GKS Charger here in the forum made them they are sweet!!

Really nice clean build!

Let me see if the artwork is still available

The Thunderbird on eBay is not nearly as nice as Paul’s. The windshield shape is completely and utterly wrong. The Johan Torino is the only kit that ever got the shape of the 72-79 Ford midsize windshield correct. This windshield is waaay too flat.

Good idea

Thanks Steve,that taillight panel was a fight for sure. There is no separation line between the taillights and the black trim part. So it all wants to run together.

Box stock save for an inside mirror. and carpet. Factory Iris Mist with a plum interior. Lowered slightly on the kits wider tires.

I totally agree with you. On the roll under. That and the windshield shape irritates me on the Revell Torino. The Johan is spot on.

Or 10!!!

Ok Tom I’m not sure if you are totally aware of the necessity of casting this???. Us NASCAR modelers have wanted this car for 44 years. And yours looks spot on so far. If you feel like doing a 72 Montego GT Fastback I will let you measure my personal car!!!?

Oh boy here we go number one don’t laugh 1 JOHAN 1972 Torino snap kit 2 Johan 1972 NASCAR Torino 3 Moebuis 56 Chrysler 300 4 AMT 66 Skylark 5 any of the Revell 68-70 Chargers 6 Monogram GSX if it was 1:25 it would have scored higher. 7 Revell 1968 Chevelle 8 Johan Superbird 9 MPC 71 Roadrunner 10 AMT 1970 Ford Ltd curbside

Man I can’t find a decent 65 Coupe de Ville to save my neck.

Oh right now you are a guaranteed win!!! I’m easy twelve deep.

I’m so far behind now it’s not funny. I haven’t even worked on the 73 for a month!

This is a spectacular build . Well done man!

Thank you I don’t mean to be harsh. But I really hate misinformation. Don’t even get me started on the Smokey Yunick 7/8 scale Chevelle myth!!!

No no no no no the tape was holding the sheet metal down . The car was flipped upside down and acid dipped too long the sheetmetal cracked and buckled up. Once again why would he have to stomp vinyl down??? Come on think about it. Start reading nascar history not the myths. The roof was painted With texture paint for two reasons. One like GKS Charger said was a distraction and the other was to hide the waves cause it was so thin and weak. Again if you think it’s vinyl you are 100% wrong. Sorry but that’s a fact.

This is the only Earnhardt car I care to build. And only because it’s a Buick.

FOR THE FIVE THOUSANDTH TIME THIS CAR ABSOLUTELY POSITIVELY DID NOT HAVE A VINYL TOP !!!! It was painted with texture paint. When the roof started peeling up it was the sheet metal. Hence Petty standing on the hood stomping the roof back into place. If it was vinyl you wouldn’t have to kick it would ya?????

I totally agree. Body proportions being off is by biggest pet peeve. And that top kits window line is too flat.

I’m gonna say this is real cool!

Don’t be afraid to Get your wallet out.

I did this hardtop a couple years back. Kinda stuck with the theme

I’m an automotive painter. I make most of my colors to taste. This one included.Sorry but there is no code or number I can give you.
