Last post for night. Bill Elliott 1982 #9 Melling Thunderbird. Slixx decals and Testors paint. Bill Elliott 1982 #9 Mell-Gear Thunderbird. Slixx decals and Testors paint. Side numbers too big.

My dad built the MPC Sta-Power back in the 70's and gave it to me (long gone now). I built this from the Jo-Han kit and Fred Cady decals in the early nineties for him. He past a few years ago, so its back with me. Needs some repair.

The side spear is aluminum speed tape, like they used back in the day. Rick Rudd 1994 #10 Tide Thunderbird.

I bought several Carl Edwards #99 Office Depot Fusions for cheap off the old GoMotorBids. Sure miss those deals. Bill Elliott 2006 #00 Burger King Monte Carlo SS.

The saga continues... Tonight I'll add repainted NASCAR diecasts and a few others I built years ago. Carl Edwards 2009 #60 Scotts Wild Bird Food/Songbird Fusion. Pretty car built for wife, she loves cardinals. Don't remember decals or color used. Travis Kvapil 2008 #28 LaFayette Ford Fusion. I always thought this Fred Lorezen paint scheme. It made a nice clean car. Don't remember decals, but the color is Wimbeldon white. . Carl Edwards 2004 #99 Superchips F-150. This picture does a lot for these decals. Don't remember where they came from, but they look like a photocopy. Paint is some old Duplicolor bright white. Carl Edwards 2005 #99 Scotts Fusion. JWTBM decals? I think the paint is Duplicolor bright white and some Duplicolor engine paint bright green. Carl Edwards (see a theme?) 2004 #99 no sponsor Fusion. Crappy who knows decals and black paint. Bill Elliott 2009 #21 Motorcraft Fusion. More crappy decals but the paint is original Action, I just removed the pad print.

Had to make some changes to the prepaint to try and match real car. 1969 Mercury Cougar Eliminator. Another kit with old disease. 1971 Dodge Charger. Great results with little hastle. 1971 Plymouth Duster. Added stock parts. Nice kit to build. 1971 Plymouth Duster. Slightly different. 1972 Chevy Chevelle SS. Nice easy build.

Some more AMT Custom/pro Shop builds. 1958 Plymouth Belvedere. Nice to build. Sad the side spear is messed up. 1958 Edsel Pacer. Great build with nice detail. 1962 Ford Thunderbird. Nice car great detail. 1966 Buick Lowrider. HeHe, didn't like the tiny tires, so I used the wheels fom a 65 Galaxie. 1966 Ford Mustang. Another kit showing its age. 1967 Chevy Impala SS. I tried to make the modified kit look stock. Wild color.

I had to put a bunch of recent builds and diecasts under glass. So, I needed to rearrange my display shelf. I thought I might show off some past builds or diecast repaints. I will limit each post to six pictures. If anyone has a problem, let me know. My first collection is AMT Custom/Proshop cars that I detailed and foiled. I loved these kits because when I couldn't paint or had limited time, it gave instant gratification. 1948 Ford Woody. Nice kit to build but I wasn't to crazy about the chassis and windows. 1955 Chevy Nomad. Nice looking car. The tailgate/window is kind of fussy. 1956 Ford Fairlane. Easy build amazing kit for age. 1957 Chrysler 300. Big beautiful car with great detail. 1957 Ford Thunderbird. The kit design shows its age but, still looks good. 1957 Chevy BelAir. I think everyone has built this kit at least once. The extra 409 dispays nice.

Fantastic looking replica!

Beautiful job! Looks great.

Great looking result from what I'm sure was a frustrating build.

Looks great! Love the color and wheels.

Thanks for all the great comments. Paint is Tamiya TS-16 yellow decanted and airbrushed, one coat of mop and glo. My next project is the Moebius Chrysler 300. I'm looking forward to tackling this car.

OK, Needed some relief from my last headache build. I looked at all the kits around the house and picked this much maligned gasser that many of us built as a kid. I've had this one since Monogram reissued them with original art a few years ago. Most of the prebuild was done back then so it just needed paint and glue. I have to say it is simple, but everything fits and I like the completed look. Also, I had good luck with the airbrush again. Nothing fancy, but I did add a little color to highlight the interior. I also tried to duplicate a gold metalflake rim with turnsignal amber. Fixed that exhaust from the original 55 Chevy mold. Nothing fancy, just paint and I can't figure out why this thing keeps rotating. Tried to duplicate the box art by smoothing the turn indicators. Cut out the drivers window to see inside. Thanks for looking.

Haven't seen this kit in years. Look forward to the results.

My wife thinks the new Fiats are so cute. Then I showed her one of the originals and now she wants one of them too. Great looking model!

Looks sharp and ready for action!. Great job.

Great looking model. I just picked up one from Hobby Lobby yesterday and love the features of the kit.

Looks great! That color is sharp.

Lots of great detail. Good luck with the body.

Nice color. I haven't seen this design for MM paint on the shelf. Is the color new?

Real, with some photo work.

Great looking car. Nice detail work.
