Cool project. I would keep the wheels and tires but go for the big back window as mentioned by David. I imagine your friend would make the change if he learned of it.

I am in! I am going to update Dom's 71 GTX into a high speed, long hauler. I have already hacked in a bigger fuel tank and found an IRS that practically fell into place. I also want a more modern engine for power and fuel mileage. Unfortunately, when I cracked open my sealed AMT 2010 Dodge Challenger... IT DOES NOT HAVE AN ENGINE! After some research. I have a 3D printed Hellcat on the way.

Thank you all for replying. After some research for cost vs. what I would actually get, I went with a 3D printed Supercharged Hellcat engine for $16 off ebay.

Donald, I do. But mostly I love most any Muscle Car with 400 or more cubic inches regardless of who makes it.

I want to kitbash a Gen III HEMI into a build. I opened an AMT 2010 Challenger and was sorely disappointed.😞

Thanks for sharing. My Dad used to drag race a 33 Plymouth Coupe with a 331 Hemi in the mid 60's. At one point he had 8! 2BBLs on it. If he saw that there was no one in a certain, Blown, class, he would run a flex hose from the heater blower into one of the carbs just to win a trophy.

Thank you, Danato. 🙂 Thank you, Harry. I thought so too. Thank you, Garry. I am glad you like them. 🙂 Thank you, Ismael. 🙂 Thank you, Jeff. I am pretty pleased with my throughput. Congratz on you 9. 🙂 Thank you, Bob. 🙂 Thank you, David. 🙂 Thank you, Bill. That one was born a 75 promo. I back dated it and added a lot of engine detail. to the 455. Thank you, Bob. 🙂 Thank you, Greg. 🙂 Thank you, Terry. 🙂 Thank you, Mathias. 🙂 Thank you, Hans. I had a lot of fun building it. Much more interesting than a plain white background. Thank you, Phil. No, I like to mix it up. Annually, I shoot for 3 types of builds. One semi, one challenging project and a batch build of 3-5 similar subjects. This year I did not do the semi because last year's was so tough and this year's El Camino need dragged across the finish line finally. Thank, you David. I have lots of variety in my stash to work with. Thank you, Bruce. I am glad you liked it. 🙂 Thank you, Craig. I have plans on eventually having a number of Hurst subjects. Including someday this one.

Did you fab the roof or is someone offering it?

Thank you, John. 🙂 Thank you, Oliver. 🙂 Thank you, Chris. 🙂 Thank you, Chas. I would have loved to have owned one. Thank you, Bill. 🙂 Thank you, David. 🙂 Thank you, David. I wanted something besides basic black inside.

I managed to get SEVEN done this year. One holy grail, two long term projects OFF the bench and 4 batch builds just squeaked in under the wire.

You sure do some fine work. What is the color of the 71 Cuda? I am leaning towards something like that for an upcoming build.

Exquisite builds!

Very well done!

Great job on the weathering. All that hard work paid off!

The 2nd car I ever owned was a 71 Galaxie 500 4DR. It had a 400M and regularly spanked my buddy's 69 Mustang which had a 351 Windsor.

Thank you, Steve. The tires that come with the rims were just TOO low profile for a car this big. I still greatly enjoy my diorama. I use it for a staging area for WIPs. I take pics of the undercarriage on a lift because flipping a model over for pics, destroys the "illusion" in a gallery of photos. Thank you, Greg. 🙂 Thank you, Tim. They are parts box tires from an unknown source. I have 4 overflowing kit boxes of tires. I got them cheaply, by the pound, off ebay in the very early 2000's. Thank you, Phil. 🙂 Stand by... Thank you, Ben. 🙂 I would really like to have the real thing. 😃 Thank you, Mike. 🙂 Thank you, Gary. I am generally a Day Two builder with aftermarket wheels and upgraded induction. However, the Pontiac 8-lugs really appeal to me. But for the "High Performance" pick of the litter, I thought these wheels were just the ticket.

Following. Years ago I traded someone my step side bed and frame for a long bed to go with the standard cab. It is a project I have not gotten to yet. (You know how that goes)

Oooo! I am liking the lighting! I need to step up my game!

Than you, Danny. 🙂 Thank you, Eric. 🙂 You are welcome, Glen. 🙂 Thank you, Carl. 🙂 Thank you, Garry. 🙂

Thank you, Danny. 🙂 Thank you, Eric. 🙂 Thank you, Carl. 🙂 Thank you, Jeff. 🙂 Thank you, David. 🙂 Thank you, Tom. 🙂

Thank you, Carl. 🙂 Thank you, Garry. I was only a toddler when these came out. Thank you, Jeff. I was looking to do something different and the blue interior was a factory option with black. Than you, Mathias. 🙂 Thank you, Jeremy. To me, stance is very important. I get it pretty close most of the time. Thank you, Robert. 🙂 Mike, Thank you. I agree. I was entered in a car show in Omaha, NE and a GORGEOUS 66 2+2 was parked next to me. It left quite an impression. All of these Ponchos are as close as I think I am going to get.

Cool builds. I did not know AMT made a Maverick.

Thanks for sharing. We do not get see many from Australia.

Definitely "Pretty in Pink". 🙂

You have very nice builds there.
