Looking really nice Mark

[@MarkBatsonHobbydude007]

Thank you very much Tom!! Appreciate ya bro!!

[@stealthbomber2127]

Mark, do you think you could make a video showing all of those great 3D parts and pieces and the suppliers of each? It would help us builders and could even get you some free parts to get the word out to these great, but not widely known suppliers. Enjoy your vids so much.

[@MarkBatsonHobbydude007]

Thank you very much buddy!! Great idea. There are so many 3D printers out there I’m not sure we could get them all, but maybe some of the biggest and most popular! Truly appreciate ya watching!

[@stealthbomber2127]

@@MarkBatsonHobbydude007 Right you are. I am searching for a few sets of Holman Moody 1/16 wheels. I hope someone out there does them.

[@MarkBatsonHobbydude007]

Let me do some checking. I want to say I have seen those somewhere. Most 3-D printers can shrink or enlarge their prints.

[@TJsModelBench-jb4xt]

I just love your work! I agree with stealthbomber, a dedicated video on some of these detail suppliers would be nice; I’ve never heard of some of the stuff you have. Hippiedude 007! 😂 ☮️ and ❤!

[@MarkBatsonHobbydude007]

Thank you buddy!! Don’t know if I can cover “everything” ( I’m always finding new ones! lol!) but I’ll work up some of my fav’s! Thanks again!!

[@DuTcHsCaLeMoDeLs]

Very Nice

[@MarkBatsonHobbydude007]

Thank you very much!!

[@BigSkyModelWorkshop]

Your level of detailing is incredible! I don't think I could ever get that far but its super cool to see and aspire to. On a side note, the racing we do up here in parts of Montana, from 1992-1996 before we went to window nets we used expanded metal alot like what Bobby Isaac did!

[@MarkBatsonHobbydude007]

Thank you very much brother!! Much appreciated my friend! Big thing is to always have fun and try something a little new! I love the creativity of teams, like the window nets. Hey if it meets the rule! LOL I’d love to see pix of what you guys ran there. Have a great weekend!!

[@BigSkyModelWorkshop]

@@MarkBatsonHobbydude007 I'll post one up of my first car and tag you.

[@MarkBatsonHobbydude007]

@BigSkyModelWorkshop Oooooo!! Awesome! I’ll be looking for it!

[@EdwinWickham]

👍Great fab work. Try an oil pan out of your old AMT NASCAR kit if you still have it. I had to use the headers from mine for this kit bash/engine swap. The 3D ones that looked great, no fitski over front suspension 🤭. Oh well, it’s part of the fun.🤓🥳

[@MarkBatsonHobbydude007]

Thank you very much brother!! I have several oil pans including the amt stock car pans. I’ll be making the headers from scratch! Thanks again!!

[@TerribleTim68]

Why am I so concerned about the space between the fuel cell and the rear end housing? Man, that looks tight! 😲

[@MarkBatsonHobbydude007]

Thanks brother!! No worries, did a LOT of test fitting with the trailing arms and rear end. It’s all good.

[@TN-Vols-Fan]

Great video Mark, thank you. In the video you mentioned showing us the tool you used to bend the spoiler. What tool is it?

[@MarkBatsonHobbydude007]

Thank you buddy!! I actually used my “Etch-Mate” photo etch bending tool. I’ll do a short video on it and the “Chopper” I use constantly when I scratch build anything. Thanks again for watching!!

[@TN-Vols-Fan]

@@MarkBatsonHobbydude007 That would be great brother! Thank you

Thank you!!

[@bobbyosborne2375]

I've got a salvinos Jr 88' Earnhardt car coming up on the bench, and I've got a question Mark. What pulley set would work on the engine of that car? Is it a 5 pulley? I'm gonna try to push my skills to the limit on it.

[@MarkBatsonHobbydude007]

For that year/ era, I use the stock car pulley set from Model car Garage or Detail Master.

[@bobbyosborne2375]

@@MarkBatsonHobbydude007any particular number part number? And thanks for replying.👍
