MCM Friend

MCM Friend (4/6)

  1. I knew Oscar, a real piece of work and one of the nicest guys you would ever meet. He was the real thing, friendly, honest and enthusiastic! Last saw him at the Glen vintage a few years ago vintage pushing his kiddie formula race cars. In the late sixties he paid me and a friend to put postcards with the Tamiya F1 cars on windshields. I still have some somewhere.
  2. anyone had any experience with this? Mirror Chrome Marker (3 PCS) (markerszone.com)
  3. Yes, the "COBRA" scattershields were steel and had COBRA cast into them.
  4. FYI on a Salisbury differential as used by all Cobras, the gear case ("pig, chunk, carrier, etc.") was red oxide as just as on a Ford 9", the carrier was dipped before machining.
  5. Yes, the IMC/Testors/Lindberg chassis works fine. There are several differences the coupe has in the engine compartment. Mr. Google is your friend.
  6. Would love the original. IMC had great box art. I do have the GT playing cards that have that art on them you got by sending 25 cents and a coupon from the kit box.
  7. And I know Allen Grant, who owns a MK 6. Always loved that car. Took my 1/32 Monogram slot car and using a Car Model or Model Car Science magazine article, modified it have the flared fenders of the reworked Mecom car. I ruined a great car!
  8. Very nice! The valve covers are upside-down, on a Ford Windsor engine the taper is narrower at the top and wider at the bottom.
  9. Your roundel lights are on backwards, they will shine to rear and not illuminate the number. Does the instruction sheet show them that way?
  10. Not my car. When I had a restoration shop, we did several Mustangs and Shelbys in that manner. I stole those images from the web (Legendary Motorcars on Ontario)
  11. I stand corrected, I had seen an earlier picture of the Turd that did not have the dimples. Project is looking good!
  12. Chassis looking good. The four rounds are the rubber plugs for the seat mounting studs. There should be 4 more inboard. Most R models I understand didn't have them replaced when the seats were swapped for the race buckets but that would leave a hole with the stud and nut visible and be tough to do. I added four more on my chassis with photo etched rings and filled them with black rubber paint. The ovals are the drains from primer dipping and should be silver/gray galvanized. There would be white overspray on the outer parts of the floor as well as black seam sealer. The transmission crossmember is bare steel so not painted black.
  13. One of the most popular cars in the world, the 65-66 "Stang and there is NO really great kit for it in 1/24-5!
