  1. was rather pricey thru Model King.... that's all.
  2. I want to see the Craftsman 64 Comet. We know the tool exists
  3. You are correct Ron, nothing is "perfect" I am the same way, I look forward to test shots and reviews. Sad part is, like the Mustang you commented on, I have not bought one..... yet. I may eventually, but that roof line does ruin the character of the car. As a 1:1, I always thought a lower roof would look better, and it really does look good lower, but is not correct. A low slung road racer build would work well though.
  4. There should never be an issue with pointing out flaws, and the kit manufacturers should be able to read and make a better product from it. Then comes all the personal attacks, or the ones sayin "here we go again" That kills the thread. My recent thread about posts being deleted was deleted because that started. Sad that the ones that want a better kit have to consider just being quiet so they are not called a rivet counter.
  5. Saw the post and did not save it to my bookmarks. Can anyone help? I did a search and came up with a lot of posts with nothing to do with it.
  6. Great looking Fairlane
  7. This is one of those lacking detail under the hood and chassis but looks great kits. I have a few, will get a few more.
  8. Sweet 41. I may need this
  9. Awesome
  10. Love the green!!!!!
  11. Cool.... Dated kit but builds to a nice looking kit. Do a lot of trial fitting. The interior tub does not sit in the frame flat. The issue can be sanded out pretty easily. I trimmed off the flat piece on the top of the floor (above the rear end) and sanded the interior corners to sit the tub into the floor pan more. I believe I sanded the top side of the trans cross member also. Made a big difference This will help keep the body from sitting crooked and the floor hanging down to low below the rocker.
  12. Looking great!
  13. This is a great looking kit. The roof bow does not look like something that could not be easily dealt with. I will need a few of these.
  14. That is sharp
  15. The kit and options are good, but the body has a whole lot to be desired. I did not even consider fixing it. The 2 kits I had, the bodies went right in the parts bin..... This was one kit I was severely disappointed in
  16. I'd be happy to deliver empty barrels in that! Very nice
  17. Pics of contents?
  18. I think Kevin asked about the stacks, but I wondered also.... I thought a bug got on your interior... til it walked across my screen. This is looking very very cool.
  19. I received a chopped up 57 Ford body
  20. They interchange. I bought a pro street 70 Super Bee for the chassis and used an MPC Dukes Charger chassis under the 70 for a shelf model.
  21. I believe the cage is leftover from the 75 (possibly earlier one tho) version that could be made as a stock car. If it is there, I am happy. Very versatile cage that is easily modified to other kits. I like the separate flares and spoiler, with some work on the side vents and hood, could be a plain Firebird too. Direct reissue of a kit not made for quite some time? I'll take it As for the tires, I like those and the wider version (found in the Goon car) for builds that I want a matching but wider rear tire. I'll get one or two.... maybe I need a 79 roundy round build.....
  22. Is it possible Codi is photo shopping a real car onto his workbench? Wow!
  23. I have one of these that helps by taking tires and playing on the floor with them til I need 'em HAHAHA
