  1. boss 302 mustang added a post in a topic has anyone ever scratch built a funny car starter?   

    The AMT Nitro Charger had a Jim Davis starter in it.  Try using a diesel truck starter and adding a handle.

    Uh.........I was talking about building kits.........making do with what you have to work with.......which is what a real modeler does


  3. boss 302 mustang added a post in a topic Some more Round2 surprizes!   

    If you're a real modeler, you should be able to come up with something good out of anything........detail paint a flat pan chassis or just paint it flat black if you want......the old annuals can come out really nice with a little effort.   There's no reason that every kit has to have a high part count.....these guys need to use their imagination and work with what they have
    I like to get old builts, gluebombs, even, and try to rebuild......I don't need 150 part kits to make me happy.......but I have been a builder since like 1962

    You can't just take stuff from one tool and put it in another


  5. boss 302 mustang added a post in a topic '66 Barracuda "Hemi Under Glass" --To be cont'd......   

    You do realize that this kit is not really a Hemi Under Glass, but rather Tom McEwen's Plymouth Dealers car with Hemi Under Glass decals.  The real Hemi Under Glass kits are much different.


  6. boss 302 mustang added a post in a topic John Milner's FED from More American Graffiti   

    The hemisphere kit is the AMT Don Garlits Wynn's Jammer.

    Try using the Revell XKE Jaguar hardtop on the AMT 289 Cobra


  8. boss 302 mustang added a post in a topic Fenderwell Headers in Resin?   

    MCW has the old Jo-Han 426 wedge fenderwell headers in resin and also Chevy fenderwell headers

    Radius rods are not used with a 2 leaf spring front axle.......they are used with a single buggy spring front axle.......so the kit is accurate in that respect. And please remember this is a circa 1966 kit.....this is what we got in those days


  10. boss 302 mustang added a post in a topic 1/25 AMT '69 Cougar Eliminator   

    At one time, this kit had the MPC 428 in it and was labeled Cougar 428CJ.....I believe the engine was later used in the '73 Cougar


  11. boss 302 mustang added a post in a topic History of AMT & MPC's Action Line Pickup Kits   

    I believe that the '67 decals have been discussed in the past over on the Spotlight board and the Kevorkian Bros service station information is accurate as it was a real service station.


  12. boss 302 mustang added a post in a topic Lindberg's '64 Plymouth "Lawman"   

    Most of the '64 wedge cars were hardtops...the sedans were A990 hemi cars

    I have three of his shorty FED bodies and they are very nice. Haven't used them yet though.


  14. boss 302 mustang added a post in a topic Revell '41/'43 Willys Pickup Gasser   

    Those revell gasser kits....including the Austin and Henry J.....have the worst example of a 427 Cammer out there!


  15. boss 302 mustang added a post in a topic Anybody know the real deal on Tenax7R and Ambroid Pro-Weld?   

    Plastruct Bondene is a good product as well which you might like to try
