TCM does a fine little tribute:

for your own

It'll need shallower wheels (borrowed from the '60 Ranchero?) and a set of those 3D-printed '63 Galaxie dog dishes to be perfect, but still a good idea.

Hey, I like Chad - just a little ribbing about the use of a certain word. The only change I wish they'd make is a brief still shot of the actual parts in the kit, or at least a still closeup of the box bottom - just long enough to pause on.

I think the designer poked himself in the eye when he saluted!

and La Brea

Looks like we're good - thanks for fixing it!

Only 35 "cools" this time, but it's a short month:

Interesting thought - the '60 Ranchero wouldn't require too much retooling to make a two-door wagon: modified body, an extension for the rear 2/3rds of the interior bucket, and rear windows. Still should have a stock six-banger. Hmm. Same deal for the '59 El Camino...? Wait a minute. When's the last time they issued the MPC '29 A Woody? Since they were investigating that tool anyway - reissue it with '60s chrome reverses, surfboards and new decals/box art. THAT sure sounds like a Round2 effort! What do you think?

That legendary, unforgettable car from the Batman TV series: '61-ish Humber Super Snipe - shows up in episode after episode for all three seasons

I've got my crew working on it...

Plus JohnG on the Round2 forum told me the chassis and interior molds were missing, so even if the body were fixed...

Maybe this'll help:

Seems like I stirred up a few hornets with that one - I 'shopped it with a shot of the original box and this image from the '66 Nova accessories brochure, since the artwork style was similar: (image via oldcarmanualproject.com) Took some tweaking to do, but I thought it came out decent except I forgot to reverse the wipers. Note I also tweaked the MSRP code

Another gluebomb orphan of the storm; cheeep eBay BIN: '63 Riviera. The skis caught some sun and warped, but those delicate A-pillars look OK. Looking forward to cleaning it up! Even better, I have photos of my friend's 1/1 scale gluebomb for detailing: 65k-mile low-option car; crank windows, no A/C or power seats. Sat in a garage for over 25 years; cats kept the mice away but peed on it a lot; thus the surface rust...

Won't lovers revolt now?

So many possibilities

Wait a minute. What have we here?

At least the commenters kept up the call for the '68 Coronet - repeatedly - and one guy was jonesing for a '60 Ford pickup reissue all the way to the end. So... shall we start wildly speculating about that station wagon?

First time it's worked all day - would our mods care to chime in? Running Chrome on XP (Yeah, I know, I'm a dinosaur). This forum has had more crashes today than one of John Connor's Russian dashcam videos...

Got the adapters today - they do fit the engraver but there's a slight wobble. If I use the adapter like a pin vise, I can start the hole enough to finish it with the engraver.

I did too, but it was a sedan:

Model Car Garage could have a field day with this one - grille, interior trim, scripts, etc. Hope it can happen!

If I can get in before the chat crashes the site, I'll ask about progress on the restoration of the '28 Model A sedan and see if there's any hope for a restored '64 Cutlass from the existing tool. Oh - and maybe engraving the "Galaxie" lettering on the trunk of the '63 Ford.
