  1. This is the project that got me back into building after being away from it for more than thirty years. It's been about a year and a half since I started it. I think I needed to develop some of my skills in order to progress further. It's not nearly done. but I've made some good progress in the past week. The reactor bay. Finally, there's wheels under those fenders! Of course, with the power plant in the rear, the trunk is in the front. Gizmo detail I hope it was worth the wait. Hopefully soon, foil glass and chrome! Thanks for looking. David G.
  2. Awesome work, simply awesome! David G.
  3. Your paint came out nicely- looks great! David G.
  4. From Hubbard to Akron, then to Phoenix. Welcome a-board! David G.
  5. Now that I'm working pretty much full time again, I don't have as much time for building as I'd like. I try to spend at least 1/2 an hour per day working on one of my builds. Consequently, I have yet to finish a single one this year. David G.
  6. This just gets better and better! Your interior treatment is excellent and works well with the overall feel of other mods. David G.
  7. What else is there to say? Fantastic work on every level! David G.
  8. I've also used the steel wire from garbage bag twist ties. After stripping off the plastic coating, the wire inside is about the right scale for brake and fuel lines and has a nice metallic look. David G.
  9. ...that's a first.... David G.
  10. I'm sure I've said this before, but I'll say it again because it's true. Your skills and craftmanship are awesome! I can't wait to see this completed, thanks for sharing the progress pics. David G.
  11. I grab the twist ties that come in the box with the plastic garbage bags we buy. We normally tie the tops of the bags "rabbit-ear" style, so all the ties that come in the box are "extra". Also, having never been twisted, they're nice and straight and I think the wire is a little higher quality than the bread-ties. David G.
  12. Excellent conversion! David G.
  13. Once again, wow... just wow! David G.
  14. Excellent rust work. With the right backdrop, it could pass for a 1:1. David G.
  15. David G.

    Boss 302

    With the Chargers, Camaros and the rest of retro movement, I'm surprised that Ford hasn't built one of these. Yours is excellent, great detail! David G.
  16. Well done, I love the color combination. Good luck in the contest. David G.
  17. It's coming along nicely. Good color choice for the interior and excellent foil work. David G.
  18. Phantasm? I don't think I'd ever imagined painting that car that color, but in some odd way, it works. David G.
  19. I built one of these too. In spite of the mold lines, and the slightly warped frame that mine had, it's a great kit and I enjoyed building it. Yours is coming along nicely. The paint job you've done looks great. David G.
  20. Very impressive! It's really shaping up nicely. David G.
  21. Excellent weathering and paint. The missing trim pieces really kick it over the top. David G.
  22. Here's one I built a number of years ago, a 1950 Chevy with a six cylinder. David G.
  23. Good point. David G.
  24. That works surprisingly well, it really changes the whole character of the vehicle. Excellent work! David G.
