jonathanwziel Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 Just finished the 55' FORD F100 - Monogram Hope yall like it! Thanks for viewing!
Dr. Cranky Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 Love the satin look, and the pictures are very good too. Thanks for sharing. Nice model indeed.
Renegade Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 Great look. Fantastic detail. Looks perfect with the diamond plate bed and chrome reverse and baby moons.
jonathanwziel Posted August 6, 2012 Author Posted August 6, 2012 Thanks for the compliments! Id like to know what i could of done better, or need work with?? I just found out the wiring on the engine isn't right...
Ramfins59 Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 Great looking truck Jonathan. I love the diamond plate bed floor. I've been wanting to try doing that on a pickup too and now that I see how good it looks I may definitely go for it on my next pickup truck project. What's wrong with the engine wiring..??? Looks OK to me, but I'm not an expert.
jonathanwziel Posted August 6, 2012 Author Posted August 6, 2012 Thanks Richard, it seems that the engine distributor wiring isn't in firing sequence...I'll have to look up the firing order...
crazyjim Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 Purely my personal opinion, Jonathan - the only thing you could have done better is to have made it SHINY :)
Jantrix Posted August 7, 2012 Posted August 7, 2012 Oh yes. That's what I'm talking about. I've always loved satin black. Well done.
rmvw guy Posted August 7, 2012 Posted August 7, 2012 I love everything about it and the pictures are gorgeous!!! The fireing order wrong, are you kidding me?
Olskoolrodder Posted August 7, 2012 Posted August 7, 2012 VERY nice,I LOVE it,great stance,nice attention to detail,KILLER KOOL design! Nicely done
blunc Posted August 7, 2012 Posted August 7, 2012 The firing order is:18436572, or 15486372... not that it will really matter since I'm guessing you forgot to gap the plugs
Ramfins59 Posted August 7, 2012 Posted August 7, 2012 Thanks Richard, it seems that the engine distributor wiring isn't in firing sequence...I'll have to look up the firing order... Hey Jonathan... It's a MODEL CAR...!!! Do you think anyone really cares if the distributor & spark plugs are wired in the correct firing order...!!! I'm guessing then, that there is no air in the tires (no valve stems), no antifreeze in the radiator, no oil in the pan, no dipstick, no tranny fluid, no rear end grease, no fuel or brake lines, no brakes, no secondary electrical wiring, the gauges don't work, no seat belts, interior visors or dome light, etc... etc... etc... If you built this model to put in a contest where the judging is THAT picky, then I would say to wire it using the correct firing order, but otherwise... don't sweat it. I don't even think Harry would pick on you for it. Harry should be happy with it... you've got inside & outside mirrors, although I can't tell whether or not the alternator is "just hanging there." LOL You did a great job Jonathan... be proud of it.
jonathanwziel Posted August 7, 2012 Author Posted August 7, 2012 You are right Richard, thanks for the props!
Sixties Sam Posted August 8, 2012 Posted August 8, 2012 Very nice, clean build! I wouldn't sweat the firing order. Sam
slusher Posted August 11, 2012 Posted August 11, 2012 Really nice build and the engine detail is great. The satin finish was a great touch. very nice...
Shardik Posted August 11, 2012 Posted August 11, 2012 Oh yeah! that is one NICE truck. There's not enough room here to list everything I love about it, but for critique: maybe tone down the chrome a bit with a semi gloss clear coat. Beautiful pictures, too. I would love to get a look at your lighting setup (that was a hint by the way).
Greg Pugh Posted August 11, 2012 Posted August 11, 2012 Easy fellas. I wire 'em in the correct firing order also. Nice lookin' truck by the way!!
