MPC 1966 Pontiac GTO "Funny Car" version - Complete
Daddyfink replied to mvadrag's topic in WIP: Drag Racing Models
Can't wait to see how it comes out -
The Polar Lights chassis would be your best bet, that is what I plan on using when I slap one together.

I would not waste a correct resin body on that kit, it is not worth it. At least to me.

70s cars as they really were!
Daddyfink replied to Oldcarfan27's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Lime Fire Funny Car was from the late 60's -
Looks like the Chrome Tree is stuck between two worlds. It has some of updated parts from 70's, and then it was halfway backdated for the Heavy Hugger re-issue from a few years back. Notice the Butterflies for the Enderle Injector hat and the Butterfly steering wheel that where part of the update for the last time they re-issued the JJ Camaro. Also the Front Cragar Super Trick wheels center caps under the blower halves.

Round 2/AMT 1977 Pinto - Super Loser (out of box)
Daddyfink replied to Faust's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
No, I will not be mail ordering this one! LOL! -
From my recollection of building one as a kid, yes, it had both engines in it. The copy I have now is one of the updated versions, with a better injector hat, steering wheel and wheels and tires. As for Tamiya paint, I would go with the Mica Blue, with Clear Blue over it

Ramchargers Dragster and Transporter Truck
Daddyfink replied to Raoul Ross's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Hey! Found them. The original issue decals vs. the re-issued versions Top decals are the correct version. -
The rather generic chassis was also used on the the Mustang and Maverick Funny Cars. The engine could be build as a Hemi or SOHC, and neither was any good!

Ramchargers Dragster and Transporter Truck
Daddyfink replied to Raoul Ross's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
The first issue had the correct decals for the real version of this car and not the '68 Woody Gilmore car. The current issues have the longer dragster markings. -
I see what you mean now. Fooled me pretty good
-
That would be really cool! I had the Duster's Last Stand when I was a kid, but never this version. Would love to see it come back!
-
Just fair warning that it uses a stock style body with the standard nose, not a longer nose style funny body.
-
The General Lee Effect? I just hope they at least come up with some cool markings, like they did for the Badman, and make it look the part of a vintage funny car.

Ramchargers Dragster and Transporter Truck
Daddyfink replied to Raoul Ross's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Cool! Now I can leave my original alone! I just hope the corrected the decals for the dragster -
Well, looks like not all of the Funny Car tooling went to Atlantis and no more Tom Daniels markings.

Eagle Gurmey Weslake 1/12 MFH
Daddyfink replied to primabaleron's topic in Other Racing: Road Racing, Salt Flat Racers
Gorgeous build! But I must ask, is the valve cover on upside down? -
I sure hope it comes with new Wheels and Tires
