  1. no, thanks for building. it's coming out great.
  2. I did not realize those were so small a wheelwell. great job on the stretching. I rob most of the parts from these kits and have yet to build one. where are you getting the resin motor from. have never used a resin motor but I am going to give VCG resins a call and cet a few of Manny's motors. would like to see more of this bad butt machine.
  3. hmmmm, very sneaky.
  4. hehe, yep, still building....... when time allows. got a few more on the bench. stretched the wells, what chevelle are you building. I have quit a few of those (revel and AMT ones) but they all get ripped apart for parts. would love to see what you are doing. i have turns a few street cars into race cars though. i have to go back and actually see what i said i was working on......
  5. let me start by saying that I do not play either, my wife will buy a ticket every now and then, but on the other hand, I have wasted money in a lot worse ways than buying lotto tickets. just between the age 18 and 24, I have spent thousands of dollars on women's drinks knowing my odds of anything coming back were a heck of a lot greater than the lotto's odds. and what about all the gentlemen's clubs we frequented? I can understand your position on this, and it's fine. everyone waste's money in their own grand fashion, just with I had a couple million to waste.......
  6. that sounds reasonable. and I don't want to sound like I am tearing up your build, oh on the contrary, I ask to find out why people do what they do. their basis behind their ideas. this is looking great. nice to see some pro street builds going on.
  7. WOW!! very cool. and the color.... You will not miss that one in the grocery store parking lot. Really an awesome job.
  8. great start. love the idea, in fact love it so much I did that with a 65 impala. not nearly as good as yours, but it just may have to come back out on the bench after seeing this one. great job. I will be watching.
  9. that will be very cool, love sanitary drag cars without all the paint and decals. I'll keep watching.
  10. I have a question for you dog owners, when you feed your dog, does he scarf it up immediately? Wilson eats when he feel fit to eat, he could go a day or more without eating, then will casually stroll over to his bowl and heat at a leisurely rate, never like you see on those dog commercials on TV. does anyone's dog eat this way?
  11. beautiful dog, mine can't wait to get the stuffing out of it. then he carries it around the house, leaving a pile of stuffing on the floor
  12. that's hilarious... well, from my side of things. doesn't that "look" they give you when they realize you have them dead to rights, and they just stare at you, then go back to what they were previously ripping to shreds!!
  13. I direct your attention to post #8, it reads.... Posted 09 May 2014 - 12:11 PM those are great answers, but just what would it do to your personal life, your kids going to school, neighbors, strangers, even businesses knocking on the door, your wife/girlfriend wants to travel and you don't, your wife/girlfriends friends or girlfriends what to travel with you. would you pack up and move to a bigger house, different state, try to stay anonymous? would you have a gambling problem in Vegas? I would imagine that it would get mighty old having people hit you up for cash every day, you would have so many friends, women at your door, temptation would be there 24/7..... that's what I am talking about.. too hard to keep all that money under wraps. you may want to live quietly, but it seems almost impossible. we had a discussion on this at work and it was shocking on just how many said that basically they would set their kids up and move on, without their wives. wasn't an overwhelming amount, but enough. you read about so many people going bankrupt after hitting the lotto, I know how they do it, just can't for the life of me figure out how, if you know what I mean. don't they watch, aren't they careful?
  14. very nice. going to be a killer. any idea on motor, color? keep on going,
  15. yep, just as I suspected, I see pictures with the core support in place....... never mind.
  16. awesome looking. the color really pops on that charger. take another look at your frame supports in the engine bay, they may be positioned where the radiator core support goes... of course I am going back to read the rest of the posts to see if you are actually using the core support. if it is, just trim the core support around the bracing. love those weld wheels, have a set on my 1:1 and 1 1/25 set that just sit in the box waiting to be mounted to something. nice to see pro streeters alive and well.
  17. very nice build, very realistic build......
  18. nice build, great job all around.
  19. nice build Kerry, have to admit, didn't know what "Cavillino" meant but I had to take a look, very different, gonna have something with a Ferrari motor going in it, if I can find the right one. awesome job.
  20. beautiful build, nice to see such stunning builds coming 90% from the box.
  21. looks like a wheel stander to me.
  22. that is the most hilarious thing I have ever seen! love the name too, my dog loves the water, but will not put his head under. no way. he thinks the water is the enemy and bites at it.
  23. keep going, its looking really good. doing a great job on it all. if i can make one small comment, I think with a tube frame car, you would mount a fuel cell instead of mounting the stock gas tank. I have a 60 starliner I pro streeted and am using a modified stock gas tank so..... just all me kettle, I guess. still looks great.
  24. my suggestion,,,,,, I have nothing, your doing a great job and I wouldn't change a thing. great light bar by the way.
  25. those are great answers, but just what would it do to your personal life, your kids going to school, neighbors, strangers, even businesses knocking on the door, your wife/girlfriend wants to travel and you don't, your wife/girlfriends friends or girlfriends what to travel with you. would you pack up and move to a bigger house, different state, try to stay anonymous? would you have a gambling problem in Vegas?
