Luc Janssens Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 (edited) A friend has sent me, the new Revell 'cuda, '62 D&M 'vette and a Moebius Chrysler 300B, so a happy camper, or maybe just happy, cuz I'm more of a indoorsy myself.

Dragfreak Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 (edited) I just put the bird chassis under it and the wheel base is very close but just my luck the pro stock chassis is extremely warped. I'm going by my LHS today so ill see if they'll give me a new kit but if not ill attempt to throw it in hot water and hope to get it right so all the chassis components line up, holes align with pins and all four wheels sit on the ground. My hobby shop took one look at the warped T-bird chassis and told me to find another kit for the same price to exchange it out so I grabbed the new 5.0 fox. Also picked up the Reher Morrison Camaro, an '02 Camaro for the LS to swap into a '79 drag car and a Galaxie trailer.

Dragfreak Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 (edited) Picked up four of these for my LUV, ET 7 inch 6 lug slots for $40. What's cool is they take regular acorn nuts, now all I need is to buy some tires to wrap around them and throw them on. After spending a half an hour doing some polishing yielded great results Edited January 12, 2014 by Dragfreak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helix Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Went to my local hobby store for paint only (that's what we all say !), but stumbled across this one along with some other 'old' kits Nice kit, sealed in the box and has an optional 6 cylinder, something different to my collection Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragfreak Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 What a difference. They look like new. And for 40 bucks they're a total steal! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ffreak Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 I finally got my Veneno kit in from HLJ !! It's quite an impressive kit and reminds me of the Enthusiast kits. The body panels being separate will make it a little more challenging for me to paint and assemble cleanly. And also the decals will be challenging with all the pinstriping ! But hey, I love it and very seldom back away from a challenging kit !! :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billb Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 (edited) Jason....What did you use to do such a fantastic job here?... I've never had results like that when polishing used wheels.... Edited January 12, 2014 by billb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragfreak Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Jason....What did you use to do such a fantastic job here?... I've never had results like that when polishing used wheels.... Went at it a bit with an electric buffer and polishing compound for about 20 minutes and then finished up by hand for about 10 minutes. They were already in incredibly good shape besides a few scratches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roadkill2525 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 (edited) Jason, are you going to rebadge it as a Isuzu Faster or stick with the Chevy emblems? Edited January 12, 2014 by Roadkill2525 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragfreak Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Jason, are you going to rebadge it as a Isuzu Faster or stick with the Chevy emblems? I really love the Chevy badged versions so I think I'll keep my '78 as a Chevy. Either way, finding parts for these things isn't easy nor cheap.
