    I'm not sure where you are located, (US or abroad) but this has a European style plug, which aren't necessarily expensive to buy, but ...Also check the voltage, I traded for one on here very similar and it was set up the same with 220 volt. I didn't have time nor desire to run extra wiring for it, so I just sold mine.

    Forgot to add these items, while I picked up the Ford PU, I stopped at a local hobby shop. I like finding places while traveling.

    In my experience, the areas that separated are places where things can "pool". Whether it be kit oils or soap from cleaning. Also the primer and paint, from pooling and reactivation, or lack of mixing, and.... sometimes just a bad bottle or can of paint. My two cents....

    Picked up another Black Beauty and 1960 Ford PU at Hobby Lobby

    Have a good time, I can't make it this year. Always a good time seeing everyone again!

    "tooling" for bed rails( boy those blades look rough up close,lol) And since the grooves in the blade are slightly different, I reversed it and pulled across the styrene again, which seemed to even out the pattern.

    When I need to make side molding and now bed rails, I use a one sided razor blade and cut the needed profile into the edge and then scrape along the length of some flat styrene matching the desired width of molding. The rivets or bolts are poked from the opposite side with something round and somewhat pointy. In this case it was the tip of a round file. I will try to load some pics later.

    Did some test fitting of all that you see, a little tweaking was done here and there, but overall came together well...

    Interior tub is finished, I may find some items to add to it before final assembly. Also working on the hood detail and engine bay area.

    Little more on the interior, dash still needs some work.

    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....

    I would think you could lay a little extra paint ,and still lightly sand. Or mist a coat of gray, or dry brush??

    Are you looking for an original issue?

    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!)

    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.

    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.

    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?

    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

    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.

    I found this on Pinterest awhile back...
  21. 64SS350
    Some parts for future projects....may have something to do with the Top Kick resin cabs I acquired a few months ago.
  22. 64SS350
    I also have several in the painting que box, will be getting my spray booth finally so as to finish those.

    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!

    Working on the interior tub, I'm having to install a larger drive line tunnel since the transfer case was added.
