  1. That would be awesome if you chose to create them Dave. I can provide additional reference photos if you choose to do the project.
  2. Anyone know if a decal set for AJ's Trans-Am debut have ever been produced?
  3. Great looking project.
  4. First hurdle was to come up with a Shelby oil pan in 1/25 scale. I recently learned Revell offered Shelby parts in 1/25 scale in a few of their old hotrod kits. After acquiring engine parts from a '34 Ford (the '27 T also includes this engine) from a forum member I discovered the oil pan was too short to fit the AMT '67 Mustang 289 I plan to use, so I modified the pan to fit. The remaining Revell parts (molded black) will fit the AMT 289 block, but I won't be using them on this project.
  5. This project will be based on specs of a Group II Mustang - may take a liberty or two. Haven't settled on the actual car I plan to build yet but have started the project nonetheless. Here is some history on the Group II Mustangs if you are unfamiliar: http://www.1966shelbynotchbackmustang.com/NotchbackHistory.html

  12. I have it on vinyl - I'll be playing it tomorrow.
  13. The radio station I listened to growing up, WDVE in Pittsburgh always played Arlo Guthrie's - Alice's Restaurant on Thanksgiving. In honor of that tradition I present:
  14. Nice keyboard work in this one.
  15. I believe only the race decals are included, the rest of the kit being stock.
  16. Roger Waters - The Pros and Cons of Hitch Hiking The Pros and Cons of Hitch Hiking is the first solo album by Roger Waters; it was released in 1984, the year before Waters announced his departure from Pink Floyd. The concept was originally envisioned by Waters in 1977 and refined in the early 1980s. In its completed form, it rotates around a man's scattered thoughts during his midlife crisis. These are explored on a dream journey during which he takes a road trip through California, commits adultery with a hitchhiker he picks up along the way, attempts to reconcile with his wife by moving to the wilderness, and finally ends up alone but with greater insight into a common human compassion. Along the way he also faces other fears and paranoia. The entire story is framed in real time as a fitful dream taking place in the early morning hours of 4:30:18 am to 5:12:32 am on an unspecified day. At the end of the dream, the man wakes up lonely and contrite and turns to his real wife for comfort, presumably having processed his crisis. In July 1978, Waters played some of the music demos of what he had pieced together, but he also played parts of another album he was preparing titled Bricks in the Wall to the rest of his bandmates in the group Pink Floyd. After a long debate, they decided that they preferred the concept of Bricks in the Wall instead, even though their manager at the time, Steve O'Rourke, thought that Pros and Cons was a better-sounding concept, and David Gilmour deemed Pros and Cons stronger musically. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Pros_and_Cons_of_Hitch_Hiking
  17. Breakfast anyone? An audio snippet: https://public.fotki.com/steelers43/audio/20211122-190245.html
  18. The 365GTB Racing was never issued to the best of my knowledge, only the street going version. Information I complied on the EM kits and variations: https://race-car-models.proboards.com/thread/1173/fujimi-enthusiast-kits
  19. Nice work Gary. I have this kit in the stash as well - someday maybe.
  20. I'll Be Your Girl
