  1. I like these X-Frame Chevys. This one looks good, it's sometimes great to see one which is not a bubble top. In 1:1 bubbletops are better, but in scale that thing is different. Model looks good, paintjob is great and color fits well. I like the wheels and tires, engine is looking also great, detailing is simply amazing with this. Keep going, I'm enjoying of these, I have one glue bomb '62 Bel Air, I must take that one to my table, when I decide, what I'm going to build from it.
  2. Awesome Hot Rod. These are always very great to see. That engine looks nice, detailing is great. But that paintjob is simply terrific, color is also very nice. Wheels and tires are nice too... Nice Old School styled Hot Rod, it's true eye candy!
  3. Great job! That paint looks amazing, it's very smooth. Color fits nicely to this body too. Clean build, there are no any big mistakes, I like it. That engine is also great, so nice job that I hardly can believe that it is box stock... Amazing build !
  4. I'm moving bit forward with this one. I have worked with front suspension now. First I sawed lower a-arms off and some other things too. I did some test fitting, sawed more plastic off, sanding and removing material. Then I test fitted lower a- arms, and glued the cross member to them... Now it looks pretty good, needs some filling and sanding, but it fits quite good now. I also started making rear axle to fit correctly, but I have no pictures from it yet, I post that thing later. I painted the engine block by red and transmission by silver. With that front axle modifications, I used my '69 Corvette as a reference. I must continue this one soon, I haven't too much time to finish this one, about seven months time to finish it, it's going to be tough... My '69 Corvette front axle system, used for reference. And here you can see this '67 Corvette's frame, where the axle system would fit. It didn't fit so after some sawing it looked like this: Parts glued on their place. And engine and trans' painted.
  5. Also I've seen these, manufacturer was scaledreams or something like that, aftermarket... That's looking good, I have one set. "Will do 3-4 cars". I think, I can check the manufacturer tomorrow and post it here. That looks like a good stuff, it's thin and can be glued to the body quite easily, I think. But of course it is possible to make from masking tape etc. and it will look good. I must try my hand making those someday.
  6. Yeah, that's true that Race Hemis are aluminium or black, usually. I just like how the engine looks when it is orange, if it's fully aluminium or black, it looks like one mold piece, sometimes. I painted one Alcohol Funny Car's Hemi silver some time ago, that looks good too...
  7. Real nice Chevelle SS! I like how this car looks when it's original! That color looks amazing on it, and paintjob is nice too. Engine detailing looks good and wheels and tires are great! I like this one, one of your best builds.
  8. I've been thinking of modify this kit to '66 Bronco... And of course it would be Rock Crawler... Like that in the picture below. The project looks very interesting, keep it going. I'm watching this one surely! BTW, where you get those correct tires?
  9. I meant in that post that these valve covers aren't good looking for this style 426 Hemi... My enghlish isn't just so good so sometimes I write something what no one can understand or understands it wrongly...
  10. No one knows...? Please help, if you have an idea... Doesn't matter if you are not 100% sure about it, but give even your toughts to me, it's better to put one what looks quite the same than the original one than no decal. I prefer wrong decal which looks almost same than the original one, than no any decal in that spot.
  11. Ignition wires are now installed. They are looking pretty good, I think. They are made from Scale Dreams' wire. I must paint spark plug hats from those valve covers, and then these wires are done. I will add more details to this one, this is one of my dream kits, and this must look good when finished...
  12. That hood sure looks good! I like how you fixed it, I think that now when the hood is repainted, it's worth that extra job, you did... Engine looks very good too, detailing is great, and paintjob looks good as always. Chassis is nice also. i can't wait to see this one finished, this one is maybe one of your best builds so far... I must get building my '70 SuperBee as soon as possible...
  13. I'd love to see these live... That is looking amazing, decals are great and paintjob looks good. Color is also great.
  14. WOW, paintjob looks fantastic and that color choice with those decals is looking simly amazing. I like seeing Front Engine Dragsters on the workbench. This will sure look good, you are very talented builder, can't wait to see it done.
  15. Cool Chevelle Wagon!I like that matt black on it, and whitewall tires are just perfect choice. Those steelies are great, but I would like to see them red... That's not bad also. Great job with the Chevelle STW, keep these coming.
  16. Great! That Pickup with trailer is Finnish build, and it sure looks good. I have some pictures of it, if you need. That has been in Finnish Hot Hor Magazine called "V8 Magazine". Looks good start, I'll be watching this one surely!
  17. I haven't done anything to this for last couple of months... But now I drilled holes for the spark plug wires to valve covers... I think, I'm going to add spark plug wires pretty soon for this... Here is one picture about it.
  18. I'm building replica of this finnish DragRacer. I need help finding right sponsor decals for it. Actually, I must find out what these sponsor decals are! I'm building this car like it is in that picture above. But here is one, better picture where you can see those decals better, I have now pretty much of them but few are really tricky ones... They are marked with blue arrow. So can you tell me what are these so I can print them out and put to my model when it gets in that point... Here is the picture. This second picture is taken after the first one, but those sponsor decals are same in both pics...
  19. This is going to be really interesting build. NASCAR is "Number Two Motorsport", right after DragRacing... These oldies are always very nice and I like to watch these resin bodies being built. I must get that Hudson Hornet when it comes to Modelexpress and build it to NASCAR racer...
  20. It looks like real car in these outside pictures! Great job with the Mustang. That engine looks very good to me. Detailing is nice all over and paint looks good. Color is just perfect for this body. Wheels and tires are looking good too. I like it, keep these coming!
  21. Great looking Streetrod! I like that you are building great Old School HotRods one after one... These are looking great! This one has really nice engine, Buick Nailhead is one of my favorite Hot Rod engines. Interior is nice and that color looks very good too. I like the body, it's so low. Great looking build so far, I can't wait to see this one finished. Maybe I must continue my Hot Rod projects also...
  22. This one is looking good so far! I like the color on it and paintjob looks good. Engine is nice also. I like that interior work too. Your builds are always very nice and this Dart is one of my favorite Mopar cars... Of course Mopar can't beat Chevrolet and GM. Great build!
  23. Well, this is the only Wagon, I've built, so it's my favorite.
  24. Great. That convertible looks very realistic, paintjob is amazing and detailing looks good. I also like the interior very much. That Gasser version is nice too, only bad thing is that it's matt colored, not gloss I mean. But engine looks good and stance is perfect. It's nice to see these being built.
  25. My best finished engine bay is this one, '60 Impala 348" BBC. If I look my projects, these engines are looking pretty good. First one is '65 Stepside 283" SBC. Also '57 Black Widow's engine is pretty good... And the last one is Burnout Bird Pontiac FC.
