  1. Did the lights last night. Got to make the bumper fit better in final assembly.
  2. I’m debating on slotting the bumper for exhaust tips. Have to see how gutsy I am. Got some more foil work done. Moving along slowly.
  3. Started some bare metal foil last night. Need to neaten some of it up a little.
  4. Hood don’t open anyway so curbsidevis fine by me. Just gonna sit on a shelf anyway.
  5. Resin copy of the stock 75 chassis. I will be modifying the exhaust system. I re drilled the axle holes and hacked a bunch out to clear the tires underneath. It’s no contest winner under there for sure.
  6. You and I will get along great!!
  7. The only problem being Revell messed up the windshield shape. They put a flattish area at the top center that is absolutely wrong. I own a 72 Montego GT. I’m here to say Johan got it right.
  8. I think their 1972 Torino was one of the finest bodies ever done. And I love 72 Montegos and Torinos. I look at how bad the Starsky and Hutch Torino is by comparison. Makes me wonder where have all the craftsmen gone? Computer aided drawing cannot replace a good old craftsman.
  9. Finally got decals on it. Change th wheels too!
  10. Johan had better proportions than just about anybody else
  11. Dude really nice!!!!
  12. I like this car. Nice job!
  13. Looking good Mark!
  14. Call Ronnie at SMH and ask him. Sometimes he takes them off until he gets more in stock.
  15. Actually may not be a bad idea. Power slide makes a awesome set of decals for the Mike Curb cars Earnhardt drove.
  16. Factory money backed Fords and Chrysler’s won almost everything. GM put virtually no money towards NASCAR in the sixties. Buick Oldsmobile and to an extent Pontiac engines were not good for long periods of high RPM usage. Their piling systems couldn’t take it.
  17. You have the formal root car almost done correct?
  18. I wonder where that Grand Am came from? Hows the Buick coming along?
  19. That Buick is on my hit list for sure. Gotta know a color though.
  20. Thanks man!
  21. There’s a couple floating around online here’s one from a different race.
  22. This is my most obscure NASCAR build yet. Amt Hurst Olds. Scratchbuilt frt cage structure. Roll cage from Johan Torino kit. Lots of homemade bits and pieces. PPP wheels and tires and custom decals.
  23. Theme this year was 70 years of NASCAR. I took my cars and display. Lots of cool models and people there.
  24. They were informed months ago about the bumper and springs. They chose to go on doing it wrong. The body is an easy fix. Not the Bumper.
