  1. No, I forgot to take them with this build. cage and chassis are gloss black with flat brown window net. btw, your wheels/tires I forgot will go out this weekend.
  2. monogram donor kit with wetworks decals and powerslide tire decals.
  3. great build Michael, nice and clean, the way a tuner should be!!!
  4. just wanted to compliment everyone on their builds, they look great!!! If i didnt have a few too many NASCAR projects I wanted to complete, I'd would've pulled out a Super Stocker and joined...
  5. WetWorks decals, Tamiya TS-26 Pure white and Tamiya clear. Powerslide tire decals. First time using WetWorks decals, and I am pretty impressed. Needed a little setting solution for the contingencies behind the front wheels to lay down, but otherwise decals worked flawless. hope to have this one finished tomorrow or monday...
  6. thats looking great Michael!!!!!
  7. I'm jealous.... My local Michaels never have kits on clearance !!!! but when I was in Louisiana, i picked up a Revell Mr. Norm's Dart GSS for $5, this was a few years ago....
  8. $3.69 - $3.76 a gallon for 87 here in vegas, depending on station location bought my wife a brand new '07 Dakota 2wd quab cab with the 4.7 V8 last june when gas was ONLY $3.25 a gallon...traded in an '01 grand prix gt that got 25 mpg avg with 140,000 on the clock. truck is averaging 15mpg. I'm starting to regret that decision, especially considering we are planning a 3000 + mile roadtrip/vacation in July!!!! I think it may now be cheaper to fly roundtrip to Oregon and rent a car!!!!!!
  9. how long should i wait after spraying to pull the tape???
  10. looks absolutely fabulous David.... I always enjoy your WIP's......
  11. anyone use future for sealing tape lines when two-toning or painting trim?? I was thinking about that the other night, and wondered if anyone had done it? also, and adverse reactions with certain types of paint when painting over future??
  12. mmmmm, I'm drooling already!!! I see atleast 4 in my future...
  13. LVZ2881

    Bmw M1

    looks gorgeous!!! is that a resin kit, or the RoG kit???
  14. Michael, any tips for applying the Future?? I just bought my first bottle last night, but still need to go to homey depot for a foam brush to try it out.
  15. hmmmm, a Yenko 427 nova, maybe!?!?!? just grab the big block, radiator and rims from the yenko camaro, make new decals, and viola!!! I can dream cant I
  16. great review Ron.. my opinion is that while Revell did not hit a home run with the mach 1 update of this kit, they should proud to be standing on 3rd after hitting a triple. a home run would be the afore-mentioned shaker scoop and stock valve covers being included. I picked up a couple already for myself, and need one or two more...
  17. Revell is considering making a CoT in the future, but as of right now, they dont make one, only way to get a CoT is in resin.
  18. great build!!! Junior is my favorite driver as well.. you gotta love Mike's powerslide decals!!! I have those decals to eventually build that car myself. as far as the solvaset, once you've used it, you'll wonder how you did a nascar build without it !!
  19. no engine pics, but got a couple chassis in progress pics: I didnt paint the rear trunk area, because it cant be seen
  20. Revell donor kit with slixx decals. chassis and cage painted with homey depot gray and clear, powerslide tire decals. plug wires is only added engine detail tamiya TS-26 pure white and clear.
  21. 1. My uncle Dan, he got me into this hobby ( of course my wife has a few other choice words for him ) 2. Tim Boyd 3. Drew Heirwarter 4. Marc Nellis ( simply because he builds some bad-ass Pro-Touring cars that I would love to build). tough to narrow it down to just 4, as I could easily add Bill Geary, Ismael Gonzalez, Mark D. Jones, David Thibideau(sp??), and others to this list.
  22. looking really good Michael!! on a side note, I think I may have just found the color for my 6-4 Impala. did you shoot that over the silver leaf??
  23. Awesome build!!! I love the soot around the pipes, and the tires look like they are down on pressure!!! absolutely great!!
  24. I like the gasser idea. you see the '63's done up all the time as lowriders, the gasser is something different.
  25. I've always been able to just peel it of when dry, but I use it for mock up purposes.
