  1. Okay, that is the one I was thinking of. Was released as a "basic builder" also. Thanks, I changed my wanted post. The current 76 Stepside isn't mis-labelled as a 1/24 is it?
  2. The Basic Builder, not the current release, correct?
  3. I looked and see the difference. Thanks I am not against some surgery on the fenders.
  4. This may be better suited elsewhere, if so, sorry. I am wanting to backdate the Deserter to a 78. #1, is it possible? (I am a FOMOCO guy and GM are out of my knowledge zone) #2, Anybody make a replacement grill from the MPC 78 Chevy stepside in resin? I know Revell offers the Big Game 78 Chevy, but it is 1/24 and I am doing a group build with other 1/25 cars and trucks. Thanks
  5. Mine also has the formal roof with smaller rear glass. Here is a shot of one with the standard roof.
  6. 1987 Mercury Grand Marquis to be exact.
  7. WOW! Rare 1973 Mustang kit! Vintage! Circa 2019 PRE PANDEMIC! LOOK! $85.99 Sorry just had to... ?
  8. Ohhh.... I was thinking "Circa" or "LOOK!" LMAO
  9. Wow, I sold my last GL for $15...... 6 months ago. Should have went to fleabay with it
  10. Personally, things like this I believe is crazy https://www.ebay.com/itm/VINTAGE-MPC-MINUTE-MAN-1971-72-PRO-STOCK-MUSTANG/164757010400?hash=item265c4877e0:g:4z8AAOSwK61gTNLr
  11. The body was built around an '09 Mustang floor and chassis
  12. My daily. Comfy, dependable, not bad on fuel for what it is.
  13. #1 on my list would be the '67 Galaxie hardtop!!!
  14. You are right... my bad... The 69 Cougar lights would look way better on the Foose car
  15. I commented before about the rocker panel lengthening.. Now the body is too fat like the current Challenger. The wheels had to have the positive offset, the Foose car sits on a 2010 Mustang chassis. Looks like they mover the front wheel openings forward also. Note: if you bump something, the fenders and hood will hit before the bumper
  16. Revell has been measuring a 71 Mustang for a new tool.... With the Foose car I already see a repackage after the original kit comes out.
  17. No, the 72's would be better. 71's are too small. Personally, 1969 Monterey lights would have worked well, and hardly anyone would know where they came from.
  18. Love the grill, not a fan of the driving lights. It needs a stock front spoiler. Well, I am in line with most. Wheels are garbage, the tail lights have to go, Sits too high and I hate the extended rocker panel. I really hate the way he stretched and widened the top of the rear quarters. Makes it to square. Kind of makes you think about the Revell 71 Mustang.. A second repackage already planned.
  19. Oh I am sure this will be an interesting thread. #1 Revell/Monogram 69 GTO.... I lost track of how many purple baths this car had. #2 I lost track of how many bodies I have painted and painted the hood later for it not to match although I used the same paint.
  20. Looks really good. Too bad Revell did not make the headlight and tail light bezels for it
  21. Looks really cool and I like it so far. Stance is perfect and the suspension looks great. Not sure if you want to do any body mods, but one of the bad areas on this kit is the windshield. The opening is too high and the A pillars are shaped too square. Yea, yea, call it counting rivets, but lil things can make or break a build.
  22. Looks like you nailed it. Great job
  23. Like Bisc' says, I am not a fan of white cars but this looks good in white. I like the pieced together look and wear on the steering wheel. Very realistic. Did you do a boo boo like me and not paint the hood at the same time as the body or is it part of the pieced together look? Either way, it is character.
