A fun one I got today.

will make you

How much is left in the above kit, to convert it back to stock? I hope you do a review so we can see what comes in these boxes.

But he melted

skin falling off

I don't know if you can get it in the UK. But this stuff works pretty good.

The big question. What the kit? I'm always curious. I'm guessing it's an AMT kit.

I agree. I think you've nailed it. As much as I'd like to JoHan's models come back, I really doubt it's going to happen. Such a shame.

390, 410, 428. You can claim it to be anyone of those. All three look the same. I'm willing to bet, that AMT claimed it to be the 428 at the time.

I don't think there was a '69 annual of a full-size Mercury. '66 was the last year of a kit or promo for full-size Mercurys. 1967 on, it was Cyclones, Cougars, Comets, and Capris for Mercurys in scale.

Wow! Neat build. It turned out great. ?

'53 and '54 Corvettes were all 6-cylinders. The V-8 was introduced for 1955. And all '53 Corvettes were painted Polo White from the factory. Other colors followed, starting in Corvette's second year.

Supersized? Makes me

Oh and I've been called worst things than a "wormhole." Wait until you what they call me in that "alternate universe." Bwahaha! ?

You have some warped thinking Mr. Drysdale, Chris. I respect that. You've given me plenty to think about. The only trouble is, I'm now a little scared of using my Tamiya Flat Earth paint. For consequences that may come from it? Then again, if I'm creating an "alternative universe" when I do use the paint. Like you suggest. Does make me god in that universe? And will I be a loving and benevolent god? Or an evil and wrathful god? Am I good enough to take on this much responsibility? You can see my dilemma? A heck. I'm mean and evil. And love power. I'm going for it! Bwahaha!

Like in Timbuktu

1/25 or 1/24 is preferred. But, 1/32 is better than nothing. Who makes a 1/32 scale Cobra coupe? Is it styrene or resin? Is it readily available? And affordable?

Snow. And more snow ❄️. Can't get away from the darn stuff! Notice the the shape of the snow on the above tree. It's the shape of Minnesota! And that face! Old Man winter is mocking us! There is no hope!

Why there is not a common styrene kit of the above car baffles me? Still one of the great looking, and great race cars of all time.

Good. '67 is still my favorite year for the big Pontiacs, so I'm looking forward to seeing it.

It's going to be tough to replicate a '79 though '81 Mustang GT. Since Ford didn't offer a Mustang GT between 1969 and 1982. The closest thing to the GT in 1979, '80, and '81 were the gaudy, overdressed (IMO) Mustang Cobras. Thankfully they cleaned up the car a bit with the reintroduction of the GT in 1982.

I'm surprised no one has commented on this one yet. Other than the missing headlamp and rear license plate covers, it looks pretty good. I've got a bit of a soft spot for those early six cylinder Corvettes. I think they're pretty cool.

As always, beautiful work from you Steven. I'm hoping to see this car "in the flesh" at the next NNL here in the Twin Cities this May. It's always a pleasure see you and your builds.

Very nice!
