  1. Little more on the interior, dash still needs some work.
  2. You could check the craft stores in the.. beading section, use the holes for the rope many used for quick removal at ..go time! Also, if you are a hunter or know someone who loads their own shells, check the different sizes of buck and bird shot. My two cents....
  3. I would think you could lay a little extra paint ,and still lightly sand. Or mist a coat of gray, or dry brush??
  4. Are you looking for an original issue?
  5. Progress on the new interior.....carpet installed, door panels painted and assembled, dash needs detailed, and seats are reapolstered. (Boy my bench is a mess!)
  6. These came yesterday, the Camaro is from C1, ordered that about 2 months ago. Either they changed the mold or it's becoming wore out. Body is generally of similar quality, more flash (none on my first purchase) and it's significantly thinner and flexible.
  7. Yes....both were well shaken untill flattening agent was evenly mixed. And no, I did not mix them up, because I used the semi gloss on some door panels which is why I did this test. There was a good amount of settled material in the semi gloss bottle.....hmmm.
  8. I just opened a new bottle of MCW semi gloss clear, but appears more like..anodized finish. So I did a side by side comparison...semi gloss is on the left, 10% flat is on the right. The base color is Model Master Nassau Blue in lacquer requiring a clear top coat. Thoughts as to why the semi looks flatter?
  9. I am in need of a few parts for a 1963 Chevy PU restoration project, anything extra...let me know. Needs include...dash and steering wheel, bumpers, emblems, front and rear lenses. Also a few of the motorcycle parts...frame , forks, wheels and tires. Let me know please, and thanks in advance! Karl
  10. I tried the Tamiya Rubber Black, to me it seemed a little flat, like racing rubber, but maybe my primer base affected the results. I'll have to try a different primer next time, because it sprayed very well. Here I used Dupli-Color flat black, it actually leaves a slight sheen.
  11. I found this on Pinterest awhile back...
  12. Some parts for future projects....may have something to do with the Top Kick resin cabs I acquired a few months ago.
  13. I also have several in the painting que box, will be getting my spray booth finally so as to finish those.
  14. I haven't abandoned this build, looking forward to it being completed. I have been busy building kitchen cabinets for a customer, so once finished, I will buy some resin and silicone so I can proceed with the build. Thanks for following!
  15. Working on the interior tub, I'm having to install a larger drive line tunnel since the transfer case was added.
  16. Good day all, I am looking for answers (or pics) to the question of, is the tow truck pictured on the box the actual truck used? Thanks!
  17. Ok, I think I'm officially done with the resin cab! I have too many models to build to be putting so much time into this one. Here's an update on the new cab. Got the roof done with new drop rail. Cab is mostly done.
  18. Still working on cleaning up these panel lines on the resin cab. Also progress on new cab. Still needs straightened a bit and body work.
  19. https://offthesprue.com/product/3d-wide-track-vers-wheel-tire-set/
  20. Off The Sprue has a nice selection of wide wheel/tire sets also.
  21. A little update....I got all the wheel hub assemblies painted and installed along with part of the steering. In my frustration with this cab and the panel lines, I finally pulled the trigger on making my own cab. Along with doing so, I may have discovered a way to fix them. So the resin cab may get saved yet! Here's my new or next version...
  22. Well, at the end of quoted statement by the plant manager....they are gearing up for a restart on their own account....no further details were listed. Hopefully that happens and we can share any updates!!
