  1. Very nice car. Well done. What scale is this?
  2. I've had this kit kicking around for a decade or so: And in in an effort to further stall my BRBO 1976 Chevrolet Bison, in April I decided to start it. The goal was to make a nice looking tractor using everything from the original kit, and I think I succeeded. The kit is box-stock except that I shortened the frame 48mm to a 180" wheelbase. The Kenworth badges below the doors, on the quarter fenders, and on the seat back are JBOT decals I had kicking around, and the badge on the grill is from the Revell of Germany Kenworth W900. The color is Rust-oleum Navy Blue, and the interior color is Dupli-Color Buckskin. The decals are from the original 1992 kit. Interior: Frame with engine (easier to see without the cab): I did have an issue with some missing parts from the Detroit Diesel 8V92T, and was helped out by a Forum member, and the valve covers are from Double Take Replicas. Exterior:
  3. Oddly, the Confederate flag might not be "on" the box, but it is "in" the box.
  4. Great looking Schwalbe. I've always like this aircraft, and A Higher Call is on my "to read" list. (It's a long list.)
  5. That's absolutely awesome!
  6. Some really nice looking Corvettes, and I like the 1957 Bel-Air in the background, too.

    1958 Ford

    Nice looking Ford. Well done. Don't think I've ever seen one of these before.
  8. I like you Charger. The Slant-6 is an interesting engine swap. I have this MPC kit: Is this the same Charger in the box?
  9. That's a pretty cool looking brushbreaker. Future project for you, maybe?
  10. I don't know about weeks, but I've used decal solvent a couple of days after I applied decals with no ill effects that I could see.
  11. Can't say as I've ever had my wife pick a build. Looks like you're off to a good start on your Cruiseliner.
  12. That really looks great. The brass makes it look really unique.
  13. Looks like this will be an interesting build.
  14. That's a really nice looking Sherman. Man, I haven't built a tank in forever!
  15. What pens did you use for the hubs? Just wondering if I'll be able to find something similar here in the US.
  16. Yes, the rear hubs do look better. I like the T600 as a daycab.
  17. Well done. I think Sean Connery would have been pleased.
  18. Very well done. Kind of forgot she had this car. Was so used to seeing her in the Jeep.
  19. Great looking combination, Gareth. The trailer looks very well done, and I really like your K100. Coincidentally, I am finishing one of those kits up right now.
  20. Good kitty! ?? (Don't run. You'll only die tired.)
  21. Very nice looking Camaro. Well done.
  22. That's a great looking GTX, Tony. Very well done. Perfect color.
  23. Looking really nice, Ron. Great plumbing details.
