  1. I sure want one of these. Wonder if any USA Oldies toolings survived, or the Comet, AMX or Rambler offered by Testors?
  2. Well.......... bye bye money...........
  3. Looks great. Beautiful paint
  4. Very nice build up.
  5. For the AMT kits, how about a 58? Basics are there with the '57 51 Merc off the existing 49 67 Mustang Coupe? I'd be happy with a new chassis and interior on many or the metal axled kits.
  6. I love it, cannot wait to get one. C pillar looks a lil thin, optical, color, not sure, but I want it!!!!!!
  7. The Cyclones would be great, and so would the Montego GT, just not off that horrid Torino kit. 51 Merc would be great, but with an entirely new body tool. The '49 is just too flat on the sides.
  8. The Revell Orange crate always fought me.... but trying again
  9. Maybe I'll get one for the gasser parts, but will be a parts kit only. Have 2 sedans and a wagon "in progress" and correcting the bodies has burnt me out.
  10. Trim piece that fell off my Thunderbird.
  11. Someone stepped up and got my part....
  12. Just cut a round hole in the hood of the 69, the rear louvers almost fit the 69. a little sanding on the edge of the louvers and a little on the opening, they will fit
  13. Cats and kits.... who'd have thunk it
  14. I am keeping it simple.... 1972 and 73 Montego GT
  15. Mine bring "gifts" all the time.... Funniest was she brought a mouse inside (usually they are by the door) Sat it at my feet and it took off! Was mayhem!!!! They got it tho
  16. I had nose prints in the paint..... once a paw mark. I now have a cupboard that keeps my things safe while they dry. Must be a cat thing... for all cats!
  17. That is great you took her in Carl....
  18. Good to hear that I am not the only one with this issue. All of them sure have personalities. Carl, Penelope is a sweetheart, she was dumped off by some a**hole (I live in the country) prolly cuz she was pregnant. I took her in. She lost all her kittens and tore the house apart looking for them. After, the kids let her out and bam, pregnant again. Had a litter of one, and she is still with us. She likes to take the sprues, so when I empty one, I let her have it.
  19. Part of the reason is my kit contents. At least she is not stealing tires... her normal way to bother me.
  20. Use this and a 70 donor kit. Get the corrected resin front end tho.
  21. Make the wheels centers metallic gray or black. Do not remove the drip moldings, use black bmf on the drip molding and front and rear window trim, just the molding at the top of the door and around the quarter glass. That is the one I was speaking of before. Keep going, it is looking good.
  22. Reason I ask, I found a tough to find car at the Pull -a-Part in Nashville and need a small part from it. Of course, they do not pull parts and I am hoping maybe someone can for me. Will gladly pay for your time.
  23. Looking good. Seats look great in there. Nice wheel choice, Size fits the car well. I think I would remove the pans and mold in the bumpers to keep the shape of the bumper and be able to tuck them in more like the rendering. That and the front looks a little to boxy with that bumper box pushed out at the bottom. You may want to consider removing the chrome trim at the top of the door and around the quarter glass because Revell made it way to thick and it makes the side window opening look too small. These are merely suggestions/opinions
