  1. Pictures #4 & #5 were extra bodies laying around. Pics #2 & #3 original kit bodies while #1 & #6 were the reissued. Bought an AMT 69 Mustang sometime back, to small to work. I read someone's thread on using a 1/24 scale with better results.
  2. I think you need to light them tires up, drop the hammer on the "GO" button and white knuckle that unholy amount of flame spewing horse power non Tesla-ticle mo-chine to the Promiseland of the Finish line. When that is all said and done...put it in the box it came in, hop in your car and drive it over to you best friend's house (that's yours truly!) so he can put it in his display case...... Lol..Great job and as we tell each other..."You make me sick!"
  3. As intriguing and surreal the movie "Brazil", I thought it was a fictional concept......but .... Wow!
  4. Best $2 bucks spent. I better there's very few on this forum that paid that much for such a kit. Awesome!
  5. Dang it!...... Now I want to do a 70 Cougar! Fantastic build, impressed with the idea of right hand drive dash. Some of these pot lickers in NC drive on the wrong side, perhaps they need right hand drive to increase some of us life expectancy in NC, lol!
  6. Came close to doing mine in red but had that extra can of Tamiya Lt. Blue itching my finger......yours looks fantastic!
  7. There is no way anyone could miss that one out of a flock of Superbirds gathered on the dealer's lot. Luv me some Mopar and I LUV that one!
  8. Stylish with the background. Could have come out of a Ford Sales brochere...
  9. Well...it was new 60 years ago. Love these Craftsman Series kits. It brings you back to...... (insert your own special place, time, memory, etc..) Wished the top fender body trim was better defined, kinda teetered out in spots on the way to the rear. Kudos for extra taillight lenses & headlights. My fat fingers NFL punt one lenses to the no find zone.....still looking and combing thru the vacumn cleaner bag. Tamiya TS-54 Light Met. Blue & some parts box rims/tire combo so it can look tough around my Mopar crowd.
  10. Lol!. As hot as it has been in NC, I guarantee she's found some AC to enjoy that Coke!
  11. Appreciate the comments and would like to thank all that took a moment of their time to look. The #22 Fireball Roberts Fantasy build was by my good friend Kenny aka Model Guy. Getting together one Sunday afternoon to snap a few pics of his #22 and my Harvick #4, the Sun refused to come completely out and Kenny was having problems photographing his. I couldn't resist getting the both in one picture. Overall the pictures that came out pretty good that day. Thanks again for looking and can't wait to see your next presentation!
  12. Typical OOB. I wished the decals had a orderly placement guide but got through it. Was doing some practice laps when this Gumball Purple Fantasy Mustang come " Fireballing" pass me.....
  13. Model Guy ( Kenny) couldn't get the pictures to post, so let's see if I can get it done for him. It is so cool!
  14. Awesome! We tend to be our worse critics but honestly Kenny that is a great looking model on a throwback scheme that should pop up at Darlington.
  15. It was my plan to make a Sizzler version but the Mr. Norm Super Demon seemed to come together easier. It was the choice of color for the Sizzler that was causing the stumbling until I saw the Dodge EL5 Butterscotch. A darker yellow with a tint of brown still made the Mopar High Impart Color Chart ( Plymouth Bahama Yellow). For some unearthly reason I cannot figure why the rims are slightly darker the the body but they do add a nice contrast. A light brown was used as a base while Krylon Farm and Implement spray can Old Equipment Yellow lays on top. A good friend found a resin twin hood scoop and was gracious enough to "loan" it to me in exchange for the keys.
  16. Weekend Main Street Cruiser!
  17. Seems to me that with all the Mopars being posted lately, those Dodge Boys in the White Hats are stirring up the dust with this one leading the pack!
  18. Lol! On one hand you have a T-Rex of torque and on the other..... a Emu with a badge and a attitude, a valve cover gasket leaking slant 6 and no Slurpee cup holder. Man! That's a toss up! I know what you did.....while Doug and Limue the emu were selling Liberty Mutual policies, you carjacked the Duster, scurried it to the happy grumpy garage.....well, you know the rest. Great looking build made better with the standard Duster grill! Excellent detail of engine and chassis!
  19. When I was a Chrysler FCA Master Tech 2015-2020, I was surprised that owners of the Magnum and PT Cruiser were extremely passionate about their cars....whether it was a extremely clean well kept and a daily beater, money was no object. That is sweet!
  20. Showroom winner ?
  21. 2nd post: It still looks Gorgeous!! Chuck
  22. All very impressive in the factory colors. All that is missing is a diorama of the Nicholas Plymouth Dealership lot with a sign or two saying " This Week's Special" or "Buy Now! Financing Available!" ???
  23. I have a 71 and a 72 that I plan to start on soon.....I truly hope they turn out as Sharp and Great as yours! Gorgeous!
