  1. Really great to see such a good looking "Woodie"
  2. Very elegant looking Deuce in this color combination. Hopefully Revell will bring the 3W back someday soon.
  3. Very impressive in all respects - design, execution and beauty
  4. Since appearing on the Stevens International TBA list there has been no mention of when and if we can expect the re-release of the much desired Revell '32 Ford Sedan.
  5. Thanks Misha - Enjoying your MGB build. Hope to see you soon.
  6. Thanks Pierre and Tim for your encouragement. Since completing the chassis which I consider the difficult part I am having trouble getting motivated to get the body finished in fact I started another project which I forced myself to put back in the box yesterday. Hopefully I will start painting the body soon.
  7. All of the under body assembly is now completed. I did have to reduce the height of the distributor to gave adequate hood clearance. There are very few color photos of 005 in 1964 but in the ones I have seen the exhaust appears to be silver rather than white. I can now move onto completing the body in preparation for painting.
  8. I am always blown away by how real your models look as a result of superb craftsmanship, fantastic photography and a great background. I am looking forward to seeing your Mustang up close.
  9. You did a fantastic job enhancing a Danbury Mint model which normally are exceptionally good to start with.
  10. Hi Steve - As Juha Airio personally noted - Rumors about my death are greatly exaggerated. I am still building. Juha Airio - Model Cars Magazine Forum
  11. Thanks guys - I appreciate your comments. It was a very interesting project. The Garage 56 is now part of history and I assume it will find a home in a museum but when will it again be seen and heard by race car fans?
  12. Wonderful to see a beautiful model of such an historic automobile as a result of 3D printing.
  13. I am currently travelling in Scotland and today a number of Mustangs passed going in the opposite direction. I wondered if any of them were right hand steering. I pulled into a car park and there happened to be a right hand steering Mustang parked in front of me.
  14. Love that green.
  15. Absolutely excellent to see your outstanding Grand Sport and all the well deserved accolades. Time to be posted Under Glass. Looking forward to seeing your next project.
  16. Scott - Very impressive Grand Sport build especially all the added detail. I am away until mid October so the completion of my GS is still a ways off.
  17. Really neat to see the first and current generation of Broncos side by side. Both are very nice models as well. I went to the Ford dealership to see the first Bronco as soon as it was released and I have been checking out the new ones both the Sport and the bigger one.
  18. Very impressive new school model car building of a recent iconic subject
  19. Thanks Duane - I checked them out and they look very nice. Will require some fancy painting but looking forward to seeing a completed Garage 56 build using these decals. Have a look at 3 Amigos Decals #24 GARAGE 56 2023 CAMARO 24 HOURS OF LE MANS Decal Se – Print it Decals
  20. Gorgeous build of an outstanding kit from MFH
  21. You certainly did justice to one of the most eye catching liveries of F!
  22. First time I have the two versions of the new Bronco side by side - big brother & little brother
  23. I did find some time to work on the engine. It is now painted and assembled except for wiring, plumbing and exhaust. I could not resist seeing if the hood would fit flush. This is the first time I have test fit the completed interior to the chassis and body with the fuel tank installed. I previously mentioned that I had reduced the height of the fuel tank to give clearance for the differential. I am not sure if it was a direct consequence of this modification but I ended up having to trim tabs on the top of the rear frame cross member and the mounting points for the spare tire frame. After these mods were done everything appears to fit and the hood closes flush. You can also see the small triangular extension to the forward edge of the read flares. I notice I still have some work to do on the driver's side cowl vent.
  24. I have always been a fan of show rods. I especially like the photo of your Coupe with your Sedan.
