  1. This has always been one of my favorite cars, are you going to build it with twin turbos like the 1:1?
  2. Are they the Phoenix Models hinges? I saw those online the other day but I couldn't figure out how to change the currency into US dollars on their website so I could buy some.
  3. I saw it a few weeks ago, Those Lincolns are awesome!
  4. I'll have some updates on the Impala soon since I'm finally on summer vacation from school!
  5. I'm building a 36 ford and I was wondering what kind of hinges I should use to make the hood open the correct way where it is split down the middle and folds up like wings as it opens. I was thinking of using some kind of piano hinges but I'm having trouble finding some that would work.
  6. Yes, the primer will help the paint stick to the plastic.
  7. A coat of metalizer or a good sealer will cover the orange, and when I do candy paint jobs I use either gold or silver as a base depending on what effect I want.
  8. Thanks for all the great comments guys! Wheels are Pegasus 23 inch chrome T's with the centers painted black.
  9. Heres my most recent finished build, I was hoping to enter it in the Revell/Gearz contest but the pics won't upload. I scratch built the front subframe, front and rear suspension, core support, fuel injection, and shifter. The front seats are slightly modified 2002 Camaro pieces and the rear seats are from a 69 Camaro. I also used the bumpers and lower valances off of a 69 Camaro and a hood scoop from a 69 corvette. Paint is DuPont Tectic Gray Pearl with Nason urethane clear. Let me know what you guys think!
  10. I give up, the website keeps freezing.
  11. I tried to submit my pics last night and it just kept trying to submit for 2 hours with no success
  12. Did you shrink the pic size down to 2 MB? If not they won't go through.
  13. Thanks for the compliment, I'm still really surprised that I got a best of class ribbon since all the builds were top notch. I can't wait until the October show! Great job to everyone who entered!
  14. Great pictures! I was so mad when I realized I forgot to bring my camera to the show.
  15. What time does registration for the contest end?
  16. Great start Niko, I can't wait to see more progress!
  17. I've used small half round styrene with good results on a few 57 chevys.
  18. Meguiars scratch x is the best compound I've found yet.
  19. Are you using paint that is made for airbrush use?
  20. Thanks! thats exactly what I was looking for.
  21. Does anyone know where i can get a small sheet of photo etch screen to make grills out of? I need some for a 69 nova I'm building and i don't want to spend the money on a full detail set for it since I would only be using the grill. Thanks, Billy
  22. I'm building a 69 Nova using this 1:1 that I helped build as inspiration.
