[I ALWAYS THOUGHT THE TIRE WERE TO BIG ON THE AMT MODIFIED STOCKERS! So I did my own rendition of the 1966 Buick Stocker!]

Charles,

Your model looks cool, especially the modified Nascar chassis.

The Bobby Hillin decals are a good choice.👍

Looking forward for the finished one.

 

I did this model from the very same amt kit:

I used the kit chassis with some modifications.

Here is the whole thread:

I consider the wheels to big as well, but look at the supercool photo of the modified posted by Johnny Canuck.

It carries the big (kit) wheels actually😉

Very clean and cool Monte Carlo !!

I like the white vinyl roof and the undercar weathering.

Well done 👍👍

Love it, especially the "thriftmaster six"!  Where can I get one? Not familiar with the kits mentioned.

Don, i used this AMT kit for this one, comes with the Thrift Master inline six.

I changed one thing on the engine: i installed an oilfillercap to the valvecover instead of the oilfiller tube on the side of the engine.

Good choice on the tires. Not the everyday go-to brand seen at most racetracks back in the day, but my favorite driver growing up - Norm Lelliott at Toronto's old Pinecrest Speedway - used M&H tires to carry him to a track championship in 1970. Although this photo is from the year before, you can see the Racemaster branding on the tires.

Very cool pic and interesting facts, thank you !

[1969 Bobby Isaac's Dodge Charger Daytona]

Very nice Dodge !!

I have two on my to-do-list as well.

Would be happy, if my detailwork looks as good as yours👍

[Falcon Modified Stocker - 24 hour (and more) build]

Very cool !!

These giant wheels 🙂

 

[´66 Buick Skylark modified stocker]

I used the AMT kit, added some spoilers, plus wheels and decals from the partsbox.

Thanks for looking!

[I need some gas tank ideas]

Jeff,

i really love your tractor and i´m looking forward for the finished thing 🙂

I made the fueltank for my Carsini wineries truck from PVC tube.

Diameter is 16 millimeters or 0,629921 inches.

I got it at a homeimprovement store, its a protective tube for power cables.

Cutted it in length i needed and glued plastic sheet on both sides.

Added a filler tube and retaining straps from styrene.

Some sanding and painting - ready.

Great group of builds. Fuchs wheels on the V Dub?

Yes indeed, i thought a car with Porsche engine needs Porsche wheels 😉

 

[1970 Dodge Super Bee/Nascar chassis]

Very cool Racer, great Job!

[Monster Trucks]

They are all cool, especially the crew cab Ford.

[1965 Chevy El Camino custom with camper]

Very clean build, great !

[2 Finished For 2023-- Kinda, Sorta!]

Great job on both!

I like weathered models. 🙂

 

[Carsini Wineries stake truck]

I wanted to do this one for a long time, a fictional Carsini winery truck from the ´Columbo´ crime series.

The Chevy cab and engine are from the amt kit and these great looking wheels are from scenes unlimited. I stole the chassis from the Revell Opel Blitz kit.

Everything else is from the partsbox or scratchbuilt from Evergreen styrene and real wood.
