John - that Thames is gorgeous and looks perfect in every way. It probably runs as good as it looks too. I see you left the keys in it, can I take it for a spin? I promise I'll be right back!!

Everyone of these builds in this thread so far is top notch. As for me, seems I'll be uable to finish one this year but am really close on the Fiat Topo. Just paint, decals and a few details to go. Seasons greetings to all my forum friends.

68 camaro pro mod w.i.p updates 09/20/11
gasser59 replied to tyrone's topic in WIP: Drag Racing Models
Awesome indeed!! I really like how the green almost disappears where its next to the yellow and subtly comes back when it fades to the white in the front and orange in the back. OK, Tyrone. I gotta ask how you did that. -
Hi Charlie ~ I don't have personal experience this this group but they came highly recommended. They'll even do 1/4 page sheets so you're not paying for the whole sheet. www.fireballmodels.info/custom_pricing.htm I'm thinking of using him for some upcoming projests plus he's able to do metallics.

This is really nice. I love how it sits and having the rallies is great. My older brother had an SS 396 that screamed. I never could talk him into letting me drive it, probably because I was 16 at the time. He sold it after he got a ticket for doing 120 south of town and lost his license.

Really liking this one Charlie and can't wait for the next update. Its sitting just right.

1/16 Scale Army Vega Funny Car - Finished 10/14/2018
gasser59 replied to Mooneyzs's topic in WIP: Drag Racing Models
Awesome progress Chris. Glad see an update. Loving the fact that you have a new body to work with. Reworking the rear window like we spoke of will be worth it alone. Just how differet are the fronts on the two bodies other than the tire 'vents'? -
That is a great candidate for a gasser build. Where will you source the big and little Cragar SS rims?
-
Charlie - I can make the decal artwork but have no way of printing them. Just need some measurements. At least that's half the battle.
-
Ha Jim!! I'm just full of surprises.

Thanks Ron. Doing up the Harley was fun and a bit different for me. Here's a T shirt design that was done for our club's annual contest in 1996. There's a few of these around but not many.

Now those are some serious eye candy, shiny holiday eye candy. Hard to pick a favorite because I love them all. Really looking forward to seeing what comes out of the lab-RAT-ory on all of these.

She can pit crew for me anytime. On another note, I see Black Magic had two different drivers; Santucci and Segrini. The one photo with the body up and the Santucci driver, shows a difference at the rear of the side window opening where it comes to a point. Were there any other differences that you guys know about? Brett - who's going to be your driver?

Decembers Mongoose kit will be the 70's Monogram kit!

Thanks for posting this Bob. Its now on my lusting after list. -
That's a winner for sure and the photography really looks great. Nicely detailes throughout. Thanks for sharing. What did you use for a basecoat for the Candy Apple Red?
-
Liking this one. A street freak is on my to-do list so I'll definately be following this one.
-
Wow!! This is looking killer. Not usually a fan of green but that color looks great on this body.

Stalled project, you say? well I have a few and I think that my Willys is close to 22 years on the shelf. After getting to making the roll bars, the door hinges wouldn't work no matter if I went traditional or suicide so it got put aside. I thought about just gluing the doors solid but there's just too much going on in the cockpit to not have the doors open. This build was before after market goodies were available so I used what I could find that looked good like colored foil for the anodized fittings, O rings from Bic lighters for the wheelie wheels, painted masking tape for the seat belts and floor mats, the firewall was made from printing plate as well as the seat belt hardware. It has a tilt steering wheel and functioning gas pedal. One day, it'll get done. I promise. Just need to figure out the door hinges. Maybe I'll just leave out the roll cage.
-
You're making great progress on this and I can't wait to see more. Glad to see that you're trying and learning new things on this build. Keep at it Niko. This will be a killer build when done.
-
Yet another incredible build from the Black Widow kit. Nicely done Len and I just love seeing these tribute builds from this kit.

HOW CRAZY ABOUT GASSERS ARE YOU?
gasser59 replied to Dr. Cranky's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Those are really some fine examples of gassers although I question the Fiat as a gasser since the window decal has it listed as a AA/FA making it a Fuel Altered. I've got a few gassers knocking around in my head too and they will be ficticious and vintage. Great thread Dr.
