  1. Striking color combination and great finish and trim. Like the day 2 street machine look.
  2. Beautiful looking paint color for this body style, remember seeing a similar color on many Fords from this era. The interior also has a great OEM look to it. Like the realistic looking OEM finishes on the engine and chassis.
  3. Great looking gallery of builds. I like some of the striking color combinations as well.
  4. Beautiful looking paint work and the colors all compliment the interesting body work. Really like the attention to the engine and interior detailing on these builds.
  5. Beautiful paint finish and color. The contrasting interior color goes well with the exterior. Like the stance.
  6. Great looking movie car. The interior seems to attract the eye. Well-built ride.
  7. Beautiful looking paint color and finish and body stripes. Like the realistic looking engine detailing. The rest of the fleet look similar in their finishes.
  8. Beautiful looking paint finish and the engine and chassis detailing as well.
  9. Good looking roof design.
  10. Looks like the plastic surgery was a success. Like the built Flathead idea for the engine.
  11. The hood shape is different between the '40 De Luxe issue and the '40 standard and '39 style hood.
  12. Try a pair of over-the-counter reading glass's that are designed for working with a computer screens. The ones I got were under $20 and have a filter that protects your eyes from the screens glare.
  13. I have shared this problem as well, but it is more of a case of getting bogged down in trying to get everything the way my original idea was. Sometimes it's because the parts just don't seem to want to cooperate with my original design or the old "Squirrel" syndrome. I have tried to overcome this by limiting myself to one build at a time, otherwise I'd have a half a dozen unfinished projects scattered all over my desktop.
  14. Great looking paint and like the stake bed.
  15. Our Lab, may he RIP, used to set near the table when we ate and would drool a puddle on the floor watching us. He wouldn't touch his food until we were finished even though we would feed him first. He would hold out for any grease or juices left over from the preparation of our dinner that my wife would dribble over his dried whatever they called his dog food.
  16. I'll bet they could sell a lot of kits of just the bed.
  17. I would be interested in following your build of this '68 Chevrolet kit. This is either a Biscayne or a Bel Air two door post car rather than an Impala. The reason is I ordered a new '68 Bel Air two door big block car and would like to build a model of that car.
  18. Great looking build. Remember renting one like this in the late sixties and took my wife and our two then very young sons on a two week tour up the west coast and back.
  19. Beautiful paint finish and color. Like how you used the kits custom grill and rear fenders. Great looking bed wood and engine detailing.

    72 Nova

    Great looking beater. Wonder if they could use that in the next Eddy Murphy movie?
  21. Beautiful paint finish and like the conservative color. The body trim is all cleanly done. Like the engine detailing and the wheels.
  22. I agree with everyone else on the body work. The body mods have sort of a Bugatti vibe with the spine running lengthwise over the top. Amazing metalflake paint and color.
  23. Are there any headers for say a big block Chevrolet in another kit that would work. They have very similar spacing and may be manipulated if needed.
  24. There was a time when some gassers would be of the show & go variety and such an interior would look great with a little angel hair and bright lights.
  25. Something came to mind reading the letter from the District Attorney. I think what he may be asking of you, or will ask of you, is your feelings about the accident and how you were treated and reimburse for any loses. This is something that is done when the person found responsible for damages and other violations is going to court to be prosecuted. What the DA will do is get a feel for the victim's feelings and how you and the others feel Mr. Guaman should be punished if found guilty in a court of law. Ya the DA will often use your, and others comments to decide what to ask of the Judge.
