  1. Looks just like some of the Pick Ups I and friends had years ago. We couldn't even afford the Earl Sheibe "any car any color $99.95" paint job.
  2. Great looking Rally Car. I still see these on You Tube Videos of Rally Races in Europe still.
  3. I like it a lot. Should you look in the rear view mirror and see this, you just know your going to get a ticket.
  4. Beautiful looking builds. I like the two tone paint job on the Convertible. This is motivation to build the kit I have been walking around for a couple of years now.
  5. Great looking restoration.
  6. Beautiful looking paint work. The Good Year Blue Streaks really make this look good.
  7. Thank you for the information, and more importantly the additional details on how to navigate the listing in and outs.
  8. Nice looking carpeting.
  9. Looks great. I'm starting to notice a lot of decommissioned Crown Vics on the road around here now.
  10. Good to hear. Stay well and feel free to offer any advice you want on anything you see me trying to make something out of it.
  11. I like how the Machine has turned out. Were you going to add and Red accents or stay as-is ? Would like to see more of the Imperial Convertible also.
  12. Great looking two tone. I remember when the Monte Carlo could be ordered with this and the same treatment in Blue, Green, and Silver two tones. Really makes the car standout in the crowed.
  13. That's to bad alright. I feel your pain. Putting the final clear coat on a couple of parts this morning, and then dropped them back in the "Purple Pond" for the third time. I just no longer can trust Model Masters Ultra Gloss Clearcoat to play nice with their own paints.
  14. Are you left handed ? My right wrist gets sore when I'm on the computer for a long time. This is where the wrist rests on the pad while I use the mouse. But yes it should be looked into by a medical professional .
  15. Sounds like I need to git an E Bay account to off some old kits I'm never going to get to. Some of these prices are startling to say the least. Far more than what I would get at the local Show & Swap Meet in the past.
  16. Maybe because I'm older but I find your Retro Look very refreshing. The colors work well together and a little chrome trim actually looks good.
  17. Beautiful looking Chevelle. Thankyou for the heads up on the rear fitment issue. The contrast between the interior and the body color looks great. Cleanly detailed thru out.
  18. Very clean looking build. I like the crisp edges on the paint and foil work.
  19. I tend to agree with everyone else on the use of a Spray Booth. In many ways it is a necessity to cut down on overspray and odors. I suggest focusing on the exhaust or pulling power of any unit. Filters, and how hard they are to change and their makeup as far as filtration is concerned. Lighting is another part of a booth to consider. You may already have a lamp of some sort that would provide the light you will want. There are many different free standing lights that you can put together or maybe the booth with the built in lighting may work better for you. Back to your basic question about spray cans & airbrushes, it really makes no difference which you're using. The main thing is to contain the overspray that is going to happen and get the fumes out of your living area. I will tell you this, it's a far cry from the old cardboard box I used to use with no exhaust.
  20. The Dandelions in the back yard are starting to look a little more inviting. You can hardly taste the Roundup.
  21. I'm going to have to pickup a couple of the full bumper kits. While I personally like the RS the best, most of the Camaros on the street were the full bumper non SS, RS, or Z-28 anyway.
  22. Looks great and I like your signature rusty look. You took two under appreciated kits and made one great looking little pickup. The "Tall Cow standing over a flat rock" thing, we are supposed to get that here tonight.
  23. I think it looks great. The dark body color and trim don't photograph well or show the body lines as nicely as some brighter color do.
  24. I learned a lot watching your build on this. Every little detail is so well done that it's hard to tell it's a model in most of the pictures. The color is one that Pontiac's looked the best in in that era also. Really shows your appreciation of the car.
  25. I like the Gremlin and I'm sure your friends Dad will also. Great gift since it sounds like he's a car guy also.
