  8. very creative!
  9. OK, this is the real car ,where's the model? Great build!
  10. I would buy a dozen! Had a 914 and a 914-6. Both great cars.On hwy 5 in calif ,i got 27 miles to the gallon at 80 mph!This was the 914. The 6 would get a little less.but the fun factor is really fun.
  11. I agree with Mr.Bill Engwer, but ralley drivers have the biggest plums! IMHO
  12. Yes, I custom paint and pinstripe. I just got into modeling a few years ago because of a stroke and the doctor said modeling would be good for rehab. The answer is flow. Get the paint off the brush and onto the subject. One shot enamel , I use a grumbacher brush and mineral spirits. My mentor Mike Kline said if you go thru one gallon of this stuff then you are ready. Took 1 year and every night for about 2 hours a night. Glass is great to practice on. You stripe then wipe it off and start again. You will need a phone book to wipe your brush on or a old mag. dixie cups work great to mix colors. It is going to take alot of time but it is worth it. I make a great living at it. I have a very nice house and many real 1:1 fun cars to play with. You can make 300 dollars an hour and it is a blast to do. Here is my latest job and the guy loves it! Hope you stick to this as most people give up. that is why we can charge alot for our craft. Good luck and if you need any info send me a PM and I will try to help.
