Drag Monster

Finished interior modifications and my choice for the motor, just waiting for the humidity to drop so I can resume painting.

Started a new project, AMT 63 Vette with modified Miss Deal chassis. Wheels and Tires from parts box.

Here are the decals included in the kit compared to the slixx decals. Any Idea which are more accurate? The Slixx decals have the Gold lace pattern the kit decals have a multi colored circular pattern and allow more of the body color to show through.

The paint was Testors Metallic Turquoise spray can. I removed it and applied it with a airbrush, 2 light coats and a third wet coat with the third coat slightly thinned.

Built out of the box.

Every step of this build was a struggle. I thought this would be a quick box stock build, was I wrong. Almost box stock except for the tires, decals and hood pins.

I'm looking for a blueprinter Service Trailer or one from the Modified stocker Ford Pickup and trailer kit. I have tons of kits to trade or $$

This has to be the worst fitting kit I have ever built. I started this kit thinking it would be a quick box stock build. Almost nothing on this kit fit without reworking the parts. This is the first kit in this series I have built, are the rest as poor fitting.

The AMT Round 2 reissue of Warren Tope's 1973 Mustang has a really nice set of Firestone Gold Line Trans-Am tires.

Beautiful Work on a rare kit. Love the color "Bittersweet Orange" but I must say i'm a bit bias. I once owned a 70 in the same color. I would love to find this kit at a fair price I do have a promo but there is nothing like having a full detail kit. Very nice build!!

I had quite a collection at one time. I liquidated just before the prices started to drop, around 2006-07. I kept the ones I really liked.

Current reissue of the old MPC "Pirates of the Caribbean" series. These kits were highly sought after for years, original kits sell for Big $$ it's great to be able to build one for around $20.00. More from the series to be reissued later in 2018.

Front and rear bumpers as well as the fender ornaments and tail light bezels were finished with alclad. Wheel covers and side view mirror are the original kit chrome.

Killer Build, there isn't one thing I don't like about it!
