You had a stellar month.  I really love the Stingray, I have the same kit on the bench right now.

thanks Bruce, the Vette kit is nice this is my 3rd one

Those are all outstanding looking builds!  I'd sure like to have as productive of a month as you had!  One question on the Stingray; was it difficult to install the luggage rack on the trunklid?  I think that luggage rack is an outstanding detail-piece, but glueing one onto the trucklid straight and in the correctly-center-positioned seems like a difficult and intimidating thing to do in my mind; was it a challenge or pretty easy to install?

thanks for the comments Mark, the luggage rack is easy there are locating holes that you have to open up. I used a small drill ,here is another shot

Blimey! It'd take me a year to make as many as that. They all look great, too!

But, builds as nice as these deserve separate topics and more photos of each.

Nice work!

Love the Ford truck. I assume that's the Foose 56. I've been thinking about Blue on mine as well. They all look great but that Blue Ford truck is killer.

Really nice builds.love the blue on the F100

Me too.  All of these builds turned out well, but I was especially drawn to the truck and the 'Vette with the luggage rack.  Would you mind telling us which exact paints you used on those bodies?

thanks guys , here are some more of the Foose Ford and the paint colors used on the Ford and Corvette. 20170823_155205_HDR.thumb.jpg.79c0000a6320170823_155454_HDR.thumb.jpg.389f9b9f8720170823_155537_HDR.thumb.jpg.2d20d564f620170823_155703_HDR.thumb.jpg.fcbe55b813

Ford -star-spangled blue  Corvette Tamiya TS-54  then clear coat with Tamiya clear TS-13. The gloss changes the color a little, makes it richer

Very nice job on all of them..Really like the Ford truck..I notice you don't plumb and wire..You've done such a good job on your models you don't need too..All you got to do is build clean,clean,clean..You've done a very good job..

Wow, four nice, clean, builds in just one month.  I can't even get one kit's parts off the sprues in a month.  Well done!

Really like the Corvette...
