  1. Great idea, well executed, looks great!
  2. My first finished project this year. It took so much longer than I thought it would. The headers gave me fits, the kits left header refuses to stayed glued to the motor, and the rear bumper falls off if you just look at it. I ran outside and photographed it while everything was hanging on still. As is becoming my trademark no fuel lines , though I have carburetor linkage and spark plug wires. I haven’t built this kit in over 50 years, and I found a couple of issues I had to work around but nothing major. I seemed to have lost a little of my skills since COVID. But I’m still getting better. Hope you like it!
  3. That’s very cool Dave, great save! Looks great!
  4. Small update doing some final assembly, age the turquoise to the body side molding
  5. That’s beautiful
  6. Amazing work!
  7. I love it, great stance, I love the low buck steel wheels. Very well done!
  8. I’m watching Snake, I love Kit bashing and saving tired old plastic too!
  9. Ok, so I’ve been stuck on the headers, for way too long, I’ve tried all the suggestions listed above, tried making my own a couple of times with solder, and I’m done, I’m moving on. I used the kit headers and I’m calling it close enough. I’m calling the chassis done, I added a helmet to the interior. I scratch built the master cylinder. Getting closer to my first complete build this year.
  10. Nice clean detailing!
  11. I tried those they would not fit either.
  12. Wow I can’t believe the last time I posted was in February, since then I’ve moved my daughter back from Indiana and had little to no bench time. I really hate to loose the momentum I had building last year, so I’m trying to push a little more. Small update, I got the gages added to the interior, the chassis is done except for the drive shaft safety loop. The chrome trim is done and the glass installed. I’ve added spark plug wires to the engine. I’m getting close
  13. Very nicely built, love the color combo and the wheel choice.

    That’s beautiful Jim!
  15. So very cool!
  16. Wow Joe, that’s nice, I love WW2 aircraft and I have never built one. It inspires me though.
  17. I was getting worried about you Joe
  18. So Joe, the NHRA has sold Atlanta Dragway, and this weekend is the last race there. I went today and I found this in the pits and took some shots for you.
  19. I love kit-bashing, great work Mike!
  20. Excellent work, well done!
