    List of resin body makers

    Very few resin companies have the chrome actually chromed but they are out there. For chrome there are plating services such as Little Motor Car Company, The owner Dale Horner does excellent work. Without sending the parts out to a plating service the next best thing is Alclad. It's not real...

    List of resin body makers

    ...repop of the original 63 Valiant kit. I don't know who's it was though and I never bought one since I have an original unbuilt mint kit of one. *edit* The 63 I thought I had is actually a 60 Valiant. Also the stock 65 dart resin kit I have was made by Ray Parsons of R&R Vacuum Craft. His...

    Working with photoetch

    There's linkage available from Detail Master and I think Model Car Garage. You may have to fold it to get the right shape of the linkage. To fold it you can use tweezers, photoetch pliers, or a specific holder/folder for photoetch. (use the tweezers, it's not elaborate. If you saw my 935...

    No luck Adjusting Rockers

    When I was building motors for a living, I didn't use the count the turn method. There's a chamfer inside the lifter before the bore for the inside piece's bore starts. I ran them down to the bottom edge of the chamfer and that was it. Never had a problem using this method. I would definitely...

    Tie Rod Ends Hitting Torrsion Bars????

    I didn't realize there were different center links for later years. There is definately something up or a mix mash of parts from previous owner. After reading the whole link posted, I'd start at the k member and work back from there. Check the sleeve in the K member and the torsion mount at the...

    Tie Rod Ends Hitting Torrsion Bars????

    It has the wrong center link in the car. Or the wrong pitman/idler arms on it. My 68 GTS which was never touched till I got it has the center link that the tie rod hole is facing foward not up. I just ran out side with the camera and looked. I think they used different center links for slant or...

    What color should I choose?

    I gotta agree with what cascius said, if it's going to be his car. Also this your car, not ours. Paint the engine bay black if you want. Many of us may not agree with that but it's how we personalize our cars to reflect what we like. Me personally, I'd paint the engine bay the same color of the...

    It all boils down to a father that loves his daughter and the daughter while old enough by legal terms is an adult, she is still in HIS house as his daughter. His kid, his house, his rules!

    Shafers model car thread

    If your talking about my truck, they came from some of the 60's annual kits. I don't think anyone has them in resin but if anyone did do them it would be Replicas and Miniatures Co of Maryland. I might have more sets but it's gonna take some digging as we are packing to move to our new house in...
