  1. Very sharp looking little dirt track racer ! Congratulations on a job well done !
  2. It started as a Tom Daniel " Boss Bulldozer " snap kit I found on ebay . It's from 1972 and as far as I know it's never been reissued . When I got it there were a few pieces missing and broken . I made those and added Hemi cylinder heads and valve covers from my parts box . Here's what it looked like when I got it .
  3. Cool , Wild , and Cute . . . Quite a range of descriptions for a model ! Thanks James , Randy , Edward , and Bill !
  4. Excellent work ! That is a super looking car ! I bet we see more done like this .
  5. Very Cool ! ! ! Best looking Cougar II yet !
  6. They are beautiful models ! Your Fire Truck is excellent . . . nicest I've seen ! Where did you get the rear suspension in the Rodder's Journal version ?
  7. Great looking GTO ! I like the little details like the " Jacking Instructions " under the trunk lid !
  8. Really Nice ! Your engine paint detailing is excellent !
  9. Beautiful wagon ! The complete set looks excellent !
  10. Another beautiful Ford !
  11. Really nice job with the conversion ! And extra engine detailing isn't necessary , it looks great !
  12. Very nice looking build . I'm not a fan either , but your decal is very impressive ! A decal that large is difficult to apply without wrinkles and air bubbles . What brand of paper did you use ?
  13. I keep it laying flat in the envelope in my refrigerator . I have one sheet of BMF that is almost 2 years old and it works just like it was new . It had a few wrinkles when I bought it but I've found that they can be smoothed out when applying the BMF and they completely dissappear ! Of course I only do this if I really have to .
  14. Thanks for reminding me Alyn . There are some really awesome "in - car" videos at the link below ! www.rett.org/speed/speed.html

    Amt 62 Chevy

    Very nice ! Great color , it looks like you just painted it yesterday !
  16. FYI - The Summers brothers , Bill and Bob , set the land speed record for naturally aspirated piston engines in November of 1965 with the Goldenrod . A speed of 409.277 mph that still stands today !
  17. Beautiful model ! I rode one of these for several years and they are nice bikes . It looks like a really good kit , I need to get one .
  18. It must depend on the store and who orders the stock . Our HL has had the same kits for a year or more with very few changes . The only new releases I've noticed are the AMT " Double " kits . Whoever does the ordering must check the box " Reorder All " without even thinking ! Michaels is the same way . My LHS has new releases on his shelf within a week of when I see them on the internet . He's great !
  19. Perfect timing , I've been thinking about buying one of these kits too ! I really like what you've done so far and can't wait to see more !
  20. Awesome ! Love the engine and those four big pipes out the back ! It was worth the wait !
  21. Very nice ! Interior and engine detailing is great !
  22. I remember seeing a lot of Richard Carroll builds on the cover and in Car Model Magazine in the late 60's and early 70's . He always made custom "working" suspensions and cast his own tires . They were pretty amazing stuff ! The picture on that card is one of them , if you look close you can see how detailed the suspension is .
  23. Love that Blue paint ! Really sharp looking GTO .
