Salvino's JR - '71 Petty Plymouth
TooOld replied to TooOld's topic in WIP: Stock Cars (NASCAR, Super Stock, Late Model, etc.)
Thanks you Jim , I appreciate that ! It's kind of subjective . . . I feel some of my simpler builds are much cleaner and look nicer . -

Thanks very much Tim , I'd like to do another one too ! Not with "all" of the extra detailing but definitely upgrade the chassis and suspension , the Salvinos body is super nice but the rest of the kit is just a generic copy the original MPC kit . -

Very cool Bill ! I read your build up and I like all of the work you put into making Hot Wheels replica . The wheels and redlines are the finishing touch , well done !

Finally have the engine and radiator installed , I modified the radiator so that the upper hose is on the correct side . There are two sets of radiator hoses in the kit and neither upper hose was even close so I made my own out of solder , one of the lower hoses was close enough to use . I also finished the oil lines , battery cables , and miscellaneous wiring . Whew ! -

Dang Pierre , you've taken a very nice little kit and turned it into a real masterpiece ! Definitely the best build of this kit I've ever seen , congratulations ! -
Absolutely beautiful Chevelle , well done Tom ! I've overlooked this kit but you've sold me , I'm getting one very soon !

I agree that's a great color especially with the gold wheels , nice work Tom !

Very cool idea and very nicely executed , great work Tim ! I always thought the '68-'70 non-'bird made a great looking race car . -

Thanks Pierre ! The fittings are really easy to make but look more to scale than most I've seen used . Start with a piece of 24 gauge wire , strip the insulation , and paint a collar with aluminum paint . Then you can bend the end as needed before gluing it in place , the small aluminum hex nuts are from RB Motion . -
Chaparral 2D
TooOld replied to Pierre Rivard's topic in WIP: Other Racing: Road Racing, Land Speed Racers
Maybe not perfect in person but it looks amazing in the photo ! I have a couple of those weathering sets , I need to start using them more often . -
Chaparral 2D
TooOld replied to Pierre Rivard's topic in WIP: Other Racing: Road Racing, Land Speed Racers
Yep that works ! Maybe a little black paint to complete the missing parts of the 6 and 5 . And the rear screens look good to me the way they are now . You could try the Tamiya weathering powder but I'd be worried about it getting into the black wash . . . maybe practice on something similar first . -
The '68 and '69 Vettes are my absolute favorites and yours is excellent , great job !
-
Man that's pretty , especially with the white interior ! The trim work looks near perfect too , well done !

Great looking 442 , excellent job !
