My dentist is pissed!
Because I haven't been flossing.
While I haven't flossed in quite some time, I have been brushing regularly. There's an anal retentive side of me that never allows a car to be truly finished, so I keep fussing with them. So until I get around to a proper photo shoot for the contest entries, I'm here for my 6 month check-up:
And believe it or not, there's more coming.
I'll fill in the details of the individual cars in their own flossing thread. All drive very well, a couple of them incredibly well. Sorry I was holdin' out.

Dear Life Cereal, Where do you get off? Part of a balanced breakfast and delicious? Who do you think you are? By now you may have guessed I'm speaking ironically and have nothing but good things to say about what you do. Life cereal do not change a thing.

Fly!
I've always loved that color on the older Porsche's (1974-1977), especially with the Rust or Peanutbutter color interiors. I see you left the wing off the rear to give it that nice early Porsche look. Your RX7 from a front view looks just like a Porsche 944 Turbo! Real nice kit you've got there. Helluva good job Pimp! That paint on the Skyline alone with the Nach Wheels are awsome Pimp! Can't wait to see Da rest !!!!

Thanks for the props, pimps.
Cabo: that color on the porsche is a Model Master Enamel called "Light Ivory"
DT: that kit on the RX-7 was my first body kit. I was trying to do something that looked almost stock, but unique. That one kinda turned out like a NASCAR or IMSA racer.
The Skyline is actually kind of a burnt orange metallic color.

Damn, you have been holding out havencha?
I dig the Porshe, I agree with DT that you've given it a reall old school look. That thing would be great as a convertable, oh and bit wheels look almost just like Empi's. Hmmm, you've me a thinkin' now.
Dig that front end on that RX-7. That thing is like a silver bullet now. Should call it 'Vampire Killer'.
That Skyline looks clean too. I'd like to see it next to Hue's Skline that's kinda similar to that.

Thanks again for the compliments, guys. That's why I do it. That and so I can beat hue35's ass in style.
Yep, HO slot car wheels on the Gloria, painted metallic gold.
Here's some info:
Porsche:
Mosfet modded single speed PCB
Teal gears, 4.2 King motor
Spring suspension
Tab lowered front and rear
Removed wing, filled and sanded wing holes
Mask, paint (originally dark blue), detail. Model Master Light Ivory
Painted wheels gloss black
Lancer:
Single speed PCB
Teal gears, 4.2 King motor
Black finned heatsink
Body kit added front, sides, rear with pass-through cusom exhaust
Mask, paint, detail, clearcoat. Custom mix metallic silver-blue over Boyd's Hi Gloss White
LXX Black wheels
I'm surprised no one commented on this one, it's one of my favorites. The body kit looks like it came from the factory. I may still put some decals on this one
Mazda RX-7:
Mosfet modded single speed PCB
KIT racer red gears, 3.8 perfection motor
Black finned heatsink
Spring suspension
Body kit added front, sides, rear
Reshaped wing, added custom exhaust
Model Master Metallizer metallic paint (aluminum plate). You buff this stuff out right after you put it on and it looks like polished metal.
Tinted windows from inside
Clearcoat
KIT racer wheels, front and rear
Gloria:
single speed Panther PCB
Orange gears, 2.2 Microsizer motor (slow and low, that is the tempo)
Spring suspension
Tab lowered front
Removed wing, filled and sanded wing holes
Gold chassis detail, mask, paint, detail, clearcoat. Boyd's Lime Gold Pearl or something like that, and Testor's Gold
Bangin' stereo on the package shelf/motor clip device
HO slot car wheels, front and rear, silicone tires
I added the stereo, metal flake upholstery, gold chassis detail and clearcoat since the first time I flossed this ride.
Esso Supra:
Mosfet modded two speed PCB
teal gears, 4.2 Pro motor
Spring suspension
Tab lowered front and rear, as low as it can go, slightly routed rear wheel wells
Painted wheels gloss white
I put this one in here mostly because it drives like a mofo, and Supras don't look half bad when you drop them. Also, the Supra used to handle like crap, but the mosfets driving a fast motor seem to make it all better. It's a pretty nice $4 body from Toy East
Skyline:
Mosfet modded two speed PCB
Orange gears, 3.8 perfection motor
Black finned heatsink
Spring suspension
Mask, paint, detail, clearcoat. Boyd's
Nakamichi racer wheels, front and rear
Hue35 and I, unknown to eachother, bought the same color of paint. He put his over white primer I think, while mine has the inside of the body painted bright yellow. They end up looking totally different in RL.
So, any advice on which 3 to enter in the contest?[/b]
