  1. I think the bare metal would look fine. Others may disagree but I don't see a problem with that at all.
  2. Thanks Harry. Ya know I have over 650 scale Cobra's. Red, blue, yellow, white ect. but, no Root Beer colored ones. Now I have one ! : ) BTW your Jag looks great !
  3. Thanks for the kind words fellows.
  4. Looks great !
  5. Thanks Jim.
  6. I'm just going to wait and hope for the best. When they come. they come. 15 bucks ain't going to hurt.
  7. One of those VW's on ebay now for 3,250. 00 dollars. I have seen some listed for over 8,000.00 .Can't say if they sold.
  8. Did you ever see what one of the Hot Wheels VW Beach vans with surf boards go for ? Yikes !!!
  9. I have not received my tires as of yet either. Send him an email from another address and say you want to place and order and maybe he will answer ??? I just wish he would tell us if it will be months or whatever so we won't wonder what's happening with our orders.
  10. With the Cobra being done I thought I would start this one. Thank you to all the members who helped me decide what P4 kit to buy. Does not have any engine but does have some PE parts. Me and PE parts never have gotten along too well but I will give it a try.
  11. Thanks guys. I can't vouch for the accuracy of the kit to the real Cobra but all in all I don't think it's a bad kit.
  12. Thanks guys. First time I used this color and I really like it. I will use it again.
  13. Thank you very much fellows !
  14. Finished this one up this morning. Fit was pretty good until I got to where I had to fit the body to the chassis. That was a bit rough. I striped some of the chrome. The body needed a lot of clean up . Actually could have used more. Looked good in primer but showed some spots that could have used more work when I hit it with the dark color. Color is Root Beer. Made a distributor and coil ( don't laugh ). The interior is done in Ivory. I used black flocking on the interior and self stick felt in the trunk area. I wired the battery in the trunk. The stock roll bar was way under size so I made one from plastic tubing. All in all I think it turned out ok, not great but ok. Comments pro or con are always welcome.
  15. I got another one of these for the Cobra collection. Not to play with. The car is pretty detailed and it was a cheap ebay buy. I may use this as a test for a paint job I want to try.
  16. Love it ! Where's the model replica ? : )
  17. Tough looking 32.
  18. Very nice model.
  19. There sure was some works of art on display .
  20. I had to miss it also as I was in California ( San Diego ) . Looks like we missed a good time. Next year ???
