  1. Yes, just be sure to use an automotive type primer under it. Like Duplicolor or the like. Many have even used base coat/clear coat. Actually, MCW paints are PPG based. Here's a couple of mine
  2. Yes, just have to check his website, but email him.
  3. Started working on misc. to break it up, but soon realized I need to start with frames. Deleted exhaust from both a little differently this time, a lot easier.
  4. The one Camaro 2in1 kit has the Minilites , there not bad. I have some from Fireball Motorworks, and of course.... they're great. Check his website out!
  5. I always use a hairdryer, you can regulate the heat with settings and the distance from the work piece and duration of heat applied. Can also go back to tweek if need more movement, a little at a time is best so as not to crack surrounding areas. Also heat surrounding areas slightly ( ie: a body) for the same reason and also to help these areas change their memory also. I have noticed resin tends to need way less heat than styrene, again a little at a time. Also, if warping isn't bad, when finished with each round of heat, hit with some cool air. If working with a heavily warped piece, you can let heat come down more slowly, then maybe some cool air. Just play with it to develop the technique.
  6. This link doesn't seem to lead anywhere
  7. Got the Lola kit today, the other box is two DIY projects for my daughter and I. 3D printed parts for cosplay accessories. The last pics are what they will be built into.
  8. Found a 1:1 that functions with a ramp.
  9. Cleared it a bit, starting the second and third Stude builds
  10. Well the title stated Flintstone Flyer x3....so it's time to work on no. 2 and 3. Going to do both at same time, again many parts are already fabbed, should...go pretty well. For those interested in following again!
  11. This is an idea that came to me after I acquired the Astro-1 concept car. It's not on the workbench, but in my future que for sure.
  12. I completely agree with you, I'm sure most if none of the re casters have legal consent from the auto industry to reproduce any part of their work. The credit goes to the original desingers who crafted promos and kits by hand from scratch.
  13. Be sure to check out his other deals Here's some of what I and others have used it for
  14. If you order some from the guy on eBay you don't have to heat it, works great!
  15. Then scratch build from some small diameter stryrene rod.
  16. Well, he currently has nothing on eBay either. So....?
  17. Got this today, very restorable Chevy Astro 1 experimental car. Couldn't resist the body lines.
  18. Are the Olds wheels and axles from a promo?
  19. I recently received some kit boxes with some parts. One of which is an original issue '67 Olds Toronado. The parts pictured are also Toronado, but a different year? Different kit? Some custom parts from something else? Thanks for any help!! Karl
