  1. Yes it is a 90's amt t bird chassis stretched about 3/16". The top of the rollbar was rebuilt to fit the Torino roofline better.I also removed some bars that wouldn't have been there in 1973.Tires and wheels from PPP.Johan body with trim removed,front wheel wells opened up and flared out at the top.
  2. Thanks for the compliments.This car is one of my favorites.Elmo raced for years as an independent,people like him were Nascar.
  3. Finally got the door numbers done.Next for the roof.
  4. Some more pictures.Charlie's car is done except tire decals.
  5. I'll take some more pics.as I get more done to it.
  6. It is the Saturday night special or something like that. I did a lot of work on the wheel wells to shape them better.I used an amt 90's NASCAR cutlass chassis under IT. PPP wheels and Power slide decals.
  7. I got stuck on my Elmo Langley decals. So I've been working on this instead.
  8. There is a font called Impact that I similar but the inside of the holes is rounded not squared like the car has.
  9. Sweet looking love the color combo.
  10. Kind of stuck on how to do the decals. I can't find a font that matches correctly.
  11. If the car is cleared before any dwcals,as in one light coat Put the big decals on then a thin coat of clear. Then put the rest of the decals on. Trick is to go lightly on clear over decals.Always clear over the base before any decal application.Hardened clears do not move when applying more clear causing the wrinkling problems.
  12. What kind of paint is on it now?
  13. Here is a update on the grille.Also a pic of how amt modified the trans pan to clear their crossmember mistake.
  14. I kind of stalled out on this at the interior.Also the chassis is irritating me.Seems the amt 69 442 chassis has the trans cross member to far forward.This limits you to using the 442 trans or the interior won't sit down right. I'll get pics later.
  15. If I knew how to cast I would do it.
  16. A couple pics of progress on the grille
  17. I'll post pics tonight of frt bumper mods.
  18. Excellent.Love oddball cars.
  19. The yellow car is a model of my 68 GS 400. I wish I would have fixed the front end shape on that one too.
  20. Started with a Perry'sresin 1968 GS. Removed all 68 trim.Then added the correct 69 trim. While I am at it Iam correcting the front shape,rear window shape and wheelwell shapes.
