Treasures Vault--What's in Yours?
W-409 replied to Dr. Cranky's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Not yet, not yet, but soon... It's now on post's hands, this week, It'll be here, I guess. -
Clean build,as always, Roger. I like the paintjob on it, and decals look very good too. Engine detailing is amazing, and I like the overall look, it's really realistic. Keep these coming.
-
This is really cool! I shouldn't be worried about the hood fit, mostly it will be with the hood open? Color looks good, and paintjob is smooth. Like the engine detailing, and interior looks good too. Those opened side windows are great idea, and they are done really nicely. I like the real thing too, something like Corvette, but it's a Pontiac. That should be different. I did enjoy following the WIP topic, and finished result looks good. Keep coming.

Thanks, Cliff, that picture helps. I just found one too, so maybe I'll build that part with those pics. Thanks. And thank you, Rich! White stripe fits better than black one with red, I think. I know, that the white primer should make the color bit lighter, now it's bit dark as you said, but I like this shade of red better. This is just correct color for '70 Super Bee, I think. Thanks both, there might be update coming in next couple of days.

Little update to RS V8 Corvette. I put some putty to the body, and now it's getting closer to primering, but there's still lots of sanding left. Some chassis work also is coming ahead. How about the other projects, I'd like to see some progress of them too...?

You can find Decals By Lucas here: http://decalsbylucas.com/ Also Modelexpress.net is selling some of decals from Lucas, but I think, that website is having all of them maybe. But they seem to be good quality, I've one set of them, but haven't tried them yet.

Thanks, Tyrone! And thanks, Cliff! And that red line on taillight panel is a good note, I'll paint that one. I have one clear red paint, and that will work fine, I think. Now needs to find some reference shots from that wiper motor too. Thanks, both!
-
Thanks, Mark, Brodie and Joe! The wiper motor is still missing, I haven't find one from my parts box, maybe I must scratchbuilt one. Also there are still lots of little things to do... Little update. I glued the lower front panel on its place. (what is that part name in english....?) Also grille is glued on its place. I detail painted the taillight panel too. Next step is building the wiper motor, and installing shocks. Hope I can finish this one soon...

Thanks, Richard! Now I haven't found any dashboards for that Rat Rod. But I'm going to build it from styrene, then I can make it look like what I want. Also front axle needs to be built and also some other things to do before getting it on all four wheels, and close to finish.

Weathered 64 Chevy C10
W-409 replied to BigEdsGarage's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Amazing how realistic it looks. That weathering is done very nicely, and great to see these Farm Trucks here. Engine looks nice too from what I can see. Also I like that wooden bed, it looks realistic too. Nice job with it. -
Hello, and welcome to the board! Great to see new members who like to build American Cars. Greetings from Finland, good to see more European people here on MCM.
-
As Bill said, there's a five picture limit. But of course you can make a new post and post more pics there. The Del Ray looks good, colors look very nice and paintjob is smooth. Wheels and tires are perfect choice for this build and I like the overall look. Interior is nice too. Keep building!
-
That's looking great. Good to see '61 Impalas being built like Pro Street style. The paintjob on this one looks good, and color is really nice. I like it. Engine looks very good too. Nothing to complaine...
-
Those first wheels under the Impala. Those second ones are looking awfull, I think. (not an personal attack) Nice job with them all, can't wait to see more work. Keep pictures coming.

New twist on "On The Workbench" (Update 8/25)
W-409 replied to Stickit2gether's topic in WIP: Model Cars
That paint looks cool. I like the theme, and it fits nicely for that Merc' body. Keep it coming. May I suggest: Those plug wires are bit too thick. Maybe thin material would look better on them, but I still like that chassis, and engine. -
More pictures... Edit: It made a new page, pics of that horrible Ford also on the page 2.
-
My next finished model after that '55 Chevy was also 1/32 scale. Lindberg's '49 Ford. That kit was horrible, but I built it Box Stock, and that wasn't good idea. Interior and chassis are the best parts of the kit, but body doesn't look realistic at all. I painted it with spray gun and then some BMF. No anything special on this model, just OOB from a bad quality kit.
-
Those little parts what needs to be painted fit nicely to the body, so I installed the glass and then interior to the body, and now body and chassis are together... It's starting to look pretty good, I think. Next I'm going to wait those little parts being ready, then final assembly. Brett, thanks for the kind words!

Show me the 4 bangers!
W-409 replied to Patrick2005's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I'm going to install Flat Four for this '32 Ford Bonneville Racer. Not so far yet, I have just glued engine halves together and some putty also.... And this Renault Alpine has 4 cylinder engine. I have no other 4 cyl. engines built. -
Allright. I got the body foiled. It took quite long time, but I'm pretty happy about the end result. Next I'm going to glue the glass parts, and then I must paint those little parts before body assembly. While the parts are drying, maybe I could continue '57 Chevy build, from Monogram. One more
