  1. AMT Body and interior sides, Modified Firefighter chassis. Doing something similar with the WT Mustang and a Monogram Boss 429
  2. I have an Annual AMT 71 original dash and front seats. No console though. Into casting?
  3. Would not even need a modern Mustang II, just an MPC release but I believe it was retooled to the Pro stock kits (FireFighter, Midnight Express) Using a modified MPC Chassis and retooled interior and AMT body would give us a nice Mustang II kit. As for the 71-73, Retool the grill/headlights to interchange, new 71-73 front bumper, and a chassis with the correct shock towers and firewall. The AMT body is fine. and the MPC interior tub works too (Front seats are horrible though)
  4. well that's a bummer
  5. Nice. I have a decently built one and some other kits going on the trading block soon. Cool kit, just not my cup of tea. Would need a Boss 429 or something
  6. Does the fire chief car have the formal roof body or the Sport Coupe roof? I do not recall... I was like 8 Box art shows Sport Coupe
  7. Looks really cool That the old monogram kit?
  8. Yup..... But I'd LOVE to see that one also. I built it as a kid and would love another.
  9. Depends on your gap location. The interior may be touching the windows. If they are not glued real well, remove them and sand out your areas of contact. I usually do this anyways Dry fitting is always your friend. I have run into issues like this many times
  10. Looks great. Love these old kits. Where you get the hood?
  11. X2 I had built something similar with a Monogram 70 Boss 429 kit long ago. Used the body and a scratch built chassis. First run was an epic fail. Used nails in the asphalt parking lot with a line between...... but they were too close, car hit the second nail at full speed. Pretty cool to see though.
  12. Very good looking build
  13. Wow..... I'd be trying to figure out how I want to build it still. Looks great.
  14. They are not bad, wheels and tires have a lot to be desired tho. I have a bunch of the Lindbergh reissues if interested. I believe I have all the 30's -early 50's, sealed
  15. Great score on these. Need glass for the 75 car? I have it
  16. Looks great. These build up nice and are very detailed
  17. I say build a few just for the heck of it, They are all very nice builds.
  18. Add some length to it and it would be a cool hearse! I like the direction it is headed.
  19. Yup, shorten the chassis about 1/8" and trim the rear. I have a Shelby mocked up.
  20. Now, that looks much better!!!!
  21. That is looking sharp. I have one being chopped also
  22. Looks cool but I personally dislike the flush front wheels. Makes them look bigger than the rear in my eye. Looks to be a nice kit.
  23. Wonder if the 70 Wildcat will be far behind?
  24. The Bonnie for sure
