What kits had this air cleaner ??
Brutalform replied to Mr mopar's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
If I remember correctly, the Revell 68 Mustang has one very similar for the SCJ engine. -
Yea, that seller is high. Every thing that he/she sells is ridiculously over priced. I often wondered why that kit was never produced.

I just love your builds!! I especially like the color, the modern engine, and the fantastic detail work on the front grill. That kits grill isn’t the nicest as it comes, and you made it look very real. Very nice model.

CA and other things I'm clueless about
Brutalform replied to SCRWDRVR's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I’ve never used CA glue for any PE parts, as of yet. I’ve found that the Tamiya acrylic clear, in the little jars, works perfectly for me whenever I’m working with PE parts. -
My Hobby Room
Brutalform replied to THarrison351's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
That’s quite an investment there. I like it. -
Superb work! Hard to tell this interior is a much smaller scale than the real thing, with all the amazing detail. You really do have to look twice.

Tamiya panel line accent
Brutalform replied to ksnow's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Never used the Tamiya Accent over enamel or lacquer, but always under it with no problems. After scribing door and trunk lines, I add it to the deepened lines, right to the bare plastic. After it dries, excess is removed with Tamiya enamel thinner. Shouldn’t be a lot of cleanup as the Accent flows nicely into the grooves by capillary action. Sometimes a second or third application will get the lines really dark. Then I do all my priming and painting. The accent still will show through. These bodies have the Accent treatment. -
Beautiful Duster drag car.. You got the stance, wheels, paint, perfect. Nice job on this one.

This is an old Revell/Monogram RR I built quite a few years ago. This is going to be a rebuild, but with a Hemi this time around. I plan on disassembly tomorrow, then into the purple pond it goes. Sure beats buying another kit, as the prices are going up on these. I plan on using wheels, tires, and Carter carbs, from Fireball. Still haven’t decided a donor engine yet. Possibly a Moebius Hemi, or a 1:24 Hemi from a Cuda Kit. Hope I can get the old paint off.

Hemi in 1:24 scale.
Brutalform replied to Brutalform's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Isn’t the PCV valve on the drivers side on the 70 hemi RR? -
Hemi in 1:24 scale.
Brutalform replied to Brutalform's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Thanks John. That’s one thing I do have is many fantastic carbs from Fireball. I have Hemi, max wedge, and various other Holley carbs. Im just gonna build the best Hemi I can with the parts I already have. I’ll strip the covers and go with the black look. All I might have to buy is decals for the air cleaner. -
Hemi in 1:24 scale.
Brutalform replied to Brutalform's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Thanks Guido, and Bill. Good idea on measuring the valve cover. I suppose the engine being slightly off would not be a big deal, as compared to tires, and wheels, Good advice. -
I’ve been away from the bench for a while, but plan on getting some of my WIP projects done real soon. Been busy with house things. I was wondering if there is a decent Hemi offered in 1:24 scale? Just pondering a 1970 Hemi Roadrunner in the near future. I have a few in 1:25 scale, and even a few extra Moebius Hemi engines lying around, but all are 1:25. Any help as always much appreciated.

Organizing Evergreen strip stock. Super easy
Brutalform replied to LDO's topic in Tips, Tricks, and Tutorials
I just tack them up on a cork board, along with a lot of other parts, and things. I find it easier to just look up to see what I need as compared to digging through a drawer, or container. -
Front Suspension for Scratch Build Chassis
Brutalform replied to GeeDub's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Glenn, maybe look into the Revell 85-2046 Pro Sportsman 55 Chevy? The kit has a nice tubular drag race suspension set up, complete with the rack and pinion steering, large headers, and a bunch of other great parts. Or at the very least, download the instructions from the kit, and maybe that might give you a general idea on how to place all the styrene tubing/rod, whatever you choose to scratch build it with. -
Also, authorities found a body believed to be Naya Rivera from that lake in California.
