  1. This looks very interesting! This will be very clean Custom when it gets finished. Great, and about rust... I prefer shiny and clean cars, but rusty Rat Rod for example, can be looking good too. But shiny is the best.
  2. That looks real good. Rusting is great. These Rat Rods are always really interesting to see, keep us posted.
  3. I glued the wheels and tires on their places. They did fit nicely and stance looks pretty good, I think. Maybe that front end could be little lower, but that's good enough for me. The hood isn't still ready for primering, it needs some more bondo, tomorrow I'm going to work with it. Maybe after that I can paint some primer to it too... But body is also primered, but it needs still some work, but it's gettin' better and better. Thanks for looking, comments welcome.
  4. Some more pictures...
  5. Finally an update. Pretty much done since last update... I got the front axle system painted. First I painted it red. It needed two coats of paint before it was completely red. Then I painted some blue there, and some bolts are painted white. Same thing in the rear, but I had to make propeller shaft longer, before painting any details. I have no joints between the propeller shaft and transmission, but that connection can't be seen so well, that it doesn't matter. Also painted inner wheels red, and other side is black. I assembled the wheels and tires. Axles are glued on their places, next I'm going to install tires. Those axles fit fine, I must do some little things to the chassis also. Body is sanded smooth, I'm going to spray new primer coat later today, then I can see if it needs still more bondo and sanding. I'm going to go with these seats, I'll paint them brown...
  6. WOW, great job on the detailing of those engines, and that interior looks very good too. That skull is perfect idea, and it looks very good too. I'm waiting to see this one finished.
  7. Great build! I haven't seen too many Mustangs being built, this one is great exception. Color looks very good, and paintjob is awesome. I like the engine too. Those stripes fit nicely. Great and clean build.

    1936 Ford

    Wow, paintjob is amazing. So smooth and SHINY. Color looks good too. I like the body lines, '36 Ford is great basis for Custom. That grille looks realistic, and this is very clean build without big mistakes.
  9. Great build. Drag Cars are always nice to watch. I'd like to see picture from the engine too. Paintjob loks good, and decals fit nicely. Great job on the side trim also. Maybe I must build one Thunderbolt too..
  10. Wow that looks mean. Great idea of using Camaro's top. This would be great prototype of 2012 year model Chevelle. Maybe 15" NASCAR style tires and wheels would look really good under this, but those Camaro wheels are looking really interesting too. I can't wait to see more work with it.
  11. I have this kit too, but I'm not sure what to do with it.... I already started building it as Custom, but it wasn't good idea... Then I've been thinking Pro Street, or Gasser.... Well, hard to decide. But anyway, first thing, I did, I sold those wheels, tires, too modern interior parts, and too modern engine away. This project sounds really interesting, but I'd like to see 15" wheels on that body, those just don't fit.
  12. Thanks! I worked with the door panels. I glued door handles on, and installed window cranks from '66 Olds 442's photoetch parts. Pictures aren't good, that interior looks really bad in these pictures, but it's better in live. I also started working on the pedals, but they are still WIP, so maybe tomorrow I can post picture of them. Thanks for looking, comments welcome.

  14. When the chat room wasn't working, you had great panic, "we must have it back." Now It's back. BUT: Chat 0 It was like that yesterday morning, afternoon and evening. There's no one this morning either... Well, how about last night? Well, some of you might have a day on that time, I was just wondering, if there's some people at that time. But anyway, it's not so popular, as I thought when watching these topics about it. It's a great "bonus" for this site, but it's pretty hard to use it on night time... We have pretty much users here on the daytime too, but no one is in the chat. This is just my opinion, and don't take it too personally, I'm just bit curious about this thing. This forum if of course the main thing, and it's great that it's working this nicely.
  15. Ok, it's FRIDAY!!! Today I'll see if I got it right, or not. (I believe, not. As usual. )
  16. This would be cool prototype car... But I'd like to go without spoiler. Other way which would look cool, Drag Car. I don't know, where it is heading, but nice job with it so far, I'm watching.
  17. Wow, this is really good looking build! I like that frame very much, it looks so realistic. Nice job with those wheels and tires too, and that shifter looks AMAZING! And that gas pedal is amazing too, I've ran out of superlatives when watching your work.
  18. 1st. Ideas, tips, tricks, etc. 2nd. Meeting friends 3rd. Seeing other builds in live. 4th. Cheap? glue bombs, or kits. 5th. Aftermarket goodies. I'm not sure, which one (4th or 5th) is better reason, but both are good.
  19. That.... Paint...Job... Is... Totally... A...Mazing...!!!! Great job with it, this looks really great! That paintjob is almost better than 1:1 scale show-winners have, truly amazing, can't wait to see her finished.
  20. This sounds really good. Can't wait to see. Where? I can't see them, does someone else see them?
  21. LONG LIVE RUST!!! I remember that. Great job with it, this thing has lots of great attitude. I like Gassers very much and this is really Old School! That rusting is really great, it looks just like in 1:1 scale. Engine detailing looks very good too. Thanks for sharing this one, I like it.
  22. Alright, here we go again, I removed all needless flocking from the floor. I painted door panels semigloss black, but there's still bit of cleaning before gluing other parts to those door panels. Tomorrow I'm going to install window cranks, door handles and maybe seats too. Let's have a see. There's not much flocking over those cardboard-pieces, but seats will cover that mistake. I'm going to scratchbuild pedals, original ones can't be seen from finished interior anymore, so I don't have to worry about them. Also little carpet to driver's side under those pedals needs to be done.... Bit more putty to that chassis also, hope after sanding this, it'll be smooth....

  24. Now I'm getting started with the '32 Ford. I must strip the paint off from the body, but I haven't got time to get new bottle of it. On Saturday I'm going to pick new one, and start stripping the paint. But I hope I can start working with the engine already, so there might be an update coming soon.
  25. That stance is just perfect. It's going to be great build again. That rollgace looks really good and fits nicely under the body. GREAT job with it so far, I'm watching this one very closely.
