  1. Great idea for the transmission tunnel. I was going to suggest trying a partial picnic spoon for a firewall behind the dash.
  2. Beautiful paint job. Are you going for a Stock build or something with some modifications ??
  3. Looks like you have a few real nice old Corvettes to work your magic on.
  4. Those would make interesting seat belts.
  5. Besides what John said, that is a really nice looking build. If this is your first I look forward to seeing what all comes next.
  6. Great job on the ageing. Just a little rust thru here and there, the flat tires really look realistic.
  7. Sad to hear of any ones passing, especially someone who played such a great part in our community. Condolences to all of his family and friends.

    Beautiful build.
  10. Great looking coupe. What do you have in mind for the roof ??
  11. That is very SHINNY, and a perfect color. I like how you fogged in the bottom of the floor.
  12. That is a great looking build. I would never of thought of a light green color, but it sure makes this build stand out.
  13. Hang them from the rear view mirror instead fo Fuzzy Dice.
  14. Very cool idea. I like the concept of a V-12 in a big Bonneville.
  15. I made an assumption based on the photo. I just never thought of anyone putting a coffee cup on a model. It just didn't look that large in the photo. I hope your paint repair goes well.
  16. The significance was that this was the last year that Chrysler offered the high horsepower engines it was known for. There were a few limited editions here and there but nothing was as it was before. Between the Insurance Companies unbelievable insurance premiums often exceeding your monthly car payment, many of the potential buyers were of in South East Asia wearing green. As for the model it's self it a reissue of a kit from long ago that doesn't have the quality that we have all come to expect today. If none of that bothers you then go for it. I've seen some really nice builds using this kit.
  17. That is the way a Hot Rod is supposed to look.
  18. Beautiful. Great idea for the Boat Tail look. The engine idea is very original. Those old engines were torque monsters.
  19. Great looking build. Like you I like the Silver paint treatment. Your City background looks interesting.
  20. Your sink mark on the roof. Is the dome light on the interior side ? I have never had this happen myself so this is just a thought.
  21. You say nothing special, but that red really grabs your attention and then you see the extra work on the chassis.
  22. Good save on the paint. The light weathering looks like a 4 or 5 year old car that hasn't even seen a car port. Some times less is more.
  23. Beautiful build. the body is very nicely detailed.
  24. Very nice clean build.
  25. Got the parts I ordered 2/5 shipped 2/11 arrived 2/13. I had ordered the Ski Boat conversion and he thru in a Fuel Cell gratis. They are everything I had hoped for. So I hope his assignment goes well for him and when he gets back and is up and running I intend to get some additional goodies. Great quality castings.
