  1. Looks great. I like how you modernized to look, much more interesting now than the way the original looked.
  2. The body on this looks real solid in the pictures. The Bumpers and Grill my need a little chrome work but other than that the trim looks good. I understand there is a big parts supplier support for these cars as well.
  3. Looks more like an inner wheel housing based on the kits I have built.
  4. Very clean looking, nice shade of Blue. Nice interior color contrast. Sort of a "sleeper" Z-28, no stripes.
  5. The glue looks almost like Elmer's Glue to me. You might try soaking the body in water for a time.
  6. Great looking finishes and the interior especially.
  7. I like the realistic weathering on the finish. Your setting backgrounds really compliment the look as well. Look like a really well worn work tool.
  8. Beautiful looking Black paint job and the perfect stance for this.
  9. Hard to believe this is the same model. Beautiful looking paint finish and color. I like the Drag Racing theme.
  10. Very cleanly built. I like the showroom look.
  11. Beautiful looking Boss Mustang. I like your detailing ideas for fender bolts and will have to try that at some time. Your detailing of all the trim on this is very cleanly done. Thank you for the tips on taking pictures, I like the reflective effect the best.
  12. I would give the body a coast of gloss clear.
  13. I have gotten some really fine hooks at JoAnns in the past. They are in their jewelry dept. They also make good hooks and chains for the tail gates on old pickup models. They are stiff and not easily bent, and they have a lot of tools designed for working with jewelry .
  14. Beautiful looking paint and finish. I like the contrast between the body and the fenders. These look best with the engine out in the breeze anyway.
  15. Great looking color and finish.
  16. Don't know how long this has been sitting but the fuel tank may have a lot of bad gas and what ever else that can clog up a fuel filter and the carb. even if you put fresh gas in the tank.
  17. Very clean looking build. The paint colors have a great OEM look along with the interior. The chrome wheels look good on this.
  18. Beautiful looking Mustang. Great paint and I like how you did the chassis details. The interior really stands out against the body color.
  19. I would but I no longer have any white belts for my sans-a-belt paints and I sold all the old gold neck chains so I wouldn't have anything to wear.
  20. One thought on connections. You could make a hoke out of some very fine wire for the center of the Hood. You could do the same and drill and anger them thru the Bumper or even run the thread or floss thru the Bumper and knot it on the back side. The Hood would need to be held in place on the back side by either the Hood Hinges or some other mounting so when the front bungee is in place the Hood doesn't flip up but can still be removed for display.
  21. Youi might try some Dental Floss for the Bungee cord.
  22. P{lease go and get this checked out ASAP. As others have mentioned there is a lot of posable injuries that you don't feel at first. Tomorrow is when it's really going to hurt.
  23. They say that a shiny black car hides no sins and this one proves it. The paint looks like it's still wet. Great engine detailing as well.
  24. Great looking Kustom body work and I like the paint. I wouldn't normally think of a two tone '40 but this really works well with everything you did to the body. I especially like how you worked in the continental kit. Very smooth flowing lines on the body design.
  25. Well since it's 40% off Monday I beat feet to the nearest Hobby Lobby hoping to get there before all of the other treasure hunters. The first stop I got "The Racers Wedge", almost picked up the Revell '70 Chevelle SS396 but I have a couple already. Drove on to the next store and found the Round 2 Impala 4 door hardtop. I left one on the shelf for anyone else that might have missed this when first released.
