  1. Donk? j/k ive been looking for this car long before that just gonna keep it in the box for a while
  2. hes off to a good start
  3. thats true its not going anywhere else but the shelf
  4. ill be taking new pics nothign special under the hood just a turbo 4 and there not detail(ie i left the hoses off )
  5. as supposed to be box stock till i added the wheels and tints the wheels are R&D and the tints are decals. i left the wing off for a street look
  6. dont really need any the car had pegasus wheels before those
  7. simulated top,tinted windows,porche wheels nothing big. the window tint was decal printed with transparent black. they look wrinkled cause theyre still drying
  8. used liquid mask today better result than tape for me
  9. nothing fancy just a quick build the wheels are R&M
  10. did this with decal paper i sprayed candy orange over clear decal sheet then layed the decal behind the glass
  11. its easier to apply the glue to the foil then work from there also cheap dollar store foil is easier to work with
  12. "Only if you want it" named after a Eazy E tune
  13. brush it on then let it dry then use, i noticed first hand that it has a strong bond but if you dry brush it just right it has the same adhesion as bmf but you have to have a super fresh number 11 to get clean cuts. it burnishes well and has a little flex
  14. it screams sex on wheels
  15. thanks i did a 58 impala diecast with the same method heres the rest of the cadillac
  16. took a good 4 hours but it came out decent the tinfoil cost about 70 cents and its about as thick and flexible as bmf
  17. this was a toy so next to a 1/24 this car is 3 scales smaller give or take. only caprices i know about is the modelhaus 80s box impala/caprice and the 2 door coupe made by Twinn on layitlow
  18. off a revell 32 street rod its a old kit molded in yellow
  19. made from a old ertl toy the plastic proved to be a challenge to paint but i conquered it the look is something i used to see in my neighborhood none of these cars exist anymore because the gangbangers that drove them loved having demolition derbies with them
  20. update
  21. i learned not to strip them to bare metal i sand them down with 600 to level it out then lay the paint on them
  22. the body is a resin conversion from jimmy flintstone the wheels are from the bin with the tires painted to simulate the new generation vogue tire this is pretty much it its a slammer so i doesnt have brake or headlight detail next is a diecast 74 gremlin we owned one when i was 6 ours had seen better days but after the diecast was released i decided to build what ours wouldve looked like new. shaved the roof rack and rear window visor
