  1. I'm late joining in , so there's not much else to say . A really great build . Good Luck !
  2. Looks Super Fine ! Good Luck .
  3. Andy , Like everyone else has already said , " Don't Touch It ! " . Put it in a nice display case , dust and all ! !
  4. Hi Everyone ! I just wanted to say Thank You for your kind words and encouragement . This was the first time I've tried posting a WIP and I had fun doing it . I also learned alot from looking at my own pictures . It's encouraging to receive comments from a group of such talented people . I'm trying to improve with every model I build , and I hope you enjoy seeing the results . Thank you again and talk to you next time . BOB .
  5. Thanks for the tip Bryan . I'll give it a try . It really wasn't as hard as I thought it would be . With a little more practice I think I'll get the hang of it . BOB .
  6. I've collected a lot of Cobra stuff over the years . My two favorites are a worn old hat and a polished aluminum diecast .
  7. Carroll Shelby was a true pioneer in motorsports . He loved his cars , and he eventually gave his approval to all of us who built replicas of his Cobras . He will be missed . God Speed .
  8. Nothing wrong with that 3-window . Didn't rushing things kind of take all the fun out of it ? Just like a lot of other things . .
  9. Robert , You don't have to move your bench outside , just get some more light to take pictures ! I hope this helps for now . It looks pretty cool ! The wheels and tires , and the stance is great ! Can't wait to see the engine sitting in place . BOB .
  10. Turned out great James ! The open rear window is a nice touch ! BOB .
  11. Every time I see this I like it more ! ! Guess I need to check back at the Cartoons contest and see what's new !
  12. I agree . That's a very sharp car ! It's going to look great when you're done !
  13. Just a quick update . Last night I spent a couple of hours with some BMF . I have tried it a couple of times on old bodies without much luck . Well , I think it turned out pretty good . . . not perfect , but for my first real try I'm happy with it . I've also finished the exhaust , complete with clamps ! They were kind of fun to make . Just need to finish the front suspension and the chassis will be done . Now some clear on the body , and final assembly . Hopefully this time next week it will be completed . I feel like I'm forgetting something . Next stop , " Under Glass " ! BOB .
  14. That's cool ! Which issue of the kit had those wheels ?
  15. Very impressive work , Jay . It takes the same patience to build a car as it does to build an airplane ! And you've got it !
  16. Yep . That's the one . If you have the '62 'Vette , look at the rear window too .
  17. That's really sharp ! I've bought four of these over the years and always use them for parts ! I think I should build one ! Nice job .

    Barris T Buggy

    Paul , That's pretty neat looking ! I've seen the kit many times , but never have seen one completed . I like it , and a Corvair engine TOO !
  19. Turned out great , Dave . Good things are worth waiting for ! Congrats .
  20. It turned out really nice Bruce . I was following your build and you did an excellent job ! I wouldn't worry about the stripe bleeding thru , most people won't even notice . Besides , you learned something , and that's always a good thing !

    '69 Chevy Nova

    Unusual color , but you more than made up for it with the detailing of this super looking Nova ! You haven't lost your touch .
  22. Another great build ! Really sharp looking . What color paint did you use ? I also have this kit , but was never too thrilled with the looks of the body compared to other Chargers I have . The Talladegas are even worse . Yours turned out just fine . Good job .
  23. Chuck , I found this in one of my parts bins . It might be close . Width = 2 .150 " Height = . 270 " ( .445 " in front of driver ) Let me know if you want to try it . BOB.
  24. Nice , clean build . Very impressive work . I like it !
