  1. Coolmproject.. Really a beuatiful design. Definitely following this project.
  2. Nice work. Great color and nice work on the engine.
  3. The part you are trying to glue keeps falling of. You finally get it glued and its crooked. Now dynamite and a crow bar won't move it. Its also very likely a part that isisn't easy to replace.
  4. Great solution for the seats. Keep up the good work.
  5. Very nice work. At this rate you should have this finished for the nnl.
  6. Try to superglue a part and it will stick to anyplace than where you want it. You spends hours scratchbuilding a part, and put it in a safe place to use it but when you look for it it hss disappeared.You make anothrr part and the first one mysteriouly reappers.
  7. Nice job on the paint. Rollbar looks good. Is the rod you are using for the rollbar styrene? What was the vendors name it came from?
  8. Cool project. Wonder if he has finished. Unfortunately he has been on the site since June of last year,
  9. Yes its still all white glue. They sell a sampler pack of small sizes of each. I've gotten mine at walmart but I'm sure that you can also get it a micheals or other craft stores.
  10. Coming together nicely. Nice recovery from interior problem. One suggestion for kitbash project is o uses Ailenes tacky glue the is a quick set version. Takes a little time to dry but you can do mock ups and check the fit on all parts. A little warm water will help soften it up so the pieces can be gaken apart and painted. Definitely helps keeps issues from creepjng into the biilds.
  11. Very nice work on the engine. Everything is done nicely. Looking forward to seeing this finished.
  12. Absolutely beautiful work. Will be a real beauty when its finished.
  13. Cool project. Definitely way outside the box.
  14. Love it. Great redisgn. This style of modeling is always fun. Glad you got it finished.
  15. Yeah but you could use thin plastic to cover the gaps.
  16. Cool don't think I've ever seen a pickup gasser before other than a Wiilys. Definitely will be watching.
  17. Its a great event. If you are planning to go the next event is planned for 2017. I started going for the 6th one and only miseed two of the events one which was last year. Definitely something every modeler shoukd expierence at least once. I recentky noticedcthat Mark has stated that there are plans to do no more thah 5 more events. If you go to the website you can read the reasojing behind that statement and also speaks about the possibility that it could be continued if a suitable group could be found to continue.
  18. Nice work. How much of a gap is there? If its not too bad you may be able to take saome off tge front part of the interior so it will fit properly.
  19. I sent him a message yesterday with no problem. Maybe his mailbox is full.
  20. I vote for the stacks. I think they fit the character of the car.
  21. The importance of primer is to check for flaws before the fihal paint. Some things won't show until you put paint on. It is much better to find a fkaw in primer than in the final color. The second thing is to establish a good process and stick to it. I find that not following my process cuases issues.
  22. RPM refers to the frequency of the rotation and will be the same for all points regardless of the radius of the point Angular velocity is calculated from the rpm and radius Therefore if one point is 3 inchs from center and another is 6 inchs the 6 inch point has to travel twice as fast So you are right about the speed being different for the two points
  23. Love it. Great project. Any ideas for the color?
