Mooneyzs

I personally dont see monokote working that well for pin striping or decals. My dad has flown R/C planes before I was born and I started flying them when I was in my teens with my dad. I have built a few planes with my dad and have had the oppprtunity to use monokote and ultracoat (which is another brand of covering material) the monokote has an adhesive on one side of the material that is activated by heat. It is applied by a heat iron as well as a heat gun. You basically would take the material and attach it to the leading edge of the wing using the heat iron. Then you would pull it tight and run the iron on the trailing edge. from here you would take a head gun and run it over the wing and with this process it actually shrinks the covering material and pulls it tight. sorry about the lengthy explaination. since monokote is activated by a heat iron and heat gun i personally dont see this as a good fit with plastic. I would be afraid that you could damage the plastic if you tried to apply with heat. You could try an experiment with the method you were thinking. i just am not sure how well it would work. I think you would be better off to use vinyl like vinyl stickers and you can stick that on and clear over it. I have done that on a build and it worked great for me. I had to build the clear up by painting multiple coats to basically bury the edge for when I color sanded you would not see the edge of the vinyl. hope that i have been able to help.

Rom... i am loving the mock up buddy. I love the whole shop idea but I have to admit, I am just like you when I got the speed shop I picked up I opened mine up and checked it out by putting the walls up. I bought mine to build as well. I can't wait to see what all you have in store for us with the shop. I know its gonna be killer!!

I had to go with Model on it. Its what my gut told me right of the bat. But I may be wrong...

Tyrone....Nice update on the rear end and coil overs.... Looking sweet man. Yeah that would be killer if they made a '68 in 1/16th scale. That Al Anabie camaro would be awesome.

Bart... Holy Smokes bud.... That front end of the Vette is just looking killer man. I really like how it has turned out. I know you are super excited to get to that 1/12 Scale mustang pro mod. Feel Free to send the Vette body my way after you get all of the body work done and I will squirt some paint on it. It will look great on my shelf .... But on a serious note if you decided to have this cast. I will be first in line to buy one.

Clay.... You continue to blow me away. Each update just gets better and better. Very Impressive work. Thank you for taking the time to share with all of us, How you are doing this. I am learning a lot from your build and taking lots of notes. Keep up the great work.

Rom... This block is looking killer bud!! The crank is totally awesome man. You have me wanting to see more man. Keep plugging along!!

Bill... This build is just simply Beautiful my Friend... Man everything you have done is so clean. The craftsmanship just blows me away. Keep up the killer work my friend.

How thin are you looking to go?

Brett... Really like what you are doing. i am digging wing #2 personally. looks like it flows the best personally. keep up the great work

Jim... you sure did one heck of s job on these and they look fantastic. I am thinking that I may just have to get a set of these from you lol. I can't wait to see how the rears will turn out. keep up your killer work.

Gabe... thank you man... you are totally right about that statement. i don't want to rush it at all but am anxious to get some paint on this engine Scott.... thank you sir. I am looking forward to adding some of your parts to this build once you get them done.

Hey Ted.... I am sorry to hear about the family things that are going on. Take care of that first, family is more important. This build will still be on the bench waiting. Looking forward to the awesome work that you are doing on this.

Rom... Thanks man.... I wish I could move a little faster on this but have been a little slow lately....lol Brad... thanks buddy. Bill.... I think you would give me a run for my money man. That rail you are building is outstanding. especially with all of the pieces you are turning yourself. I can't wait to get a lathe one of these days. Its on my wish list.... Mike.... thanks man.

Rom... tried sending you a PM and it told me you couldn't receive any more PM's at the moment...

Dalton... You looking for front, rears or both??

Oh my that is just crazy.... I bet that driver feels dumb... haha. he shouldn't of gotten on it until after he made the turn and the car was straight...lol

ah man this is just killer.... I really like the look you are going for. those wheels are a perfect fit!! Any Updates??

Awesome new parts Scott.... Keep them coming. Man I can't wait till these are made.

Bart I was assuming a Nitrous motor vs a Blown motor. I think I may have been wrong...lol

Brett... I am loving this body man. Killer work. I think this one has to be one of my favs you are doing. I think it looks perfect. you may be onto something by moving the forward part to meet it. I think it will look good. I know it will be a little more work but worth it to give you that exact look you are going for. Keep up the great work

Yes Ted... Any updates on this beauty?? looking forward to your next update.

Oh my gosh John... you keep pulling new tricks out of your hat man. I am totally digging the belt shroud. Looks amazing. Loving the fuel pump set up. I am going to need to build one here real soon for my funny car. Then there is the Blower... man just loving the detail. Seeing your work is just giving me motivation to get more of my engine done on my funny car. As usual... awesome work my friend!! Wonder what you have in store for us next

Holy Smokes Rom.... you have blown me away man. that crank is awesome!!! This is very impressive work. Very Very Nice. Keep the pics coming.

Jim those rims are sweet and look great. Glad to see you were able to do these. The little pockets look great.
