  1. Looking good..... Looking forward to progress. Any color thoughts?
  2. I prefer Purple Power. Less mess That is an old kit dating back to 1964. A little paint work underneath and add some hoses using solid core wire (it keeps its shape when bent) and you will have a good looking kit
  3. The 74's did not have crank rear windows and yes, the 72 seats are different unless it is a standard bench.
  4. Watching this build for sure. Heard some bad hings about these kits, so I am glad to see this. Love the "Only feed the left bank" intake manifold! LOL
  5. is that the Krylon Shimmer Purple? Looks great. I like a lot of flake, especially for customs My vote is white interior, great contrast.
  6. Great looking build. Not getting into those wheels and tires tho. But that is just me. It would be great to see this again, but it became the Monaco police car
  7. Very cool. Glad it was posted here or I had never seen it
  8. This has Projekt clear over flat black. No rubbing done to it
  9. That and the PlastiKote projekt clear. Goes on like glass. Both enamel base, so covering Duplicolor is easy
  10. I have had real good luck with Krylon Hobby Clear.
  11. Those build up nice.
  12. Cool dio..... I have an observation for the future. The valve covers on the center engine are on the wrong sides. The more square end goes to the front. On a 1:1 it is for cam gear clearance. I did it too, so don't feel bad. I doubt I will ever correct mine.
  13. Yea, they like to mess with us. I know when I am unsure, I look up reference photos and trial fit..... A LOT!
  14. Another beautiful '57 from you....
  15. Very nice, LOVE the color scheme. Going with the stripes? Wish I has seen the build earlier.... Not a knock, but you made a boo boo..... if you do another, this is the correct distributor location, in the block next to the water neck (although, it looks okay all built) Kinda cool I found a 1:1 the the same color
  16. I sure want one of these. Wonder if any USA Oldies toolings survived, or the Comet, AMX or Rambler offered by Testors?
  17. Well.......... bye bye money...........
  18. Looks great. Beautiful paint
  19. Very nice build up.
  20. 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.
  21. I love it, cannot wait to get one. C pillar looks a lil thin, optical, color, not sure, but I want it!!!!!!
  22. 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.
  23. The Revell Orange crate always fought me.... but trying again
  24. 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.
