Lunajammer Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 Excellent. I think you hit all the marks. Everything looks right. Those wheels man, I think they were worth the money.
W-409 Posted March 18, 2013 Author Posted March 18, 2013 Thanks Tony and Mike! You are correct, the wheels really were worth the money. And actually they weren't too expensive either and I have few more sets of them waiting...
ChevyCoupe41 Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 This looks very good! Engine details adn paint job looks really good. I think that this is one of the best builds what you've did so far.
W-409 Posted March 18, 2013 Author Posted March 18, 2013 Thanks Matti! I agree with you, this is one of the best builds I've done. The engine detail is not as good as in some other builds, but the paint job is probably the best one to date. Now I will try to get bit better paint job for my '69 Camaro project...
CrazyGirl Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 way cool build !!!! Mr 409 , may i ask what paint and color you used on the transmission ???
W-409 Posted March 19, 2013 Author Posted March 19, 2013 Thanks for the kind comments! Anne: The color on the transmission looks like Revell's #99 silver Enamel Paint. I can't remember surely if it is that paint, but it looks very close. I hope it helps.
Old Coyote Posted March 19, 2013 Posted March 19, 2013 Exceptional build sir ........... your talents really show with this project ....... great work B)
jjsipes Posted March 19, 2013 Posted March 19, 2013 Great looking build there. Very nice. I need to get one of these for my collection
buxxx69 Posted March 19, 2013 Posted March 19, 2013 Beautiful effort my man ! Again I can only hope to aspire to complete work as you do. Cheers !
W-409 Posted March 19, 2013 Author Posted March 19, 2013 Thanks John, Jason and Jarrod! The kind words are really appreciated. I will be making a little upgrade to the engine, the Water hose clamp will be removed and I will make another one which is bit smaller and then more realistic. I will make another one for the other end of that Water Hose, too.
gtx6970 Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 Looks pretty good . It turned out REAL nice . I've built several of the Lindberg 1964 Dodges, I have yet to do one of the 64 Plymouths, ( need to change that soon ) my one and only suggestion is, remove the nubs on top of the grille, they are not there on the 1/1 .
W-409 Posted March 22, 2013 Author Posted March 22, 2013 Thanks Bill! I appreciate it. Thanks for the Suggestion, I will remove the Nubs right away, and cover the area with some BMF.
slusher Posted April 10, 2013 Posted April 10, 2013 Excellent build Niko, paint and finish,foil and decals are perfect. Would love to have it on my shelf. Great work ans it shows.
W-409 Posted April 10, 2013 Author Posted April 10, 2013 Thanks guys for the kind comments! My '69 Petty Torino took One Step forward, when I opened the box, but then Two Steps back. The Front Fenders are warped, just like the car had jumped and landed on its nose. Well all it needs is some hot water to bend those fenders back on their original shape. But....The work with Jo-Han '72 Torino Oval Tracker has continued. Funny thing, the Torino was sold as 1960s Model Kit, even if the car is 1972.
Silver Foxx Posted April 10, 2013 Posted April 10, 2013 This is a great looking build , nice work . I have built a white Jimmy Pardue version , will post it if I can ever master this BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH computer.
W-409 Posted April 12, 2013 Author Posted April 12, 2013 Thanks Bruce, and I hope you can solve your problem, so we could see your build. There can never be too many Vintage Stock Cars.
Mister Twister Posted April 14, 2013 Posted April 14, 2013 Great job Niko...That is ultra clean! I think we can all take some lessons from your super sanitary building style.
GoatGuy Posted April 14, 2013 Posted April 14, 2013 Looks great Niko. The straps painted on the fuel tank show you have a very steady hand.
