  1. Sharp looking Olds Scott ! Love that Lime Green paint and those Pegasus wheels just look great on everything !
  2. A real classic Ed Roth kit , aren't we lucky to have Atlantis reissuing all these goodies ? Looking forward to seeing your take on it !
  3. Great save David , they both look great !

    '70 Cuda

    Really cool looking 'Cuda Steve , and of course it's a real model ! What type and color paint is that , it looks great !
  5. 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 .
  6. Another great kit that is seldom seen built , pretty cool that you still have one from years ago ! I haven't built one but I've bought a few of the recent reissues mainly for the skeletons and other bits and pieces , I may rethink that and build one !
  7. This is one of those super fun kits that we rarely seen built , well done Bob ! Your gruesome detailing makes it one of a kind !
  8. 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 .
  9. 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 !
  10. Really sharp color and very nicely detailed ! I agree those Cragars add a nice 70's vibe to the look .
  11. Great colors John , I really like that look ! Well done !
  12. 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 .
  13. Another winner Bob ! More great paint work and I love the polka dots ! PS - I sent you a PM
  14. 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 .
  15. Now that's a beautiful Chevelle , it sits just right and those colors are gorgeous ! Excellent detailing of the engine and interior !
  16. That's a real eye catcher , those colors really compliment the chrome perfectly ! Great job Ken !
  17. These were great looking little cars and you did an excellent job , the colors and details look perfect !
  18. 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"
  19. 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&amp=&crid=35X0U4K2PBJHM&sprefix=chartpak&th=1
  20. I've been doing many Matchbox scale cars too , fun to do and they don't take up much space !
  21. 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 .
  22. NICE !! Right out of the box it's a great looking dragster , very well done !!
  23. 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 !
  24. Ooooo that's a real eye catcher ! Really really nicely done !
  25. USAF Veteran here , it was an honor and a privilege . Here's to all the other veterans out there !
