  1. Super nice outcome.
  2. Ordered a few sets last night. Thanks.
  3. Fronts are available in 3D form. Google Ron Olson 3D printing to find his catalog.
  4. Thanks for the technical data. I always want my builds to be as accurate as possible, if possible and this information helps for the future. After reading your response I went back and looked at the library of research photos of modern super stock hemi engines and noticed the slight offset on all the carb setups that I never saw before. And, since I have at least 10 more of these Darts and Cudas to build I will look into what Fireball offers for more accurate carbs. Thanks.
  5. I'm aware of the carbs inaccuracy. Most of the modern era teams are running Holley 4236 carbs today but there are no good representatives in 1/25 scale that I could find so I went with what I thought looked better even though not correct. The intake rule was changed over 10 years ago allowing these teams to run their own hand fabricated intakes.
  6. Looks good. I'm sure with your skills that the final piece will be superb.
  7. Finally finished another project. Bucky Hess 68 Hemi Super Stock Cuda using an AMT/MPC 69 kit with a 68 resin conversion kit. The chassis is a tubbed resin piece with the front suspension from a Lindberg 64 Dodge. Interior has a scratchbuilt rollcage, parts box seat, photo etch 5 point harness and 3d printed shifter. Engine is a fully detailed combination of kit based and resin pieces. Headers are scratched from solder and aluminum tubing. Driveshaft is also aluminum tubing. Rear suspension is a mixture of resin pieces. Front and rear wheels are also resin and painted with a Molotow chrome pen. The decals are a mixture of homemade and Slixx. It's not my greatest work in recent years but still looks good sitting on the shelf.
  8. Slixx has sheets for the Jenkins Black Arrow 65, Shirley Shahan 65 and the Sox and Martin 65. Haven't seen any others listed from anyone.
  9. Super job John. Leave it to you to pick out another unusual subject and make it look flawless.
  10. Here is the link to my album from this past weekends IPMS Jaxcon show in Jacksonville, FL. This chapter puts on a great show each and every year and this one had to be one of their best. 102 entrants with well over 550 entries on the tables. My pics. start with the autos but includes every other class as well. http://public.fotki.com/1320wayne/model_shows/2018-model-shows/
  11. I'm not exactly sure what you are asking? The items on my website are all resin cast items that I make. As far as this build, the wheels and chassis are 3D printed items purchased online.
  12. More done on the Camaro. Some early engine and trans work along with finishing the tires and wheels.
  13. Wow, what a mess. Now I can't even get registered. This isn't even worth the time anymore.
  14. Wow, what a mess. Bob's going to have his hands full. There's six full pages of newly registered users and at least 75% of them are from foreign countries posting sites and links to all kinds of garbage.
  15. I believe that this is the one your speaking of.
  16. Here's my 2cents. For smaller molds I use Lego blocks, like mentioned above. For larger molds for bodies I have two mold boxes that were created out of wood and designed to be disassembled after curing and re-used when needed. They sit on a wooden base and sealed to the base using tube caulking or gasket sealer.
  17. Go here to see what I offer and prices. http://public.fotki.com/1320wayne/holeshot-resins/
  18. More work done on the chassis and rear suspension.
  19. Excellent build. Love the finish and the machined wheels are superb.
  20. The blower and blower hat are just two items that I make and cast in resin.
  21. Yeah, I haven't added any clear coat yet. It's coming. And yes, this is a phantom scheme that I came up with.
  22. Dupli color Grabber Green engine enamel.
  23. All of the decals are now done and it's time to get started on all of the different sub sections of the build. I'm putting together all of the parts for the engine, suspensions and chassis work. Started on the photo etch brackets for the front and rear suspensions. Wheel are painted and once they dry I can add the decals, clear coat and get them installed in the tires. I'm seeing how much of my own resin parts can be used on this build.
