moparfarmer replied to Kromolly's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Let the paint settle for a week or so..Looks like you never lost any skills in missing 25 years..Very nice and the color sure Pops.. -
old cars
moparfarmer replied to imatt88's topic in 1:1 Reference Photos: Auto Shows, Personal vehicles (Cars and Trucks)
In all the pictures no matter what age you see more General Motors vehicles..No wonder they were #1 in the old days, pre 1990 -
Very nice, stance and colors look good..Never been a fan though of continental kits on any cars..Your Edsel is going to be a "killer"..Excellent.

68 Charger rear-engined late Hemi Pro-Touring Concept
moparfarmer replied to Claude Thibodeau's topic in Model Cars
Definately NOT my style but the workmanship and quality work is unbelievable..Excellent execution on something you'd never expect from a 69 Charger..This will be one that won't be forgotten..Should be a stand out at shows when your able to go to shows..FANTASTIC build.. -
dull clear coat the chrome plated parts?
moparfarmer replied to youpey's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I use Tamiya Flat clear on Chrome headlamps on kits that still have them..Three or four coats just flows to the edges and looks fairly like lenses -
Welcome Randal,,one thing for sure is you can paint and build clean builds..You'll love it here..Myself I'am into Sprint car dirt racing and Late Model..World of Outlaws and Morton Building series..
-
As I don't usually like cars of that vintage, you hit a hot spot..The first car my son got looked just like yours only with out the V-6..Excellent executation and a quality build in something you don't too often see..Very nicely done and super clean job..
-
When Steve does something it is usually very well done and spectacular looking..One of the better modelers today..
-
If I knew how to take a picture from the 68 brochure and 69 brochure to show you I would..I'am not that computer savvy..
-
Steve, the dash pad on the 68 is thinner than the one on the 69 and 70 "B" bodies..
-
Nice work but something doesn't look right on the model..The size of the portion of upper door by roof looks too thick and he 1/4 window doesn't look like where it should be..B pillar looks too thick..Might be me but I don't think so..

AMT '65 Impala box art custom built with Revell kit
moparfarmer replied to Can-Con's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Fantastic work and nicely done..Sure hope you can paint and by the look of what you show now its going to Pop when you get it done..Waiting to see what the finished product looks like..Very nice work.. -
All these requests for certain kits are nice and all but today its what will make money..You've got to be able to make various different models of certain kits to make money..The new Chevy II wagon sounds like there will be another version..The release of the 59 Imperial was one of one and did very well..Where I live in Canada it was very hard to find one..Moebius did well with their Hudson (which I don't know how because they are ugly) but they made several models out of one mold, same as the Ford trucks and the 55/56 Chrysler..Who knows, maybe someone will continue to make new molds..End of rant..
-
Sweet looking build..Now with Salvino doing the Petty cars you can do Neil's Dodge and maybe the brothers can get a resin and copy the Magnum they used for a while..I remember Neil Bonnet driving one and winning with it..
-
Very nice save and fantastic result..My first model was a 58 Edsel Convertible..Painted everything except chrome/wheels/w/shield Pactra Insignia Red(small rectangular bottles) only option I remember were the skirts..I think I used Comet plastic cement..Your beginning picture sure brought back memories..Nice restoration on your car..

They believe it or not, are not that easy to find..Nice kits though simple but turn our sweet..

Identifying toy car
moparfarmer replied to unclescott58's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Yea, haven't seem my grand kids since Feb 11, 2020..We face time all the time but they sure have grown..Little girl never said boo to me then but now she talks to me on Face time and even tells papa that she love him..When I used to ask if she loved papa she'd say NO..Tanner has grown so much too He's only 5 but looks like he's at least 8 in height wise..If you've got a boat my son in law owns Bricks Boatworks in Shakopee Mn..If we could drive down if they opened border for a week I'd be on the road an hour after the announcement..Miss my family lots and my American friends too.. -

Identifying toy car
moparfarmer replied to unclescott58's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Saw my 10 yr old grandson the other day with a hat like that..Says he's going to wear it as his symbol when he goes into hockey arenas when they open..He says that hat will be his identifying thing... -
Has it really been 40 years!
moparfarmer replied to Bullybeef's topic in Welcome! Introduce Yourself
That's okay, at least you didn't say you were a Maple Leaf fan..There are two teams in the NHL I hate..Toronto and Vancouver..Wouldn't pull for them if they were the only Canadian team left in playoffs..I've hated anything Toronto all my life..Don't know why buy just do..Have a MERRY CHRISTMAS ...
