    im trying to avoid chrome and polish on the wheel im going for painted look on this build
  2. Lownslow
    stayed busy shaving the engine bay, finally ready to primer Drew up some plunge mold bubble windows for vans with matching frames those are the first of 35+ designs i came up with Completed a wheel for a future build its a floating spoke design dually wheel

    went deep down the rabbit hole cleaning this bay up but its ready for primer and paint

    i was almost at paint, but i got the new dremel and felt this was a good way to start it out. im partially shaving the fire wall today and calling the project done and move on to printing new valve covers and get the engine painted and done

    nice i dig the intake
  6. Lownslow
    spent 10 minutes shaving the hoses on the passenger side and the SS vent is gone
  7. Lownslow
    i told myself to avoid massive amounts of cutting but shaving isnt cutting

    thanks, its still a kit engine but amazing what some dressing does

    cleaned the engine bay on my 67 by moving the alternator and switching it with a kit version of the front plate electric pump combo and then i made standalone moroso waterpumps

    my spraybooth is still under construction but i decided to clean the engine bay up while i wait on stuff, i basically made a kit like setup with a electric pump and decided to relocate the alternator to a lower part on the engine im debating making a see through shroud since i accidentally opened up to much space

    I got a set of those from a caster in England he makes most of the euro wheels out

    Shapeways issue, i came across it a while back not a issue with new LCD resin

    Im still heavily invested in RC and 3D printing but getting back to building in 2021 wish some low skill builds. All the custom pieces are 3D printed.

    Im not the least bit surprised it happened. They kept featuring the same builds show after show, ignored the younger lowriders and big wheel builders. Its also model builders fault for bringing the same builds show after show for years. MCM isnt far behind

    Actually everybody switched to the 3D engines hes gonna have to work hard to catch up
  17. Lownslow
    Theyre both eldogs it all depends because hes putting all the money up for it thats something that doesnt happen in the hobby often. The riviera will be pretty close to stock compared to the eldorado
  18. Lownslow
    More than likely they will be heavily modified since the owner of the burgundy one is willing to bankroll the entire project from drawing to casting
  19. Lownslow
    sometime in february the weather isnt cooperating for molding and casting
  20. Lownslow
    Bumpers are updated and the wheels are from a Saab9000. Most of my cars will have minor customization like trim delete and smoothed bumpers
  21. Lownslow
    It was stock but it wasnt doing well with the crowds i was targeting, this is more aimed at Youngtimers
  22. Lownslow
    Wont take much to make it stock but because of my main customer base the car will do better as a custom. minilites are easy to get im sticking with the 9000 3 spokes
  23. Lownslow
    Its gonna be almost a full kit Interior,glass,lenses,modernized late model 900 wheels and a simple pan chassis for cost reasons, being its my first im going to keep them curbside after that possibly do roller style casts. The cars will be aesthetically updated since factory isnt something i care much for. If this sells well the next build will be a 87/88 B2200 Mazda Truck and following that a Volkswagon SP2 thats more or less going to be designed to fit the Tamiya VW bug and the third release if all goes well a 80s Eldorado convertible/Riviera convertible(maybe).
  24. Lownslow
    i designed them
  25. Lownslow
