In 67 nascar had 8 brands Buick Chevy Dodge Ford Mercury Oldsmobile Plymouth Pontiac

The top of the windshield opening is what I was talking about. Compare the Revell body to a Johan body. The top of the opening is wrong on the Revell. The Johan body is 100% correct. I own one of these bodystyle cars but mines a Mercury Montego GT . The windshield does not look like Revells does

Thanks guys

What he said!!

Paul did you get rid of the flat spot on the top of the windshield opening. It should be round all the way from roof post to roof post like the Johan windshield is. I never understood why Revell screwed that up. Do you plan on casting these?

Nice Rob looks like you fixed the kits issues. They look nice when done.

I’ve missed this topic before. I have to say I’m a nut for body proportions. Being a boattail Riv is one of my all time favorite cars I never bought one of these on account of the body shape. But you are nailing it. Real nice job I’ll take one for sure.Pay attention to the header panel above the grille it is just plain wrong. If you could fix that would really make this nice.

If you are talking about the little fairings in the sides they are aluminum. I cut one of those cheap aluminum roasting pan lids up. Costs 2 bucks and lasts forever.

This is a AMT 66 442 kit. I lowered it and built the under hood bars from scratch. Has PPP wheels and tires. Intake from a 69 Hurst Olds. Carb from an AMT NASCAR kit. Radiator from an old Johan Torino. Homemade radiator hoses. Deacals are from Dave Van! Still need to add rear #s and a couple odds and ends.

That’s actually funny. You know I got to thinking tonight. I’ve built eight cars using your fine decals.

Nothing in particular just plain bad

They copy everyone’s decals. But the funny thing is . ......they truly suck at it. Their decals are BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH.

Nothing worth noting. Hopefully by this weekend.

Really Mark you have a group picture?

Way nice job Mark.

I really like this one. Nice job

Mark I’m not real wild about the fuel cell I made for this one. Hangs down too far. But I’m not about to try an rip it off of there.

Ok so JDs Buick took priority to this . So now that the Buick is done this can get worked on again.

The spirit that JD and the other independents brought to NASCAR is what is lacking today.

I had them made for me. Speedway decals

Obscure cars are my favorites. More coming too!

Or close enough to done. Gotta paint the fuel cap and add a couple small things yet.

JDs interior done

I think Mike is going to. Figures as these aren’t quite correct. That’s always my luck.
