  1. Wow that's gorgeous ! Beautifully done Tim !
  2. Beautiful Europa , great job Mark !
  3. Here's my version of the Tom Daniel Honest Engine , I always wanted to build one like this and really enjoyed it ! It's built right out of the box with only a few modifications as follows : 1 – Relocated the headlight to allow adding the record label . 2 – Added two flags to the front . 3 – Added a small chain to the whistle . 4 – Opened the coal tender so I could add the instruments . 5 – Mounted a custom bass drum skin in place of the parachute . It's painted in a Red-White & Blue theme using Tamiya rattle cans . I used gold foil from a Revell Lunar Module kit and printed some custom decals for the stars , nameplates , woodgrain , and Grand Funk goodies . The drum kit was made from scratch using sheet plastic and coated wire for the stands . I was also making some guitars and mics until I realized it was getting too crowded in that tiny car ! Thanks for looking , I hope you like it !
  4. Very sharp looking Woody , maybe the nicest build of this kit I've seen ! I'm not really a fan of 19"-23" wheels but those look really good on this . . . Well done !
  5. CB Freak is basically the same kit minus the engine with a Stroker McGurk figure added along with a CB and a bunch of antennas , technically not a Zinger but it does fit into your collection . I bought a couple a few years ago really cheap !
  6. Pretty cool ! Always wanted one of those . Is yours an original or one of the reproductions available ?
  7. That's one sharp looking Chevelle , well done Rodney ! I also remember drooling over these in the AW catalog back in the 60's .
  8. Now that's a Hot Rod Lincoln ! Well done !
  9. Nice job lowering the suspension ! I've lowered the rear that way but can't remember how I did the front , really like your idea and will try it in the future . Those slicks from the parts pack might be smaller but they do look great !
  10. Never seen this kit before . . . very well done ! Definitely an upgrade from the 60's Batboat .
  11. Very very well done !! Definitely a great looking airplane and your paint work is excellent !!
  12. Great project Justin ! Love these race cars and remember ordering from Auto World as a kid . I always saw Oscar at Daytona and spent time helping him with his Kidracer Formula 5 project . . . super nice guy !
  13. Great looking Spitfire ! Really like the look of that Apple Barrel Summer Sky .
  14. I've always liked the graphics on this car , beautiful job !
  15. Beautiful work !
  16. Great job on your '53 ! Lots of great detailing and very cleanly built !
  17. Thanks Steve ! Thanks much Larry ! Thanks Gary !
  18. Beautiful aircraft , and it looks especially nice in the PanAm livery ! A really nice looking kit , even the stand looks great ! Great job !
  19. Well done John ! Black with red interior always was a favorite of mine . You are not alone . . . fitting the windshield/dash/interior is a common problem .
