  1. Maybe the 67 Impala would be close. Not real familiar with GM's but that would be my first attempt
  2. Great way to return
  3. Cool, but scary to actually drive it!
  4. They accept Paypal now also.
  5. I like the chrome better, but looks good either way
  6. No, that's the Dukes car with a funky nose on it.
  7. Mid engine with Taurus SHO power. That would be cool
  8. You do not have it yet? I know when I find a deal, I jump on it ASAP..... I left a rubber check deposit on a car to hold it for 2 days once, then showed up with cash. Glad he did not cash it. Still have the car also. 72 Montego GT Q code. 69,000 miles
  9. For all the bad I heard about this kit, it looks pretty darn good.
  10. Looks cool. Not a fan of the wheels either but the build is sharp looking.
  11. That van have the stock wheel covers included? I need a set and may have to buy it for those
  12. Very cool. Love old stock cars
  13. Wow, some really nice work guys. Here are a few of mine
  14. The basics should be there, and the monster stuff was added. Look at the Firestones Ford, it became Bigfoot and the Destroyer but came back as the Firestone version. Same with the 72 Blazer. It was the Thunderbolt. I'd love to see the Dodge also.
  15. Got a cheap camera and wanted to try it out. Need to play with settings a bit.
  16. Wow... that was quick and nice!
  17. Two... count them two 40 Ford Sedans on two different workbenches at the same time. It is going to be a good month.

    I been painting all summer long. The bird looks great. I like the slight weather (read that as realistic looking) interior.
  19. Looks ready to rock as it is. Maybe a lil black wash on the wheels.
  20. 24" to center of the front center line of the crankshaft. Bill, since you are running without the bumper/valance, be sure to cut off the fender at the scribbed line. That is actually part of the valance. If you are ambitious, sand the bottom of the header a bit, it is to thick. The 1:1 57's, the lower part of the headlight bucket was about a 1/2" lower than the header and the upper grill dipped down in that area. If sanded below the headlight at an angle so the grill right there tucks up behind the headlight area, it will look fine. Thinning this down 1/16" makes a HUGE difference in the front end. Also, if you go this route, be sure to trim the fender to match the bottom of the grill. Looking forward to seeing this done. Go for the BMF, start with a new blade, slow and easy. Yup, I been doing awhile and it still intimidates me! don't burnish down real good til after trimming. Makes getting the excess off tough.
  21. If you just want the breathers, they should be easy to make out of styrene.
