Yes, they're very nice wheels I've used them myself and have some saved for future projects.

IIRC, those are from the old tool AMT '57 Chevy.

I think you may already have posted the answer Mike.

He said in his first post that those are the kits he's looking for, not the ones he wants to trade off.

This kit has one , , , IF you can find one.

Yea, just a few blocks north of Winsor Ontario.

Port Carling?

I would have thought they would at least have somewhere in Canada for the backdrop pic.?

Easy, just drill out the lens area back to the bezel and replace with clear lenses and new reflectors at the proper depth.

You mean this one? My local shop had it and sold it out months ago.

Very tasty ?

Definite improvement over the box stock kit. I really like what you did with the front and rear end treatments.

Monty, never apologize for liking what you like. For me, it depends on the car. Some cars or trucks look good with newer, larger wheels and some look good with traditional wheels. Just my opinion. Do you know of these sites? https://vintagewheelcatalogs.com/ https://akhwheels.com/wheel-categories/aluminum/

No problem. I seem to have developed a wheel fetish over the years. Yes, I'd say they're the same as the front wheels in the Vette kit. The back side of them may be completely different though. I've never had one of those SVO kits. Sorry, I don't know of anyone casting them at the moment.

I think Molotov would be great to put on a set of unplated Crager wheels Sorry, couldn't rezest myself. ?

There's a few of us who know who your referring to Kevin. I doubt it'll ever be brought up by him.

Not the Fords, Monty,

Ken, "Model King" is Dave Burket. One of the major kit retailers in the eastern US. He's partnered up with some of the big kit companies like Rc2 [sold out to Round2], Revell/Monogram and Mobius to do some special run kits in the past.

Finally got around to polishing out the paint last weekend.

I'm pretty sure that's just the older Caddy engine from the earlier kits in the DeVilles. The engines in the Eldorados are all Olds engines from the Toronados with "CADILLAC" script added to the valve covers.

That's where I got the idea from.

IIRC, no one makes one right now. Kitchen Table Resin did kinda have one at one time. I made up the valve covers for it and gave instructions on how to modify a 429 big block Ford engine to look close but he didn't do the mods to the Ford engine before casting it, just cast the Ford engine with the Caddy valve covers included.

I get ya. The lovely Mrs. Can-Con has it on Big Bang all the time for background noise. It's not that I don't like the show or don't find it funny but I've seen every episode at least 6 times. ?
