  1. What is that color? Looks sharp
  2. No windshield either

    48 Lincoln

    Looks really good. Difficult kit to get looking good, but you did it.
  4. Looks fantastic!!!
  5. Love that kit from 74.. Would like to get my hands on one
  6. The Mustang II was not modified for the Python kit. The panels were add ons.
  7. Yes, that is correct, but the body shape remains unchanged. The blank interior is the downfall of the AMT kit
  8. I like where this is headed. Your review on the other Merc kit is correct, and the other is slab sided also. Undergoing a similar milder project (although it is stalled) using parts from both kits. To save me some time I used the Revell 1/4 glass, Mercs are a favorite so I will be watching to see where this goes.
  9. The subtle changes look good on it. The only thing I think it needs (or needed) was to lay the rear window down a bit to give it that "swoopy" look it got from the windshield being laid back. But that is just me, it still looks cool.. I was happy to see it wasn't that other Merc kit.... LOL
  10. IMO, the AMT body is much better than the MPC. Here is a pic of the front of the original AMT 71. The main body is the same as the AMT 73 (Tope car)
  11. By looking at the bottom of the box, it is the MPC kit for sure. I wish they had just used the AMT kit and used the MPC interior. Luckily I recently bought a nice re-builder of an original AMT 71 Mach I
  12. You set the bar for this kit high for sure. Great job
  13. Rob Mattis, that is nice
  14. Yea, not a "real" hot rod, but is my hot rod. Been wanting a car like this since I was 8...... Took 37 years to find one
  15. I stand corrected.... I thought it was earlier
  16. There are some selling and auction pages on Facebook I use to buy and sell I like Model Kits and Bits Auction page
  17. I own my dream Hot Rod (car) 1971 Ford Custom 500, 351CJ 4 speed.
  18. I am working on a Johan Pinto Funny car and have been baffled as to what to do with the huge quick change rear end. Then came across this photo. Well, it looks as if the kit rear end is correct. Anybody have more photos or information?
  19. Yes, I remember seeing the Plymouth Fury police car release in the 90's. Sadly I did not get one
  20. I'd like to see this one again, or was the latest a version of it?
  21. Well, to my surprize. Discount Drug mart is starting to stock plastic kits again. For awhile now they have been loaded with die cast kits, but have recently brought back plastic kits. The selection consists of Revell kits. I emailed to customer comments on the Drug Mart website letting them know my appreciation. I mentioned an interest in them stocking some Round2 kits. I am hoping others may appreciate them stocking kits and letting them know. Prices range from $13.99 to $19.99 I grabbed these two today.
  22. Looks great.... Nice details on the chassis
  23. I'd say it's looking good. As an FYI, the hood is not straight across, there is a peak that follows the front header.
  24. Found a Revell 48 Ford in Columbus. Grabbed it along with a Gremlin, Diamond Reo, Kenworth cab over, International Transtar, and a flatbead trailer. Was a good day.
