Wow! Very nice. '72 has always been my favorite year for Road Runners. Good job.

Never care for looks of the car. But, you did a great job on it Bert.

Beautiful. Still my favorite year for Torino.

Wow! Beautiful job. I'm always impressed when one modifies these Fords in the manner you have Ferby. Very clean build. And it has the right "look". Very nice.

I love the blue stock one. That's exactly how I hope mine turns out. The same blue on blue, but without the hood stripes.

Another nice one, Tulio. As always, I'm impressed with your builds.

So I'm not the only one who has purchased the above kit. I've always liked looks of the Citation's Club Coupe body style. The hatchbacks, not so much. Revell/Monogram's Citation is nice, but. It's a bit of mishmash at it's not correct in a way that it can built as pure factory "stock" Citation. Beautiful job on both Citations NJ. I impressed. They may have been crappy little cars. But, I still like the looks of them.

Looks very nice. Great job on the smaller details.

I'll see if I can make it. It would be very nice to meet you.

That is the one.

I'm aware of the facts you've just noted. And I'm also aware of who you are. And your background in Morpars. Your one of the "experts" here I trust on that subject. So, am I correct on the availability of redline tires on Chargers? Or not?

I too would like to see a stock version of the Cutlass kit. Or at least a non Hurst version of the 4-4-2.

It's amazing how many people don't seem to understand that. Sometime the obvious need repeating. The title of the thread is"Too Many '69 Camaros and '32 Fords." If person understands why? Why are they bring it up? They say, there no stupid questions. In this case I'm not so sure. Too Many '69 Camaros and '32 Ford. Of coarse there are. Duh.

Very cool! Very nice.

A very nice clean build. It looks good.

Rommel's Rod is a fun one. I built the last version. I love all those early Tom Daniels designed kits. I'm still waiting from Revell/Monogram to bring back Tom's Poison Pinto (the green version) and the Mean Maverick. Another old Monogram kit I'd like to see, but I'm not holding my breath on, would be the Ghost of the Red Baron.

The Dodge Neon and Olds Aurora were done as a promo at the time, by the same company. And didn't Polar Lights do the Holden GTO? I'll have to do some digging. But, I seem to remember buying one?

If you think there are too many '69 Camaro, '32 Ford, and Corvette kits. I have an easy solution for that. Don't buy them. '69 Camaros, '32 Fords, and Corvettes of all years are popular. So are '57 Chevs. So the companies make kits of them. In turn making money. Even though I too would like to see more of other things. Like a '51 Studebaker or a '57 Olds. I know the model companies will never make as much money off of those kits. As they will off of '69 Camaros, '32 Fords, '57 Chevys, and all Corvettes. An sorry to say, but the primary purpose the of model companies is to make money. The model kits they offer are ways to make that money. Plus I really don't mind the popular kits listed above. I have several. And depending on which of the above kits are reissued, will be adding more of them to my collection.

What does "craptastic" mean? Is that good or bad? I'm guessing bad, from what else I'm reading above. Again, I think the kit is pretty nice. And I do consider it a curbside. Only the top of engine is seen. From what I remember, I don't think the rest of the engine is there in this kit. It's been 10 years or so since I built mine. So I maybe wrong on that. But, the one I built. I remember went together just fine. Looked good. And like the real 2005 Ford GT when it was done. It's a nice kit.

Opened up my '70 Charger and started doing the sub assembly work on the kit. It's a very nice kit. The only thing I don't understand, is why Revell gave us pad printed redline tires with this. Don't get me wrong, I love redline tires. I wish Revell had offered them in their other kits. Like their '67 Corvettes for instance. The redline decals in those kits are a pain in the you know what. And don't look all that good. But, in real life, redlines were pretty much done by 1970. Dodge did not offer them as options on the '70 Charger from all the info I've been looking at. 1970 is the year of the white letter tires. This was big that year, and for many years after. And Dodge did offer white letter tires on the Chargers in several different sizes that year. But, no redlines. Despite my complaining above. I will still be using the redlines in this kit, on this model. Yet, redlines really only belong on new cars built from 1966 - 1969. I get a kick out the complaints about the '70 Charger R/T door side scoops. And how many people don't like them. Including me. But, they are correct for this car. And you know many people would be screaming bloody murder if Revell hadn't included them. At least they are not molded right into the door. If you don't like them, you can just leave them off. Though the door scoops are the one feature I don't like on the '70, over the 68's and 69's, I'll be using them. Since that is correct for this car. I know it makes no sense. I dislike the door scoops, yet I'm using them because they are correct. And I'm also using the redline tires, even though they are not correct. I don't always follow logic. I build them the way I like. Mostly correct.

Looked at few box built custom '62 Buicks on line. After seeing what I saw, I see no need to add another '62 Buick to my collection soon.

Why's that a shame? It's a very nice "curbside" kit. Now, the Gulf decals are not enough to get me to buy another one. But, I do like the kit.

This one is tempting. Even though I have enough of all three kits. Three classics kits, and great box art. I may have get one. Even if I never get around to building. I'm waiting for my Datsun pickup truck. Most of the rest of what's been anouced in the above list, has been reissued enough, and I have in my collection.

I hope your right. I like the shake scoop on that car a lot. Scoop or not, fixing the front end will get me to buy the kit.

A little better. But not much. I be passing on this one. Thank god, it's not the red one. Ugh!
