  5. Great looking Superliner. Very well done.
  6. Really nice-looking Z. Well done on the diorama.
  7. Great looking Dodge. Well done.
  8. I've watched most of his videos, and the stuff the just rolls in never ceases to amaze me. I find it had to believe that these vehicles are actually on the road! Mildly terrifying. I do find his pronunciations a little strange at times, but whatever.
  9. Thanks for all the replies, guys. I really appreciate it. I'm going to give the TS-11 another shot once CNY gets out of the Deep Freeze we're in (I paint in an unheated garage).
  10. Nice. You going to update the cab, too? Might have to add the suspension to my planned build. It looks really nice.
  11. That's a great looking street machine. Fantastic details.
  12. Thought people here would find this short video from The History Guy about station wagons interesting: I remember when my family moved from East Texas to Miami that we did it in the early 1970s that we did it in a gold Chevrolet station wagon, and my dad ran his farrier service from a Ford Pinto station wagon (a 1975 I think, red with a black interior). I currently own a 2018 Volkswagen Golf GTi station wagon. I don't even think Volkswagen makes it anymore. Let's hear your station wagon stories.
  13. I really like it. Nice little upgrades. This is basically how I build trucks. I call it "Box Stock Plus".
  14. Very nice. Well done.
  15. Nice looking Citroën. Well done. Looks a little like a Toyota Carolla.
  16. Nicely done. I like it.
  17. Great looking Corvette. Very well done.

  19. Very nice.
  20. Well, as you mentioned, the rear suspension needs to be updated. I'd use the rear suspension from the AMT K100 Aerodyne. The front suspension needs to be updated. The NTC350 (or whatever it's supposed to be) is archaic by 1990, so my plan is to put a Detroit Diesel Series60 in mine. The double stich transmission needs to be replaced, and I think the interior could use an update (but I'm not sure on that one). Maybe a more modern steering wheel & dash could update the look.
  21. Well, there is that about the taxes.
  22. Very true. The kit is essentially a 1990s-ish cab on a 1970s frame & engine. To make an accurate T600, a lot of things need to be changed.
  23. Well, there goes some of my hard-earned cash! ?
  24. Nice looking Olds. Well done.
