  1. Where did you get the PE sets? I have a need for one also.
  2. Thought about doing this also. Look into Pro Mods!
  3. That's pretty cool. He said it was an old 3in1 with custom option, I hadn't seen one done like this before.
  4. Got a few things today, some from a friend I met at a swap meet, GT from a dealer I know, Escalade from Michael's at 50% off and decals from a hobby store.
  5. These three are what was available when I got them, stopped by another store across town(s) and nothing.
  6. Traded with ewetwo, quick shipping and packed well! Thanks to you also!
  7. Found these at HL on clearance yesterday.
  8. Mainly depends on material thickness, needs to be micro thin to form to areas being trimmed.
  9. Has anyone used this for retro window tint?
  10. Same to you Eric, and good to put names and faces together with some others!
  11. Yes I did, thanks Steve.
  12. Thanks, but several months ago I would have said the same to someone else. Just experiment and watch builds others do for inspiration.
  13. Saturday early before our show...
  14. Well after lots of mishaps/learning opportunities, I'm calling this done! Made it for our show today, not expecting a win, but showing for the owner and club build. Realized wherever these decals came from, they are not great, incorrect in several ways, and incomplete by far. Checking with new MCW owner here in town, he stated the decals may have been made for it. I will add pics to Under Glass section later. Thanks for all the comments!
  15. There not as hard as you think, this gasser build has expanded my abilities beyond anything I've done before. But all the inspiration comes from guys on here!
  16. After looking for the same thing myself and searching many of my kits, to find nothing adequate, I checked a few tutorials on here. From turnable straight axel, to springs, to shocks. I decided to scratch build everything. You check details of my progress in the build section..Flintstone Flyer II x3
  17. Working on details, trying to get ready for our club show next weekend. I had to shorten the velocity stacks, make the catch cans, started making headlight bezels, and got it painted. Didn't come out as I wanted, had to wet sand everything. First pic is base coat, second is after clear
  18. I use Duplicolor primer, sometimes sealer, especially if I need a lighter shade. But as long as you have that auto grade barrier, you should be good. I also thin with lacquer, low end, not even medium. Just started using base/clear acrylic-enamel on this Stude project, looking forward to seeing the results. Wouldn't bother with the self etching, no need.
  19. Got most of the wiring and plumbing done on the Stude.
  20. Well, had a set back...I had to rebuild the motor mount and refinish the stacks. Mount broke and stacks were being annoying, plus wasn't completely happy with the finish. Got some plumbing and wiring done, also testing body color.
  21. Some assembly!
