  1. Thanks guys........drive train install is next. YEAH! Cheers, Tim
  2. Gorgeous build. Congrats sir. cheers, tim
  3. Big ol' grin on my face John. This is one I too always wanted to build. If it weren't for you building it in 1/16th scale, I would be happy to send some parts I've accumulated for this particular car, but I only have 1/25th stuff......sorry. I can't wait to see this beauty come together. I'll check to see if I have any pics I can email you. I do have a copy of an original Hot Rod? article on the car if you think that might help ya'. Cheers
  4. Completed (finally) the hand brake / master cylinder and connected the line from the master to the rear "T" fitting. Last step will be hooking up the brake lines from the T to the calipers once they're installed. I had to switch out my brake handle for a unit from Futurattraction which I had to extend a wee bit. cheers
  5. That is SO sweet Steffen. Thanks for sharing and one can't ignore how totally clean the build is. Cheers, tim
  6. John, don't forget to post pics of the bike outside. As beautiful as it is in these pics, I can't wait to see it in the daylight. cheers,
  7. Bruce, first the "Wolf" and now the T4. We must be similar in age and grew up during the greatest era of F1. These cars were just fantastic and I'm a big fan of what you're building. The details and realistic nature of what you've gotten done to date is fantastic. More please. Cheers, Tim
  8. Just wonderful details you're capturing here Mark. As others noted before, great great job cheers, tim
  9. Beautiful Chris. I love the car and YOUR photography. Cool effect which really compliments your car. I look forward to your next build. cheers, tim
  10. I hadn't checked this out before Mike, my loss but I know I'll be following along as you progress. I like the last pic you shared especially and your sense of humor. cheers, tim
  11. Erroll, sorry for the delay in replying. Unfortunately no, I won't be attending the GSL. Was sorry to hear that there are only 2 events left. Truly outstanding show that I'm not likely to ever attend. Thanks for asking however. Thanks as always Dave. I'm slow but making headway on it. At this point in time, it will get done sooner than later but I'm really taking my time to make sure I don't screw up any of the paint finish on the chassis etc. Tedious with a capital "T". Chris & Dave (goatguy) I too appreciate your interest still. Sorry my headway hasn't been speedier........life slowed me down a little bit. But should start to pick up now and make some good headway the next 2 months or so. I'll finish the paint on the body come May or June (if we don't get a crappy wet spring and summer like last year) and wrap it up over the Summer. The pics show the install of the master cylinder, which fought me every which way possible, you'll note the axle spacers are secured (each has 8 bolts) and the axle pinion collar is installed. The axle is not permanently installed yet nor the brakes but I do some mock-ups as I do each little thing to confirm the assembly order. cheers everyone. tim
  12. WHAT? 2 builds going at the same time by Tyrone. Could it get any better? (rhetorical unless you're going to post a 3rd build) Nice to see you back Tyrone. cheers
  13. I've a weakness for promods Wayne. cool build sir! I too like the way you positioned & secured the turbos. Great idea. cheers, tim
  14. Whenever I see a Cobra, I think of you Ray. I was looking at pics of drag cars on the H.A.M.B. and saw some vintage drag cobras. Not something you see everyday but they were just evil looking (in a good way of course). cheers
  15. Nice mock-up Rickard. You've got to be excited it when you see it like that. Thanks for posting. cheers, tim
  16. S A W E E T Dann. That thing is cool. cheers!
  17. Been too long Tyrone. Nice to see you're posting and most certainly, a great thread here. Cheers, tim
  18. Trying to post what a nice job you're doing Dann.......but I'm getting the dreaded 404 error message. cheers? tim
  19. Steven, the last few pics you posted (love the engine bay especially) are nothing short of amazing. Beautiful finish on the paint too. cheers, tim
  20. What a nice save. Kudos to you for taking on the challenge and making it happen. Cheers, tim
  21. That's popping Dominick. I really like everything you've done on this build. Congrats on a job well done! cheers, tim
  22. Nice looking Brad. Those pesky assembly details will drive ya' nuts sometimes as if you didn't know. Cheers!
  23. Scott, thanks for stopping by and commenting. The fun begins. John, thanks man, btw, for those of you that haven't stopped by "All the Rest" on the forum, be sure to check out John's "Coca-Cola" trike. It's a stunner. I mention it as I don't check the category out all the time and I'm glad I didn't miss his build. Brad, nice to see you on an altered again. I ALWAYS enjoy your builds. Thanks too for the compliment, especially since I'm a Ford guy. Chris, best of luck to you sir at the GSL show. I've no doubt you'll take home some hardware with your funny car. Glad you started that build before I ever started this one, learned some great techniques from you along the way. JC, thank you too for checking it out. Like what you're doing with your Falcon build & your execution, as always is fantastic. The pics I just shared of the bantam has given me a lot of impetus to get this done. Like everyone that has followed this build I can't wait to see it done too. Hopefully it comes out as envisioned. Cheers to one and all! Tim
  24. HUH? That's my response John on how in the heck you do it. I hope to see this one someday too. Gorgeous model. Thanks Chris too for pointing out the fuel line. Like all your builds John, you can just soak it all in and still miss something cool. Always fun to revisit your threads. Cheers !!!
  25. Nice project Wayne. This will be a fun one to follow for sure. That body is phenomenal. Cheers
