  1. Beautiful job !!
  2. starting to make some progress now all the main stuff is done now. now just a lot of tidy up and mounting brackets etc
  3. Some of you may have seen this floating around some of the other forums, but I thought I may as well post it here as well. I know like I need another project, Flashpoint resins body brass chassis/cage and tin work about 4 days work in it so far make sure you're using flux not glue doh
  4. very cool, pro sportsman chassis stretched ?
  5. Cut the roofs off Ron, not half as much foiling that way . But seriously it kooks like you've done a pretty good job there.

    My 19 yr old daughter had the nick name of Minnie motormouth as she was growing up cause she talked faster than the pistons in small block pulling 7 grand. Anyhow she asked me a couple of weeks ago if she could build another model ( she did the AMT 66 Nova a few years ago). I said yes and we agreed upon the AMT 09 challenger (reasonably simple good parts fit and was one that I'd got reasonably cheap. Anyhow theres the back story, heres what she built this weekend. All airbrushed primer, blackbase coat blue nail polish and PPG lameflake in the clear.
  12. Few things I'd do differently if I was to do another but reasonably happy with it

    just got the foil which I cant get yet to go but heres the latest progress
  14. I would in all honesty lose the Q&A sub category and have it in the model talk. a : its just another thread to clean up and b: most of the questions asked would generally fit into a general model discussion as such anyway. Wouldn't they ? My other point is, as Ace (garageguy) I think it was pointed out, people are generally to lazy to read whether its where to post in the right place or asking what color, what wheels did you use etc when its all right there at the start of the post in question. And although I can see where Brett Barrow is coming from regarding the current off topic section, heres how my take on how I read the whole forum. I look at the title of the post, if it interests me I'll open it, if it doesn't , I dont. If I do open it out of curiosity maybe from a vague title and it doesnt interest me I close it, takes about 10 seconds, maybe. You do a great job of modding? this place and from my point of view Casey is becoming a lot better at it now as well,( he used to be I feel a little harsh( I dont think I've ever been affected either way, just a bystanders opinion)), but I dont think for a minute I could put up with a lot of the flack you two get.

    cheers guys, got the gap between the parcel tray and rear body filled, paint tomorrow and the windscreen fitted so a little progress made
  16. Cannot for the life of me get the graphics I wanted to work out so went with the kit ones , got a couple little things to do ie: exhaust and door handles, wipers (maybe), then It'll be done for now.
  17. Roger, decals turned up today. Thank you so much (again), hope to get a chance to try them out by the weekend.
  18. Doing some fantastic work here Nick, I'm subscribed
  19. That is super cool Mike !
  20. thanks guys ,not quite as low as I would have liked it, to change it would require an almost total rebuild of the frame and interior. Not gonna happen at this stage (maybe in a couple years time) . I think the issue causing the issues is the automatic gearbox hitting on the floor just behind the firewall as the whole engine seems to sit a bit to the right of the car. Oh well, cant tell with the hood on
