This is gotta be one of THE COOLEST things I've EVER seen done! You got talent up the ol wazoo!!! I am LOVEING this, please don't stop with the tute, it's going GREAT. I can only WISH to do stuff this cool! You see, YOU ARE a Auto REPLICATOR, and NOT just a builder!!! GREAT job,Mate. Are ALL you Oz guys THIS talented??? Check out Greg Armours big scale 69 Pro Mod Camaro. Wats in the water there????????? Love this thread!!!!!

    59 caddy

    GREAT lookin build, an your BMF job is outstanding!!!!!!
  4. It's comeing out beautifully so far. I'd like to know how you got such an authentic look to the colors on the console. And yeah, it might be a bit doin that dash and center panel, bit it'll be worth it, caz you got it down so far! GREAT job!
  5. The things we'll do for our grandbaby's,hu?? GREAT execution! Bet it's even cooler than she thought it would be!!!
  6. Could you fake one by useing a 48th scale rear end?? Doesn't look like it'd be too hard to scratchbuild.
  7. If they had they woulda sold as well as the Chevy an Dodge vans!!! Never could figger out why they did this in 20th scale instead of the MPC more normal 25th scale. GREAT job Eric!!!!
  8. WELCOME,Sandro. Hope you like it here. It's a nice place to live! THIS is ALSO a great place to visit! So, by all means, please pull up a chair an visit with us! Your home now!
  9. YES, DO NOT put ANYTHING on the BOTTOM TRAYS!!! It WILL melt! You did good with the extra height of the trays. I cut about 3 of my trays to be able to fit taller semi cabs. They work GREAT. Leave them overnite for enamels. I'm TOLD that laquers dry even faster! You'll LIKE useing it!
  10. Call the PO. THEY will tell you they ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE for ANYTHING after it's so called delivery.
  11. Mike, It's R&R's 71 Olds Delta 88. Don't look NUTHIN like this when ya gettem though! He did a GREAT job on this rascal!
  12. Man did this come out NICE!!!! Gives me inspiration for mine!!! Hope it looks as nice as this!
  13. AMT 65 Impala convertable kit! WITH the addon custom front end, no less! Good start, hope to see wat you do with this rascal!!!
  14. A 265 HEMI???? Gotta be an Oz car! They's the ONLY folks cool enough to build somethin like that! Came out nice, BUT, an this is JUST ME, the color tends to blend EVERYTHING together. A little bit of contrasting color woulda given it a bit more zip. But it came out REAL nice. Nice clean building style an very well done.
  15. Looks like a mini Chrysler. Gotta be Euro. But WHAT??????????
  16. Looks REAL good, especially for your first time! You sure got it down pretty good!
  17. Actually,Radames, it looks pretty good with the chopped windsheild! Nice job, looks good!
  18. I always remember wat "Lil John" Buttera once said about billet. "Just cut away anything that doesn't look like the final product!" He was building mirrors for his son's 69 Camaro, and they asked him HOW he designed and built them out of billet aluminum. We work in plastic, but the idea is the same. I LIKE your tools. Don't need or have use for a lathe though. Ain't got those types of ambitions!
  19. You found a buildable one in OZ????? Now THAT'S a story!!!! Wait a min.... did you get it offa the 'Bay??? Oh well, ANOTHER fine model I missed out on!!!! Gonna watch this one, I always liked that kit, even IF i didn't win it!!!!
  20. THAT'S an understatment! DOUBLE Wow!!!
  21. It's SOOOOO good, (How good was it,Johnny?) That I had to look close to see that it WASN'T real! The warehouse is PERFECT!!! There were areas inside my old plant that looked EXACTLY like your dio! It came out GREAT!!! The engine compartment looks REAL good!
  22. Welcome, Stephen! you'll like it here if you like model cars alright! We got some of the BEST builders in the WORLD here! we gottem from Oz, France, Austria, the Netherlands, Here, you name it, we probably gotta member there! Great place to learn, show your stuff, or just hang out. sit back and enjoy, your home now!
  23. Had doggies ALL my life, single and married, an i ain't never smaked one for bein a dog! They only tear up what they can reach, an I build onna table high enough they won't/can't jump on it(they're NOT cats!) My Bouve, Bruce, would set his chin on my table and watch, but since he went home, I've only had smaller dogs(Brucie pooped like a PEOPLE!). Tim, and Freddie, an now Raylan are/were too short to reach my workbench.But they sat/sit at my feet in my model room when I'm workin in there. Heck, they sit at my feet even when I'm NOT workin in there!
  24. Robt, is this a REAL truck from Oz??? Here, they make a 4 dr extended cab, but NOT a 2Dr version on an extended cab wheelbase. It's cool idea, but not really practical here. Is it an ACTUAL body design(I know they do do thinks differently over there) or just a flight of your own fancy? either way it's still cool!!!
  25. Looks pretty good ta me!
