  1. well unless i find a snap tite that interests me these were my last 2 builds of the year. thanks for all the support guys
  2. man if i had the patients and money for big projects like this i would so try to advance my skills to your level. i still say the cordvette is your best but they are all sweet.
  3. i wouldnt take all the credit, dimaxian gave me the hood and the body and i forget who gave me the nose and wing. so the idea is from dimaxion i just painted it up the way i though his idea would look.
  4. oh someone noticed. i got bored thanks for all the compliments
  5. great work! the mayans might have to change their calendar so they can continue watching your builds.
  6. Finished them. Remember the Superbird was scrap bodies so its not as clean of a build as the Daytona. Both are Hemis Both have detail master distributors. The Bird may not look as good but im just happy i have a JoHan superbird i hate 1/24 so this 1/25 bird is a great addition. The daytons plate says thing1 and the birds says thing 2.
  7. do you make your own parts? for your 1:1 cars?
  8. this was the monogram days of thunder hardees Chevy Lumina stock car. i did this thing in 2004 i think when i was family birthday card maker. i made like a buck 50 a card. the hood if you cant read it says jakes custom cards. then this year i tryed to referbish it a little it got new wheels and a couple new sponsers. now if only i could get my hands on the amt blank stock car and do one with decal paper and make it look good.
  9. engines finally got distributors the wiring on both is yellow and gray and if you notice they are in opposite positions on each side. yes i know i didnt do the full out super detailed distributor but it works for me. superbird got custom made firewall hose. still need to do the radiator hose then i think they will be done.
  10. you should do resin kits for people to buy these builds of yours are awesome
  11. i like it how bout a deals wheels style F150? i wouldnt know where to start in building one. besides i like watching your builds. again awesome work!
  12. any work on the chassis yet or is it only engine and wheels? i need to learn these skills and have access to the tools to do this. but i like my simple builds.
  13. This is what i do every year.
  14. why couldnt my parents have had anything cool like that? the coolest car my parents had in my opinion was an 88 lebaron with the turbo engine red leather and a convertible. we did also have a fully loaded durango.
  15. and my grandparents 67 mustang they bought and street raced in 1969
  16. were you an assembly guy? i got a 92 riv
  17. i like it how did you flatten the tires
  18. ok thanks for the update. the kubota started out like this but we though it would make a good 1/25 b6100 like my grandma has
  19. well for the most part they are finished both need a little detailing before underglass, yes i did crack the superbirds from window on accident i felt like i destroyed a classic but its ok for a scrapped together bird. Still waiting on amazon to ship my distributers so i can finish the engines. Yes that is snow in the background welcome to north east ohio.
