Thanks guys ! I know that 1:1 chevelle has to be one of the nicest I've ever seen for sure . I wont be building it riht on the button at all but tons of great ideals rom it for sure .

ideal car

so I was on a web site and seen someones beautiful black chevelle and I had one I had bought from a lot and was trying to figure out what to do with it . gave me a great ideal if my paint came out ok . so here it s so far .

I agree your builds are wicked nice !

Looking good !!!

I dont know if there's a pic limit here but some of what you can do with the web and really loud music playing.

You guy's are all right The best rod to use is evergreen #222 its a little .060 as its .062 and it works great even though I use .080 for the main rails on my chassis's and it works well. I have built over 200 of these things and I tell what the best thing to do is hittin the web and google hard and first find the type of class of car you want then look for the chassis builder's that build alot of them and blow the pics up and study them then just like drawing do it with plastic has always worked for me .The more you do the easier it gets .It sounds easy but I really didnt want to spend top buck for an outdated revell pro stock chassis and try to make it look updated it was just way easier to build it myself. And you cant beat the detail that doing it this way opens up to the subject .

Looking good !

Yes last one with twin turbo .

That would be great if that is what the chassis was built for . Moding the chassis to fit that body would not be worth it at all.It would be easyier to just build a chassis to "fit " that body .

Well here ya go the mirrors are not on it that way there not lost in shipping but as far as it goes here it is lol. I am happy I built this car Iam also really happy I didnt go as far as doing the trunk details also Tanks,pumps,etc because that would really take a while. but thanks guys for looking and off to the next build.

Hey while your on your ride drive on up here and pick me up please lol. Its finished and I will post pic later tonight or tomarrow thanks for the nice words guys it really does mean alot.

Man that just looks and sits right !

I remember lol. That things been out there a while. I have more pics of the model and the 1:1 car on my photobucket if you guys want to see more I still have alot to go on it so I will keep updating as I go.Thanks again guys! http://s6.photobucket.com/albums/y245/raub/

Thank you guys ! I dont have a lot of photos of the engine as once at a certain point you had to really build the car around it .I have to say it is one of the hardest builds I've ever worked on.Just trying to keep everything somewhat covered up was crazy.

Hello new here but not to Model building I see lots of builders here I know from the other place. But getting tired of being over there, so wanted to say Hi and thanks for having me . So my latest build is of the Suckers bet nova built by W2W and Kurt Urban. ls2, twin blowers,and a crusty old nova = lots of fun from stop light to stop light .S anyways here is the build its not finished yet but its getting there.Thanks again!

Hey Phil glad to see you working on the bird and also glad it got to you ok. Just wanted to throw out a few ideals for ya ,maybe to help ya out on this build .The hood I did for this other firebird was a big large but after doing more on the car it really worked with it .Hope this helps a bit .
