  1. Wow! I'm always impressed with what folks can make from bits of styrene! David G.
  2. I'm glad to see this one again! David G.
  3. Excellent weathering and detail! David G.
  4. That is one very cool little car! Great work. David G.
  5. Best one yet! David G.
  6. Amazing beyond description! David G.
  7. Would that make it a "Slummer"? Just kidding! Nice build, good paint and detail. David G.
  8. Now that's one monster of a truck! David G.
  9. Kind of reminds me of a cap gun set I had when I was 5 years old. David G.
  10. If I didn't know better, I'd have thought it was a real 1:1 car! David G.
  11. Patience. Be prepared to re-do things on occasion. Practice on an old car body a bit to get the feel for how the foil handles. David G. edit; Don't try to do too much in one sitting. This stuff may wear you out more than you realize.
  12. I have to agree, that's a good list. I'd consider purchasing each one of those. David G.
  13. I have deep admiration for your patience and skills. Amazing work. David G.
  14. Excellent work on this one! Lots of yummy detail. David G.
  15. Here's an update on my '63 Chevy Glue Bomb project... I got a little bit of work done on the interior. These feel like 1963 colors to me. You can also see the lack of engine detail. The carburetor is just a plastic cone that supports the air cleaner. I got the engine painted and added some exhaust pipes to the chassis to (more or less) connect the manifolds to the exhaust system. The view from the bottom. I used a #77 (.018") drill bit and some wire between the pipes and the chassis to help them stay put. That's all for now. Thanks for taking the time to look. Comments are always welcome. David G.
  16. It's nice to see such an unusual version of such an unusual car... and so well done, too! David G.
  17. Top notch work on this one! keep the good stuff coming. David G.
  18. One of my favorite cars of all time. Excellent work on both builds. David G.
  19. That thing just scares the buh-jeebers outta me! David G.
  20. Excellent weathering - nice dents and dings too! David G.
  21. Yeah, people have become so used to seeing the Elements that they're no longer considered ugly enough and folks are now buying Cubes instead. He is! David G.
  22. What's an "engine delete plate"? Is it just a piece with the bottom bits of the engine that snaps over the crossmember? David G.
  23. Thanks Dan, but given the marginal quality of the engine, I think I would prefer to glue the hood down. My intent is to keep this one as simple as possible. If I get a firewall, then I'll have to find a nicer engine, which I'll have to wire and plumb then detail... etc, etc. I don't think that this kit is worth all that. Thanks for the offer, though. David G.
  24. I play bass- the guitar, not the fish. I haven't played much in the last couple of years, though. Hey, does anybody in the Phoenix area want to get together and jam? David G.
