  1. This is what i have so far,and a photoetch three for Impala,Bel Air and Biscayne. There are vacum shaped glass for the front and some clear plate for the rear. Also taillights and bench seat.
  2. Nice! Yes,but even more basic,no metallic paint and dog dish hubcaps.
  3. Hi,been reading and trying to find some info around the 65 Biscayne 2 door. As for 1965,so far i have come to the conclusion the biggest engine option was an 409 L31? Was there any COPO version of this,or is the L31 version what they call COPO? Some say there was an 427 version,maby just wishful thinking,or is this a fact? Any GM gurus on here who know? As for 1965 i notice the 396 425hp engine you find in the Monogram Impala`s very similar to the 427 engine in the 69 Yenko Camaro. Where these engines visual identical? Sorry for all these questions. I have this 65 2 door post in resin i would like to try make somthing cool from. This is sweet: http://munitechmotorcars.com/65~Biscayne~044.html
  4. Very realistic looking
  5. The fog lights and sidepipes make it stand out,look mean in a good way
  6. Nice one Kinda remind me of the one Jay Leno restored.
  7. Sweet GTO,and i`m not even a fan of pro street Great diorama background for the pictures as well
  8. Very nice Impala
  9. I have not done it yet,but planning on it now that i see how big the aftermarket support is. The cars i have built are 20years or more. Long before ebay and internet. Get so many ideas,but as maby many of us know,money dont grow on threes
  10. Got the 59 Impala hardtop from monogram on Ebay.
  11. The damage and rust look very realistic,and this donut box made me laugh
  12. I think you are extremely creativ and talented to come up with all these great builds
  13. Sweet Impala and great detail on the engine

    85 Camaro

    Really nice Camaro.
  15. Long wheelbase too,nice. I notice you are in Arizona,no rust then? The series 1 lwb are getting quite rare in good condition. Any plan on letting it go?
  16. Aha i see. I just realized now that the picture are of wheels for 1:1 cars. They look great on w107,123 and w126.
  17. Nice idea for the SEC. May i ask what kit the Lorinser wheels are from?
  18. I like the design of the coupe with the special rear glass. Great looking cars with the "right" color combination. My car was an 305 with only AC extra if i`m not very wrong. It had manual windows and no sunroof. less to go wrong. It was dead reliable,comfy and quiet. It was an Landau version,i never figured what it means but i think it was the part vinyl roof. Before i sold the car it got dual exhaust,headers,edelbrock performer cam,intake and carburator,it was said to give around 180-200hp. Not sure about numbers but it moved way better than original. I really miss this car a lot. If anyone know about a good 1:1 for under 10000$ i`d be happy to know about it. Donks and lowriders are out of the question.
  19. My first Johan kit came today. I`m kinda happy about it being molded in white and also being complete. I got it cheap because the seller said she could not be 100% sure it was complete.
  20. Is there made any kit or resin-kit of the 77-79 Caprice/Impala coupe? I used to own an 77 with the "fish bowl" rear glass,and would be cool to try to make an replica.
  21. If i wanted an retro looking Mustang i would buy an new Ford Mustang.
  22. Nice! Tires look very realistic.
  23. Very nice collection. Hard to chose,but my favorite is the peach/orange one.
  24. I like the clean look. Great color and shine.
