  1. Nice idea to turn it to station wagon! That panel version is not so nice one, I'm building it but it's coming along very slowly... Those wheels don't fit to my eye, but that doesn't matter too much... Engine swap is a good idea also, I sold that new Corvette Engine first, when I got that kit. Great project.
  2. Yes, that looks very good so far! Like the color, it's just perfect to this. Engine detailing is very nice and that stance looks very good right now. Can't wait to see the finished product. It's also nice to see, that someone builds nostalgic styled Hot Rods, customs and so on. It's very great... Keep these coming!
  3. It would be nice to build one of these, but maybe the best basis for this would be AMT's NASCAR Pickup. That is quite close and of course there is lots of thing to build again, but that would be the best choice, resin kits are so expensive that...
  4. That stance is perfect! Color is great and paintjob looks very smooth. Nice job with it. Engine detailing looks very good also, this is the style, I build my '29 Ford Pickup, when I get tires for it... But yours looks very good to me, keep on building!
  5. Here is a little update to you guys! I have sanded that interior "floor" now. It's pretty good, I think, next step is to make those door panels better, the work with them has begun, but maybe tomorrow I'll get something to show from them... I have been thinking of flocking that carpet but I'm not sure yet... Rear axle isn't so simple thing. I borrowed AMT's AMT Matador rear axle and some plasticine to copy two rear axles. Other one is for Javelin. I pushed those rear axle halves to that plasticine and put that to freezer for 15 minutes. When I took it away from there, I took those axle halves away from plasticine and with bondo, I filled those axle molds. In the morning, I took that bondo away from that plasticine and then I took those copied rear axle halves away from the putty "sheet". Glued them together with Araldit and then some bondo and sanding, now it needs some more bondo and sanding... Comments are welcome.
  6. "Jack Daniel's Tennessee Whiskey"! That paintjob looks awesome, I can't say more and that driver is just perfect to the cab... Can't wait to see this one finished, it's just so good looking now already. Must get one of these and build it...
  7. Great looking Mustang! Engine looks good too and that is just perfect style for Mustang. I'm watching this one.
  8. Very nice GTO. But I have a good "trick" to get better pictures. Use background. White is the best, but if the model is white, then use black one. When there is background which is only one color, it's easier to get focused pictures. Also use Super Macro. It's marked with a small flower to some place. That's very good option BUT. You must get something, where you can shore up the camera. For example model box is very good for it. That's the way, I get good pictures, so that would be good to you too. And of course remember good light, then pictures are great!
  9. Ooh, nice and clean. As always! Paintjob is just perfect and that foiling work looks very good... Engine is very nicely detailed, as always. Nice job on it, can't find any mistakes. This kit is good, worth buying and building and you have built it very nicely.
  10. That's cool. Like it, that color is perfect and those tires are just great to this one. That engine is great looking too, now I must get 409" BBC that I use for '32 Ford... Must get it. Yours looks very nice anyways, clean build without any mistakes.
  11. That's so massive that it needs twin turbo engine...
  12. '55 Chevy Coupe, that would be nice protoype car with steelies and hubcaps. But that's very great lead sled, don't know am I liking it or am I thinking that it's bad, but cool it is for sure! Nice conversion, that is great idea, something different, maybe I have seen too much "normal" '55 Chevy Bel Airs...
  13. I'm not into these, but this will be interesting! Your talents are great so I'm looking this one for sure.
  14. Must say: Perfect. H-Body, great start for drag car... This one is very nice as I said. How much do you have this older stuff? Keep them coming...
  15. Wow, perfect! Impala is one of my favorite subjects and this one is very very nice! Paintjob looks very good on it and I like that foiling, it looks very nice, just like in 1:1! Engne detailing is very nice also, that 396'' Big Block is perfect to this one. It's very clean build all the way! Is this the new Revell "StreetBurner" kit? Very nice!
  16. Nice project going, that Dodge Pickup is so ugly that it is pefect basis for big conversion. Just like this project. Very nice, I'm watching this one for sure. Where are those tires and wheels from...?
  17. WOW, that looks very good!!! Very nice paintjob on it and decals are nice also. Today, I'm going to get Fairy Power Spray, then I'll try to strip the paint off from the Corvette. Now I think, I'm going to start building from other parts...
  18. Oh, that's great!!! Impala '60 is very nice, but I see too rarely these built to drag cars! Yours is looking very very good, that paintjob is very good and it's so clean build all the way... Engine looks very good too, but I can see one mistake, but that's manufacturer's mistake, that engine is too back. I mean, in real thing, that engine is not that far in the back. This is how it is in 1:1... That's bad thing, I'm building also '60 Impala and that is bad thing with it but I fix it to resin kit. This is very nice all the way, thank you very much for sharing it. BTW: Where are those decals from? Haven't seen those before but as freak of '60 Impala, maybe I should build it too with those decals...
  19. Not so freakin' huge anymore !
  20. Neil, that looks awesome! So great looking Gasser. That detailing is very good. How that car is got to that position. I mean how those front tires stay off the ground? Awesome job with it, it's just so realistic Hot Rod, thank you for sharing it!

    1970 AMX

    I'm impressed!!! That's awesome model, paintjob is perfect and black and orange combo looks awesome. This is so nice that I can't say anything more, im speechless... Awesome AMX!!!
  22. OUTSTANDING!!! That idea of this build is perfect, paintjob looks very cool and that grille work is awesome. Engine detailing looks super, there are not any mistakes. '58 Impala steering wheel looks very good on it and interior work all the way is very good. Beautiful Chevy...
  23. Umm, that scoop gives great streetRace look! Color is perfect and paintjob looks very cool! Black hood looks very good on it and of course that BumbleB stripe looks good! Sponsor decals are nice too. Engine looks very good of course and detailing is perfect. NOS systems in the backseat place, nice!
  24. Oh, that's very good looking! Like that color very much, and paintjob looks very great also. Good job with it. Engine detailing is very nice and it's great to hear that you have air cleaner for it, because those carburetors are always undetailed. I must make '61 Impala carb. better right now... But anyways your Roadrunner looks very good, it's just so clean build, can't find any mistakes from it!
  25. DanielG: How those rear tires are wrong scale? I'm not sure that are they from this kit or not, but they fit fine. Those wheels fit also perfectly to them, and that's why I think that they are from this kit. But I can be wrong also. Sport Suburban: Thank you for the info, I must build that interior right now, before I paint the body and then I'll do an other mock up. I was thinking about doing some modifications to it, but I thought that it would be better to look here first and it was really good thing! Thank you for the comments, interior work is the next step to make this Cobra ready, I'm trying to finish this one in 2010, it would be very nice. That would be "quick build" from me, usually my builds are taking about an year...
