Ahh right you are. Dunno where I got the P from

I know seriously. I know about the one here but I can't afford $50k. Maybe I should have mentioned that first I would be interested in looking at some cars that were in the $20k range. I asked here hoping that someone knew of a car for sale personally. Most US skylines advertised are pretty sketchy. The black one in OH is the best example out of those IMO

If anyone knows of either a 70-73 Skyline KPC10 or even the KPC110 Ken&Mary, an R32, 33 or 34 GTR for sale in the states, please let me know. Also open to looking at an S15 silvia. Thanks in advance, Brandon

Carl, Let me know if you ever want me to take specific photos of anything

I took some photos of my dads engine build for the 72 <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/14049800@N00/3753291927/" title="IMG_3601 by RVAE34, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2140/3753291927_7485bc9247_b.jpg" width="684" height="1024" alt="IMG_3601" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/14049800@N00/3754088174/" title="IMG_3604 by RVAE34, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2653/3754088174_d1e644db86_b.jpg" width="1024" height="684" alt="IMG_3604" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/14049800@N00/3754087680/" title="IMG_3599 by RVAE34, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2498/3754087680_214b6ce79e_b.jpg" width="684" height="1024" alt="IMG_3599" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/14049800@N00/3754087102/" title="IMG_3602 by RVAE34, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2599/3754087102_fd9eb916fc_b.jpg" width="1024" height="684" alt="IMG_3602" /></a>

Wow!! I love the finish on those wheels!!! And the engine bay looks terrific!!! This car is incredible

My dad invited the guys over for dinner that did his coilovers and Brake upgrades on the lime 72 car. I drove the 510 and they brought the GTR so it was a great photo op. Figured I throw a few of these photos on here while we wait on the next safari gold update <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/14049800@N00/3754130048/" title="IMG_3742 by RVAE34, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3438/3754130048_2f18a44fcf_b.jpg" width="1024" height="585" alt="IMG_3742" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/14049800@N00/3753322679/" title="IMG_3698 by RVAE34, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2433/3753322679_7c08f4b1a0_b.jpg" width="1024" height="684" alt="IMG_3698" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/14049800@N00/3753321925/" title="IMG_3695 by RVAE34, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2664/3753321925_1f6da36a15_b.jpg" width="1024" height="684" alt="IMG_3695" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/14049800@N00/3754112270/" title="IMG_3669 by RVAE34, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2460/3754112270_55ed707883_b.jpg" width="1024" height="684" alt="IMG_3669" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/14049800@N00/3754111628/" title="IMG_3668 by RVAE34, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3501/3754111628_158ce5b1b1_b.jpg" width="1024" height="684" alt="IMG_3668" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/14049800@N00/3754108486/" title="IMG_3658 by RVAE34, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3424/3754108486_83d6313239_b.jpg" width="1024" height="684" alt="IMG_3658" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/14049800@N00/3753313181/" title="IMG_3663 by RVAE34, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3469/3753313181_51e23ec1a6_b.jpg" width="1024" height="684" alt="IMG_3663" /></a>

Ahhhh the dewey decimal system

You guys all realize this was the show from 2 years ago right? It was a much better turnout then this past years show.

Wait until his Safari gold is finished!!! it is going to be an absolute thing of beauty. Even better than the other 2!!!!

Those are my dad's cars. Diseazd. They are 16" BTW, my old camera used for these photos was a Canon Rebel 300D XTi. My new one is a Canon 40D. Huge imporvement!!!!

That is the exact car I was about to post. My personal favorite Z of all time. That is the color I would go with. Of course those are wats and the panasports won't look quite the same. My vote is for watanabes in gunmetal with polished lip just as above!!

15%!!! That is super dark. Is that legal in WA?

I just scanned the dyno sheet for my dad. Here they are. Scan001.PDF dyno2.PDF

Very cool!!! I am suprised that's only 20 hours. My half sleeve took 32. Of course I think it was b/c of all the color. The detail is incredible!!!! Very good artist you have. My guy may do a cool one of my 510 on me before too long.

Yowzas!!!!!

I started with a cheap $110 kit that had a primer and base gun, a clear gun and a detail gun. All HVLP. I got it at the local auto paint supply place. I used those guns for 4 years. They did well. I always had to do some wetsadning and buffing though. Great starter kit!!! Then I went with the Devilbiss plus gun. It was about $500 and makes all the difference in the world. I now lay down glass smooth clear!!! I would start with something cheap but stick with hvlp. Practice to get perfect. The prep work is the most important part anyway. Then when you get better upgrade

Not sure if I am going to do anything with this or keep it for static display. I also bought an E-flite CX3 helicopter that I absolutely love!!!!

Here is my finished HPI 510.

Wow!!! 3rd vote for coolest dad award!!!
