  1. Good stance. Looking forward to more.
  2. my layout idea.
  3. I like it. Looks like it was inspired by the ForPly car that Ray Evernham built.
  4. I was hoping for images that would show up on the page instead of links. Sorry about that. The interior will be a semi-gloss dark gray from a can I found at an art store - Montana paint company. They make a lot of different colors.
  5. Here is another start to a project that will someday be completed. I was inspired by the article in the March issue of Hot Rod that featured a road racing '57 Chevy. An awesome car. But I decided to go with a '72 GTO instead. The body is pretty thin plastic and everything had a ton of flash on it, but the body shape is good. I'm using Wide 5 tires and rims from Early Years Resin (causing me to narrow the rear frame), a Ford 9" rearend from Competition Resins, a 588 big block engine and T-56 tranny from VCG Resins, a gel cell battery, coil and oil tank for dry sump from Calnaga Castings, a Pro Tech distributor, and the body will be painted with Testors Copper metallic. The rear spoiler will be shaped, not just straight and a front chin spoiler will be added down the road. Thanks for looking. http://i1311.photobucket.com/albums/s666/56ChevKRy/1972%20GTO/DSCF0526_zps6fcc8167.jpg http://i1311.photobucket.com/albums/s666/56ChevKRy/1972%20GTO/DSCF0036_zps398c7a3e.jpg http://i1311.photobucket.com/albums/s666/56ChevKRy/1972%20GTO/DSCF0034_zpsfd2ddb66.jpg http://s1311.photobucket.com/user/56ChevKRy/media/1972%20GTO/DSCF0605_zps31e138a2.jpg.html
  6. John, it looks GREAT. You have done another spectacular job. You have never shown us a boring build.
  7. I agree. I'd like to see more and I want to drive it when it's done.
  8. I got the 588 big block from him and it is almost done. A very nice engine.
  9. Another great update Mr Sobak. I'm sure the finished piece will win.
  10. I agree, a nice solid start and I'm looking forward to what you do next. Keep going.
  11. Joe it's good to see your work on here again. I wish I had that much countertop room. I'm looking forward to the progress of this Camaro. I've been curious as to the quality of the kit. Your rim looks great so far. Can't wait for more.
  12. Looking really good so far Jason. Looking forward to more.
  13. Another good update Chris with great header advice from the crowd of admirers. Looking forward for more.
  14. Niko it is looking really good. Looking forward to more.
  15. Looking forward to more of this and the rust. The engine looks really good so far. I haven't done a ratrod yet, but I think it will be a challenge to balance the rust and new parts for the engine.
  16. Wish I could make it. I used to live in Utica, now in south-central PA. Please post pics afterwards.
  17. I agree, you did an excellent job.
  18. Personally I don't know if they're too big or just right. I'm sure your sleuth skills will find the answer. Looking forward to more.
  19. John you are very welcome and it is an honor to be a small part of one of your epic builds. Note- the Total Performance file I sent Gary matches the original logo a LOT closer than what I put on your proof sheet. I just wanted you to have a size-correct logo for mockup. Just wish I could see it in person. You do awesome work. The body stand looks excellent.
  20. Ok ? The paint looks great. The motor overall is killer. It's a model all by itself.
  21. Really nice. Very clean.
  22. You never disappoint us Dave.
  23. John - another home run, touchdown, hole in one, winner. And I'm sure Tommy Ivo will appreciate the statuette repair. It was good to talk to you today. I'm jealous that you have all that warm dry weather for painting cars. Again I wish I could go to the DSC to see all the great builds.
  24. Your usual excellent results Chris. I'm looking forward to more of this.
