Tom Daniel is one of my favorite designers of all time. I like the stuff his son Kelly is doing in updating the looks of his dad’s designs. Yet not ruining his dad’s original designs.

Fantastic looking Ford.

Beautiful. Amazing work.

Atlantis sent out a email today that they are taking pre-orders on the announced 1/32 funny cars. I got my order in immediately, for the four. The Charger, Duster, Camaro, and Mustang. I hope more are going to appear shortly down the road. I remember these as being fun little builds. And I’m partially into this hobby because of the fun of it.

Even though I liked the last one I built. I want to do another one. I grew up with real Comets as a kid. Even though we didn’t have a ‘64, or a fancy version of the Comet like a Caliente. I remember my dad driving a friends new ‘64 Caliente two-door one afternoon, and both of us lusting over it. It beat the heck out of (in more ways than one) our “Plain Jane” ‘61 two-door sedan. Or even our fairly nice looking, later ‘67 Comet 202 two-door. (With the late season Sport Coupe package! But, still a six-cylinder.) So I will anyways have a soft spot for the ‘64 Comets. Especially the two-door Caliente hardtops.

Fun seeing the slot car variations. Great photos.

I’m not signing up to join their app, to see some guy talk about models. There are plenty of good model builders, reviewers, and collectors on YouTube. I’m not taking on another separate app just for Motor Trend.

Looks great. But where’s Beauty? You promised Beauty and the Beast. All kidding aside. Very nice.

I just thought about this. The Baja Beast is based on VW bus. So no worries about cooling it! Volkswagen buses where all air cooled. ?

Very, very kool. A you don’t have to worry about radiators and such on vehicles like these. In world they come from, they all have a “special” coolant, just in the engine, that keeps them cool and running just fine. The exhaust and heat in the shared compartment with the driver and passenger is not a problem either. As long as one looks kool driving it. in all seriousness, great job.

Very kool and mean looking Chevy II. I like it.

Thanks Larry.

Back to the original poster, Túlio. Nice Maverick and Chevrolet Opala. Fun to see variations of vehicles not sold sold in the United States. Very cool.

Despite the warping, quality control issues I’m seeing here, I put my order in for the Moebius ramp truck this afternoon. I’m hoping the one I get is okay. After reading and seeing what I’ve seen here, I’m a little bit worried it may not be.

Thank you. And very cool. I want one.

I’d love to see what’s in the box. I hope you post more pictures.

Thank, and whoops! Kelly not Keith? My mistake.

Too (or is that Two?) kool! Pun intended.

Very cool. Any more photos?

As long as its “beautiful”. ?

Ah. Good.

Very nice. I like the colors you choose.

The time has finally come to bite the bullet and pick this one up. I have a feeling I’ll regret it once it disappears off the shelves. It’s too kool to pass on any longer.

Cool. Any of those old drawings still around that you can show us?

Somebody said at our model car club meeting last night, that Round 2 was planning on reissuing the old AMT ‘64 Comet Caliente kit again in the near future. Any body know if there is any truth to this? And who then will be the first one to make a replica of the Comet from this video? ?
