  1. I have seen many of the interior SWC Swindler II Willys with the shite/blue seats, headliner, padded roll bar etc. However, I have not seen any pics of the stripped down, lightened Swindler A interior. Might anyone have and please post.
  2. Thoughts on the color/paint of the Flying Dutchman Dart?
  3. Might anyone know if an after market Revell Road Agent CLEAR Bubble top can be purchased (not the pink bubble top as found in the reissued kit)?
  4. Might anyone know what kit has these headers?
  5. Accidentally, got CA remover on a clear styrene windshield. It did stain it. Suggestions on how to remove. Thank you
  6. Has anyone tried the Revell Chrome Spray Paint? If so, how is it? I understand it is a bit pricey ($35).
  7. Might anyone know of an aftermarket dealer who sells 1:25 scale rear window louvers for a 1974 Chevy Vega?
  8. Might anyone know of a model kit or an after market supplier that has 1:25 scale Inglewood white wall pie crust slicks?
  9. Tried using a permanent black Sharpie on a outside windshield gasket; it does not seem like the ink from the Sharpie will ever dry and will always smear if touched. Will it eventually dry? Thoughts please.
  10. Thanks for the kind words. The build from the Moebius Arnie Beswick Comet kit. The engine was taken from the Dyno Don Mercury Cyclone F/C kit with the Blower and blower hat from Calnaga Resin. The chassis, fire wall and dash were modified so the engine could be moved back to the interior. The engine cover (dog house) was made from Evergreen Styrene. The front suspension was taken from the AMT 55 Chevy Nomad kit. Front tires are from Speed City Resin. Front Wheels are from a Polar Lights F/C kit. Rear Slicks are from the Revell Miss Deal F/C kit. Rear Wheels are from Speed City Resin. Paint is Tamiya Clear Red over Testors Pure Gold. Decals are from PoleKat Decals. Will be more than happy to answer any other questions you may have about the build.
  11. Might anyone know what kind of magneto is found in the Polar Lights Funny Car kits?
  12. Have any of you tried Decal Fix by Acrylics Vaallejo to hide the edges on decal film once decals have been applied? If so, how do you like?
  13. if I may add my 2 cents to the conversation. I've noticed the Molotow finish eventually turns silver after time. It initially looks great eventually loosing it's luster.
  14. I think you are correct "Snake" , I plan on using Tamiya Clear/Kandy Red over Gold. Not sure what gold yet however. Thanks for your input.
  15. Building the iconic Jack Chrisman 1965 comet F/C. The Chrisman car was painted Metalflake brand Candy Red over Gold base. I believe they referred to the red as "Brick Red" and the base was standard Gold ground coat. Trying to find a Kandy Red that duplicates this color. Thoughts?
  16. Looking for a the paint color Kandy Brick Red. Anyone know where I might acquire? Thank you.
  17. Just Finished. Speed City Resin Body, Whoopie Kat Decals. Thanks for looking.
  18. Might anyone know of a model kit that has a parachute similar to this?
  19. "The Hill-Zartman Willys was always called the Filthy Forty, The name was mostly the result of what happened at the 1962 Nationals when Charlie Hill deliberately put the car into the middle of a muddy field to keep onlookers away, and never bothered to wash the car prior to eliminations " - Gasser Wars. This is my rendition of this iconic car.
  20. Might anyone know if aftermarket 1:25 Moon Spinner Gas Caps are available?
