rustybill1960 Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 Yes, I must agree with the others here, it is a pleasure to see your work1 And You do deserve your name as well, "Mr. Obsessive!" Great work, really like your attention to detail, it's the little things that count, and look real impressive on a killer build!!! Thank You for sharing Later Russ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High octane Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 Bill, That resin body looks great and with your magic touch, I'm sure that Olds will turn out to be one sweet build. I have seen your work in person and you are one great modeler! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impcon Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 Guy's while talkin with Jeff an Kevin last nite at our club meeting, they were tellin me that Eric(Porky) might just stop casting CAR bodies, caz he's not sellin many of them, and he might just go over to doin Trucks (Semi's) We CAN'T let that happen! Anyone notice what the price of a 64 Cutlass or 64 Falcon goes for on the Bay?? We can't let QUALITY castings like these just fall by the wayside just because no one wants ta pay for the resin kits! C'mon guys, they're REALLY nice, Affordable(VERY) and practically just FALL together. If ya wanna go nuts like Bill, the base is there, just watch Bill's build up. But if yer lazy like me, these kits are HARD ta beat for the price! Eric went thru ALOT of hassle to get them for us so the least we can do is to buy one, or two, ta keep him doin new ones. I'd hate to lose such a GREAT car caster to the trucker guys! These kits are REALLY nice!!! Try one I GAYRONTEE you'll like it, and be happy, an ya might even get ANOTHER one fer your ol Ma!!! ( and SHE'LL tell ya wat i nice kit it is!!!! Does Eric have a website? if so, can you please post an URL? I for one will try to give him some support.

MrObsessive Posted May 24, 2010 Author Share Posted May 24, 2010 Thanks for the nice words and encouragement so far fellas! I didnt' get a lot done this week..............had some family issues to deal with (Dad was ill), and I was out of town all weekend and just getting home a couple hours ago. Now I'm totally beat and I'm soon off to bed! I took tonight off so I wouldn't have to deal with going in on third shift on a Sunday night. It's back to normal tomorrow night, and so hopefully I'll have more to share later this week. I hope Eric does continue to do cast cars! His castings are definitely Modelhaus quality as I saw nary a pinhole or badly misshapen part anywhere! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc @ MPC Motorsports Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Does Eric have a website? if so, can you please post an URL? I for one will try to give him some support. Eric has decided to concentrate on his truck resins and has passed the molds for the 1964 Cutlass and Falcon to Kenny at Bandit Resins. I don't think they are on the Bandit Resins website yet, but you can email KDog at kdoggraphix@bellsouth.net. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROY AVERY Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 WHAT HAPPENED? WHERE DID IT GO? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjordan2 Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 (edited) WHAT HAPPENED? WHERE DID IT GO? I know what you're saying. There are so many threads on "Workbench" about "WIP" projects that get stalled or delayed or go nowhere or whatever, and keep you hungry for the next installment. I almost wish that instead of "On the Workbench," we had a category of "Build Journals," where the step-by-step building process could be outlined and nothing would be posted until the model was finished. On the other hand, I can think of certain topics posted by a modeler who has never shown a finished product, but whose painstaking custom work on tiny bits and pieces has been tremendously instructive. Anyway, it's summer, and people go away for a while. Who knows? Edited July 20, 2010 by sjordan2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jjsipes Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 Mr Obsessive, hope you don't mind but I was following this WIP and it inspired me to get a resin '64 Cutlass and have been working on it since. Here is what I have so far. Started with a Bandit Resins kit and AMT '66 Cutlass and went to town on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrObsessive Posted December 10, 2010 Author Share Posted December 10, 2010 Jason that looks good! I'd love to get more done on mine, but I literally don't have the time these days between work and doing computer repair for others in between! Maybe someday.............

66 olznut Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 (edited) I am an Olds guy and just found this via link from an Olds forum. First, not to be nit picky but the closest thing I found to a '64 442 air cleaner is to take 2 4bbl '65 GTO air cleaner, cut the snorkel off one, shape it a bit and stick it on the other. The Toro air cleaner is too big and flat. Also, you could use the '66 442 conv for a correct 4bbl intake and you get the a/c set-up as well to compliment the a/c firewall. The hardtop 442 has the a/c firewall but no a/c which I have yet to find a nice non a/c firewall to replace it. I built the R&R '65 442 which was my first resin kit and man, what a pain it was, I pretty much mirrored what is being shown here, putting the '66 under it and it took a bunch of work, even more with the ideas I kept coming up with, it didn't turn out as nice as the '64 but it is a decent representation of a '65. Also, here is a pic of a correct '64 442 air cleaner to get ideas Edited November 16, 2012 by 66 olznut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
