  1. Beautifully done Garry ! That's about as nice as it gets !
  2. Beautifully done Tim , looks great in silver and black ! I built a couple of these when they first came out . . . I was maybe 14 or 15 and yes they were a challenge but maybe we didn't know any better .
  3. Ron was a master at Box Art Builds especially these early AMT kits , he also built everything from stock to customs to all forms of race cars . Unfortunately Ron passed suddenly in July of 2021 from non-covid related causes . . . he is greatly missed .
  4. Lookin' really really nice Craig !
  5. Cool looking Pair ! It's nice to see the tractor built right out of the box instead of weathered like most people build it . . . I like it !
  6. Looking at all of the tiny pieces I'm surprised you have any hair left at all ! Very realistic model , great job Chuck !
  7. Wow that's pretty cool ! Super clean and just plain beautiful !

  11. forward_resin on ebay has American Torque Thrust wheels in 1/12 scale . I've been buying from Casey for years and the quality is A+++ ! Casey was a moderator here for years and is still a member so he's always easy to contact . https://www.ebay.com/itm/324228748402?hash=item4b7d8a1472:g:YAsAAOSwesVbPpuH
  12. Thanks much Dave ! I've seen your posts urging Atlantis to reissue the Honest Engine , I sure hope Peter listens and that they discover the molds are in their possession .
  13. Thanks Ken ! Thanks Rick , same here !
  14. Wow that's gorgeous ! Beautifully done Tim !
  15. Beautiful Europa , great job Mark !
  16. 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 !
  17. 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 !
  18. 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 !
  19. Pretty cool ! Always wanted one of those . Is yours an original or one of the reproductions available ?
  20. That's one sharp looking Chevelle , well done Rodney ! I also remember drooling over these in the AW catalog back in the 60's .
