  1. Great looking conversion Tim ! I always wondered why more Nascar kits weren't built as street cars , seems like a no brainer to me . Thanks for sharing !
  2. Beautiful Coupe Tim , so much nicer than the Sedan body style ! I'm also appreciating curbsides much more as the years creep up on me .
  3. Great job converting to Hamilton's car , very well done ! Thanks for the info on changes you made , very interesting .
  4. That's cool looking , great job Tim ! Hard to see in the photo but do I spy a little roadrunner on the grille ?
  5. Looks pretty nice to me , that's actually one of the better resin wagon conversions I've seen for the Cobra ! The black breaks it up and makes a big difference , well done Ray ! Resin bodies are always hit or miss even from the same company , you never know what you'll get .
  6. Thanks Bill ! Thanks much Carl ! Thanks Phil ! Thank you Gary !

    MPC 57 Chevy

    Great save , it looks great !! I think the one's we do for fun seem to turn out the best !
  8. Thanks you very much Bob ! This was actually an easy one since I didn't have to spend tons of time scrounging for parts , it went together pretty quick !
  9. Same here ! My finished models are in sealed cabinets but when air freshener was sprayed near my workbench it damaged all of the chrome parts the same way as the OP is showing . It also did some damage to freshly painted parts but not as severe , I was able to wipe them down and polish the spots out . Ever since then nothing ever gets sprayed anywhere near my workbench !
  10. Really like that look and the green paint is gorgeous ! Nice work !
  11. That's awesome ! Love the clear hood idea and the cut down windshield , very well done !
  12. Thanks Jason ! Thanks Ray ! Thanks Robert ! It's a retooled Tweedy Pie released in the 70's . Thanks JC !
  13. I don't build many '32 Fords but I will just to use this grille , it looks really nice !
  14. Thanks very much Bob ! Thanks ! I haven't looked lately but I'm sure the prices are getting way up there . If you have a Tweedy Pie it's the same kit except for the wheels & tires , and I have a complete original decal sheet it you're interested . Yeah it definitely has the 70's look !
  15. Thanks John ! Can't believe you remember , it was at least 10 years ago ! Thanks much Joe ! Thanks you Mario ! The kit comes with steerable fronts .
  16. Beautiful Impala , the paint and detailing are superb ! Gotta love a 348 Tri-Power !
  17. Best version of that kit I've seen yet , great job !! They may be Sox & Martin colors but they sure look good on that Chevy II .
  18. Beautiful Shelby , the paint and detailing look excellent ! Well done Harry ! Just my opinion so don't take offense . . . it needs more rubber , those skinny tires just don't fill up the openings enough . Still it looks great and I'd be proud to have it on my shelf !
  19. This is an older build that I took new photos of for another site , I built it 10-11 years ago when I just got back into the hobby . This was probably my first attempt at running brake and fuel lines on a chassis . I also added a MAD distributor , brass screen to the radiator shell , some gauges , and replaced the kits rear tires with some from my parts box . Nice little kit , it's a 70's version of the Tweedy Pie with all of the fiddly little parts .
  20. Thanks Phillip ! They're a good distraction from from the more serious stuff . Thanks much ray ! Thanks Neal !
  21. Thanks Rick ! They're 2 piece plastic so I sanded the heck out of the . Thanks Joe ! Thanks Tony ! The AMT VW body is a bit larger and better detailed than the Zinger body .
  22. Sharp looking eliminator and in the perfect color ! Great photos too !
