  1. Hello. I don't think I've ever made a thread before on here. Love all of your work!! Now, I tend to build on the extremely slow side. But here are two projects I have jumped on for right now. AMT Cameo I stretched the wheelbase here with the tail end of another Cameo frame. And chopped the roof. Also, cramming the recent release Steven's parts pack Allison engine. I couldn't figure a way to mate a rear diff to the Allison, other than butt it right up with the reduction gear. How should this be done? Any tips? Amt Chevy Cheyenne Now the other one. Actually a Jairus sketch inspired me to do this one. Jairus, if you read this, can you post a pic of that sketch please? It would be greatly appreciated. So, pretty much straight foward. Resin 4 door 72 Cheyenne cab, kit chassis, shortened bed.
  2. Ok, got 2 GTH kits in today from a tower;) Decal stripes are way better than the GT500; they have a nice metallic gold to them. Only negatives are, there was no decal for the center dashboard for the limited number and Shelby's signature. And the shifter is still for the manual. I think revell did right, Hertz shouldn't have made them A/Ts. Same engine, drivetrain, interior as 1st mustang.
  3. +1 for more Mustang variants. Howbout a convertible already? Bullit was an easy one.
  4. I disagree about the decal sheet. Revell has done much better on their own. The blue stripes are just awful. Does anyone remember how great the Shelby series one decals were? Metallic stripes! Not like the GT500 horrible color matrix setup. Anyone know if Keith Marks is doing a decal set for these?
  5. Stevens up and sold out of the GTH kits. And the GT500 is going fast;)
  6. Can't wait for the Hertz, especially! Last month's ad in the magazine(the other one) had the Hertz and regular GT500. So who knows. But all are welcome of course:)
  7. Ok ok...I'll post the pics in here too, to make it easier. Heh. You could have just asked me Bob:) I took these pics, so don't anyone think I went and stole them from the other forum;) Sorry I troll here more than post. I'm always happy to post wherever tho, if something new comes out. Hope this helps some. Right behind the D pillar kink is a little flash, with the remnants of the vinyl top that used to be there.
  8. Looks like a diecast.
  9. Thank you. They look pretty good man:)
  10. Cool, what did you use to paint the redline tires then?
  11. What wheels and tires are you using? I mean, where are they from?
  12. Got this one today:) The only bad part I've found is there is no "SRT" engraving on the wheels:(
  13. There were 2 different Dodge monster trucks at the LHS today.
  14. Got mine. They had a bunch at the store. Revell AG GTO, and the Lindberg dodge cabover/flatbed/40 ford set.
  15. Wow....I've never seen Lindberg kits at either 4 of my Wally's. And no Merc either. Even Steven's International doesn't have it at the store(LHS) yet:(
  16. Flippin $8!!!!! I need to go to my BigLots...!! Gees...that place seems to be a treasure trove! Thanks for the GREAT FIND!
  17. Great color combo. Yellow is a perfect color for this.
  18. Looks good. All that's missing is a Lightning. But you have the bodystyle at least. Keep up the great work!
  19. That's coming along pretty well. That cab looks alot better than the Topkick they produced. Where did you get the NWSL tools from might I ask?

    MY CUSTOM

    66 Volkswagon

    Very beautiful indeed! Really clean too.
  22. I think...is this what you are going to do with your hood? That's mine in the Plum Crazy with flat black stripes. Now that I think of it, I should have made a flat black panel on the hatch, like the Charger does on its trunk:(
  23. Yes I do! Thanks! Did you get this at a KB? They seem to have alot of Welly stuff. I've noticed mustangs there. But I think its the same old GT concept.
  24. The interior decals were meant to overlay each other to make up the Louis Vuitton print. I could never understand why Aoshima made them as 2 separate sheets.
