  1. Beautiful looking Patina finish's never thought you could call a rusted out old truck beautiful, but to make it this realistic isn't easy.
  2. Great looking body details. Like the lighting and all the emblems and markings on the body.
  3. Great looking color combination. Like the engine detailing as well.
  4. The bright Yellow shows off the body lines and the finish looks nice and smooth. I think "Hard to Handle" has the right idea as to the engine mounting issue.
  5. Beautiful looking finishes and clean looking trim. Always nice to see these as they were when new.
  6. Great looking Porsche. The time you get to spend with your daughter, Priceless.
  7. Great looking Hot Rod. Like the color and the finish. Clean looking engine and front end.
  8. Great looking Tucker. Good color and finish.
  9. Both are great looking builds and nice remembrance of your two pups. The bronze paint finish is nice and smooth looking. These are great kits, and I would like to do another Aero Sedan soon myself. Like how you used all of the accessory trim from the kit. You mentioned ordering additional side trim. I have some if you need it. I used Plastruct half round for the trim and foiled it after paint, so I don't need it.
  10. Beautiful looking model. Looks like the 1:1 will keep you busy for a while to bring it to this level. The interior looks very realistic, and I was wondering what you used for the interior inserts on the seats.
  11. Beautiful looking paint and finish. Like the engine and interior detailing.
  12. Very clean looking build. The paint looks smooth, and the chrome trim all looks good. Remember when tuck & roll was a thing on the floors, not practical, but does look cool.
  13. Like the "Track Day" theme and the light usage. Lots of tire here. This exhaust and engine bottom weathering looks great as does the worn paint on the interior floor.
  14. Might be less expensive in the long run to buy one of the new reproduction Camaro bodies rather than trying to restore the sheet metal here.
  15. Hope you get this message on your phone. Me table is next to the DJ and his speakers. Glad I like Rock & Roll.
  16. Great looking distressed paint finish.
  17. Love the Blown Arden engine and the paint work and colors look great. So many great looking little details.
  18. Beautiful looking paint work and clean trim.
  19. The attention to the fine details is what really makes this build.
  20. Great looking finish. You must have a very steady hand to paint the red body stripeing.
  21. Great looking build. This is the Corvette they should have built at the time rather than waiting 30 years. Like the paint and the clean looking assembly.
  22. Great looking Golf and the color is what comes to mind when this car is mentioned. Like the bigger, wider tires and the cleanly done body trim.
  23. Great looking colors and quality paint. Beware, it can be a little harsh on our kits plastic. Double check on some spruce first just to be sure. Don't ask how I know as I'm still kicking myself for not doing just that.
  24. On the subject of in car CD players. This doesn't go back all that far, but our then new '10 Dodge Charger had an AM/FM stereo with the ability to download our CD's into the memory bank of the radio. We had all of our personal music at our fingertips plus Sirius Radio. This was traded for our '18 Charger that is supposed to have the double through down top of the line radio. The problem now is all we get is the AM/FM/ stereo and Sirius radio. The radio will tell you if a tune you liked is playing on another channel. Our '09 Jeep Wrangler radio would hold up to 6 discs plus it had Sirius. How many here remember putting that new high tech "Reverb Sonic" on your optional rear seat speaker, if you had a rear seat speaker?
  25. The editors at Hot Rod Magazine did an article on the Chevy II when they first came out. The put a small block V8 in it and mounted a Fuel Injection unit from a Corvette on the engine. They even had a picture of the car and engine on the cover of that issue. Could be the basis of the '63 Chevy II with F.I. story.
