tbill Posted February 1, 2015 Author Posted February 1, 2015 feeling myself again, so got a lot done this weekend while time permitted although it may not seem like much progress, we all know how time fly's when you're at the bench. finally got the last two interiors done, so all 6 of those are in the 'done pile' waiting to be installed. got the radiator supports on, and batteries wired up and drive shafts in, also got one body foiled and some PE parts put on, still need to clean it up and touch up a few bits, but one body is almost 'done'
tbill Posted February 1, 2015 Author Posted February 1, 2015 so it looks like if time and energy permits, this week will be devoted to foiling the rest of the bodies, then it'll be headliner time. after that, I might be able to start mating bodies and chassis parts permanently. thanks for tuning in............
Mopar - D Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 Tom this project is just fantastic can't wait to see all 6 lined up completed.
tbill Posted February 5, 2015 Author Posted February 5, 2015 lol, you and me both got this one in the final stages, chassis and interior are now mated, glass is in etc.. the mirrors are painted, and I painted the lower tail section and rear spoiler this evening. with luck, this car will be done by weekends end [ got bowling tomorrow night, and have to work Saturday, so sunday will be the day I hope]. I get this one wrapped up and the others will go together quicker I hope as this was the test car to see how everything was going to mate up. look for some pic's of a complete car sunday
mustang1989 Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 Man Tom! That blue sure has a purdy shine to it!!!
Pizzwizz24 Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 Love the blue with white. Great contrast. And terrific work on the BMF! Nicely done.
slusher Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 Awesome foil work Tom. I also look forward to seeing them lined up...
Mopar - D Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 Tom I'm looking forward to seeing your progress come Sunday evening.
tbill Posted February 7, 2015 Author Posted February 7, 2015 teaser pic's......finish line is close for one..... should have pic's of this one completed at some point tomorrow, and hopefully some progress pic's of another one
Curt Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 Really nice work, Tom. I'm sure the siblings will look just as sweet...
Mopar - D Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 Tom number 1 is looking good sitting there on the shelf.
LMDAVE Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 This is beautiful work...love that engine assembly line.
tbill Posted February 8, 2015 Author Posted February 8, 2015 thanks guys look for new pic's tomorrow as I hope to finish this one up.
Guest Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 I'll be honest. When I first saw this thread, I wasn't expecting much. As they were being built assembly line style. I didn't expect all the awesome detail, BMF, wiring, and awesome paint work! You sure impressed me and changed my mind....WITH CAMAROS! My screen name should make it obvious how big of a deal that is! Cheers! Job well done!
mustang1989 Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 Schuuuuweeeeeett! I'm still just trying to get over the 6 builds at one time concept. The word that comes to mind??................................................mind-blowing!
tbill Posted February 8, 2015 Author Posted February 8, 2015 thanks again guys, it sure is a trip doing these things well, other than the outside rearview mirrors, number 1 is done
tbill Posted February 8, 2015 Author Posted February 8, 2015 pic's are a little dark, but it's snowing out, so no natural light pic's yet.
Mopar - D Posted February 9, 2015 Posted February 9, 2015 Tom this is super now just 5 more to finish
mustang1989 Posted February 9, 2015 Posted February 9, 2015 Man that thing looks good Tom!!!! The great part is that the level of detail and work is as good as if you just built one build, let alone six!! Great work man! Tom this is super now just 5 more to finish Just 5 more! lol
tbill Posted February 9, 2015 Author Posted February 9, 2015 thanks all, much appreciated number one is officially done, mirrors are on. took a few more pic's to try to capture the color and shine, .........now, on to the other 5...........lol........stay tuned........
Mopar - D Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Tom is a great looking build looking forward to seeing it with the other 5 on the transporter!
tbill Posted February 11, 2015 Author Posted February 11, 2015 car number two taking shape, had a little decal disaster on the roof, BMF pulled the rear of the decal up and tore it, so I will need to repair/replace that eventually. with some luck, this one will be done by the end of the weekend [other than the roof decal].
