Sharp looking Olds Scott ! Love that Lime Green paint and those Pegasus wheels just look great on everything !
-
Great save David , they both look great !
-
Really cool looking 'Cuda Steve , and of course it's a real model ! What type and color paint is that , it looks great !
-
Great Chevelle Jim , I really like that paint ! Most would say the flake is tooo big but I think it looks perfect , any smaller and it may as well be a solid color .

Aurora Chevy-Chaparral
TooOld replied to Brianl's topic in Other Racing: Road Racing, Salt Flat Racers
Well done Brian ! The Chaparral's were among the best looking race cars at that time and we definitely need a new kit ! I'd love to find one of these Aurora kits as they were the best detailed available . -
I never cared much for this year and body style but something you did has changed my opinion , I really like it ! Very well done !
-
Really sharp color and very nicely detailed ! I agree those Cragars add a nice 70's vibe to the look .
-
Great colors John , I really like that look ! Well done !
-
Beautiful Impala and in some great colors to boot , well done ! '59 and '60 are my favorite years . . . probably because I've owned several of both years .

I tried some and it doesn't melt the styrene at all , like Bill said it probably works for some things but not what we use it for . I was able to buy real MEK on line at this link but expect to pay hazardous shipping charges . https://www.sherfab.com/methyl-ethyl-ketone-1qt My guess is that any fiberglass or marine supply probably sells it .

Now that's a beautiful Chevelle , it sits just right and those colors are gorgeous ! Excellent detailing of the engine and interior !
-
That's a real eye catcher , those colors really compliment the chrome perfectly ! Great job Ken !
-
These were great looking little cars and you did an excellent job , the colors and details look perfect !

Thanks Steve ! For some reason I just never really searched for smaller sizes , but $20 is outrageous . Go to Chartpak Factory Store for normal prices on both the 1/64" and 1/32 " tapes . . . $8.85 per roll . https://chartpakstore.com/collections/graphic-tapes/products/bgcp1501 1/64" https://chartpakstore.com/collections/graphic-tapes/products/bgcp1501 1/32"

The narrowest Chartpak Tape available is 1/16" , you could buy it wider but I'm not sure how you would cut it . I can tell you that it will bend for gradual curves but nothing drastic , if you want small radius bends then buy the Crepe Chartpak Tape , the crepe tape bends very easily and stays put ! Only downside is it's thickness and it doesn't have a smooth finish , it's cheap enough you can buy a roll and test it yourself . Here's a link to Amazon . I bought both the Blk Crepe and Blk Gloss to compare them . https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01HDSCIL0?ref=nb_sb_ss_w_as-reorder-t1_ypp_rep_k0_1_8&=&crid=35X0U4K2PBJHM&sprefix=chartpak&th=1

I've been doing many Matchbox scale cars too , fun to do and they don't take up much space ! -

Awesome bike and it's great to hear from you Fabrizio ! I've always admired your fabricating skills and imagination , this Harley sure does present those skills for everyone to see . I sure hope to see more of your work in the future . BOB . -
NICE !! Right out of the box it's a great looking dragster , very well done !!
-
It may not be the bright orange you wanted but it still looks great ! I've built a couple of these kits but don't think I've ever seen one built using all the drag parts , it's really cool looking !
