looks good pimp!

Love the color and body style.
Did you make the body or buy it molded lexan style?

now you need some phat German rims on that bad boy and you'll be on your way to bling-dom!

i made and vac-molded.. but not lexan. lexan is a GE trademark name. so mine are just plastic (but looks and feels like lexan). i have 5 more to paint right now, and am maiking more with clear plastic(lexan look alike)

holy schizzle my nizzle!

that's awesome man, I'd love to mold my own bodies.

Do you make your own molds?
Typically, how do you make your molds?

Damn, I wanna mold my own too! lol

how do i make:

ingredients...

one thingy of plaster of paris
one thingy of bondo
an assortment of exacto and razors
sandpaper
a bunch of pics of the car that i want
a few 40's
some bandaids for when i cut my finger because i drank the 40's to fast. and cant see straight.

or just start chopping up a hotwheels car, and bondo/putty it back together, but its hard to do, and you need a hacksaw.

Damn son, that $hit be Pimp'n Hard!

that kicks arse yo!

i've got so many old school hotwheels, I've been wanting to mold them and make them into bodies forever now. You're now my guiding light in that area! lol

I've also got the General Lee, Boss Hogs Caddy, Daisy's Jeep, Rosco's cop car and Uncle Cooters tow truck, I could end up making the entire Hazzard County scene!
YAW!

that would be cool, just dont try to mount the auctual die-cast body on your car. you might get a flat tire from the weight of the thing lol

anyway heres a pic of it with some gloss. now all it needs is the numbers for the white circles. but im waiting on the water slide decals which should be here tomorow or the next day.

damn good job!

looks great, like the blue van lookin car there too.

In the earlier pics, the car looked neon orange, now it looks red.

Is my down syndrom acting up again?

its funny in the pic that i put a link to, the paint looks pretty sloppy. i think thats because i resized the photo to fit on the screen. the paint is perfectly smooth except for the white number plackard thingys..
