  1. Great job! Beautiful build
  2. A little more. Thank god that the wiring is easy. Agora lays out the wiring in a very easy manner.
  3. Fabulous, fantastic super build!
  4. Engine installed. Electronics next.
  5. More finished on the GT500. Polished wheels
  6. Steering wheel installed. The interior is completed. Mounted to the chassis. Engine next.
  7. Just a little more. Temporary put parts on to see how it will look. I am going to lower the front end just a little. To make the car level rather than the motorboat look. If I get lucky maybe even a little rake.
  8. Just fit the body on the chassis. I really like this color.
  9. The chassis is comming along. Did not get carried away with any detail. I am under a dead line ( which I hate) and to turn this over is a chore. At around 21 pounds is not a lightweight. Doors , hood and deck lid can get ruined in a hurry turning this over. You do this a few times during assembly and have props , tape and plenty of towels to work on it upside down. Big scale has unique problems to deal with.
  10. This is cool! 1/32 is very interesting
  11. Thank you for the heads up. I’m kind of leaning toward the blue max car. But still deciding. Yours is a great build.
  12. Interior is comming along nicely. The fold down rear seat is really cool.
  13. Air intakes mounted.
  14. Thank you tbill
  15. Working on the chassis. Rear end installed. Lower front arms and upper an arms installed. Doors and front end started.
  16. Yes sir! I used a dremel that has a variable speed. Put it on the lowest setting and it worked . I stripped the wheels with automotive stripper, sanded with 2000, 3000 then used the dremel. Painted the black and painted the lug nuts. Thank you for the directions. They came out nice. Before and after.
  17. Thank you Dann. And thank you Bill ( Mr Obsessive) for the info on the wheels. Was alotta work but they look sooo much better. Stripped with automotive paint stripper. Sanded with 2000,3000. Rubbed with compound with a dremel . Polished with a dremel. Painted the wheels black with molotow on the lug nuts. They look so much better.
  18. Hey Bill, going over your wheel detail. Looks like alotta work. Do you think a dremel with polishing wheel would work? Either way it looks like alotta work. Love your results on your wheels. I’m going to give it a try. Tha nks for your info on the wheels.
  19. Holly cow! This is amazing!!! 11,000 rpm? Insane but totally cool!!! Thank you for posting this.
  20. Beautiful sir, hope to see it at our contest
  21. Well, sanded , rubbed and polished all the parts. Looks slick. Assembly next.
  22. Thank you sir. I tried as much as possible to get things correct. These big kits have other challenges. Especially the paint being so much area. You use a lot of material. There is soooo much surface area. Keeping dust and other stuff out of the paint is a challenge.
  23. Cleared. Tomorrow color sand with 2000 wet and dry. Then rub with compound. Then we are on our way to assembly
