Bagged S10
JasonFL replied to Pullin Gears's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
I'm not to sure, but I don't think so. I'm pretty sure you have to use a photo sharing web page. How were you able to post the photos on here because how ever you are doing it seems to be working? They might be small but they still look good when you enlarging them. Try using the search, I'm sure there is more then a couple topics on the forum about this. -
It's pretty funny this topic popped up again cause I literally just got done doing this to all my cords today. I myself have always been a twisty tie guy myself but this actually works great and less of a pain in the rear. Thanks again for the tip Joe.

I know when I I use photobucket they give me an option on weather I want to copy the img link or attachment link. So I just. Copy and paste the img link. Hope that helps -
Static S10
JasonFL replied to Pullin Gears's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
I have to say, I actually think i like this one more then your other one. I got a thang for the old s10s. Love the color and rims you put on, keep it up with the killer truck builds. can't wait to see what else you got -
Bagged S10
JasonFL replied to Pullin Gears's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
I 2nd that. Nothing like a slammed s10, nice touch leaving the front up and draggin that rear. It would be so cool to find a way to add sparks coming out the back. Btw are those chrome camaro rims? Real nice build. Welcome to the forum, a lot of great people here. -
Great tutorial, very detailed and helpful. I would love to see a tutorial on the tabs or even how you go about building any of your air ride setup. Do you scratch build everything, like the air tank, compressor, etc.? You do some really clean work and I appreciate you taking the time to make tutorials. Thanks again buddy

How2 Aluminium Rod Ends & Suspension Brackets
JasonFL replied to mopar68's topic in Tips, Tricks, and Tutorials
Man Zac, that is cool. I don't think I have a lot of the materials but you gave me a good idea on how to go about making them. Thanks so much for posting up the tutorial, I appreciate all the help as I'm sure everyone does. -
I would have to agree with the others, that chop looks great. If you go into the "trading" part of the forum I'm sure someone would trade you the rims/tires you want for the ones that come in your sedan kit or try the wanted section. A lot of great people here with some killer projects, enjoy and welcome to the madness.

Man, I really love that color. I know you said the color on the 1:1 looks washed out in photos even with it being outside but to me the green you painted looks so much better and you didn't even have to go outside to show how beautiful and smooth it looks. I painted the motor in one of my custom trucks with House of Colors lime time green and it reminds me a lot of that color. I'm not a fan of things being stock but I'm looking forward to seeing this come together. Nice job again with that paint.

Looking good so far. Liking tose ghost flames and frenched in antennas. Nice work

Project: "Inferno" 49 Merc - *Update p17* 3/13/15
JasonFL replied to JasonFL's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Thanks Albie. I'm really tring to get that rocker on the ground man but the front tires are up as far as possible. So unless I grind the tires down a bit or something else I think Ill have to settle for it sitting a bit above the ground. Ahhh well. I'll keep working on it. -
Ya, me to. I checked the topic a lot but my YouTube really blows sometimes. Videos aren't bad here and there but you can never look at enough photos...lol.
-
It's really coming together. Can't wait to see it after you lay them flames down. Not sure if you figured out the seat cover thing but couldn't you just use a piece of scrap material with the same pattern on it and wrap the seats? I pretty sure they have those big rolls of material in Walmart. I would just go see if they have any scraps laying around or just buy a small amount. This way it's the same pattern and gives you the material feeling. Just a suggestion. Anyways, nice build, keep it coming.

I like your idea of stuff being in the back seat, that would really be the icing on the cake. That hood shouldn't be to bad, just throw a piece of tape down and do your first couple scribes really really slow. I found going that slow helps make the first couple grooves and then it's all butter from there. It's well worth the patients. Nothing someone with your skills can't handle, keep it coming.
-
Yea man, that would be great! I don't have much supplies so i just use what I have. I've been trying to make tabs out of the little number tabs off the parts trees. Worked great for the front suspension but not so much for the linkage.
-
Zac, this thing is killer. Nice touch with that right hand drive conversion and that suspension looks great. How did you do those link bars and tabs? I tried making tabs that small and man what a pain in the balls. Can't wait to see more, keep it up.

Lets See Your Replicas of Yours/Your Families Cars
JasonFL replied to Platerpants's topic in Model Cars
I always wondered what happened to those trucks and the old woody's they put in the Ron Jon Surf shops. Im curious to know how you even got a hold of it and what ended up happening to it? -
'50 Ford Pick-up
JasonFL replied to Pat Minarick's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
That's good to know cause I really like those rims. I'll have to find a set for future builds. Thanks. -
That's what I keep telling myself...lol. I have yet to get up and move over to the bench. Good luck, maybe you'll have more success.
-
Welcome to the site. A lot of friendly people around here who build all kinds of different stuff. Don't be afraid to ask questions, everyone is full of some great advice and helpful tips. Some nice builds, keep em' comin.

Oh mamma...that is gorgeous! I really love the front and rear end treatment and how you laid it out so nicely. I also like what you said, "One of my favorite times in kustom history is probably the Watson era, mid 60's coupes, a little shaving, healthy slam, and candy paint is a winning combo in my opinion." I would have to agree and say this is the perfect example of that. Very nice job, well executed.

'50 Ford Pick-up
JasonFL replied to Pat Minarick's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Did you happen to make the rear rims have more deep dish then they come in the kit. I looked up photos and yors look like they have a bigger lip then the kits? -
