mnwildpunk Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 Oh ho ho killer totally killer bud. You are doing an amazing job
pharr7226 Posted May 6, 2014 Posted May 6, 2014 Killer build of an unusual subject. What color did you use on the chassis. It kinda looks like magnesium metalizer.
MADDOG Posted May 6, 2014 Posted May 6, 2014 Oh My Goodness! It looks awesome! Outstanding work. Love the color as well.
am73grand Posted May 6, 2014 Author Posted May 6, 2014 Killer build of an unusual subject. What color did you use on the chassis. It kinda looks like magnesium metalizer. Thanks! The paint on the chassis is Tamiya "Light Gunmetal".
Dragracer Posted May 8, 2014 Posted May 8, 2014 The paint looks killer Ron, also I think the springs turned out looking great, beautiful build!
am73grand Posted May 9, 2014 Author Posted May 9, 2014 Progress is moving right along on this one. I got it cleared and the body is on the chassis for good. All that's left are parachute release lines, fuel pump and lines to the barrel valve, glass in the hatch and quarter windows, door handles and dzus fasteners on the hatch. Thanks for looking!!
am73grand Posted May 11, 2014 Author Posted May 11, 2014 ALMOST finished. still have a few lines and some linkage to run. I promise the finished pics will be much better.
1 bad55 stan Posted May 11, 2014 Posted May 11, 2014 I just love your builds Ron,Your work is amazing!
Dragfreak Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 (edited) Ron, I envy your skills, that Ventura is just drop dead gorgeous. Edited May 20, 2014 by Dragfreak
Romell R Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 Good Job on this project outstanding detail. Small suggestion try a different material for your chute cord it just doesn't do your build any justice
am73grand Posted May 20, 2014 Author Posted May 20, 2014 Good Job on this project outstanding detail. Small suggestion try a different material for your chute cord it just doesn't do your build any justice Thank you very much. Any ideas on what I could use for chute cords?
tubbs Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 Ron, that is a killer build. very inspirational. as far as the chute goes, it seems that parachute cords always seem to be wrapped in black or silver material. maybe wrap the yarn in bare metal foil or for something stronger, maybe the dull side of aluminum foil? that's what I was going to try on my Pontiac I am building.... but I am not that far yet. either way, still a great build.
Bill Edman Posted May 21, 2014 Posted May 21, 2014 (edited) Ron that is 1 awesome pontiac Edited May 21, 2014 by Bill Edman
brett Posted May 21, 2014 Posted May 21, 2014 Thank you very much. Any ideas on what I could use for chute cords? curtain cord like whats used on venetian blinds and wrap most of it in a thin strip of BMF wound around it. The build looks fantastic mate !! freaking awesome , are you adding a spoiler or wing?
