  1. Very nice build! Has to be one of the coolest paint schemes ever put on a race car!
  2. The Mongoose 57 Funny car was first issued back in 1989 and the current unit on the shelves is a re-issue. This funny shares its chassis with all the other Monogram/Revell funny cars made in 1/24th since the mid 80's well into the 2000's. With minor alterations and additions, they are all pretty much the same, minus the bodies of course.
  3. Flashpoint makes a 2010 body http://ecsvr.com/fpm/ShopExd.asp?id=162
  4. Go back to the Future! http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=87630&page=1
  5. That is awesome! That looks spot on from one of their best episodes!
  6. We where just having fun, but yes, a quick internet search will almost always do the job for reference material. Most of us have done our homework and looked up most of this stuff if we don't have reference material ourselves. If one hits a real wall on info, this is where you would pick up the search. And most folks here, including myself, will help out. Just at least show us you put some effort into researching the subject.
  7. I am taking the easy way out, it will be in the SS/C scheme that he won the Nationals in.
  8. I am currently working on one. I am building Grumpy's car. I sourced some headers from the Baldwin Motion Camaro, and they are horrible! Need to find a better set. And yes, for some reason, this kit does not seem to have the same "sharpness" as the Cuda kit. Just finished the S&M 70 Cuda, and it is not a bad kit.
  9. I figured one Cougar funny would pretty much cover them all
  10. MPC Mr. Unswitchable GTO MPC Color Me Gone Charger MPC Dyno Don MPC Arnie Beswick Judge
  11. Malco Malcom?
  12. That is awesome! Great idea and executon
  13. I have that Ford, got it on a trade around these parts, and it is mostly a novelty item for my collection.
  14. Almost every military kit ever made!
  15. Visible Man and Woman Polar LIghts Funny Cars
  16. Yes, it is molded in orange. And so was the Heavy Hugger Camaro Funny Car from Revell
  17. I have a soft spot for these 70's pseudo street racers! Wish they would re-release a few of them! And yes, got the Orange Hauler and Crate confused! Thanks for the correction!
  18. I just had a crazy thought. Maybe, just maybe, this tool originated with Polar LIghts. Considering how much show biz stuff they are doing and that almost all of it is in the Snap variety, could it be possible that this tool originated that way? Just a crazy thought
  19. No, it is based or looks like, the Cook and Bedwell dragster
  20. MPC - The General Lee Charger Monogram - Orange Crate Custom Revell - 53 Bel Air Hi Boy Revell - Desert Rat Datsun Pick Up Monogram - Boot Hill Express And random Jo Han kits!
  21. I hate to say it, but, it is almost refreshing to see a Cobra without Ol' Carrol's autograph on the glove box!
  22. To my knowledge, no. Most of the bodies out there are re-pops of the Charlie Allen Dart. The Rams Dart was a weird bird and to make it accurate, quite a bit would have to be scratch built. I am surprised that someone like Speed City Resin has not done one. But, you never know!
  23. What primer are you using?
  24. Super sharp! Very nice job!
