  2. Nice work!!
  3. Nice job!!
  4. You did a nice job. I love that kit it looks more like the real cat than the AMT. I have about 6-8 that I plan to build 65 A/FX cars with. I scaled it off a real car and it is right on the money.
  5. Great job!!
  6. Great job!! How did you do the vents?
  7. Looks great!!
  8. Great job!!!

  10. Speed City Resin has a nice 67. He does drag racing kits but he does a few stock and the 67 Buick GS 400 is one that he does.
  11. Great job!!
  12. Dean Sox [Ronnie's Son] is a customer of mine and he has just finished building a 68 Barracuda that looks just like his dads. He put on the hood scoop the Boss is back. I will find out what color he used he told me when he was having it built it was going to the same color. The car has a hemi in it that was in one of the old Sox & martin cars.
  13. Great job!! all of them look great you have a good start I think Ford Motor C. had 25 of them built.
  14. Great job!!!
  15. Great job!!
  16. Great job!! where did you get the decals?
  17. Scott I like to build from original photos then you can see what different cars had on them. I started going to the drag strip in 1965 and saw all big names from that day run. agree with DJ about the pie-crust slicks. I remember seeing both in 1965 but buy 1966 most were wrinkle-walls. A good place to look at photos is George Klass Remembers for 50's - 60's photos.
  18. Great job!!
  19. I did Gary Thanks! I sent a reply but must not have submitted it. Thanks again for your help. I saw the car run in 1965 but I was 14 and it is hard to remember the details.
  20. Thanks Gary I am going to do the 64 because that is what the decals are for. I would like to do the 65 version with the Cragars on it But Cady didn't do the decals right. He did the Gay Pontiac in red & gold and it should have been dark blue and light blue. Thanks again.
  21. Does anyone know anything about Arnie Beswick's 64 GTO. From the pictures I have been able to find it looks like he may have had at least 2 different ones. All the color pictures I have are black interior and I found one on George Klass that looks like red interior. I also would like to know if he had a 4 speed in it. I know he ran it in 64 and 65 the 65 car had Cragars on it. Thanks for any help I know their is a restored car but it looks to be a little of a couple different versions. I am trying to get it finished to take to Atlanta in November.

    Great job!!!
  23. Well Rick I have a year on you I am 67 and have been building since 1961. I don't mean to nitpick but my dad was a tool & die maker and a perfectionist he always said it didn't cost anymore to do the job right. THE 65 Chevelle is a great kit but they made the top flat and it just ruins the look of it. I just think model companies are trying to put too much detail. I loved the 60's kits and still do. I know none of the kits are perfect and I am a pretty good scratch builder but I shouldn't have to pay 30.00 for a kit and have to rebuild it. all in all I think most of the new tool kits are great and look forward to the next one.
  24. I hope they didn't screw it up like they did the 65 Chevelle and the 62 Impala. It looks good in the picture but I have my fingers crossed.
