This is moving along very well indeed..... I like where you are going here.....these old kits are cool and you are really this one justice with your fine work!!!!

That is a cool truck you are using for reference and it looks like you have a good start on the model as well... Please keep us posted.... I like this kit and I am interested in seeing how it looks when completed.....

That is one gorgeous paint job..... just really nice work here!!

Nice work here..... you captured the barn find look really well.... Regards Bill (Duntov)

This is nice and a favorite snap kit of mine.... Three and counting finished and three more on the shelf un-opened. You did a great job here!!!

HI: I would go back to the old AMT vintage series kits..... There are still a ton of them out there and if you try for a reissue you can keep the price pretty low. My first pick would be the old AMT 40 Ford Coupe..... it is a very simple build but has lots of speed parts to customize it...(2 engines....slicks, a blower etc etc) It is an older vintage subject and with a bit of work builds up very nicely..... even the veterans on this board have turned out great builds but it still is good for the novice.... The downside is probably going to be the flash on most of the reissues..... it may be significant but nothing that you can't overcome..... You may have to search the internet to find one..... you don't need to get a vintage trophy series kit from 1960 as those are serious collectors items and will be expensive... Try Ebay and you will literally see tons and tons of these kits ranging from $10-$12 to way over $30..... stay in the $10-$12 range....there are just too many versions out there to justify some of the stupid crazy prices.... the first three I saw were $11....$12....and $14 respectively... The 40 Ford panel was just re-released by Round-2 and it is nice as well but I prefer the Coupe....there was also a sedan as well.... Another good bet is the Monogram 37 Ford street rod.... again good detail parts, simple construction and an older vintage subject.....best thing here is it is still very readily available at Hobby Town, Hobby Lobby etc.... $16 at my local Hobby Town.... same for the 32 roadster.... Good luck with this!!! Regards Bill (Duntov)

Virgil: This is some very nice work.... I think Nato Black and several of the other Tamiya military colors are overlooked and that is really too bad.....IJN green is another great one for a 1950's light green color and matches a lot of stock colors for the period.... I am also going to try Nato Green for a 32 highboy with a Nato Black chassis.....Nato Black is still one of my favorites.... Regards Bill (Duntov)

Very well done.... it always good to see some nice work in another scale.... going this small sharpens your 1:25th scale skills too!!! Nice work on a classic kit!!

This is one of my all time favorite kits... and I agree with Ron.... you just build it again and again.... I have three finished and four still in the box.... You did a really nice job here.... thanks for sharing!!!

Nice work on the Camaros....

Nice work...

Nice weathering job here....

This is a neat thread about a very favorite car.... saw the real one as I grew up in Portland and knew Bob.... Unfortunately, he passed away many years ago.... This is probably one kit that will be re-built... or is it re-attempted the most of any!!! One good thing about the newest re-issue is the re-tooled hood.... the previous one had a really shoddy resin piece that was hardly useable... One bad thing..... Bob's picture is no longer on the box......
