    So good to have more kits of Australian cars being released.

    My apologies Bill. It's been a minute, so I thought you might have some progress updates/test prints or found another subject you are rendering.

    Found some cool looking wheels and printed a set for a stalled build. Hopefully the new wheels will get me motivated to finish it.

    Thanks, look forward to seeing your HQ build. Pretty versatile subject that can be any style and it will still look cool. A time less design. 1990 to mid 2000's are my favorite era of Aussie Street Machine's. Yeah no worries, will definitely have to do another group build Street Machine style sometime in the future. Cheers Bob, had to shoe horn the power plant.

    Quick mock up checking how the engine looks.

    Couple Jimmy Flintstone 08 TA Firebird's. Pretty good turn around times considering the time of year.

    Fitted some Pegasus #1309 D style wire wheels, will need to lower it a bit I think.

    Thanks Bob, here's one for ya. Current build im working on at the moment. Doing a buddy build on Instagram with a couple mates. The idea is to build a DDA kit inspired by a car you would see in the Australian magazine Street Machine. The inspiration for my build is the cover car from May 2006.

    Very happy to have one of these so I can do a build inspired by the movie car from Training Day.

    Thanks Bob for always taking the time to comment, appreciate the kind words. Hey Steve, been awhile. Glad to know you liking my current builds. Aussie kits are worth the purchase, something different and enjoyable to build.

    Something different. Started with this kit Fitted some Pegasus wire wheels, lowered the stance. Seats are from my parts stash. Added some 3D printed parts,Ignition coil, Chain steering wheel, air tank and compressor's, Used a The Parts Box pre drilled distributor. Other than that basically an out of the box build. Painted with The Scale Modellers Supply Lava colour shift. Interior paint is Vallejo Mech Sand Yellow. Applied Alclad chrome to the bumpers, grill, wipers, side mirrors, door handles, rear vision mirror, exhaust, compressors and air tank. Applied Zurc Zuper Chrome to the chain steering wheel. Engine painted with The Scale Modellers Supply HK Rocket Red BMF applied to window trim, front indicators/turn signals and tail light surrounds. Have seen a few people dislike and complain about the DDA Collectibles plastic kits diecast origins, personally I really like the modular assembly system. Makes it very easy to paint, detail and build. And whats not to like, it a plastic kit of an Australian Car ?
