Bernard Kron Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Very coooolll!!! I dig the differences between the two, the different stances (both very nice), wheel treatments, etc. I also like the "organic" two-tone paint jobs. My preference is for the Ford-grilled job. So Dyna Panhard don'tcha think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saltflat1 Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Unbelievable. The thing that knocked me off the bench seat was the interiors. I wasn't expecting the heavy weathering on the exteriors. The combination is drop dead perfect. Thanks for posting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister Twister Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 I always enjoy looking at your builds Virgil. Very inspiring work that you do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Cranky Posted October 20, 2011 Author Share Posted October 20, 2011 Virgil, those are both awesome. I love the wide whites, especially the pro street tires on the yellow one. Did you paint those on and if so what paint did you use on the tires? Also, does the nose of the yellow one drop down just a bit? Wayne, I painted the wheels with Vallejo model air white, and then hit them up with a little flat clear. They stay sticky for a couple of days and then dry up nicely. I am hoping the paint won't crack over time, but we'll find out . . . thanks of the kind words.Everyone, thank you for the kind words and generosity of spirit. I would not be half the builder if it weren't for all the inspiration you guys share on this forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheCat Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Doc - I have to say, those are some really cool looking Ratz. I like both. Both have a cool unique look. But I'm really diggin the decals on the gray one. Did you create those decals yourself or were they from another kit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Camshaft Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Just another fanboy chiming into to say I love the Ford grille. Totally twisted idea, perfect execution. You guys are filling my head with all kinds of ideas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alyn Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Your creativity knows no bounds, Virgil. Lot's of nice touches to set these apart from the mainstream. Masterful paint work as well(of course). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
