  1. Hi Romell and Chris, Thanks for all the info. I will get a few orders together on the aftermarket parts. I have been watching both your builds and if you guys don't care I would like to use some of your ideas. Dave sent me some pics so that will help. This is a great forum with lots of good people. Romell, I hope you have healed from your fall man that sounded bad. I myself have to take my modeling day by day due to never knowing how bad I will be hurting when I get going. MS really bites and plays with whole body and mind. Thanks again guys for all your help and please keep sending me info. Paul
  2. I got them printed Dave. Thanks so much. Paul
  3. Hi Dave that would be great if you could post some for me.
  4. I have been trying to find some good photo's of the chassis and engine on this car with no luck, If anyone can help that would be great. Hi Brad, I will get some pics loaded shortly. Building this size car has been different but fun.
  5. Well I was able to get most of the chassis straight but what a mess it was.
  6. Hi Jeff, I have dechromed the engine and I am trying to put the lips on the rear fenders and so far not good. I will post some photo's later this week. Thanks Richard for the info on the primer.
  7. Does anyone know if I need to use Primer with Model Master Metalizer Spray Paint. Thanks for any info.
  8. That is sharp Paul. Was it the Revellution kit?
  9. The frame is major warped. Any suggestions?
  10. Iv'e got the Duster body, Revellution. Do you have any modern updates on that car. I was looking at the Vega Army F/C on here and there should be plenty of detail that I can do with my F/C kit. I'm going to give it a try and any photo's or ref. material will help. Do you think that I should strip the chrome?
  11. I just started on it. I'm looking thru all the parts now. Should I dechrome the engine parts? I also looked at the 1/16 Vega F/C and that thing is looking sweet. I would love opinions and help with this and best place to buy parts for the motor. Thanks guys
  12. Hi guys, I finally got the chrome off the engine. I used drano and man did it work fast. I bought some metalizer lacquer by MM and do I need to use a primer 1st and if so what kind. Thanks
  13. You do build some really sweet race cars.
  14. Hi guys, I finally got the chrome off the engine. I used drano and man did it work fast. I bought some metalizer lacquer by MM and do I need to use a primer 1st and if so what kind. Thanks
  15. I see what you mean Greg about time and work on the bigger cars. I can't wait to see more updates. This group has some of the best builders that I have ever seen.
  16. Hi Greg, Thanks for your words. I have had the model since the 90's but I will figure out what to do with it. I strted getting really sick about 2001 and of course the illness has progressed. I have well over 200 kits and I just don't want to give up as it is so easy to do at times. I'm just glad that I met this group and all the wonderful people.
  17. Hi Dave, I didn't take it in a bad way I just figured you guys know what you are talking about so I will listen. Looking at some of the prices for parts I can see where it can get expensive. I will stick to the 24th and 25th scale for now. I am dealing with MS and a few other ailments so I spend time drulling at all you guys work, lol. But I really do thank you for all your help. I will keep looking on here at all the great models being built and go back to my 55 Chevy build. Later
  18. Thanks guys for all the info. I will put the kit away and stick to the 1/24 scale. I did see Terrys 1/16 bodies and they are sharp. You guys keep up the good work on your models.
  19. Hi guys, I am concidering turning this kit into a Pro Mod. I have never built a kit this large and because of my handicap it might be a good size for me. Tell me what you think. I can open the hood and trunk and after seeing all the great stuff in this forum I bet I could get some help on where to get parts, etc. Thanks guys and talk to me.
  20. What type of glue are you using for your chassis? Thanks
  21. Very nice Tyrone. I can't wait to see more.
  22. Thanks or the welcome. I think that I will try putting the lip on the rear fender. What is the best way to strip chrome? I thought that drano might. Oldschool, you are correct. The car was a 67 Camaro, black with a tunnel ram, big tires rear and skinny front. Fast and wild.
  23. That will be sweet.
  24. How could I make the lip around the rear fender or should I just leave it.
  25. Thanks guys.
