Grandpa's Soxs and Martin Cuda Glue Bomb
ybsluos replied to FoMoCo66's topic in WIP: Drag Racing Models
It’s looking fantastic Ace and it’s really cool that you, your dad and your grandfather all built/build! My father never built plastic kits but he did give me lessons in applying /sanding putty and gave me tips on rattle can spraying to help me hone my model building skills. He also gave me many hand tools to add to my arsenal from his and my grandfather’s toolboxes. Lastly he spent plenty of cash on supplies and kits for me over the years in support of my hobby. Dad and Grandpa have passed but I still feel them near every time I use this files and side cutters etc! Your Grandfather had good taste in serious muscle too! -
https://www.turbosquid.com/FullPreview/1670375 Joe I hope this link works. I found this. Not sure if it’s what you are looking for or if it’s even 1/25 scale. And I don’t do 3D printing myself so I cannot vouch for the quality. In other words I know nothing about this file but I thought I’d try to help. Good luck my friend and I hope you find something to use because I agree on not wanting to buy another Parts Pack one. I have only one and while AMT did a great job on it they don’t come cheap!

Brian this is a beautifully executed build Brother!

Clean and mean work as usual from you Ken! I love the way you photographed it. The taillights almost look illuminated in the one photo. I have long been stuck in a rut of black, white, or red interiors and if I feel really brave, combining a two tone of those colors in the same interior! (Lol))Your Pontiac will make me get out of the pit and try a different color on future builds. Again wonderful work Brother!

Ville, what a stunning Kustom. Very nice workmanship on the entire project but I especially love the laminated knobs. I hope all is well in Finland. I lived in Europe in the mid 80s but never made it to Finland, Denmark or Sweden and those are 3 places I would love to have visited.- Mark

It’s already been said Bill but I have to echo … What a wonderful, save man!

Steve you might try Ron Andrews of Resin Model Ranch if you are not against a cast resin part. Not sure if he has one but he has scads of Mopar parts. I hope you find one my friend. -Mark

1/16th Scale 1988 rear engine dragster, 282 inch wheelbase
ybsluos replied to Ian McLaren's topic in Drag Racing
Wow Ian this is amazing that you did this in 1/16th! No mean feat…..utterly unreal! -
Dan, what can I say that hasn’t already been said? Absolutely unbelievable workmanship and kudos to you for being patient until your skills were good enough to do all the steps on this build. It’s a great tribute to your dad and your friends as well. I talked to Don Fahrni on the phone a couple times in the early 2000s and he was a great guy and amazing builder. -Mark

Hi Bill, do you still have these parts by any chance? If so I would be interested in them. I don’t have much sci-fi but I do have some 60s and 70s Mopar items. Anyhow, just wanted to ask if you still have them. I hope you’re doing well and enjoy Super Bowl Sunday ! Thanks - Mark

All I can say is WOW Joe! Amazing

The 1:1 Uncertain T owner Steve Scott was one of my online acquaintances on The Hub Garage site years back…nice guy. Anyway very nice workmanship Dave! I love the red wash you applied to all finned engine components.

Koenig-Specials Porsche 930 "Road Runner" (Fujimi, 1/24 scale)
ybsluos replied to Tommy124's topic in Model Cars
Amazing work as always Thomas! Love the Koenigs. Actually got passed on the Autobahn outside Munich back in Summer 1986 by a Koenig S4 928 doing about 150 mph! He just drove with his left turn signal directional on constantly, which is a sign when you see that coming up behind you to move out of the way because a fast traveling motorist is coming . What a sight and sound. Your builds are going to make me drag out one of my Koenig kits.
