Welcome Back!!!!!

OK, I spent time using various references and added various markings to the Dana 60 rear end. Here I have decoded them. 403-Car Number 831-The day the rearend was completed, August 31 "B"- The builder, Brandon Orange Line- Means the car has a manual transmission Three white lines- Means the diff. fluid was checked Now, on the the pics, Enjoy!

Ok, Here is a long needed update. As you can see here, my partner in crime has decided to take a nap. My parts from JB Hobbies arrived a few weeks ago and I was able to complete the engine. I got the chassis up on its Rallye wheels Hold on for the next post.....

OK, I left for a few days, I come back, Romell's now a mod (Congrats, you free lathe is in the mail), Advanced rules are in place (That's fine, I'll live), and did I mention congrats Romell? Anywho, I hope the great builds continue and the forum does not get shut down. And now back to our regularly scheduled programming, already in progress.

Ohhhhhh! I know! Slixx Decals! You may send my free Chi-town-hustler kit to my addy.

So, I can't have 'em?

Ahhh, that '71 RR and GTX would be nice to have.

I know you have alot on your mind right now about Irene and I hope you make it through. I was just seeing if there was anything done with the build.

Rommel your killing me!

Is anybody going?

Bump

OMGNAGL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I will re-run the plug wires above the headers. I am HOPING MY PARTS FROM JB HOBBIES GET HERE VERY SOON!!! Sry, just had to get that out of my system. And now back to our reguraly scheduled program, already in progress.

I will be getting some Keith Marks decals for this soon. I am having to give up my school snacks to save the dollars for decals.

It may not be correct, but they run right below the headers.

OK, I put the body in the Purple Pond this morning on the way to school. I finished the interior yesterday. I installed some seatbelts made from styrene and medical tape. I am stuck with this choice. Should I go with the kit's master cylinder or the more detailed one from the Revell '68 Charger? Left is the 'bird's, right is the Charger's. I completed the chassis. Enjoy!

Nice 'bird! (Shocks, write that down Brandon.)

Agreed

It is Drag'n'Wagon. He combined Super Bee, Little Red Wagon, and fantasy together! Dynamite!

This is coming along good. I am thinking about making me a custom racer using the Chi-Town as a base and doing a nice multicolor paint job using a techquice I found in the latest issue of SA.

Thats a cool concept.

They need to do it in 1/25th. If not, well I will have to make room for a 1/8 model!

Accoriding to the newest eposide of Gearz, which was the Revell Model Contest Winners episode, Revell is considering putting a 1/25 scale version of Stacey David's Rat Roadster into production. "I was so inspired by a model that was entered in the contest and the real car, I said we had to make a kit of it", says Ed Sexton of Revell, Inc. It is aready in the design phases and Revell says it should be out by mid to late 2012. I would buy one, would you?
