  1. Great looking work combo. Very real looking weathering.
  2. Outstanding, It looks like you could jump in and drive away.
  3. I think Chevrolet made the standard cloth seats in the Camaro look like that so they could charge extra for vinyl seats. If they had used the "Houndstooth" cloth from the first generation Camaro it would look much better. That said this does look like the standard cloth pattern for that model year.
  4. All great looking builds. You have been busy.
  5. They all look interesting and I wondered what happened on your Merc. 4X4.
  6. Very nice. Was this type of 3 wheeler typical in Europe at one time ?
  7. Great looking Impala. The exhaust is typical of the early 60's.
  8. Nice clean build. I like how you did the interior colors.
  9. Very nice. I had forgotten how good the old Johan Mo Pars looked. I'm personally a Chevrolet lover from way back so enjoyed yours.
  10. They look great with a lot of personality to each one.
  11. They all look great. The Roll Back is very interesting.
  12. Very nice. Where did you get the Ford sedan body?
  13. Love the early hot rods and dragsters.
  14. They are all done so well, it's hard to pick one as the best. But about that shinny Olds, WOW.
  15. Great builds, all very real looking.
  16. Beautiful builds. Not a subject seen very often. Great detail and colors.
  17. Really like your '09 Jeep JK. But it still has some parts from over there. The '10 Charger was built in Canada and has a maple leaf on every part you can see. My wife's new '14 Dodge Avenger was assembled in Sterling Heights Mi, with an engine built in Mexico. 76% U.S./Canadian parts content according to the window sticker. You have to remember that the old Chrysler Corp. is now a part of Fiat of France. All very confusing.
  18. Looks good so far. Back in the day a lot of guys would use a '56 Ford pick-up grill. You may or may not want the V8 emblem. The grill has a little bit of a "hood" over the head lamps. If you use the custom grill with the canted quad head lamps, you might try trimming and bending the front fenders to match.
  19. Excellent job here. Very informative also. Look forward to watching this build.
  20. Very nice. Now I know its possible to build I will have to build the one I have.
  21. Very cool, well done.
  22. They both look great. I think the seats were from the '50 Ford Convertible kit.
  23. Very creative, like the engine a lot.
  24. GUY HAS MORE $$$$ THAN SENSE. Would love to get that engine and trans., if its still any good, for my '10 Charger RT. The thing is with that hard of a hit he could very well of damaged the engine and in turn the transmission.
  25. I think the Tamiya color your looking for is TS-92 Metallic Orange. I just used this on a '57 Ford and loved the way it turned out. Its a one coat type paint and I used Tamiya white primer. You could paint a couple of picnic spoons with white, silver, or gold to see which would give you what your looking for. Another option would be Testors #1831M Fiery Orange. It is a very high metallic almost metal flake like finish. Hope that will help.
