  1. I started this kit a few months ago and put it on the back burner to finish a funny car. I own a 1:1 '04 GTO so if you need any reference pics, let me know. Here is what I have done so far... I cut the 4 tabs off the wheels and added a styrene ring so the rims would fit some Bridgestone Expedia tires, and shortened the front struts to lower the car. Your paint job looks great.
  2. Thanks guys for the info. I appreciate it. I plan to build a Joe Amato Tenneco car using Slixx decals.
  3. When did top fuel and funny car builders start using the Kobelco blower and carbon scoop? Would it have been used on a '98 top fuel car? I appreciate any info.
  4. Looks really good Tyrone. Bring us more.
  5. I think I saw some gas leaking out the bottom........
  6. Another quarter mile winner.
  7. Looks great. Will this be a replica of a real car?
  8. Love this build Art. Your work is exceptional. Using real springs like that make a big differnce. I'll have to look for some.
  9. I agree with everyone. Great color, stance, interior, etc. Looking forward to more.
  10. Love the car Brett. I've always liked that flat finned style. I know what you mean about after mockup things not fitting the same. Expecially after painting.
  11. They look really good Brett. I love funny cars.
  12. Looks awesome John. What other gems do you have hidden away?
  13. Excellent progress Niko. Looks really good.
  14. The lazy Sunday afternoon update. I started the wheelie bars using Ted's instructions. The recommended drill bit really helps. Most of the rod ends I had to whittle a bit to fit, so now they don't need any glue. I also made progress on the fuel pumps. The first pic is a mockup without the lower plumbing. Another identical tube will be added next to it and both will have hose clamps on the red tubing. Thanks for looking.
  15. Super stuff John. It looks great. Looking forward to more of this.
  16. I love this so far. Lookin' forward to more.
  17. Awesome stuff on here. Here's my humble addition............. Frozono - love the Firebird Pro Stock.
  18. I vote for the hemi, too. I built the same kit to slightly replicate a 64 I had years ago.
  19. Good to hear you're doing better. The single piston unit looks great and now I know why they would use single versus dual. Hope you have more time this weekend to get parts painted.
  20. Looks really good. At least you didn't get one of the warped bodies like I got in the Remington kit.
  21. Lookin' great John. Your talent knows no bounds.
  22. You got me amped up Doc. Let the voltage begin.
  23. Excellent job. Love the detail and I was wondering about the fuel components, too.
  24. Looking good Brett. Real good. I will follow these.
