  1. Thanks, Its been a fun build so far
  2. Thanks, Its an AMT International Transtar
  3. My first ever Semi build. Whenever I do a kit that I have never done before I like to build a box stock version to "learn" the kit before doing a more detailed build. I have the engine and chassis mostly done but still haven't decided how I want to do the fuel tanks and air cleaner assembly as I don't think I like the "chrome" look on them. Thanks for looking
  4. I just got home from the show. The online registration worked out great. Everything ready was ready when I got there and all I had to do was put my models on the tables! The turn out of automotive models was pretty good with some high quality builds on display. Swap meet didn't really have much for the auto builder though. In addition to the show I spent about 3 hours in the Air Force Museum, a must for the bucket list of anyone who has an interest in aviation. Won a few awards and had a good time!
  5. Went to the "Nebraska Challenge Show" over the weekend. Got to meet some great people, see some awesome builds and even won a few awards!
  6. There is no Factory Stock class?
  7. Went to the big HMCA mosel show over the weekend

  15. Thank you everyone, I posted pictures of the finished build in the Under Glass section.
  16. Finished my first new build in about ten years. While I was taking the pictures I realized that I had forgotten a window net so I went back and made one from thread and masking tape. Thanks for looking
  17. Thanks, The rims are from Ron Coon Resins
  18. Made some progress on the Richie Evans Pinto. Motor is mostly done. I still want to make some oil breathers for the valve covers and i have to make an air cleaner assy. Still trying to find some orange paint for the body and waiting on the wide 5 rims to arrive in the mail.
  19. Made some progress on the Pinto. Chassis is about done, I made the front coil overs from Some Pro Street Chevelle shocks with aluminum rod wrapped around it and fabricated a fuel cell from evergreen sheets. Working on the 427 motor next.
  20. Well I took the plunge and started my first new build in almost 10 years. Never built a modified stock car before and thought I would give it a go. This is going to be a Richie Evans #61 Pinto. Made a few body and chassis mods to get the front of the body lower, set the engine back an 1/8", and shortened the rear of the chassis 1/8th of an inch then filled in the sink marks. Just getting started!
