for the explanation. I have tried that method only to do like 50% of the work. Tried 5 minute epoxy for the lenses but they seem to yellow with time or crack after a couple of months. Built one of Pauls Chaparrals a couple of months ago. These models are great quality & look very kool when finished. Here ->> My Chaparral Thanks again!
  16. Nice work, like the details. Can you tell us more on how You detailed the gauges?
  17. I will be watching this one very close! Keep us updated.
