  1. Ahhhh...Charles - this was my stupid moment... now i know what you mean! I never took a thought on the transmission. There is no gearshift tower - thats a really good point! This kit has no. Is a automatic transmission possible? available? Thank you Alessandro!
  2. Thank you Terry and Kerry
  3. funy thing - my last built of 2012 also is the Z8, only red painted. Like your colorcombo with the red interieur. Give it a touch of classic. Nice stance Martin. Looks like you lowered it also?
  4. Thank you buddies, Thank you for comments and nice storys. always funny to hear from "storys, the life told". because such trucks i never saw in my life. Never in germany - think they change them all 5 years to have no old looking trucks... Charles, can you explain for me? I dont understand what you mean.
  5. Beautiful old policecar - like it.
  6. Awesome truck. This color is beautiful.
  7. This diorama is absolut awesome! A great view, think, i am watching from above. Wow, thats great!
  8. like your first part also these cars - very nice, clean builts! Congrats Curt!
  9. I agree! I love your Futura and 58 Impala.
  10. Awesome kitbashing! Looks amazing. But why do you call it "Frustrated Towing"?
  11. Nice progress! Thumps up James!!!
  12. Very nice Al - beautiful color. Looks very good in my view. Well done! thank you for sharing this exciting T-Bird!
  13. Really cool dailydriver. Like the used style, well done! and that work in 10 hours - amazing.
  14. Wow! THAT is a really cool idea - your "work in wood" is fantastic! Love it! So, for covers i take a tissue or napkin, cut it into the size i need. Than i take a mixture of water and wallpaper paste, soaking the tissue or napkin with a brush. At least, i put it careful on the model "in place" and let it dry. After it is dry, you can pull it off and brush it in each color you want - but don't take waterbased colors. Water it softes again!
  15. Congratulations Roger to your son! Nice "machines" you've built. They are looking very good. Can smell the rubber here...
  16. Really, really cool builts - all of them. Very clean Mustang! But, i am in love with your Ford Vicci ...man, what a beauty...
  17. Looking good! Where is this "Taxi"-stuff from?
  18. Really cool Chuck! Like that rusty thing on wheels
  19. i like it! The color looks good on it. What about the wheels? Are they in the kit? Is it possible, to make a closeup from the enginebay? I have both following generations of the esprit in my shelf - like the style of them.
  20. I love those old Wolf Countach. Fabulous car. The only mistake are the windows - but as bad as you wrote, they didn't look. In my view, it looks good to the Countach - mysterios.
  21. Hi Geoff, i know - we should reed MI-NI and the engine 998. In fact, it is not correct on this plates. On other plates, the have also veiled the Messages : Austria (Decal 40/41) W (Vienna) perhaps with the hidden Year (?) 2(Feb)64. and the engine 998 Belgium (Decal 38/39) COO>per< - and the engine 998 Netherlands (Decal 36/37) the Year? 64 - MI>ni< - why the "12"?, but the combination '64-MI-12' is registration after 1973 France (Decal 34/35) the Year? 1964 M>ini<C>ooper< "12"? Italy (Decal 32/33) the engine 318998 and MI>ni< aka Milano - what a fluke - could this be??? Only Switzerland has no obvious system... Geoff, are you sure, that the GB-plates are correctly to the Mini? That would mean - if i am right - that the first registration on the basis of the plates are (Decal 28/29) 'C' = 1965 , or (Decal 30/31) 'D' = 1966? And they have to often the "64" on the other plates...i understand your Point with the 'D'. very complicated and mystical all ...I am not familiar with the details of the mini, so i am not to determine the year. But thats all supposition Ha - i think i know, what the "12" can mean: the year of the kit! 2012! Thats funny.
  22. Sorry for late answer. Thank you Gerry. You're right - i forgot the parachutes while i loked, were i can fi it. I thought about the place of the "licensplateholder", but i looked "not good". The fluted rocket tips on the back could be where packed 'chutes in - thats right. Thank you George! My first thought was, to take a full glue kit. One gluebomb and some more parts of a second Turbine, were the body is broken in the bo. Also i thought to lengthen the front of the body, to get the wheelbase from the funnycar underneath the body. The "easier" way was to take the rest of my Turbinecar Station Phantom (yes, the snapper kit #EZ-101) and shortened the frame to the wheelbase of the TC.
  23. Thank you Gregg for show us the difference between the Revell and Tamiya kit. now i am looking forward for teh "side-by-side"-pictures of them. I was asking my self, why the bring out this kit, while Tamya has one a looong time... But now, it seems to be a good one in my view. Christian, did you mean the German Licenseplates? They are completely wrong! On this kind of letters and plate (befor we get the European plates withe the blue corner) there were NO Letter "I" available on the Plates, right the "minus"! Only a kind of cities had left from the "minus" the Letter "I" - like SIG for Sigmaringen (my hometown) or KI for Kiel, but never on the right side. To read it as a "1" was the reason for that. Why they (Revell of Germany!) couldn't make that right - i dont know and it is incomprehensible for me. Its not the first kit, they have done it wrong.
  24. Thank you all for comments! Erik, the Fujimi also has a engine, but there is to cut off the hood. But the Tamiya is a class better in details under the hood! Perhaps, i catch one and build it as civilian car. On this, i had to screw (?) the doorlines on both side, they were not seen after base coat... If you always build american 60's-70's cars, you cant believe, that they are the same scale - it is really really small. But i love it, had much fun to build it.
