  1. As a person that used to have a '70, a '71 and a '72 all Nova Super Sports, I can say that this is definately a homerun! That grille is fantastic and I would really like to know your secret....but every one of your interiors is nothing short of amazing!!! They just look sooooo real!
  2. I like the wheels. This is going to be sharp!
  3. I picked up the rims, tires and the spider caps from the Modelhaus.
  4. My God, that thing is gorgeous!! What a beauty!! I have to get this kit.
  5. I agree. If it's something obvious, I'd have to deal with it. If it's that hard to see, paint it, stick it on there and move along!
  6. Nice job with the wood!!
  7. Couple more....
  8. I finished this one quite a while ago and I thought I had shared this one already but I guess I didn't. I was never really happy with the original set of pictures I had taken of this car and today I had an opportunity to take some better outside shots 'cause it finally stopped raining! This one is special to me. My uncle is the reason I build model cars. When I was a kid, we would sit and build models together. He built this very car and I remember looking at it sitting on his shelf. I always thought it was such a slick looking car. Fast forward about 20 years. I went over to my uncle's house to visit and he hands me a box of busted-up models to use for parts or projects and low-and-behold, that maroon Tudor Sedan I admired as a kid was in there. The years were hard on her. I was so excited! I immediately stripped it down and carefully took it apart. I bought a '34 Coupe for a donor kit to replace the parts that were broken. I decided to build it as a 50's style traditional rod. It received several custom touches and aftermarket parts. I painted it Krylon "Sparkling Canyon" in a suede finish. I love the way it turned out. It's so cool to have this one in my collection where I can admire it on my own shelf now.
  9. Throw me down for a "WOW" too! Very nice!!
  10. Really though, congratulations!!
  11. VERY nice!!
  12. Great looking build! Welcome! And uhh.....where've ya been?
  13. What a nice job!! Beautiful! Can't wait to see it finished!
  14. It was originally yellow. So this is (IMO) is a major improvement!!
  15. Wow, very nice!!
  16. Thanks for sharing. Looks like fun!
  17. I like the stance and I dig the skirts. It's looking cool so far
  18. HAMB build-off? When? Where? I missed it?
  19. It's funny. This thread pushed me into having this conversation with my wife last night. She told me that she wants to hold onto my built-ups (for herself) and I told her that I want my boys to have my unbuilt kits (as they're young and very much into building models) but I want her to wait until they're old enough to not only appreciate that they're getting "dad's collection" but also that their skills will be good enough that they wont end up regretting building any of them too early and having glue bombs.
  20. I'm looking forward to watching this one come together!
  21. I usually don't overly enjoy these show rods if they're modified or done differently than the original (I know, I'm weird that way) but I gotta say...I LOVE this one!! What a beautiful color and I swear they shoulda done the original just like this. What a great idea. Very nicely done!!!
  22. OOOoooo, I really like this!!
  23. Wow! What a compliment! Thank you so much. I guess I can't quit on this thing now!! I have to work this weekend so I wont get as much done as I'd like but I'm going to start work on the grille and rear bumper/tail lights next. I'm waiting for good weather to start throwin' down some color. Not to mention.....it's fun to torture all of my followers!
