  1. That is very autentic looking funny car. Good work!
  2. All i can say is wow! Very good work! Vey nice details on the engine and it sits nicely between the framerails.
  3. Very nice old school look! I've been thinking building front engine dragster frame from brasstube.
  4. That's a good start. Test fit roll cage before painting and gluing! You have to do some modifications to them.
  5. Thanx guys for nice comments. I'm not sure, maybe i'll add missing door handles. But ohterwise it's ready. That paint wasn't very good, because after one coat of clear paint seperated off the body. Places where paint seperated were so small pieces that i fixed it whit Revell's enamel paint.
  6. This is built from Revell's kit. It's a quite good kit. Had a bit of problems but it's good, i think. Added some details, paint is from unknown manufacturer. Some decals on it and clear. Let me know, what you think...!
  7. Exellent work!!! Rust looks as always very very nice. I'm big fan of Edsels so i think it would be better without rust but i just think so... I have to build my version of gasser Edsel someday. You build these cars very fast and they are always more spectacular than former!
  8. Wow, that's awesome! What a paintjob! Engine looks very good. Was that kit good or bad? I have to buy it someday, this may be only model kit from '48 Chevy...?
  9. This is good. Looks like it raced on the fifties and now sixty years later someone found it in barn. Rust looks very real and those writings are good ones too.
  10. Yes, it looks real. Nicely done! But i don't like that engine, i mean it's too new. It doesn't fit very well to that old rusty look. But it's good anyway.
  11. That rust is looking very real as always. And the ragtop is looking very good too! You did flat tire very nicely.
  12. Very good and real looking Dodge. Those plug wires are going very nicely to spark plugs.
  13. W-409

    32 FORD P/U

    Absolutely exellent work! That pickup looks very good. That sedan on the trailer is very great too.
  14. Ooooh, that's so nice. Exellent work as always and awesome detail...!
  15. Looking very nice. I like Pro Mods because they are looking like cars but them are fast! Here in Europe, there is one Superbird Pro Mod. http://www.eurodragster.com/live/2009fhranitronationals/galleries/friday/images/_DSC0167.jpg BTW: That picture is taken in Alastaro Dragstrip, Finland. 2009.
  16. Real looking Chevy pickup. Love these old drag racers. This is just nice!
  17. Oh, that's nice! Awesome painjob and stance is lookin' great.
  18. That's nice... And painted with paintbrush... Where is that register plate from?
  19. Beautiful Olds Nice job specially the interior looks very nice.
  20. Rear tires are aftermarket stuff, made of resin. For soldering i use liquid gas to heat up the soldering paste (?).
  21. Slowly but surely... I made fillings for the muffler holes and put some bondo to them. I must only sand it.
  22. I started this about five months ago. My First idea was that i build a tubeframe to '56 Chevy. But then i got better idea. I had AMT's '63 Impala. The plan was to make a gasser from it, but chassis and interior were so bad that i started to think about building tubeframe to Impala. First i made a drawing and then i started building. The frame is made from brasstube. I welded them together. My dad helped me fitting tubes before welds and measure them. I did everything else myself. Engine will be Lamar Walden's and World Products new 609''. I must do the firewall because AMT kit doesn't include it. Tires will be Mickey Thompson Sportmans. They are street legal ones. This gonna be Pro Street. It fits nicely! Then i continued... I made front frame tubes from the same brasstube as the frame. I made engine front mounting plate from aluminium. Thanks for lookin'
  23. The interior is ready! I added tachometers cable and foam extinguisher. If i notice that something is missing, i'll add it. It will continue... ...Hopefully
  24. Yeah, Black Widows didn't have that passenger seat back but i think that it's ugly if there isn't it. So it's there and i don't take it off.
  25. After a little break i continued the project. Now interior is almost ready it needs only steering wheel and all little details. Seat decals fit perfectly but door panel decals were very hard ones... First time ever i used Scale Dreams seat belt- material with Model Car Garage's photoetched buckles. Plug wires are now installed to distributor.
