  1. Hello everybody! Since there isn't a wanted section for the diecast stuff, I hope this is ok. I am in search of a 1:18th scale Welly 1986 Mustang GT diecast. I need one for a project. I am having a hard time finding one. If anyone has one & would like to part with it, PLEASE let me know. I have stuff to trade or will pay. Thanks for looking. This is the one I am looking for:
  2. That looks great Frank!!! Love me a '93 Cobra, especially a teal one!
  3. Hey everyone! I was wondering if anyone makes a body of 1 of these? Thanks for looking!
  4. Love the color on this one , Shane. Wheels look good with the flat centers, too. Perfect!
  5. Sure thing Christian! I cut the frame up on the Dub City car, both front & rear. I cut the ends where the brake rotors attach & where the metal axles come through to attach the wheels, and glued them to the Falcon chassis. The Falcon engine bay was not used, I made inner fenders & a radiator support from styrene. The engine is from an Auto Art Mustang GT. The engine is molded in 2 halves & splits in the middle. I cut a piece of styrene wide enough to sit between the inner fenders & glued the engine to that piece of styrene. I made a cold air intake from styrene & a resin cast filter. It still rolls just like it did, but the front wheels aren't steerable anymore. It looks like a complete engine when you open the hood. Hope this helps.
  6. Thanks everybody! It's a 1:18th scale diecast. The wheels are from a Dub City 1:24th scale diecast.
  7. That's a good looking puller sir! Keep it going!
  8. Hey everybody! I've been fooling around with this Falcon for a while now, and I finally got it finished up. It's got a 4.6 3 valve from an '05 Mustang GT, new suspension, & new wheels. Stock interior that's been flocked. All comments welcome!!
  9. That looks right good, Anthony! Reminds me of Dwayne Wolfe's Pro Mod Firebird.
  10. The white Pegasus wheels look good on that 51. Sweet truck!
  11. That's a good lookin' ragtop Shane!
  12. Dude!! That looks really good. It sits waaaaaay better than out of the box. I'm digging the redlines ,too. Killer build.
  13. Man o Man!! That is killer Cesar! Love all the machined parts, and those wheels.....
  14. Hey Everybody! I finally got some time on the bench with the F150. I took an idea from roadrunner79. I got a Craftsman Truck kit & used the chassis from it to get the stance & suspension I wanted. I stretched it about a 1/4 inch, and it sits just right I think. The engine now sits like it should, too.
  15. Good Combo! Love me a 63 1/2 Galaxie!!
  16. Gorgeous little coupe. Love the color, wheels, everything!
  17. That's a mean looking Camaro Jim. Love the amount of detail in this thing!!
  18. Hey everybody is entitled to his or her opinion. It's just a model car, this is how I wanted to do it. Thanks everyone for the comments. I thought about doing the wheels a different color,but I wanted a low key,toned down look. That's why I did it the color I did it, too. I wanted something different, and I think I've accomplished that.
  19. The valve covers, heads, & headers are from the COPO camaro kit, I just smoothed the covers & shot them orange. The scripts are decals from the Revell 57 Belair post kit, the hood & trunk emblems. I thought it would look kinda nostalgic, & I like the way it turned out.
  20. The wheels came off of ebay, a seller named forward resin. I bought a second set for the Monogram 55 F100 kit, gonna do something a little different with that one also. Very nicely casted wheels.
  21. Hey Shane, love those Hellas in white! That looks killer. Might be stealing that idea for a '67 Fairlane project.
  22. That is GM Butternut Yellow from Paintscratch. Great material to work with.
  23. Hey Everybody! I finally got around to getting some color, decals, & clear on this thing. I haven't wet sanded or polished anything yet, but it's getting there.
  24. That looks badass Shane! Great stance, color, wheels, the whole shootin' match! What did you use to paint the grille?
  25. Hey Everybody! I've been fooling with this Camaro for about a month now. I found some really nice resin steel wheels on ebay, & took the dog dish hubcaps from the COPO Camaro kit. Going for a pro-touring look I guess. Paint will be Butternut Yellow with the black nose stripe. Power comes from the kit big block. Thanks for looking & all comments welcome!!
