Nice lookers! :thumbsup::thumbsup: rr

Well things have been busy at the shop. The 57 got mounted to a chassis, It will sit the height you see. Adding the side pipes will make it look even lower

Cool flop on the paint Kevin!

Yeah, it's difficult to photograph those chameleon colors. That's a good body to use it on because the lines on the car can make it look like a two- or three-tone even though it isn't. Great job!

Kevin,

That Vette paint job just makes me wish for summer and Phsssssssssssssssshing again. Dang that is nice looking and the engine with the red Pops. Gotta love that...

Bob...Hmmmmm you sent me one of these...hmmmmmmmmmm...zilla

Thanks guys, an Yes I did Bob. Cant wait to see what the zilla shop does to it!!!!

Yea, Cool color changer indeed!!! Is that spray can or airbrush??? RM

its airbrush, http://www.spazstix.com/index.php I think they have rattle can sprays now

Check this out. Chrome from a spray can. Wonder how good it looks in person. If it's half as good as their pic, gonna have to give it a try. Anyone try this stuff yet? :thumbsup::thumbsup: rr

http://www.spazstix.com/xcart/home.php?cat=300

I use the airbrush chrome,, LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!! An Yes RR, It does look like that once sprayed

That vette came out awesome!! It's certainly not the easiest masking job with the blower attached... and the bumpers too!! Top notch detailing all the way around!!:thumbsup::thumbsup: The reflection of the blower on the hood in the side shot tells all!!!! Awesome!!!:thumbsup::thumbsup:

I cheated, I carefully removed all those parts :p, All the chrome pieces where dipped in my chrome spaz stix paint, They was to small to try an hold to airbrush

I have all the color change paints an love them, These I have not tried yet but I may have to get some http://www.spazstix.com/xcart/home.php?cat=348

However you did it, the results are flawless and were well worth the effort!! Removal without messing the parts or the body is not an easy feat either!! :thumbsup:

nice work,and thanks for the paint links!looks way better than the one i did!(mind you that was my first,so brush painting it was!details are good,finish sucks!i am gonna have tp pay closer attention to dust in the air and whatnot.can't seem to get a smooth finish...)great looking vette,once again!

This is the spaz stix color change purple to blue dusted with holographix paint from the xmass exchange. Coach ended up with this car

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v65/GoodwrenchIntimidator3/100_0825.jpg

!i am gonna have tp pay closer attention to dust in the air and whatnot.can't seem to get a smooth finish

Oh that car has some dust as well , you cant see it in the pics, its not bad but its there, I hold the car up an down as I am painting so I minimize the dust.
I'm gonna build a small paint room to start painting in out of a cardboard box an put a small pc fan as an exhaust fan in it with a filter. Plexiglas front so I can see what I'm doing an holes in the side just big enough for my arms to stick in the box. This should eliminate most dust

Great looking Vette Good. :thumbsup::thumbsup:. Love the color changing paint.

I did the same thing on mine using Alclad II.:thumbsup:

NICE job on the paint. That is a sweet lookin' 'Vette.

I bookmarked that site and will have to order from them soon.

Well haven't had much slot car time lately due to helping my fiancee with our import business in South Africa an figuring out what I have to sell to rent my house out for a soon to come move to South Africa, but I have piddled a little when I get the chance.Only bad thing about SA... no HO slots there :(. They have larger scale but not a one HO that I saw. Im gonna have to change that.

very cool idea!

Well I cant take credit for the shopping cart idea, but the Hobby talk advertising for it I can ;). This one is listed on fleabay, May bring in more people to HT I hope. I stuck some of custom my lvl 42 neo traction mags in it to make it stick like glue to the track

i was gonna say you must need stronger mags to keep it in the slot with the high cg...

aww man what a sweet cart!! :thumbsup:

So, would you call that a TY-Go-Cart?

Some great shots from SA! :thumbsup::thumbsup: rr

When I first saw this it just made me smile. :D Nice slot cart!

This kinda reminds me of the Racing Wheel Chair Gannys slot car set posted a while back. RALMAO

I am soooooooooooooooo hungry right now and will probably end up dreaming about grocery shopping for snacks tonight. Then the nightmare of seeing the reciept....aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah :eek:

Bob...hey kids don't hang on the cart or you'll get hurt...zilla
