I agree , Fantastic job Ed, glad I wont have to compete against this !

my only built 62 so far

revell kit box stock with suede blue paint need to get another one and do it shiny and my AMT kit sorta modified a bit got a couple more AMT's do do one day, theres sure some great insperation in this thread

looking real good so far

I tend to buy one everytime I build one so hover round the 250 - 275 kits to build all the time. I have around the same amount built but that total gets bigger each month.

Thanks guys , Got a bit done over the last couple of days. second time its been painted this week :x working nights and not sleeping during the day isnt good for modelling skills.Still got a bit to do on engine, interior and paint but heres how she is right now Colours are Dupli color Metal specks purple, transparent yellow and a Dupli color orange down below

Just make up a few cardboard templates based off the kit body mounting panel and cut (or make bigger) as needed, once you have one that fits alright adjust the actual swivel point on the tin till you get your desired ride height

My revell build and old amt old pro

heres my 58

Great job Rob, thts got a great finish to it

Its in the drag sectioin but I built this in the three days after you started Doc

Yeah i know, I'l have to puy them in the interior door panels when I make them

The old AMT snap fast kit's getting a bit of an upgrade. Body mold lines ie around windows and doors was nearly non existent and when I finally managed to cut the hood out found it was about 2.5 mm thick. Made some gutter channels for the front guards using a top sportsman floor for the munting huge tubs and rear suspension,Front and rear tires are from the AMT pro street superebee as is the basic engine. Parts box supercharger and hat, resin seats and carbs . Stance is as it sits

Dont do it !! lol . It seems to be some sort of time vortex that if you dare enter sucks away hours of your life at a time. The good thing about it is a LOT of people who have never joined forums (of any sort) are sharing a lot of never seen before car pics, modern and nostalgia so reference or eye candy can be in abundance.Trouble is finding it to start with, but once you find some they inevitably lead to others.

The wife built a convertible version with no real issues that I remember, I have 2 to build but yeah they;re a bit bigger than 1:24th imo too

Thanks guys, I appreciate it . Mike , yes polar lights cuda. Steve, no I work at night, this was done in the afternoons, Quick breakdown, Monday broke the seal on box, dealt with the little amount of flash and assembled the frame and engine halves. Tuesday , dealt to the injector pin marks on tin, sanded body and put most sub assemblies together.Then primed everything to be painted. An hour or so later painted everything then cleared the body. Wednsday , installed glass then decaled body while glass was held by tape till the glue set. Sanded rear slicks and put wheels and tires on car then foiled to finish.

great work Ed

Nice work T ! Its coming along great

couple of outside shots, some of the decals are proving to be rather elusive and I cant even find some of them on the web, however it looks pretty good sitting on the shelf without them so I'm calling it done for now

Thanks guys,First up here's a new pic of my original cop out duster built towards the end of 07 and here's the new version started 2 days ago The blue was a custom mix dupont blue with a bit of pearl white to lighten it and when I 'd painted the body I misted some pearl green around the body lines, hardly visable but you can see it in person in certain lights

Beautiful job on the pro stock Dave, you need to show these guys your Pony Express (nevermind its in the big boys setion, you guys have to check it out if you havent seen it)

Looking good Darryl

Well it was a cop out , started last night (put frame together) and some sanding. Everything else was done this afternoon. Just going to be box stock with a different paint scheme (as I already have a copout done). Get a load of these injector pin marks Darker pic is a better representation of the colour should be finished tomorrow night.

Thanks Niko. Does anyone have a good copy of the ATI logo on the front of the Al Segrini car?
