I recently won an auction on our swedish version of "evilbay", this custom painted Stude, Miss Deal. I have a slight memory of seeing it in a magazine, like SAE, way back. Anyone else that remember seeing it??

NASCAR decals for 50's cars 1/16?
01 November 2012 - 03:39 AM
A fellow modeler on our scandinavian model forum asked about NASCAR decals for 50's cars. I assume he's thinking about AMT's 55-57 Chevies. Anyone who knows if such decals exist? I think he's referring to the 1/12 version of the 57 Chevy.... Hmmm, slipped my mind... 
First issue Big Deuce, unbuilt. What's it worth?

I just picked up an old unbuilt, mint, Big Deuce kit. It appeared on the swedish version of ebay, called Tradera. The seller told me it had been sitting in his attic for maybe 25 years. He used to be sales boss for the company that imported Monogram kits to Sweden. I used to work in a big toy store with a hobby department. So we had met before, all those years ago in the mid 70's.
It's the old kit from 1963. Box is in fair condition, and it looks like all the parts are there. The instructions were missing, but luckily I had them.

Crazy (un)gullwing 300SL

Ok, not sure if I've shown this one before, but now it's got a new twist to it. At first I was going to convert the doors to regular opening, and use a Corvette chassis. I scrapped that idea, and all of a sudden while tinkering with some old Double Dragster stuff, came up with this:
I'm thinking about cutting the top off, and making it a slippery roadster, like some of those crazy funny cars...
