  1. ps, I have a 67 Mopar parts book . So I will ck to verify what mldgs choices were avail
  2. Yes I did But the shape of the seat is NOT accurate to a 1967 Belvedere . As the belvederes back seat DID NOT have that same sunk in center like the GTX did Plus the pattern isnt even close . But it was the only thing I could find with a reasonable search effort IF I were to do another 67 Belvedere conversion build. I will take a good look at trying to use the above 3d printed seats instead. The pattern is a little different . But the shape is more accurate to my eyes I have his entire interior conversion on hand for another build Ive got planned If one were to go the 3d seat direction, It will require a hand made pkg tray
  3. Im pretty sure the mldg had, red, white or black in them , Not 100% though As far as the bench seat https://www.ebay.com/itm/226898568646 https://www.ebay.com/itm/226816604362
  4. I was at MCACN and rumors are the reserve is over 100mil
  5. Following along here , as this is One of my favorite kits to build You gonna try to replicate any particular car ?
  6. Gents I will ck this weekend I " might" have the Johan roadrunner bezels and lenses
  7. Just got back from the MCACN show in Chicago Friend of mines 1968 Coronet RT vert made it's debut The only 426 Hemi 4spd vert to exist I already have a replica of this car started and on the bench using the MPC body and interior combined with the chassis and drivetrain along with everything that goes along with it from the Revell 1968 Charger
  8. Following along here. As I have a few of these same AMT kits Id planned to use the Revell TBolt kit as a chassis doner, but this may change that plan
  9. Thanks, I never expected I would like it as much as I do when I dug out of the oblivion a while back. Not that I can do anything about it now, But I Wish now I had done better on the paint work back then. Such is life I guess Im happy with it overall The car will look great in my case with all the other door slammers I have from the era.
  10. Most of my life in the Burlington Area .
  11. Born and raised in Northern Ky. Moved to southern AZ the summer of 2018
  12. 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
  13. 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
  14. Anyone have this decal sheet Have question
  15. 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
  16. 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
  17. 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.
  18. 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
  19. Very , Very nice. Perfect from every angle
  20. 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
  21. 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
  22. 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
  23. 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
  24. A decal sheet that came with a 67 GTX kit I picked up. And really have no desire to use these Anyone interested Pm lets talk
