  1. Bid on this '59 Impala wagon, now to find a '59 Elli chassis!
  2. Finishing shock installation and got rubber mounted.
  3. After checking out this post, I decided to look into what I want to do for mine. Found these in my for sale pile, same height as original tires. Just need spinners... maybe.
  4. After another member posted about wheel choices for his Astro 1, I decided to look at different options for mine. This is a set I found in my for sale pile, I really like these, tires are same height as original.
  5. Some progress... engine details, shocks, and magnetos. Also added u-bolts to the front springs
  6. I used a piece of brass flat stock a bit wider than the styrene I wanted to shape. Cut the profile into the brass, as wide as the styrene stock I used which acts as a guide to keep the profile consistent. It worked well for me, it is a profiled scraper.
  7. Can you supply a link to his listings and a name he lists under?
  8. I don't have Facebook, don't know what his profile or whatever looks like. He is from PA, not far from Ron at RMR
  9. I haven't talked to him for awhile, I know he had some health issues some time back. Check for him on Facebook, easiest way to get a hold of him.
  10. Been awhile,but have been doing some lathe work. Injector stacks, oil cans, now magnetos.
  11. Most or all packages have a free amount of insurance. I am not putting it on my customer, but the Postal Service. And my customers have gotten results after referring them to the Post Office. If packed properly, it's up to them to deliver a package without damage.
  12. I've received my share of damaged packages, some due to horrible packing, others due to postal mishandling. But as a seller, it irritates me when a buyer contacts me to complain about a damaged package, that has obviously been crushed or damaged in transit. That is on the Postal Service!! Contact them, and they will take care of it.
  13. Some more assembly
  14. Finally got some progress to show. Chassis at pre-assembly stage, headers, oil filters, and some resin work.
  15. Not too bad to do, I have a tool from my slot car fabricating days that let's me bend them easily. Just getting in the groove of using it, material tolerances, movement, etc. Yes, that's shrink tubing. Thanks for looking!!
  16. I know right? A technique I found on here and I really like the look!
  17. Lot of work for a small update. One set of headers done.
  18. Axel and steering on one, will get other chassis caught up tomorrow. Waiting on a rearend and springs in the mail. Also will start some priming then making headers and so on... Thanks for looking!
  19. Is there a link to his items?
  20. Update... working on suspension parts
  21. Haven't had a lot of time at the bench, plus everything is tedious right now. Enlarged trani tunnels, made trani mounts and brackets, also some body sculpting. Forgot I got the cross member cut out and front frame rails revamped.
  22. Curious, if a coat of clear over the primer would help?
  23. Ok, I've been wanting to finish this anyway, and now since Fat Brian is doing the Deceptacon Mustang...I will try to finish the Bumblebee Camaro.
