tyrone Posted November 14, 2013 Author Posted November 14, 2013 Tyrone what diecast do you get the hideaway headlight grill from and do use the taillights from diecast also? Hey Bob... the diecast kits I used are called Maisto die cast... I used them on a stock build I did a while back... I have one more grille left and I can't find the rear tail lights smh.... here's a few pics....

tyrone Posted November 19, 2013 Author Posted November 19, 2013 What's up fellas... I've been making some progress on this one and the Mustang... I've been working on the body work.. laid on a coat of primer.. I also got the rear end finished and painted... I got the doors mounted, made the inner door skins, and added the door jambs..I've got the chassis painted.. I'll add some carbon fiber decals to the rear wheel tubbs and then clear it all.. I've also started on the engine... thanks for looking and comments welcome....
Mooneyzs Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 Tyrone....it's great to see you back on this build. She is looking good. Keep up the great work on this.
comp1839 Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 now THAT has a serious case of ATTITUDE!!!!!
tyrone Posted December 2, 2013 Author Posted December 2, 2013 Thanks guys... a few updates on this one.. been working on the engine....made a water pump and vaccum pump from styrene... and got the carbon fiber decals applied to the rear wheel tubbs and laid a few coats of clear on the chassis... thanks for looking and comments welcome...
Johnny Racer Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 Wow! Those water pumps look better than that real thing! I love em!!! Stellar work as usual!
Ace-Garageguy Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 Great looking chassis work. Inspirational.
Prostreet Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 Looking good, You have the outlaw look nailed down.
Dragracer Posted December 3, 2013 Posted December 3, 2013 Looking good Tyrone, water pumps came out looking real nice!
tyrone Posted December 11, 2013 Author Posted December 11, 2013 Hey fellas.... I've been messing around a little with this one too.. I've made up the headers and painted them, and I've got the chassis all done with clear.. Now I can start getting this one knocked out... I think I'm gonna go with the blacked out wheels on this one too...
Prostreet Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 Looking good Tyrone, I'd like to do a 64 nova like that.
Dragfreak Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 Nice work Tyrone! I hope to successfully scratch a full tube chassis soon.
Skypower Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 That beast looks awesome wish I could build like that. Great job. I do have a question I am new to modeling, started my first build this past week how are you guys opening the doors, just using a knife and going down the body line several times, just guessing. Looks Amazing Thanks Bob
freakshow12 Posted December 12, 2013 Posted December 12, 2013 How do you do the welds on the headers?
tyrone Posted December 12, 2013 Author Posted December 12, 2013 How do you do the welds on the headers? Fred to make the welds I take a toothpick and sharpen it to a nice fine point on the tip with a hobby knife, then dip in chrome or aluminum paint and then just go around the header tubes at different spots on the headers...
Gipper Posted December 12, 2013 Posted December 12, 2013 Amazing , how do you manage to have so many projects and complete them. I know part of the trick is to have them in various stages , but with the detail you add , well it would make me stall for fear of not rendering an accurate depiction. I really admire your approach to scratch building parts. Keep up the good work. I'm jealous :-) you really help make this hobby great and enjoyable.
comp1839 Posted December 12, 2013 Posted December 12, 2013 awesome details tyrone. this thing is brutally cool!!!!
tyrone Posted December 23, 2013 Author Posted December 23, 2013 Thanks alot fellas... messed around with this over the weekend also.... thanks for looking and comments welcome..
Mooneyzs Posted December 24, 2013 Posted December 24, 2013 Tyrone... Those carb set ups are awesome man. Very nice detail to them. This build is flat out awesome Brother!!! Can't wait to see what you post next on this build. Stellar work!
