  1. Happy to help Les. Keep me in mind and I’ll let you know if I’ve got something for you. Perry
  2. Looks like a Lotus 7 type kit, perhaps a Panther? Perry
  3. Finished and delivered. On to the next one. Perry
  4. Thanks guys. I am a slow builder. But, I'm still building, so that's a plus. Perry
  5. Little more of an update. Got the MCG detail set and added the door locks, gas cap, fender letters and horses. Built an auto shifter. Also made the rocker trim from evergreen and foil covered. Used the Molotow pen for chrome. Getting there. Am going to see him Friday, so need to get it done to surprise him. Perry
  6. I have to say, Jeff is a great vendor. I got my hood, and he didn’t charge me. I really appreciate him doing that for me. I highly recommend him and Motor City Resin Casters. Jeff, thank you for the help. Perry
  7. Bob, I don't recall the timeline now, but it was a few months. I just recently contacted him to get another hood for the Mustang as I messed up the one that came with the kit. He responded right away and said he'd send one. Haven't gotten it yet, but will wait for it. That is top notch to me. Thanks, Perry
  8. Really pretty, clean. Like the boat tail Riviera in the background. Perry
  9. Nicely done. That would look cool in 1/16th scale too. Perry
  10. Slow progress. Some pics of the chassis. Painted, weathered a bit. I made straps for the gas tank from left over pe fret. Also making exhaust tips from aluminum tube. Perry
  11. Really pretty build. How did you get the chassis to have that grayish look? Really looks nice. Perry
  12. Slow progress. Deciding how to fill in gap between back seat and interior panel. Any suggestions? I'll be seeing the car this week and will take some pictures. I like the color of the exhaust header. It's appliance epoxy stainless steel. Perry
  13. Thanks. Yes, I have a complete Shelby GT-350, and a started fastback kit. The vent panels on the outside rear quarters are boogered up on the fastback. None for the Shelby. Perry
  14. Starting on a build to replicate my sons first car, a 67 Mustang coupe. Got it at 16, still has it. He’s 31 now. I got the Motor City Resins coupe trans kit. It looks great. Started on the wheels. They are drag mags from the 60’s. I got some wheels from member 68 short fleet, Jason. I drilled out the windows like my sons. Need to finish paint aluminum. I do need the side vents as the donor I’m using had them glue bombed in. Can’t retrieve them. One question, the resin kit includes interior panels, but the back parts lack detail. Any suggestions? I’ll try to keep up and post progress as I go. Perry
  15. Had great trades with Mike1017 and bismarck. Recommended traders, thank you for the trades, hope to do more with you both. Perry

  17. Thanks Tim. Tim was very understanding and I appreciate the opportunity to trade with him, he is a recommended trade partner. Hope we can trade again.Thanks again. Perry
  18. Count the tubes on the headers for a clue also. Perry
  19. It's that secret Aston Martin compact they've been talking about. Perry
  20. Take a look at Grand Prix Models online, from England. They may have some wheels and tires. Perry
  21. Had a great trade with Ralph Henderson. Thanks Ralph! Perry
  22. Great trade with AFX. Thanks. perry
  23. Thanks guys. Wish it was shinier, but it's an old pickup. Perry
  24. Finally finished this one. First pickup I've done. Fought me a bit. Had trouble with a clear coat. I use Krylon gloss lacquer and it crazed some for some reason. I've used it before and it worked great, and it dries hard and fast so you can sand and polish it. Pretty happy with it and I have another so I may do a custom. Cut some little pieces of basswood for lumber. Gotta haul something. Perry
