  1. I used to draw front shots exactly like that when I was a kid.. man I miss drawing. I havent really sat down and drawn in probably 12 years
  2. After I first saw this build start, I tried to BMF a body panel and failed miserably. Kudos to you for a great job
  3. That looks great. Perfect stance too
  4. Here's mine. (click the title "My AMT '36 Ford 3 window chopped coupe hot rod" for some reason it quotes it instead of just leaving the link to click)
  5. Sorry, but Moebius does not make the new Starsky and Hutch Torino. You are thinking of Revell. But to answer your question I do have both and could take some photos when I get home.
  6. I love the Goodyear tires that have came in their Cobra/Corvettes/32 Deuce, and most recently the Starsky and Hutch Torino
  7. Street Freak! Love it. Not practical at all but awesome lol... like Rat Rods..
  8. I'm addicted to fox mustangs too... and Mustang II's too! and SN95's too! had an 89 GT that I wrecked before the fox and SN Oh and I have a few model cars too lol
  9. the console is molded into the interior tub. Ah yes, I remember that build now. I forgot it was yours. I'll have to go back and look for the WIP thread to see what you did with the chassis... And, I can't wait to see what you do with the WT body and monogram chassis!
  10. I could agree with that. The engine bay piece is vacant in the recent AMT release... and the chassis is different too. Which is depressing when trying to build a nice Mustang II. And it would be nice to have a nice original dash too for the 71-73 cars. I pick up every '71 re-release I can find when I can find it since it has just about all the parts.. except the dog dish wheels.
  11. If a modern tool Mustang II hatchback and a '71-'73 Mustang (with interchangeable noses) were released... I'd seriously go broke. Not even kidding. 2 of my favorite generations of Mustangs... besides anything foxbody.. I can't live without owning at least 2 fox chassis'd cars at one time. If Revell did a 71-73 car the way they did the 70 Torino.. man that would be sweet.
  12. Might try Steve Zimmerman as well... I think he has some similar wheels... but he has sooo many its hard to say!
  13. I currently have the old AMT Pontiac Rally II's from the old 69 firebird kit which I think was 1/25, and the goodyear polyglas GT's from the revell/monogram 71 cuda/70 chevelle as the tires I'm using.. but I think they're 1/24th if I'm not mistaken. I mix scales so much I sometimes don't pay attention. But everything is going on a 1/24 scale Revell/Monogram firebird... so its a hodge podge... just dont want the tires to be too "short" looking. I'll have to take a look at the tires you offer with whitewalls and see whats out there.
  14. Great looking build!
  15. I do enjoy rockabilly. Having only recently discovered it within the past couple years, I thoroughly enjoy it more than rock and metal that I normally like. I'm taking notes on the artists you all have listed so I can look them up because I seem to just hover around one or two artists until I burn myself out on them. I've been told I have a pretty good rockabilly singing voice by a couple people too. I just have trouble remembering lyrics and getting my timing down (which I'm sure comes better with practice), and a constant nagging sinus issue that makes me have more bad days than good... but when it's good, I enjoy singing along to sings while driving. I also got a standup bass to play round with too... so its slowly consuming me hahaha!! I'd like to eventually maybe record some covers of some classic songs... if I can just get my friend to want to play anything but heavy metal. LOL oh, and yes, girls who have the look I think are beautiful... imitating a time when people cared what they looked like. And yes, I agree as well... tattoos don't do anything for me. a couple is ok but covered... no thanks.
  16. What I like to call... the "Grand Theft Auto effect"... lol GTA is a game that is an "open world" and you can literally go anywhere on the map... except when it comes to the boundaries. If you're flying a plane in the game, and you fly to the boundary of the square map (which is kinda like a flat earth by the way ) then you're plane will lose altitude uncontrollably and you'll crash into the edge of the ocean and die. If you're manning a boat, the boat will magically sink, and you'll get eaten by a shark. I'm sure these are very similar things that flat earth believers will say. Or, we could take a page out of the new Mad Max game... if you reach the outskirts of the map of the game, you get a warning message on the screen that says "WARNING: YOU ARE ENTERING THE BIG NOTHING!" And if you keep going, a crazy storm will form and kill you, if you don't run out of gas first and die of starvation.
  17. Whoa, never seen this before. I love it! Although I think it should be a wild color with lots of heavy bass boat flake... because that about the crazy era it looks like it belongs it.... but man I love it either way! Sorry if I missed it but what chassis are you using?
  18. Bottom chrome bumper in the 5th pic looks like a 58 tbird
  19. Whoa, the hardtop looks way better than the convertible. Very nice looking. Now thats a muscle car
  20. Oh man, Rally II's with trim rings?? Just what I need for my Rockford Files build! What tires fit those properly? any whitewalls?
  21. That looks beautiful so far. Can't wait to see the finished product.
  22. The irony... I was just looking on youtube for stuff on the Munsters Koach and the Dragula... and I stumbled across a video from "the car room magazine" and the guy was talking about the die cast or plastic built up reissues of the two cars... and I kept thinking where have I seen that name before??? oh, yeah, right here.
  23. I hate the hood on the '14 Mustang. That will go. I love the Ford GT... and I really like the idea of the hidden headlight Camaro. I feel like I already have an AMT chevy truck like that, that I didnt finish.
  24. If they are, it will probably come out in a "special edition" box, and then later come out as a stock version or something close... Kinda like what they've been doing with their recent stuff. No complaints here.
  25. Oh man... seeing this... makes me think of the tow trucks from the beginning of Mad Max (1979)
