.......so true, and that's why it can be a bit confusing for some...in the past I have actually seen builds using the drag tunnel ram with one 4 barrel, and the 2 barrel mated with it.......the Ace...........

.....RECENT UPDATES OF SOME BUILDING QUESTIONS AND TROUBLE SHOOTING POSTED IN THE THREAD ABOVE.........

Gene,,,,may I make just one suggestion.....the spot to touch up on the rear floor area could easily be masked off, then dusted with a bit of white primer, then sprayed gently with your silver to blend it in....I have done fixes similar countless times over the years, and I think that little bit of extra time and effort may pay off in the end result...just a thought,,,,everything is looking BOSS.....the Ace....

........a difficult build, some GT sports car kits like this are tough to get right....yours is very nice, for sure........the Ace.......

very colorful and nicely built......the Ace....

an inventive way to save a great Volvo wagon kit.....terrific build......the Ace....

lovely, clean build....gotta love this piece........terrific work here...the Ace........

....forgot to ask....what AMT issue of this 49 ford was used here, Paul,......I am looking into buying one, but some may be a better choice, I assume.....the Ace....

.....you know, I keep hearing Moebius problems like this, not to mention other issues with their ford pickups.....and I usually sit back on these type of threads and rarely jump in, however as far as I am concerned, this Moebius stuff is over priced , poorly packed, and highly overrated, as far as I'm concerned. they will never see one cent of my dough, I can assure you...........the Ace........

.....the pins are white plastic stubs, located on the white parts tree beside your front axel set up.... the rear axel states its metal , however the front mounting pins make no mention of this....hope this helps out, Gary.........best,...the Ace........

.......A QUESTION WAS ASKED THIS MORNING IN OUR LAST POST REGARDING THE WHEEL / TIRE CHOICES.....AS THE GUIDELINES STATED , OUR MEMBERS IN THIS BUILD OFF ARE FREE TO CHOOSE ANY COMBO THEY CHOOSE TO. ALSO, MOUNTING OTHER WHEELS THEN PRESENTS THE DILEMA OF POSSIBLY JUST HOW THEN TO MOUNT THEM. FEEL FREE TO USE ANY BACKING PLATES OR AXEL BOSSES THAT SUIT YOU,,,BUT NO AFTERMARKET OR DONOR KIT DRILLED DISC BRAKE SETUPS OR SUCH......JUST WANTED TO CLARIFY FOR ALL.....THE ACE............--------GENTS, THOUGHT THIS MAY BE HELPFUL AS WELL. OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS MUCH INFO ON THE FORUM HAS BEEN DISCUSSED ABOUT SEVERAL AREAS OF THE 75-76 GREMLIN KITS IN GENERAL----HERE ARE SOME AREAS THAT MAY BE A CONCERN TO ALL...YOUR FRONT CLIP ON BOTH 75 AND 76 WILL SLIGHTLY WIDEN THE FENDERS APART , CAUSING EITHER THE STOCK OR SCOOPED HOODS TO FIT POORLY....ITS EASILY FIXED BY ADDING SOME STRIPS TO THE HOOD SIDES AND THEN SANDING THEM TO SHAPE....NEXT, THE CHASSIS TO INTERIOR TO BODY FIT IS POOR, WHERE SOME PLASTIC STRIP STOCK WILL NICELY SNUG THAT FIT FOR YOU.....IT HAS BEEN NOTED IN READING INFO EVEN OFF THIS FORUM THAT SOME BUILDERS HAVE HAD TROUBLE MOUNTING THE GLASS FROM INSIDE, SOME SAYING IT CAN THROW OFF YOUR INTERIOR FIT,,,,I HAVE TAPED ONE TOGETHER BACK A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO, AND IT SEEMS FINE, BUT ON FINAL ASSEMBLY THINGS CAN HAPPEN, AS WE ALL KNOW....IF YOU USE THE DRAG TUNNEL RAM 2X4 INTAKE MANIFOLD, NOTE THAT BOTH ENDS HAVE LARGE SINK HOLES, EASILY FIXED, BUT LEFT ALONE WILL BE QUITE A DISAPPOINTMENT....AND MY FINAL COMMENT IS REGARDING THE CARBS,,,YOU GET 3 HERE....ONE IS A 2 BARREL FOR STOCK ONLY, THE OTHER TWO ARE SMALL 4 BARRELS , USING ONE FOR SINGLE CARB 4 BARREL INTAKE, OR BOTH FOR THE TUNNEL RAM. IN THE PAST I HAVE SEEN THEM MIXED UP ON VARIOUS BUILDS, SO CHECK CAREFULLY THAT YOU ARE SELECTING THE RIGHT SET UP FOR YOUR ENGINE,,,NOTHING WORSE LATER THAN REALIZING THAT THE INCORRECT COMBO WAS GLUED IN PLACE, AS IT DOES HAPPEN,,,,,,LONG WINDED, HERE, BUT I HOPE THIS HELPS EVEN SOME OF YOU.....THANKS FOR READING THIS...THE ACE...
