They sure looked pretty good ta me! Hadta look twice at some of them!

Mike,I am the LAST person to ask about THAT. BUT, Clay Jones, one of our brother modelers here, Posted a GREAT how to on posting pictures from your PB account.THAT should at least get ya in the ballpark. It's the FIRST thread in the "Tips an Tricks" section. It's pretty thorough, and it might help. Enjoy youtr stay here,Mike, It IS a pretty cool place! WELCOME! ;)

Mike, I have alot al freinds who do resin casting. It, in and of itself, are NOT that black magic a region that YOU couldn't do it. The problem is comeing up with an acceptable MASTER! ALL the guys I know can cast like GANGBUSTERS, the PROBLEM is, GETTING castable MASTERS! Just because it looks good to ONE person, doesn't mean it's ACCEPTABLE! I have done some that I've lent out as masters, and THEY still needed work. Nothing major, mind you, it LOOKED like it was supposed to, but it WAS missing the little Emblems and other little things that made it a 'Ready to cast master" The guys who DO cast these masters ALREADY have their hands FULL just tryng to CAST. Makeing the masters to CAST FROM, is even MORE time consumeing. If you could offer up a MASTER of those particular cars you mentioned, I'm SURE one of the resin casters here on MCM forum, would be willing to do it. Hope this helps.

John, You got it Bro!

John, I can donate the 49/50 grille for the nose if ya want it.

Well,it's a NICE one! Do it UP ,Daddy-O!

VERY NICELY done, Tom! I LIKE your take on the Buick side spear. The way the skirt comes up into the door! VERY stylish! Heck even the colors nice! Izz lookeeeen gooood! ;)

Ulf, it really just depends on what look your going for. The last one, with the Cragars on front an the Steelies in the back are more my speed. That's the look we tried for back then.(Late 60's early70's)

Matt, it's OK, Imma send ya some MoJo, Bro, you'll win one an feel better! Got this bad boy, FINALLY!!!

It wasn't MINE, but I remember as a little kid, we would pick cherrys up north in Travserse City. The migrant workers would come up from Texas an the south to pick. This one guy, Jessie, had a 55 Chevy 4 Dr. REALLY nice car, that pretty baby blue like color an white. Nice car. Anyway, he kept the rake in it by wedgeing up the rear of it with 2 X 4's, WEDGED between the rear axle and the chassis where it rose up over the rear end! Them things looked like they were 2 ft long, an the car rode WORSE than a truck on those dirt roads, but with those mags and chrome reverse wheels on it, it sure LOOKED COOL!!!!

VERY clean, and SMOOTH! I've got the little Buick version of this car, and just seein yours makes me wanna RE do it!!!! :lol: GREAT job!!!

No Doubt!!!!

Guy's, I've purchased from Crispy an Gregg and order my hoods from Drag City from there. It's easy. Alot of the stuff is REALLY reasonable too. Check 'em out, ya might find somethin yer lookin for! ;)

The guys like Art are WHY I stay . These guys are walkin encyclopedias of modeling! ALWAYS a pleasure ta hear the little stories BEHIND the stories!

Why'd ya move the steerin wheel of a GTO??? We din't get the cowl scoop though.

That first picture is the money shot!!! It actually looks like the real thing!!! Looks great John, as usual!

It sure does LOOK like the car in the picture, right down to the color! GREAT job!!!

Well Hot Dang James, THAT'S a cool twist off the norm! It LOOKS like alotta other cookie cutter chevy's. But you puttin a PONTIAC engine in it, an that 4 link, Well now, THAT's a nice change!!! Looks REAL good James, keep it up! B)

Mike-O, back in tha day, you'd be SUPRISED what folks could order on a Caddy! Ever see a Talisman? a full sized 4 door with length full center console an rear RECLINING bucket seats! Most expensive regular production Caddy we ever built. Man THAT was a ride!!! No sink or john, but just about everything else!!! B)

Hiway, that's the whole idea. i THINKS it's real but some won't. But it don't really matter caz it IS justa game. But i just think it LOOKS real so that's wut ah voted!!! REAL:lol:

real:)

WOW he did a HECK of a job on that rascal!! I really liked the bolts holdin the mudflaps on. That's one tasty lookin lil truck!!! Even the color combo is nice!!! :)

WOW, Bryce, that rascal is sure a streetstopper!!! GREAT color choice and NICE interior! Just a REAL nice build Daddy-O!

Don, if this is being put on by John wats his name, yeah, it'll have Barbie dolls a toy steel Tonka trucks an stuff, BUT it'll ALSO have ALOT of models there too! If i'm not mistaken, he's the same guy who does the Toy Shows at Toledo, an stuff. Yeah, it would be worth it to check it out. I'd go if it wasn't so far(I'm in Detroit), But in October, he'll be in Sylvanio,Ohio, along with the 31st or 32nd NNL'S THAT'S the REAL reason I go, the toyshows just an added treat, but the NNL'S are JUST TOO cool to miss! Gonna hook up with ALOT of old freinds this year again! ;)
