  1. I grabbed a couple on sale last week. I know it's not a great kit but I've built it a few times, (both GL and not), and always enjoy it as a quick, fun slumpbuster.
  2. thanks. Bummer
  3. I had the Maverick kit when I was a teen. I bought it because I wanted the 427 SOHC for another project, and I built the Maverick as a curbside. No idea what happened to it, or most of my other models from back then. Wish I had held onto it. Does the comet have the parts to build a SOHC, or is solely the Boss 429?
  4. great work! photos are well done also.
  5. not at all. I don't understand the harsh replies to your question. Clearly it's a well done model kit, and the manufacturer deserves praise for crafting such a fine kit for what is likely a small niche market. But the camry has never really moved the needle for me either.
  6. I have that McLaren Mustang kit. It's so sad compared to the real car. But I wanted it for the Capri body.
  7. nice work! brings back awful memories of when I ended up with my wife's old geo storm. It was the color of the rear bumper on your model.
  8. Are those door handles cast into the door?
  9. Looking great! '69 corvette is one of my favorite cars. Love that gold paint on it
  10. Looking good! Fathom green was one of my favorite colors. Heads up though, that isn't the fuel tank. It's the battery box and storage compartment. It would be gray fiberglass as well. The fuel tank is actually above the spare tire carrier.
  11. Great looking corvette! I like the color combo and like others have said, the Torq-thrusts are a good fit. the dash is weird, that's the '68 dash treatment with no map pocket. I've built an earlier issue of the '69 kit (the orange one) and it had the map pocket molded in.
  12. Mine was a 307 V8 with an electronic quadrajunk. First car my mom ever picked out herself. I had it for about six months before it was stolen.
  13. Cool! I'll pick one of these up too. I bought the Hurst already but this kit is a better starting point for a replica of my first car- an '84 brougham, light beige with navy interior and vinyl top, still need to figure out wire wheels and the split bench seat though
  14. I'm in for a set of the flares as soon as they're available
  15. Slick!
  16. same here. Link opened with no problems. Good looking little ford!
  17. Sweet! Where'd you find lace that tiny? I've been trying to find some to model my buddy's '59 Biscayne but all I've found is too big to be convincing in 1/25
  18. Nice job! Always liked the g-nose on those early Zs
  19. Sweet. Love the stance
  20. exactly. Those items and a vinyl top and I can build a replica of my first car.
  21. Sharp! Those wheels look great, too!
  22. same here. I had one once, built it curbside because I used the SOHC in a Revell F-100. Always liked the stance of that little maverick with the big scoop and the big and little slotted mags. Did all the issues have the tires with Goodyear on one aid and Firestone on the other?
  23. Awesome! I've always loved those trucks. Looking forward to seeing how it turns out
