  1. Thanks Tom. It was a gift from another UK modeller the sign lights up & flashes too. The plan is to add more detail & a larger parking area.
  2. Only 1 from me, but plenty in the stash waiting . .. . Revell 57 with Dodge Copperhead wheels & tyres
  3. Very nice 1;1 Crew Cab. I'll be watching the build.
  4. Well ya cant go wrong with the Pepper Shaker versions I think you covered most the stock / street issues Greg, so not much else I can ad, except the latest blue car AMT issue, only includes the stock parts. ie no 409 & custom goodies ect. Jed theres also the drag issues, Monograms 'Plum Crazy' funny car, Revells Tom McEwan funny car & Soff Seal pro mod. And the cartoon issues, Zingers / Deals Wheels ect If it was me, think it would have to be a Revell sedan or an AMT new tool Street Machine. But thats just me . . . . . .
  5. Sorry Gents not been on for a while due to long work hours. Thanks for all the replys. Those Scenes Unlimited hitches are real nice, but I think I'll go with some of your ideas & try & make one. Though I also have a stepside kit, so will have to have a look in there too.
  6. I'm building a Revell Silverado pickup as a tow vehicle, using the stock rear bumper. Do any kits come with tow hitch & balls ? Or any resin available ? If not is there an easy way to make them ?
  7. Great work on that modded bumper !
  8. What a great pair of huge 57's. I love the modded street machine. I have 3 of these that have remained unfinished for too long. Its a real shame that Revell dont update these 1;12 kits with different & more up to date options. Did you cast the over riders ? The white stripe with the Cragars looks cool.
  9. Joe, its got a blown Rover (an old Buick sb that was in many British cars) in it. Its got a hole host of modifications including Tri Chevy truck headlight / fender eyebrows. As its still registered as a Taxi, the owner can drive in bus lanes in London lol. Its not mine, but I chatted with the owner a few times as its a local car to me. I'll post a few newer pics when I get chance.
  10. Sorry Keith, its me that needs to apologise. The neg comments were actually posted over on the other channel not on here. You comment wasnt negative in any way. I was looking at both forums late after a long day & got the 2 crossed. Sorry I goofed Gents. (do pay attention at the back peppershaker lol)
  11. A great looking (erm crappy looking but great) build. I really do like it. Look forward to seeing the finished pics posted in under glass Carlos
  12. Looking really good.
  13. Thanks Dale. Just gotta find the time to start mine.
  14. Thanks for the reply Robert. Its a US import, so would be the same. I wasn't aware they were different from ends. But I haven't got the 1;1 or 1;25 home yet lol
  15. VERY nice. I too have an Evil Twin planned. Did you modify the suspension for the larger wheels ? I'm using the Dodge Copperhead rims & tyres for mine.
  16. Does anybody make a resin grill ect to use with the Revell Chevy Silverado ext cab 99 on pick up ? Im not familiar with the Chevy kit, but am buying a 1;1 2000 GMC & always try to make a 1;25 of my 1;1's, so any help or advice would be appreciated..
  17. Fantastic. And as Lowlife says, very realistic for a UK Transit. I used to drive a yellow one just like that, but thankfully at the time it wasn't in that condition.
  18. The blue latest issue, only comes with stock parts. Gone are the 409 & blowers ect & all the good ol' stuff. I'll have to check (kits are in the attic) but I thought the Boyd issue came with all the old stuff and huge wheels & low suspension ? (But I'm often wrong lol) If you only want it for a doner kit, get the cheapest ! Oh & as for the Pepper Shaker issues . . . . . . .
  19. Nice AG55 Snake. I have one heading for the paint stripper soon . . . .
  20. Very nice Nomad. What parts come in the resin conversion ?
  21. Thanks Bill, just what type of pic I was looking for.
  22. Thanks for the replys Gents, and Scott yes you are right. Its the Revell panels I want to see, not the 1;1's. My 57 has a Glide custom split front bench, so its not a stock interior. The door panels are also custom but with the 56 stainless trim. I'm trying find pics of the Revell 56 parts to compare with the 57 150 & bel air parts.
  23. Please can somebody post pics if the interior door / rear 1/4 panels for the Revell 56 del ray sedan ? I want to see the panel trim detail. I'm collecting parts for a 1;25 of my 57 Chevy sedan. It has door trim from a 56, straight chrome instead of the 57's curved.
  24. This is a great 57 snap kit, nice looking build Sam. I've never thought about spray the self adhesive decals, they normally get tossed aside.
