  3. i dont care how shiny it is its a improvement over my old paintjobs i was lucky to get a glossy paintjob every few cars.
  4. yeah the pegasus 1109s are 2 piece wheels so if you take out the spokes most amt wheels slide in with no problem and you get a nice reverse wheel.
  5. did you have to narrow the hood or the front clip?

    i didnt actually use sharpie markers thats testors gloss black thinned down to ink consistency
  13. yeah this game got me pretty upset the lack of brake upgrades put it in the shelf and this whole stupid premium/standard car business shouldve been left off
  14. i had a reaction to the old paint its less holiday themed. painted the interior lighter color too

  16. nipping at the deuce while the paint is still drying, stupid testors and i used fast laquer to dry it faster
  17. stupid question how would they fix that engine?
  18. i made the tires i posted a tutorial in the tips and tricks the wheels are kit stock theyre nice looking steelies
  19. was messing around with this knife i bought but never used and figured its gotta be good for something so when i decided to do the fat whites on the roadster i found that this knife was really good for cutting circles. you can find them in drafting stores or the knife aisle in hobby lobby you need all this take the template and line it up to the size you think will look the best lay some tape down and cut the circle the blade follows the edge perfectly without catching lay the large piece of tape over the tire like this mix up your paint airbrush your tire and youre done before after if you wanna make a white wall cut another circle a size down and lay it between the big circle.
  20. since im not working i dont have much to look forward to for the day and rather than sit at the computer or the TV i do this lol. rat was a option but i wanted to make it as my definition of hot rod when i hear the word. got some paint on it, only color i had on my mind came in this bottle
  21. ill break this thread if i post what i built this year
