  1. Thats what I used. Just 1st coat spray it on a little light.
  2. Ive used testors wetlook clear over decals with no issues. it might depend on the decals used thoughMod These are kit decals under maybe 3 or 4 coats of said clear
  3. STELLAR build. Hands down one of my favorite year of the early bullet Birds. Excellent color choice
  4. What kind of problem will I run into if I transplant the front doghouse of this 72 Chevelle on to a current issue 1968 El Camino ( my preference if it is feasible ) Reason I ask, is a potential client is asking me to build a replica of his 1/1 car. and he has a resin body ( not my favorite route, especially if its a Flinstone body )
  5. Any thoughts on how to achieve this one by chance
  6. Does the car even exist in 1/24 or 1/25th scale ? I dont think so
  7. Agreed, Ive had more than one roll off the shelf and make a mess .
  8. Very. Very nice
  9. Closest I've found thats easy to find is plasticote spray cans of hemi orange. You can also buy mopar performance hemi orange in rattle cans (my preference btw )
  10. Whats the point digging up 5 year old threads , especially when there is nothing in the beginning of the op to give a clue as to what the thread is about
  11. If I remember right there is a box cut into the firewall for the battery, basically behind one of the front tires The grey box behind the driver in the above photo is the rear axle cooler
  12. If you can find one of these its probably your easiest ( cheapest ) route
  13. A few of the top of my head. Just to name a few I can think of right now Soapy Sales Challenger and the Barry Setzer Vega funny cars The Badman and Monkee Mobile The Monogram
  14. Ive never met this Greg and odds are never will. He may be a great guy , and thats fine. BUT, Based on whats been posted here in the past about delays on the printed magazine . Like it or not its a business and if I ran my business that way I would have been out of business in a heartbeat. IMO ( and last time I ckd we are allowed one ) unless something can be done in regards to delay after delay with subscribers receiving what they paid for in a timely manner , either close it up and make portions of this forum paid only. Or hand it over to someone / some company that can deliver said product on time. I'm sure I'm not alone saying this but if portions of this site want to go to paid only, I'm fine with that and would mostly pony up . But no way am I paying for a paper magazine then taking years to receive all the issues I paid for .
  15. Agreed 100%
  16. Agreed, For a BB chevy, I think the one on the Old Pro Nova would be your best option in stryene
  17. welcome aboard. Models can be a huge help in taking our minds off the daily grinds of life and its associated issues. Chin up, there is always light at the end of the tunnel,,,,it just has a magnifier built in it now LOL ps, in regards to the IMC Little red Wagon poster. I honestly cant say if Ive ever seen one before or not.
  18. This is my thoughts. Having built models off and on since the mid 60s . I would dare say Ive built well into the thousands. Ive got maybe 150/200 or so built on hand in the cases now . Lord only knows how many I've sold off or been damaged and thrown away over the years. I'm afraid to think the $$$$$$$ I've 'torched' in simulated crashes back in my youth
  19. Beauty for sure. Ive had one of these on my to find list....with not much luck btw
  20. I just paint it a like color as the flocking and sprinkle away . Had zero issues Had one i used white glue pull loose at the edges after a while
  21. We think alike
