  1. Cool. They came with the kit, or you made them, or you got them elsewhere? ?
  2. Whoa! Those seats, Man! Groovy! Paper? Decals?
  3. Nice work!
  4. It looks quite sharp in that color!
  5. You know, I wouldn't have thought that would work - but what you have done looks fantastic! I really like it!
  6. Man, that's cool!
  7. Same here - I think it is a great looking build. By the title, I was anticipating a dragster or at least a scoop sticking through the hood.
  8. Built from the recent issue of the 1969 AMT (Round2) kit. Billy Gooche decals used; Testor's White Lightning lacquer over Tamiya Gray Primer; with Tamiya Semigloss Black hood and spoiler. Parts Pack Bluestreaks out back.
  9. I have both kits, the Orange z28 (split bumper) from a few years ago, and I just picked up the reissue with the full bumper. I started the original (split bumper) last night. with thoughts of doing something "less Z28". I haven't looked at the grill on the new release yet (full bumper). It didn't even occur to me to look for the Model Car Garage photoetch set; nor did it occur to me that the actual grill might be different between the two kits. I guess I should research 1970 / 1970.5 Camaro options a bit ....
  10. Does anyone know if an aftermarket grill is available for the AMT 1970 1/2 Camaro that doesn't include the z28 script? I'm sure some of you are skilled enough to remove the molded script without ruining the rest of the grill thoughts?
  11. I love this website - for things like this
  12. Very nice work on a real classic kit.
  13. Stunning work - this may be one of the most perfect builds I've seen. The paint is just right in terms of glossiness, and excellent photography. Very well done!
  14. Awesome builds! Can you tell us more about the C5RX-7?
  15. I love seeing these old Monogram kits built! Very nice work!
  16. Thanks for all of the great ideas!
  17. Beautiful work! You so rarely see these built - your build looks awesome!
  18. Finished a few days ago - pics in the Under Glass section. Thanks for looking!
  19. Last one finished this year; the Monogram (now Revell) S-10. I built this one from the earlier release. Added parts box wheels, tires from the AMT Sonoma. Paint is Tamiya Dull Red and Light Gunmetal. Dull Red was also used on the interior (sans gloss coat). I used Testors clear lacquer for the finish. It was a fun little kit. As an aside, the re-release has a lot of Syclone parts in it - it's kind of a hybrid Syclone/S10 (as discussed elsewhere). Oh, I built the Slyclone a few years ago. Thanks for looking!
  20. Most epic junkyard!
  21. That is awesome! I'd drive this land yacht every day!
  22. Whoa! This year was pretty productive! Last winter, I joined a local model club (Misfit Modelers, Cary, NC) and that has helped me tremendously in terms of actually completing stuff. Here we go: Revell's 1968 VW Bug: Monogram Packard Boattail Speedster: Monogram Sunny King Ford Thunderbird: Italeri Bell Huey: Monogram Dale Earnhardt "Japan" Monte Carlo: Revell 1937 Ford Pickup, with decals that I botched Revell Snap '57 Chevy, using decals from the OLD Revell Full detail kit of the same: Revell Chevy LUV: Aoshima Toyota Supra: Monogram Miami Vice Testarossa:: Revell Chevy S-10 (Shown here with the Monogram GMC Slycone, based on the same tool): And with that - Merry Christmas!
  23. One more minor update before some final tweaks and I can call it done. Needs tail lights, decals ...
  24. Thank you! Black trim around the side windows and the bumpers is good ol' Tamiya semi-gloss black. I masked using Tamiya tape for the tight areas, and Frog tape (the green stuff) for the larger areas.
