  1. Thanks very much Alan ! I'm also inspired by the work I see Steve and others doing here and it's inspired me to try some new things . You should give it a try !

    I think it worked David , well done ! I like the Porsche engine and cool gauge pods !
  3. Beautifully done as always Jim !
  4. Beautifully done Anders ! If those are the kit wheels they look pretty darned good with a wash !
  5. Big Roth fan here , I'd say you nailed it ! The combination of parts sounds impossible but it all blends together very well , excellent work !
  6. Beautiful Charger JR , That black paint turned out super nice ! No stripes , great wheels , it's perfect !
  7. Persistance pays off . . . eventually , and you've got more than I do . Congrats , that's a great looking T-Bucket !
  8. Yep it's yours !
  9. Hey David , sorry I missed this one , it's one of my favorites ! I like that you were able to adjust the front bumper/grille upward to fill that gap , and moving the mirror really improves the look of the dash . I've had to fit tops to bodies like your doing and it's a time consuming task but well worth the effort , looks like you've got it handled. As for the track looking too narrow . . . I thought the exact same thing when fitting my '60 Dodge . After looking at tons of photos on the web and at some finished models I decided to leave it alone . The finished models look great and none of them appear to have the track widened , check some of Steve's models and you'll see what I mean .
  10. These original kits just have a cool factor missing in the new ones , great to see another one going together !
  11. Beautiful interior Steve , that color looks perfect ! The addition of the "Buddy Seat" really makes it stand out , along with your dash . . . love how you did the bezels !
  12. Thanks Chaz ! Thanks David ! Thanks much David !
  13. You're off to a great start , the red paint looks great !
  14. I've already commented how much I like the finished build but I never actually looked at your wip until now . My apologies , you explain the process clearly and it's very easy to see the work you put into combining all those spare parts . . . Well Done !
  15. I think it's amazing that you took those blocks of plastic they called the suspension and made them look like a real C4 suspension , Great job Jim ! And the time you spent spraying spoons is gonna pay off , that color looks awesome !
  16. Yes I can schedule a pickup and before I leave at 6am Monday morning I place my packages on my open porch in full view from the street and unprotected from the morning thunderstorms we have here almost daily . Then sometime around 2 or 3pm the postal carrier will pick them up , if they're still there . It would be nice but not everyone can take advantage of this service .
  17. Now that you've all seen the parts how about the completed interior ? I sprayed some more semi-gloss on the seats and couldn't resist putting it all together for some more pics !
  18. Thanks carl! Thanks Jim ! Thanks Bob !
  19. Yep . This being my first attempt at something like this was a learning curve and I'm really looking forward to doing another one !
  20. Nice !!
  21. When I sell on Ebay I always end the auctions on Friday night . If you pay right away I print a label on Saturday morning and plan on taking to the Post Office on Monday , that's only three days . If I sold multiple items and one buyer doesn't pay until Monday or Tuesday , then I take them all to the Post Office on Wednesday . . . your item just sat for five days . If I have several packages to go on Monday I'll do that but if only one or two it has to wait . Sorry but don't blame me for only wanting to make one trip to the PO , it has nothing to do with waiting for the payment to clear .

  23. Thanks Steve , definitely learned a lot doing it this way ! If I could do it again I'm sure it would be better .
  24. Thanks Mike !
  25. Thanks David !
