Thanks Dann. Stripping went well - thankfully.

Your job is to keep them complete and perfect so the next guy can enjoy building it.

Not a truck expert but I think most haulers were/are single axle/dual wheel in lieu of dual axle/single wheel.

This would be my most expensive build due largely to what I had to pay for the original MPC kit ($100). It was built before I ever dreamed the kit would get re-issued. I spent another $40-$50 buying various decal sets to get the proper markings and $30 for a Polar Lights Torino to use for the chassis/engine. Grand Total: $180

Really taking shape.

I must be a bit odd, I love banjo music and bag pipes, sitar, hurdy gurdy, harpsichord, accordion ....

Finally gave up on my first paint job so the Falcon is soaking in the purple pond for round 2.

Big Oly and a stock Bronco share about as much in common as these two C7s. None the less I'm very happy to have the new kit.

Welcome Kevin.

Excited to see one of these built.

Thanks Mike an AthOz. To lower the car they added a spacer (the silver block in the photo) between the leaf spring and the axle. A silly little detail that I decided to replicate using 0.75mm (.030") flat stock. This lowers the back end 3/4 scale inches. I also replaced the wimpy molded in mounting pins on the axle with something more substantial.

Epoxy does work but a simpler method for me is Future Floor Polish. I just place a large drop and it self levels. It shrinks a lot so a few applications are required. These gauge lenses are done with this method.

Very nice Donald.

Some great race cars, thanks for posting.

Looks like a great project Alan, I'll be following.

Great color Rickard.

Very nice Matt. I finally tracked down the Tyrrell P34/2 from this kit series. I would like to find the 917-10.

Plain old straight pins used in sewing. Small diameter wire will also work. You drill into the part you want to attach, then glue in a section of pin/wire. You drill a corresponding hole where the part is to be attached.

They make good donor kits for an AAR conversion for the new tool Revell.

Welcome David.

Very nice David.

Have a little more cleanup work at the joints but otherwise the cage is finished!

A '34 Ford make a mean looking hot rod. Nice work Daniel.

Very nice Jim.

Smokey's Camaro was infamous but unfortunately for all the wrong reasons. Surprised the Cuda ran with the stock exhaust outlets in the rear valance (I think the restored car has them filled) but that makes it easier for the modeler just install the kit valance.
