STOP THE PRESS! All new 1977 Oldsmobile NASCAR kit
'70 Grande replied to DanR's topic in WIP: NASCAR
Agree with this 100%! -
Wow... simply Wow! Beautiful work on this build! Wow!
-
Beautiful builds; each and everyone of them!
-
Beautiful build! I always thought the Piedmont Nascars were one of the best color-schemes of that era!
-
ooooohhh... I really like your little Red Coupe build, but the Dark Blue Sedan looks even better to me!!! What Dark Blue paint did you use on that one? Where did those wheels and tires come from? That little 4-banger looks awesome; show me a top-view pic of it!!! Tell us more about this sedan build... please!!!
-
Really sweet hot rod! Everything about it looks extremely-well executed! Sure would like to see another post from you showing that Flat Black Tudor in the background of that last pic, too!

Excellent looking build! My one pet-peeve with many of those vintage Modified Stocker kits was the one piece chassis that, (to my eye), just looked terrible. You've done a great job of solving that problem with your chassis modifications on this build; might have to try your technique myself! Great job!

Excellent build! I followed along during your build-thread and was hoping someone posting in that thread might make some comments on your motor in this build. I am in the process of rebuilding a glue-bomb Revell Cherry Pie '31 Ford Panel Delivery kit, and had figured the little 4-cylinder motor was too far-gone to rebuild. But then, I fell for the nostalgia of it and decided to rebuild it; problem is finding information on hot rod versions of these vintage, little Ford 4-bangers. I fully understand how to build and wire a V-8, but exactly how the intake, wiring and exhaust all comes together on one of these vintage 4-cylinder Ford motors confuses me a bit... anybody have a good source for some vintage hot rod Ford 4-cylinders engine pics and info so I can accurately rebuild my Cherry Pie motor?

A beautiful build! It has just the right "look" to it! Welcome to the forum; please post more of your builds and projects!
-
Really, really nice! That repair work you did to the roof looks outstanding! i wonder how it got that original damage?!?! Your paintwork and finish work looks great, too... nice save!
-
Does anyone know what the release-date is for this reissue?

Excellent build of a challenging kit! It has the right "look" to it! Sure would like to see some more pics of the engine compartment, (from above), and chassis, too!

Wow! I'm pretty sure a photo of this taken outdoors would convince me it's a 1:1 build! Outstanding work! -
Beautiful build... both of them! Clean work in both of these; they're quite a pair!
-
It surprises me how much larger overall that #62 1976 Torino is when compared to the others; never thought the size-increase in those 3rd-generation Torinos was that significant.
-
Wow!!! Those are all very impressive builds! Its difficult to pick which one stands out the most to my eye, and I'm sure everybody who reads this post will have their own favorite! Sure would like to see some posts of each of these individually so we can better see the great execution you've put into each one!
-
Nice! Has a great look and "feel" to it! Your paintwork and color choices are excellent! There's alot to like about this build!

What engine is inside this kit? Is it a 390, or larger? Is this kit, (even tho it was originally-issued several decades ago), a fairly accurate representation of the 1:1? Thoughts; anybody?

I'm actually in-progress on the 1991 issue of this kit. It can be built as a regular LT-1 or as a ZR-1. The differences are the wheels, (Chevy chromed-Rally wheels for the LT-1; open-steel wheels for the ZR-1), and the 350 engine's ignition, (covered shield arrangement for the LT-1 and open distributor and coil for the ZR-1 version). The dashboard is blanked-out where the radio should be, and the decal sheet includes a radio-face decal, so that difference is covered, too.

Really, really like this build! I agree; raising the roof was an excellent adjustment! A really sweet ride!
-
A beautiful build! What is that little beast when built; about 4-1/2" long?!?!?
-
Beautiful build! I have always thought the Red tailights on this kit seemed a little "off" if compared to the 1:1. My eye tells me that the tailights are a little too tall vertically, but I can't confirm if that's what my eye is seeing or not. My compliments on your execution of these tailights; it appears as though you've added some vertical, chromed-strips to break each tailight down to three, long, horizontal lense sections. Can you comment on how you enhanced those tailights for me? Thanks!
