Thinking of a new project after reading a car mag. of a 55 chev with a

Well then why hasn't a New Zealander done this yet :finger:

I've seen that in that issue of Cruzin, I'd do it if I was you but your right that the paint is the hardest part, the whole car body is airbrushed, it has all the small bolts airbrushed all over the place. Try to get a decal maker then you'll ace it easily. You forgot to mention that that car is road registered and it has 3000hp

it's also going to be in the guiness book of records for the most powerfull
street registerd car. i can airbrush most of the paint work but painting all those bloody rivets will be a pain. i still think it's a slight better than the del sol as its a muscle car and the amount of work in the chassis.
the car has four hyd jacks to lift it up, a 12 and 24 volt system just to start. hey primera man i didn't think kiwis couldn't work computers
just kidding good to see anougher modeller from down this way

Where is Buderim? In QLD? Me and a friend who is also a musclecar modeler are in blue mountains NSW. You anywhere near there? Just looking at your website and saw that you made the Tweedy pie from Revell. What is the kit like? How big are the rear tyres? I noticed you replaced them(obviously), I'm getting this kit soon and just want to pick up some info on it. Also, how did you chop the 32? Could you send me an email explaining it, is it a hard procedure? Thanks in advance!
