" THE " ugly duckling of the early sixties. 1962 Dodge Dart

Slowly,,,,But surely Rear wheels from the Moebius AFX kits Rear tires from the AMT tires parts pack, Ft wheels from the AMT 62 Impala chromed with the fusion chrome paint Stance is too low in the ft for sure. But I like it. I'm calling it more a 'tribute build ' instead of a true replica anyway. But I'm liking this one more and more as it goes along -
R-model Shelby Mustangs

Great builds And I thought I had a glutton for punishment doing 2 cars at same time . Im such an amateur . Im not a Ford fan persay. But do have a soft spot for the R model cars though Excellent pkg for the day that did very well overall I had an opportunity to visit the Brothers Collection this past spring. And they own a few of these cars ps, If you ever get an invite to see their collection in person, TAKE IT. Its worth the trip trust me -
I have several. Including a couple that simply comes down to or all of the following Sometimes its a parts availability is the issue How to do something I want to do can be a barrier Sometimes I just get distracted and it gets forgotten about Only to be found years later How many I have in said que ?, Deep down I have no idea . But its several for sure

An awb 65 Dodge hardtop converted to a sedan

Ps, Fred Cady made a sheet to do either of the Norm AFX cars And I think Southern Motorsports now owns the rights to the Fred Cady decal line and was doing them Not sure if they still are or not -
An awb 65 Dodge hardtop converted to a sedan
gtx6970 replied to R. Thorne's topic in WIP: Drag Racing Models
Correct. Amblewagon did the original 12 cars and they all were 2 door hardtops EXCEPT Bill Flynns Yankee Peddler was the only sedan done by them AFTER the original 12 were done Any others were privateer shop conversions The red Mr Norm sedan car was done 1st moving rear axle only at the beginning. But the Ft axle was moved a short time later The blue/silver hardtop, (Then red silver ) was the Lindamood Color me Gone car Norm also owned the Butch Leal 2 door hardtop car as well. But it was crashed on the streets of Chicago and parted out before it ever hit the dragstrip as a Mr Norm car livery. As to what order the 3 cars were owned/raced ,,,,, I have no idea EXCEPT I think the sedan was the last one. -
Received a sealed inside Thunderbolt kit on a trade deal with member catpack68 the other day ( thanks again ) Ive been thinking its about time to do another T bolt So this trade worked perfectly and will not sit in the pile for too long

MPC’S COLOR ME GONE 1966-1968 DODGE CHARGER FUNNY CARS
gtx6970 replied to M W Elky's topic in Drag Racing
Looking good I have the 67 Built. And an original issue MPC 68 MPC issue to build The Polar Lights kits are perfect as is for the 69 CMG car which was a mini body . As opposed the 68 and 67 both were full bodied cars Sadly NO ONE does the decals to do it -
I have the scoop for sure Slicks maybe. Ill ck tonight FYI, If you have a set/ The slicks from the AMT parts packs fit the Mobeius rims perfectly
-
Updated photos I was stripping another body. SO dropped this one in the tank with it Came out A LOT better. IMO a light coat of primer will make it good as new
-
Overall , looks like a good kit I already have a few of the old AMT versions and with no real desire to build one stock ( Both of mine are slated to be old drag cars) NOW,,, should they decide to release say the SOX MARTIN or DYNO DON versions. Then I may have to have one or 2 and make my life easier
