  1. Did not mean to double post to back up my previous post, it just happened !!
  2. With this incredible model you may have set the record for the most replies in one day !! Congratulations
  3. Great job Ismael. Now that you have built a mid engine race car you will be ready for the Corvette C8R !!
  4. Super well done in all respects. The left off emblems has a nice subtle affect.
  5. I have got the interior pretty much completed. Here is a comparison of the results to the real car. Seats were modified from Revell 5-W Coupe and the 3-W side/door panels were scribed with a roll & pleat design. Floor mats were added. The shifter is from the 5-W with knob replaced with a pinhead ball. Dash incorporates the gauge panel from the Revell Willys Street Rod with an extra gauge and glove box door added. The steering wheel is from the AMT ’71 Corvette with the spokes filled. The Deuces do not have a gas panel so one was installed. I used Testor’s Dark Red enamel topped with Dull Coat and does not look as bright in reality.
  6. Very sharp Bimmer.
  7. Well built.
  8. I have really enjoyed seeing your impressive redos of Russian promo models. Were these models readily available and about how much did they cost in terms of $'s or Euros.
  9. T Thanks guys - I hope to post an update soon. I am going to first complete the interior and then the rolling chassis. Stay tuned.

    I am really getting off on updated and purposed historic customs. Kool!!
  11. Far out man. I am not sure I understand it but I can see this is very well executed.
  12. Your projects are always interesting. I have always enjoyed watching the Speedsters at vintage racing events.
  13. Very, very well done. I am more of an Indy than NASCAR fan but was impressed with Tim's career so I really like seeing your fabulous model.
  14. Great observation. I could not come up with the a good description but you nailed it. Definitely a very unique sectioned shoebox which is what customizing is all about.
  15. Good looking Corvette. Green is a great color choice for a C3
  16. Not what I was expecting when I opened the post but I like what I see.
  17. I cannot get over how perfect the three hundred scripting looks.
  18. Jay Leno would love this.
  19. Wild and very well done.
  20. Great looking traditional Deuce Hot Rod Coupe. Well done.
  21. I did not realise Ebbro had released such an impressive almost contemporary F-1 car and you have certainly done it justice.
  22. Very well done. Hope to see it at the Great White North NNL March 16
  23. Very well done. Both the Falcon and the trailer. I have always be a fan of Falcons and once owned a 65 V-8 4-speed hardtop. Sad that the name no longer appears on a car anywhere in the world. It has even been replaced with Mustangs in the Australian Supercar Series.
  24. This is a beautiful model. You did a great job building it. Speaking about the nose, I wished I had molded the front piece to the rest of the assembly as I was disappointed at obvious the seam was and do not remember any mention in the instructions. I built mine with the Haynes manual as a reference and before I attended the 2013 US GP in Austin.
  25. Hard to beat a Candy Apple 40 Ford Coupe. This has a great current vibe
