  1. Great looking work truck. Very clean looking paint and trim.
  2. Great looking pair. Great looking paint work and I also like the interiors.
  3. Great looking color and paint finish.
  4. Beautiful looking wagon. The paint is really special looking as is the interior. I like how you made it look like Chevrolet offered a factory two door wagon.
  5. Great looking paint and very realistic looking photos. Having owned one of these in white many years ago I have a soft spot for this kit and the way in which you built it this is a great representation of a base model '57 Ford.
  6. I like the smooth look of the way youi did the body and paint. I always fought the fit with the grill/hood/and firewall on this kit so the way you did the grill and hood combined looks like a good way around that. Great looking stance and the chrome wheels look good here. The paint looks great.
  7. One cool looking delivery. Star Resin offers a few sedan delivery resin kits. I have built the '56 Chevrolet on a Revell Nomad chassis and interior. I have he's '57 but haven't had a chance to build it yet. I would highly recommend either one of you're wanting to build one.
  8. That is just wrong on so many levels. While it looks well crafted, or photo shopped, doesn't mean that someone should.
  9. Never really thought about it, but it may help keep the etched trim from being knocked off with time and handling.
  10. Thank you for the info on the rheostat. With this I may be able to again use my dehydrator without fear of melting bodies and parts.
  11. My only suggestion on Dehydrators would be to get one with adjustable heat ranges. I have found out the hard way that many of the older plastic models had a lower temp at which it would start to change shapes. I lost most of the interior and the dash from an AMT '57 Bel Air done in the brown plastic. Best to go at a lower temp for a longer time kind of like a good steak.
  12. Great looking build and I like the finish like it just pulled of of a dirt road somewhere.
  13. Beautiful looking paint and great detailing on the engine. I like the look with the wheels and tires sticking out just a little.
  14. The duel rear wheels and tires would be interesting. I would widen the rear fenders to cover them. You can make some nice fenders out of old prescription plastic containers. The Distributor can easily be made out of scrape plastic, The wires came out of the caps, sometimes were called "a crab", four on a side and nothing to really show a firing order. Ford used a metal loom that ran along the top edge of the Heads with the wires exiting just above the cylinder it was too, A lot of that detail will be hidden and you may only need a few wires running to the metal loom and then a wire for each cylinder running from the loom to the spark plug.
  15. I like the Flathead idea, it somehow makes sense.
  16. Great idea for the front end and fenders.
  17. I like the way you did the trans. tunnel and firewall. Your Blue and White colors look perfect. WQe had an IH pick up that ran around town when I was young and it had this same color set up.
  18. Looks great I like the colored stripe on the side. Very nice engine detail.
  19. Great looking color and paint finish. I also like the updated engine. Very clean looking.
  20. The paint looks great. Looks like a ton of parts in this kit.
  21. I agree with you especially the C30 pickup. This may share some of the tooling for another version that was a GMC with a solid sided camper shell,
  22. This really has that used hard look. Very realistic looking weathering.
  23. Amazing little details everywhere you look. The longer I look at the load the more that you see.
