  1. Well unfortunately, I'm finding that cars from the derbying era are very hard to find, with the exception of a few (76 caprice, imperials, a few fords). Originally I was wanting to find a Fuselage era Newport, and I've found Chrysler 300's that are more or less the same body.
  2. Right on. Resin kits are the sort of thing I want for this, right? Like these http://resinrealm.net/GALLERIES/RRGallery/
  3. I'm thinking the worn damage on the doors could be done by heating, and then scraping seams/lines into the side? Is there anything I need to be careful of while doing something like this?
  4. I'm having trouble finding the help I need on here, sorry if I'm asking questions that are always asked! I'm a derby driver, and I'd like to build a model of one of my cars. What sort of frame would be easiest to use and fit to a car like this? (looking for a metric GM (80s 4dr caprice, lesabre, etc) or a Y-Framer (65-73 Newport, Fury, New Yorker)) My main question is, does anyone have any tips on making the "dents" in the car? I'm assuming heating the plastic, and then what sort of techniques would I use? This is the sort of thing I'm trying to do; http://we-crash.proboards.com/thread/27306/roundback-build-thread-finished
