  1. Does it look like I've got most all of the pieces to build this AMT Ford Mustang Cobra V-8? Anybody have a scan of its instruction sheet that they could post or PM me?
  2. All, Thanks; I certainly appreciate the wealth of vintage kit knowledge found on this forum! These parts represent a supercharger arrangement like none I've ever seen before. The info provided on the 1:1 is extremely helpful to me as well. Now, just to find a project that would inspire me to clean-up and restore these supercharger parts and find an engine worthy of putting them on! Any suggestions out there?
  3. I received these groups of 1/25 Engine Parts trees, and was wondering if anyone might be able to tell me what I've got here. The bags these trees were in was labelled "1990's Chevy V-8", but I can see a Ford Cobra logo molded into the top of one of the intake pieces. I think I've got incomplete parts trees for two different engines. Anybody have an idea which engines and/or kits these might have come from? Thanks!
  4. Some more info; these are painted Red but were produced in Black colored styrene.
  5. So I recently received in a trade, the 1/25 Engine parts shown in the following 2 photos, and I was hoping someone from this forum might be able to educate me as to what type of blower/intake setup this is and if it actually represents a 1:1 setup. Also, does anybody have any idea what kit these engine pieces might have come from? Thanks!
  6. Your hard work really paid off! This is the most outstanding build of this vintage kit that I have ever seen! Very impressive!
  7. Dang-it Bill, now I gotta go and buy another one of these Mercury kits when that drag-version comes out! Will the wheelbase on this Mercury chassis be a pretty much straight fit under a 1/25 mid-1960's Mustang body?
  8. You nailed it! Great work!
  9. Really like this build! Paintwork and color scheme are perfect! And it'll be hard for the local police to radio-in who's car it is when they're speeding around town in it, too!
  10. Simply stunning build... stunning!
  11. Beautiful build! Your paint and detail work is outstanding! Man, this "car" looks more like a spaceship to me! It isn't hard to see the future of automobiles when looking at one of these Lambos!
  12. Gerry, Thanks for posting these pics and providing the info! Both of these kits were on my "let's wait and see..." list, but your pics have probably moved both onto the "gotta get 'em!" list.
  13. Merry Christmas to me... Merry Christmas to me... Thanks for the update Dave!
  14. Really nice build! What tires did you use on this build?
  15. Wow! Incredibily nice builds! Your paintwork is outstanding! I flashed-back to the early-1970's when I looked at your first pic; my grandmother had a neighbor on one side that drove a 1966 Bonneville in Turquoise and the neighbor on the other side had a 1970 or 1971 Bonneville in a Dark Brown color. Thanks for the flashback!
  16. Wow! That is the finest-looking build that I have seen of this kit! Extremely clean with exceptional paintwork!
  17. I think it would be nice if Revell included a nicely-detailed 3 to 5 piece trailer hitch as an optional add-on assembly for this new kit.
  18. Beautiful car Myron! Sure would like to see some underhood pics of its engine compartment. Thanks for posting these pics.
  19. Really, really like this build! Your paint and foil-work looks outstanding! I like the shift-lever detail added to the steering column. This will become inspirational when the Moebius '65 Mercury Comet hits the retail shelves.
  20. Wow! The color-scheme is awesome, and your paintwork looks exceptional! I've never seen the tailight bezels molded into the body on a '57 Ford, and that little detail has a dramatic effect on the overall look; i really like it!
  21. Really like this concept and build! Nicely done! Did you also use the Mustang's chassis and suspension components?
  22. Excellent looking build! Your paintwork looks exceptional! This is one of my favorite kits and subject matter.
  23. Thanks Mr. Obsessive. Your Chrysler Turbine build was extremely helpful. Now I just gotta find me an Avanti kit and get started.
  24. Any updates on the upcoming release of this new kit? (Can you tell that I'm anxiously waiting in anticipation)!
  25. Agreed, Charlie. I don't own this Avanti kit; just hoping someone on this forum who does own the Avanti kit might post some pics so I can determine if the door fit issues would be bad enough to deter me from buying it.
