W-409

I really know nothing from turbos, but these ones, I've seen, there have been more piping and other stuff, like cooler... Really not a turbo expert, it's too modern for me. But those builds are nice, doesn't matter if there is a correct system or not.

Nice project, like these Old School Dragsters. That engine looks very good and rear wheels and tires are perfect, they fit nicely to this. Your other projects are looking good too, so can't wait to see this finished. Keep This one going.

These are the best! Whitewalls aren't bad anyways, but these are better. Those three spokes are better than those other ugly wheels, but they aren't matching with that engine so nicely. Anyways, I say that put these!

Nice models you have there! That Tijuana Taxi looks very good to me. It's nicely done and those slicks are looking very realistic. Good job with it. '60 Chevy looks very good too, I'm a great fan of those. That paintjob on it looks good to me. That's very good looking all the way. Engine picture would be nice. It's so sad that those Tom Daniel's '60 Chevy Wagon kits are bit bad quality, otherwise I could have them all... Now I have '60 Nomad resin body... Back to topic, that last one, '75 Nova (?) looks very good to me too, but there is that Twin turbo system under the hood.... I think that Twin Turbo engine needs bit more piping, to the cooler etc... But they are nicely done, all of them. I can't wait to see more of your builds!

When I first time saw this thread, I was thinking that if I would build that, it will never be finished... So much work it needs before primer. But now it looks very very good to me, and I can't wait to see, how this one turns out. Really like the look now. Riviera is one of my favorite, Buick has made. Nice job with it do far, keep it coming...

Those whitewalls are looking millions of times better than those big ugly wheels... But I would use high profile and wide tires for the back, without whitewall. 5 spoke wheels there, like Gragar on American Racing wheels. But anyways, I like the project. Engine looks very good, detailing is very nice. Here are nice wheel and tire combo:http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_i_AovfzNXgQ/TSqQrUidBII/AAAAAAABaz4/nD77AiwLrVA/s1600/DSC_0058.JPG

Very nice Nova, like it a lot. That paintjob looks very good and I like the Yenko stripe on it. The engine detailing is perfect as always, there is everything, I can ever think about. Very nice work with it, I can't wait to see more of your builds, love these!

Nice Camino! This is one of my favourite Camino models, and your build looks amazing. Paintjob is very beautiful and nice grille on the front! I like those taillights too and interior is very nicely done. Everything is done nicely, this is maybe the best El Camino, i have seen built...

Oh yes, it's AMAZING! Paintjob is simply stunning! That shine is just perfect and those flames are looking just perfect on it. Wheelsand tires are nice and they fit just perfectly to this one. I like it, I can't say more, it's just amazing. :)

That Oldsmobile chassis seems to fit nicely to this one! Good idea of using that. This Chevelle kit is something, I have never built, but if it's bad, Monogram's kit would be better basis for the build. But it's nice to see that these AMT kits are being built. Nice job with it so far, I'll be watching.

I really like this one! It looks like ready to race. Paintjob is cool and those decals are very nicely in place. Nice finishing on the body too. This is great car, I mean that this kind of race cars are interesting to watch. Even tough I'm not a super fan of these but this one is perfect.

Wild Pontiac! Nicely done modifications with the body, and that chopped top looks amazing with this car. I like it very much, nice work! Paintjob is amazing, so shiny and smooth. I can't understand, how it is possible to paint that good paintjob. Awesome job with it.

This is turning out great! I like the job you have done with the modifications. Frontend looks good and rear also. It looks like new Firebird, that would be cool to see 2011 Pontiac Firebird even tough I'm not a fan of new Retro Muscle Cars... Why it is 2012, are you thinking about gettin' it ready in that year? And yes, ugly big wheels would fit. Like straight from Camaro kit?

You mean this kind of cleaner? I just painted the filter part with white. Best choice of making realistic cleaner is maybe to sand material off from that filter part so you can glue somekind of mesh there and after that, metal plate to under mesh, then it looks realistic. Or buy aftermarket. Maybe you understand nothing, what I said, but I tried to help anyways. This kind of air cleaner?

I've used Trumpeter's panel scriber (what ever is the name...) and it works fine. Don't push too hard, many times just pull it without hard pushing, otherwise scriber comes out of the panel line and then you need putty... That's very easy. But hinges aren't really easy to build. I have used MIG wire and some pipe, where the MIG wire goes. Don't glue MIG wire, or any other wire to that pipe, otherwise the door isn't opening. I think, the best tip for hinging them is a good picture. This may help?

Real nice Nova! I like it. That color is just perfect and I like the paintjob too. Vinyl top is something too rare on the scale big pluspoint on that. I like the 6 cylinder engine on it, this is basic Nova. Nice weathering on it, chassis looks very realistic as the engine. I'm building the same kit, but it'll be E/Stock Drag Racer. Nice work with this.

That Chopper looks very good so far. Like the engine of it. I have the same kit too, and it needs lots of modifications to look right to me (that means old school). Your Chopper is very interesting project, I'll be watching it. Nice work chopping the Fords also, but those wheels are awful. Can't wait to see more.

I have been watching these from Google... Colonial Photo & Hobby and JR Hobby are places, where I'll go, if I can. The shop near Daytona is maybe one place too, not sure yet, if I have any time for it... Rest of these are little too far. Hope I find some interesting kits, and quite cheap also. Thank you for the answers, if theree is still more, you can tell me...

How is this coming along.? One of the most interesting builds on the forum... Love the work, you have done with it, can't really wait to see more. BTW, Fast Freddy is burning rubber in my avatar also.

Oh, thank you for the comments, guys! Now the progress is little slow, because I need to get some matt black spray paint to my hands. Then I can paint interior carpet and flock it. Needs to paint the chassis part also. But I think, I get the paint pretty soon. Maybe. Thank you for the feedback.

Amazing job you did on this! I like the stance and those wheels and tires are just perfect choice to this one. Engine detailing is stunning, and color looks very good to me. Paintjob is really nice too. How you did the hood scoop? I'm building one of these too, and it will be original, a friend to my '65 Malibu sedan, silver with red interior. Perfect combo. But yours is looking very good to me.

Thank you, both! Nostalgic, old school, no bling bling, gassers, lead sleds, etc... Really don't like pro touring cars or something, it's great that we still have people who are building traditional American Cars. That's great! I'm trying to make this one as nice as I can, that means that paintjob must be good and of course, lots of wiring and plumbing. Thanks for the feedback!

Nice work with it so far! I like how you did cut the top off. You are into Convertibles? They are nice, I have to say and I like '70 Cuda a lot, it's thousands of times better than the '71. Very nice and interesting project you have there, I'm watching!

That's a nice start! That stance is nice, I hope that you will keep it that low. Wheels and tires are looking good too, and I like that Sedan body. I have one thing, which is wrong, Too much head clearence! Chop the top! It looks much better when the top is lower. Now it's too high. Nice project anyways, I'll be watching for sure!

Hello. This is something, I have been working on currently. This is Revell Hot Rod series kit. It looks pretty good, opening doors, which fit well right now, but lets have a see how they fit after some parts glued... This kit has nice options, Pontiac Super Duty engine with Blower or Thunderbird engine. Also custom grille and lights etc are included in the kit. I really like this kit. Chrome plating is not the best one, I have seen, but enough for me. I started from the engine, as usual. Because this kit is molded to blue, engine needed three coats of red, painted with brush of course. I really don't like to put spray gun ready for paint with that small piece. Manifold and some other parts by silver and of course I use that 421 engine with the blower. Now today I installed the spark plug wires, and they are made from Detail Master's wire. It looks pretty good. Still need to do somekind of top on the distributor. And of course lots of more normal work and detailing too. This kit has pretty good rear tires, and BBS style wheels. Those rear tires are pretty good, only they are glued from two pieces. Now I must try to sand that seam off from them. Front tires are too wide for my idea. They are good for some other car, for rear tires... I started looking for somekind of front wheels, and I found better ones so far from Monogram's box. They are "Good Year Steel Belted Radial" tires, which you can see in many of Monogram kits. They just need bigger size wheel than the rear tires, that is the thing which is little mattering, I don't know, maybe I must find better ones... Frame is painted by gloss black and interior carpet is matt black. The cab is also sanded and ready for primering, maybe. It was pretty big thing to sand it and frame needed some putty, but anyhow, now the frame is painted and body looks like ready for primering. Here you can see the rest of pictures, like what's in the box:http://s486.photobucket.com/albums/rr225/nigot58/56%20Ford%20Pick%20Up/
