Well, a 1971 Riviera is still my #1 wish. As a 3-N-1 kit with Stock, Pro-touring and Lowrider options... Also a 1977-1990 Caprice, sedan and wagon. Now, a few Pontiacs. Easy to create duplicating a few existing toolings : 1970-73 Firebird Formula, 1976 Trans-Am and Formula, 1970 GTO, 1979 Trans-Am 400ci. Plus the hard way, no pain no gain : 1977 Can-Am, 1970 Grand-Prix, 1975 Grandville, 1973 GTO. What about Mopars ? 1966 Barracuda, 1971 Challenger, 1978 Magnum XE? 1990 Jeep Grand Wagoneer, 1984 Jeep XJ Cherokee, 1983 Plymouth Voyager (yes, seriously, a Voyager).

Tool Extension possibilities
Young iron replied to stavanzer's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
From the Torino, I'd say a Clint Eastwood 1972 Grand Torino. Well, since the film won't attract kids and teenagers, let's try the same copied car in F&F 4 ? -
With the MPC Reissues , I Wonder If ...
Young iron replied to 1972coronet's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Of course, I'd buy a couple of these ! First because my original is slightly bent. Second because this car gets more charm year after year. -
Modelhaus going, going Gone !!!!!!
Young iron replied to WoodyRDC's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
I order from time to time. And everytime I have to slown down, or order $800 of different stuff. My computer is full of building-lists featuring thair T-426 tires, Spyder, Honeycomb or Cragar rims. I didn't make a $1500 order, because I definitely believe someone will go on this business. And will need my money. -
Light Truck and Pickup Wheels

Looking for BudNik Wheels or close to them
Young iron replied to BDSchindler's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
Something close is in the Revell 1977 Monte-Carlo Lowrider kit. -
Will buy !!!

Renault Estafette, YEEEE-HAAAAAA ! The Estafette was the equivalent of Chevy Vans till 1980. These vans are as popular as Citroen HYs, but less famous abroad. The 2CVs are limited editions offered during the 70s and 80s. Iconic as well. But the real, amazing idea, is the Gendarmerie Renault 4L and Estafette pack. This has been the basic Gendarmerie pack for decades. Gendarmes replace policemen by the french countryside. Just like Sheriffs. It means that pack smells Camembert and Côte du Rhones. Last detail, but not least : associate a Gendarmerie 4L, a Gendarmerie Estafette, and an Olive green Mehari, you'll get the perfect Gendarme de St-Tropez background !

Will buy the Transit ! And add german plates plus a trailer.

These custom seats and wheels are fantastic !!!

Hi everyone A few years ago, I took a decision : less posts, more models. But sometimes, it's fun to go teasing That interior is day-fresh. Paint is a couple weeks old, but the dash has just been glued on the tub. Semi-gloss paint is les shiny in person. I don't like mate clearcoat on Muscle-cars black vinyl. I could make better quality, spending EVEN more time0 But I have way too many ideas to. And life is short... Chassis looks better in person too. I don't mind leaving the modeling marks on mufflers. Don't real one have welding marks ? Tub-to-chassis overspray is not that bad either. I will soon do the same on Revell's 1970 Cuda.

I'll buy a couple of these aged things, just for the decals !

Very nice original GTI !!!

Pics- Super Chicken '73 Trans Am is alive and well.
Young iron replied to Geno's topic in Model Cars
Gorgeous !!! Where did you get the A/C compressor and Honeycomb wheels ? The seats are definitely 1970. To build a 1971-and-after Deluxe interior, you need some seats from a chinese Die-Cast. Maybe when you build the Buccaneer Red one. Here are some pics of the 1974 SD I built years ago... -

The 1/12 Doyusha Kits - A Look Back
Young iron replied to Jordan White's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
I own both the 1971 T/A and 1971 Mustang. Body proportions are odd, mostly because of their roof. Too low. But overally they look great. Imagine how impressive is a 1/12 71 Stang !!! They're definitely 1970's japanese kits : details are rough, engine shapes are wrong, seats are squary, and Dunlop tires rules. But with passion and a few kitbashing you can build great models. For instance, I'll build the Mustang as the Diamonds are Forever Mach 1. Now, the question is : will they ever reissue all of them ? I want these Mercedes sooooo badly ! -
Please post pics of builds you painted with any hobby-type gold*
