    Thanks guys. Too bad your pictures aren't digital Bill, would love to see them.

    Nice. Andretti is running the New Beetle in Rallycross, this would be a good kit bash project as well.
  3. Thanks Randy. Misted on the Champagne Gold and flat-out hated it. The metal flake was way to big. I'm in the process of over-spraying the solid color Sand Beige. May not be 100% accurate but it looks much better - stay tuned.

    Thanks David. Frank, doing Swede Savage's car because I believe he was the only one that ran with the multi-color stripes. Found this great artwork piece while doing research.

    '70 Cuda T/A

    The AMT timing cover doesn't fit the block I am using very well, but stay tuned.
  8. Have tried several times to post a new thread "On the Workbench". Each time I submit it I get "404 Error Page Cannot be Found"
  9. I’m in a trans-am mood so I’ll take a whack at converting the Revell kit into a road racer. The hood is from the 1:24 scale Monogram AAR Cuda kit modified to fit. The head and valve covers are also from the AAR kit, intake manifold comes from the AMT 340 Duster, carb is a resin Holley. The block is the 426 from the base kit used to hopefully avoid fit issues down the road. The kicker bars are .062 rod. I removed the water outlet from the top of the timing cover. The air cleaner is from the Revell '66 Mustang with the sealer flange cut from .015 flat stock.
  10. Nice work Brian. I was tinkering with the street parts to see if I could get them to work with thoughts of a trans-kit but I don't think there is a market for one. My true intentions are to build the Trans-Am race car.
  11. Thanks Ray. Never saw the movie but I found the trailer.
  12. Built from scratch by my daughter who just finished her freshman year in college studying graphic art. Her description: A miniature model of Claptrap from the Borderlands video game franchise. Made from polymer clay, and bits of wire. Finished with a couple of light washes of acrylic paint to emphasize the shadows and highlights. The base is made from polymer clay as well. For scale reference:
  13. Said kitbashing project.
  14. Love seeing race cars up close and in detail. Thank you for posting this.
  15. Thanks for your confidence in me Bill. My intention is to build the Trans Am race car, which ran a single 4-barrel as required. While I was tinkering I thought I would see what I could do with the stock parts. I read recently that Chrysler had hoped to run the six-pack but the SCCA clamped down on multi-carb intakes after the '69 season.
  16. Very nice work Art.

  19. Wish we could get this master into the hands of a more reliable resin caster.
  20. I like the look.
  21. Very nice!
  22. Yea one would assume an AAR would be issued by Revell at some point - but when?
  23. Thanks Mark - I haven't made any mods to the front cover yet. My intent is to build the Trans Am car which ran a destroked 340 but while I was fiddling I thought I would see if I could get the AAR parts to work as well.
