  1. This one is great project too. I've been waiting for the update, and now I have to say that those stripes are looking really nice. Detailing is simply outstanding.
  2. Great project going! That frame looks really good, and I like how you did the doors. Engine looks really nice also, this topic is really interesting. Can't wait to see more. Now it looks like we got lots of Pro Modified projects going on, well, PM is a great group.
  3. That interior looks pretty weird... But I like it, nice job. This is very interesting project again, those turning front tires are working nicely. Interesting to see the end result.
  4. Great idea to convert Dodge Magnum to wheelstander. Personally I liked that first paintjob better, but this one isn't bad... Great job on it, something really different.
  5. Thanks Jim! I like also these Classic Chevys, and of course with shiny paintjob. And I agree, Red color fits nicely to '57, and of course other models too. Hood needs to be painted, but right now, I'm waiting for better weather, so I can paint it outside...
  6. Finally got the camera back. But I haven't had time for building on the last couple of days. So here is the picture of that body, which I painted inside. Headliner is flat white, and otherwise it's matt black. Tomorrow school ends at 12.00, so maybe I can get some foiling done....
  7. Nice job with it, great to see some commercial vehicles being built.... That paintjob is really nice, and I like those decals. Engine looks good so far. Keep it going, I'm watching this one.
  8. I'm not 100% sure, but quite sure, that it is: Y-1 2211 Banana Beautiful color for '70 Challenger.
  9. Great pictures. Those are great reference shots also, needs to bookmark that site, thanks for sharing.
  10. It looks very good. I like the Mooneyes Dragster in 1:1 too. This build is great, paintjob is really nice, and I like the detailing. Rear tires are looking realistic. Nothing wrong with it, maybe front wheels aren't perfect, but aftermarket ones are so expensive, that using those from the kit isn't a crime.
  11. Great color choice! Paintjob looks very good too. I'll be following this one, your projects are amazing. Keep it going.
  12. Thanks, Mark! Interior turned out pretty good, and I'm really happy about the end result of it. I've painted the body inside, and today I will put some BMF, no pics because I haven't that camera right now. Maybe tomorrow I can get it back, and then some pictures.
  13. If you are building your first build, maybe painting those could be easier. So use Masking tape, and paint those trims with small brush very carefully. It takes time, but end result is worth it, if you can make it. Here I didn't use the masking tape, only small brush and silver enamel paint. End result is not perfect, far away from that, but it's pretty good I think. It's built many years ago anyway.
  14. Engine looks amazing! Is it running? This will be really nice when finished, can't wait to see more of your work with it. Please, keep going.
  15. One more Must Have kit... Great looking heads and intake manifold. This is great body style for Custom and that's why I need to get one.
  16. They are looking really good! Love the colors on both and paintjobs are nice. They are looking very clean and nice builds. I have also one waiting for builder, but I don't know do I have inspiration to build it, this is just not my style of bikes, needs to be more Old School style.... Well, maybe some day I'll build it and make huge modifications...
  17. Very nice build, like it very much! That color is great, and paintjob is amazing. I like the engine work also, nice job with Box Stock build. Maybe needs to continue my build also.....
  18. If someone knows, where Len lives, maybe someone who lives close, could make a visit to Len's house, and take the Snowball and send it to the next builder... Or something... And I'm not saying that anyone should have to steal it.
  19. Haha, I was sure that it looked like model! I'm happy, I got this one right after few wrong guesses...
  20. Today I installed those coil over shocks. They didn't fit so nicely, but I managed to get them glued. I'm almost finished with the body painting from inside, tomorrow I maybe put some BMF, if I have time.
  21. What, I didn't get it. So is Len Geisler holding this project, but he should have given it away to next builder, or what? Hope you can get this thing rolling again, it was very interesting.
  22. Yes, it's fun to build something different, like this, great way to relax and have fun. Now need to get a steering wheel and install that one. Well, there are lots of things to do but front axle is maybe the biggest one. I've scratchbuilt one from brass to that '32 Roadster, now need to make an other one.
  23. FANTASTIC Buick, as always John! That color fits perfectly, these '70 GSX Buicks are looking really nice on 1:1 scale. Your color is bit different, than the original one, that's why I like it. Also that paintjob is truly amazing, VERY shiny and smooth as glass. Detailing is just amazing, and that air cleaner looks just like 1:1 sized part. Whole car is amazing, I can't even complaine about those wheels, it's so nice that those wheels don't make it look bad. There isn't enough words, so I could tell, how nice it really is, maybe the best model, I've seen. Now I'm going to pick up my jaw pieces from the floor...
  24. This looks just great! I like the weathering of it, very realistic. Especially those Drag Camino textes are looking really good. And those parts on the bed are looking good too, keep these models coming.
  25. Thanks, Tim! That black one is built with lots of time and work, this one is bit like faster build and it's just for fun, not going to be a show winner or something. I got this body for free, and idea was to build a Rat Rod of it. I know, I could build it better but then this project should be too large and it might never get finished. But it looks pretty good, I think, even if it's not so realistic as it could be. Headers are from solder, I drilled holes to cylinder heads and glued those pipes with super glue. Then just I bended them to their shape, and glued together. I'm going to glue somekind of pipes where those headers end, so maybe they look more realistic then. (Hope you got it).
