  1. Thank you everyone!
  2. Thank you everyone! I just had to build this and very happy how it came out.
  3. Well i thought I was gone, I've been on here since 2012 and last night getting on said I was banned. Had to allow third party cookies and reset my account. Have no idea what that was all about. Anyway I have opening self locking deck lid and trunk framing started.
  4. Looks like the only part of the 73 body, and the front and rear bumpers are going to be used. The rest is all from the 71 kit. The 73 hood I have is red plastic and I'm afraid to try painting it white, the 71 hood actually fits and looks better. Couldn't believe how easy this is going together. Using the disc brakes and Dana rear end from the Revell 70 'Cuda. CB antenna will mount using a magnet.
  5. Body back into one piece, 73 interior bucket fits with the 71 chassis. Really surprised it's fitting, only a little sanding on the trunk extensions was all it needed.
  6. Well a couple hours cutting and the damaged windshield and melted roof are gone. Going to work on getting the 71 charger chassis lined up and glue the roof in tomorrow. I've never done a white car before, so I'm thinking white car red interior, satin red hood, fender tops, bumblebee stripe ,and steel rims.
  7. Well I'm entering with a '73 Charger. This is all I have to start with🤣🤣. Probably going to use an AMT '71 Charger for the rest of it.
  8. Building a '70 Cougar Fastback to go with the '69.
  9. Not going to make the finish line this year, lost all motivation on the GTO. I finished a couple builds this year , one started 16 years ago and another from 2016. Just started building again a month ago. I will try again next year.
  10. My attempt of a 24 hour build.
  11. This was mostly built from the parts box.
  12. Finished this up a couple of nights ago.
  13. Started this over sixteen years ago, finally finished.
  14. Finally finished this up and took pictures
  15. I have door panels,not perfect. But I thinkit will look good after it's painted.
  16. Still have one seat to work on then the door panels. Don't think I'll ever attempt seats like this again. Got bumpers fitting pretty good and some small details that no one will ever notice.
  17. Trying to make the Chevelle interior at least look like a stock GTO.
  18. The GTO is on it way, A 64 Chevelle gave up its chassis engine compartment an interior pan. The rear seat and 67 Chevelle front seat will get new inserts and will have to scratch build the door panels. I cut the headlight buckets and grill off the bumper. Glued the headlight buckets inplace and sanded the fenders to fit them. I'll have to grab another kit for the bumper and the rear bumper will need widened.
  19. Not sure it's the best choice. Headlights are going to be hard to make them fit good, the rear bumper is way to narrow. Interior is not good , front sears are the wrong year. And the chassis pan has to go. Definitely going to be a challenge to make it look good.
  20. Put me down with a 67 GTO
  21. You can use the chassis interior inner fenders , a pillars and part of the roof to make it more accurate.. The 73 74 Roadrunner had an isolated torsion bar and k member mount but it still better than the kit pieces.
