    You couldn't have ended this review and build any better by playing some Foghat and Slow ride as Melba toast is spinning showing off all her beautiful curves. Looks really nice and I wish I could build one just like it but I am actually building one to give to my brother as a tribute to his blue Chevelle that he owned back in the day.

    Boyd, the body of that thing looks like it was made out of metal instead of plastic. The stuff your putting out is top notch, brother! I’m looking forward to seeing the Disco-prise after you get the decals applied.

    Nice car!
    Like I've said on another modeling channel, the designers really knew what they were doing in the 1960s and 1970s with car designs. Amazing to think this car was designed over 50 years ago!

      @TrekWorks  Před 4 lety +1

      That period was the pinnacle of design for cars and a lot of other things.

    Boyd, thank you for all the informative videos. I've been with your site since 2014 after starting to build models again after 35 years. As for your issue over speed when buffing your model, I use a little drill (12V) I picked up at Harbor Freight for around $15. From Amazon I picked up a variable (3-12V) power supply for $10. I can adjust the speed down from it's 12V easily. I primarily use it for micro drilling star ship holes but will certainly now use it for buffing too! Thanks. Robert A from UT.

    All the work you put into the body finish was worthwhile- it's utterly convincing. It doesn't look at all like plastic, it looks like Detroit Iron covered with automotive lacquer and Turtle Wax. I can aaaaalmost see the solder joints between the rear quarter panels and the roof pillars.

    • @TrekWorks
      @TrekWorks  Před 4 lety +1

      I grew up with those cars and when you see them restored supposedly to "factory" at car shows today, they are way too perfect. Especially the fit and finish. The original cars had uneven gaps, and although decent, the paint jobs didn't look like they were a mile deep.

    • @markfergerson2145
      @markfergerson2145 Před 4 lety

      @@TrekWorks Oh, I'm 67 and grew up with them too- I remember fit and finish going to hell in the late 50s or so. It's like the US carmakers just quit caring.
      If your model were blown up to full scale I'm sure we'd both see holidays in the paint, lumps in the chrome and fit issues but at scale, it's as close to perfect as it gets.
      My point was that you managed to make plastic look like painted waxed metal. Stop arguing with me already and just take the compliment, okay?

    Totally awesome build boyd,she looks real sweet,another great movie car that probably gets overlooked but would be great for an upcoming build in the future also would be Dirk Diggler's(Mark Wahlberg's) orange 1970's Corvette from the 1997 film Boogie Nights which I recently watched again,just a suggestion?,awesome car also,will have to go back and watch Dazed & Confused again now though but,keep up the awesome work,cheers

    Alright, alright, alright! I've learned so much from you over the last 8 years that I've been watching your videos, and I've been modelling for about 30 years. I'm wondering if there's anything that you can't do. You even made a real Christine!
    Aaaaand now I have to listen to the Dazed and Confused soundtrack.
