A terrific looking build! I'm curious about how that 1/2-cab looks inside the bed... especially the back-wall of the cab. I have the first issue of this kit with the full roof and have wondered how different the 1/2-cab looks. If you could post a pic showing inside the bed more to satisfy my curiosity that would be great!
Also curious if you know where you got those wheels and tires from?

I remember reading someone's opinion a long time ago that the '66 Buick Skylark was the "sexiest" of all the GM A-bodies in that year and I've always agreed with that thought!

Could only find pictures for one of my ancient Mustang builds... this one was originally-built in the late-1970's I think, and rebuilt back in the late-1990's.

Give me a day or two to get these parts on the way to you. I'll let you know when they are in the hands of the USPS.

Your shipping address is all. I'll remove the pieces from my chrome tree but keep some of the tree intact to support these pieces when they're in the hands of our US Postal Service.

Delton: I've got these 1/25 vintage Revell 56 BelAir chrome trim pieces for you. They are still on my chrome tree; can be seen in the middle of this pic. PM me.

These are the kind of projects that really catch my attention! Beautiful execution. I bet there was a lot of work in determining how these components were all going to come together, and you did a phenomenal job making it happen!

Great looking build! I have one of these IMSA Mustang kits in line to start building some day in the near future... other than the old decals, did you have any other challenges when building this kit?

I am looking to trade for the following front suspension pieces, radiator and firewall pieces from the 1/25 AMT/Round2 1967 Ford Mustang kit. These same pieces can be found inside the '67 Shelby GT350 kit and/or multiple reissues of each of these kits.
Lower front suspension Piece #20
Front wheel spindles Pieces #21 & 22
Tie rod Piece #23
Radiator Piece #49
Firewall Piece #45These pieces can be fresh-from-the-tree or from a built-up if in good, restoreable condition. I am not interested in a complete kit; just these parts. I have a fairly extensive parts box to trade from; I am located in Illinois. Thanks!

...and the tinted glass that was so dark you could hardly see thru it!

I'm still watching!

Mike,
I'm sorry.
When I read your post title, I overlooked the word Daytona and thought you were looking for a Charger kit. For that reason, I thought your request was too vague, and I responded in what I thought would be a helpful way.
I was wrong for posting what I did.
I'm publicly offering you my apology here

Excellent build! I'm just starting this kit and have been doing a bit of 1:1 research. The kit's instruction book says to paint the engine block a metal color but I've also seen 1:1 pics showing a large variety of different engine block colors.
Was curious if anyone has any info about 1:1 engine block colors for Land Rovers of this era? In some of my research, it almost looks like the factory painted the engine block in the same paint color used on the body... is that a possibility?

1/16 scale? 1/24 scale? 1/25 scale? 1/43 scale?
1966? 1967? 1968? 1969? 1970? 1971? 1972? 1973? 1974? 2005? 2006? 2018? 2021?
I'm not trying to be a "smart-a__" here, but your description doesn't really "say it all".
Please provide as many details as you can whenever making a Wanted post... I don't think it's possible to provide too much information about what you are seeking... and pictures are extremely helpful, too!
Thanks

Everything looks terrific on this build, but I especially applaud your spark plug wiring... it looks so 1:1 and I will be referring back to your engine pic every time I start wiring an engine for one of my own builds!
-
Really like the new box art, but one thing that looks a bit "off" in the illustration to me is how close that front bumper is to the body and grill... the 1/1's front bumper extends forward quite a bit farther than it appears in this nicely done artwork.
-
Nice build... especially when accomplished in 24 hours! I started thinking about where I would start if I were to attempt a build in 24 hours, and I can't answer my own question!
Did you start with painting major components, like the body, interior tub, chassis? Then, while those are drying start on the engine and wheels?
Anyone who's done a 24 hour build, help me understand your method!

Stunning work here! Your modifications, detail, paint and weathering work are all exceptionally good.
I have always wondered what motivated the truckers of the day to nickname these "Crackerboxes"... curious if it was just the way these cabovers felt like after logging a few hundred miles in one or if there's more to that nickname.

Two outstanding builds! I often rate how much I like a build based on a question I ask myself, "How much would I like to have that model as a 1:1 parked inside my garage?" About 3-6 times a year, I see a build where the question's answer would be a resounding, "Yes!" I gotta say "Yes!" to that little White beauty you've posted here!
-
Really like this build! Where did you get the tires for this build; did they come in the Moebius kit?
-
Just bumping this request up; anybody out there get one of these just reissued kits and decided they want to build it with different front wheels? I'm still searching for a pair... thanks!

Yes, thanks for these new pics!
