  1. Very nice work !
  2. I wish you well. I have quit no less than 3 times myself.
  3. I can see it.
  4. Getting in a little deeper in this thing . There was a fairly big gap when I set the trunk lid in place . I have added a strip of sheet plastic ( still needs trimming ) to tighten it up a bit . Also I am going to try and get the engine pictured in the engine bay in place of that lump of plastic the kit came with . Some modifications will be needed but ain’t it always . Seems I will also need to modify the body for the larger rear tires . I may have to make some fender flairs . I did modify the rear end and sucked the tires in as far as I could but it was not far enough . This will not be a replica of the real car .
  5. Here is the highly detailed engine included in this kit
  6. Really does look nice. Is that a Dalphine in the back ?
  7. Really ? I just got a letter asking if I wanted to subscribe again.
  8. Thanks Carl buddy !
  9. Thanks guys. Yes there seems there was a version of this kit that was motorized. This on is not. The engine in this kit is a joke ( photos later ). I will either try and adapt another engine into it or I will simply glue the hood closed. The kit wheels were not ever on the real car that I know of. No photos found to support those kit wheels.
  10. The included wheels did not match the box art or actual car so I guess changing is no big deal.
  11. Thanks Randy. It's the color that pulled me in on this one. I have their Mustang Pro Street that is the same color. These are great in between more detailed and time consuming projects.
  12. I hear what your saying I have a couple of the Sunny kits as well as many others and i don't want it to build I want it for my unbuilt Cobra collection. I have worse kits than that one. ?
  13. Vintage kit that appears to be pretty simple and less detailed than you might expect . This is a 1/20 scale kit so I hope it’s ok that is posted here . The kit tires in the kit were unusable as you can see . I purchased some others I plan to use but will need some mods I’m sure . I have seen photos of this car in white and like a candy blue . Not sure I will worry about what color I use .
  14. Finished this up a bit ago . Some minor problems but nothing major . The paint on the body is pretty good . Doors don’t close quite as good as I think they should . I think the headlights are a bit small but I didn’t have anything better . Also no tai light included so I will have to did in my parts to find a pair .
  15. I will order one just to have it.
  16. Thanks guys. I forgot I even built this truck. Bill I believe I used Testors Mystic Emerald green.
  17. Thank you much fellows.
  18. Sweet looking model.
  19. Looks darn good !
  20. Looks good, well done !
  21. This arrived today .
  22. Jeremy. Which kit has those little sport bikes ?
  23. Looks great, well done !
