  1. That is a good one to mock a Cleveland. The Nascar engines of that period actually uses a Windsor type block. A little work on that AMT intake, be sure the water pump and timing cover is blue to look to be part of the block, and it would pass. That's how I did these
  2. Looks great. Old kit that still builds well, or at least yours did.
  3. Looking cool! Love the Y-Block engine choice! Using one in a coupe build of mine. Great job correctly installing the distributor at an angle.
  4. The Revell Starsky and Hutch engine block closely resembles a Cleveland, but then they added Windsor heads. Are those interior pieces available to the rest of us? They look great!
  5. Not bad kits, but the front end is kinda off in the headlight/grill area. The simpler AMT 66 is closer to correct. The best 60's era Mustang is the AMT 67 Fastback IMO
  6. Off to Ollies tomorrow
  7. I like it..... One day I'll build mine.
  8. Excellent
  9. I love these kits. The AMT is a better version IMO. Wish they would update the chassis assemblies. Cannot wait to see these all done
  10. Your attention to detail without 'adding' detail is amazing! I love seeing your work......
  11. Yes, when I was young, almost everything was closed on Sunday. I applaud them (and others) for their choice
  12. Looks awesome
  13. The quality of your builds is outstanding and the fact you seem to just whip out theses builds kills me! I have a set of the Victoria wheel covers if you want them.
  14. I Love this kit and have quite a few of them. This is looking good. I would also lower the front. If I am not mistaken, you just flip the spindles over to lower the front. To me, that Revell parts pack engine always looked a bit under-scale. Unlike the Revell kit, the body on this is pretty darn good. For a bit more accuracy, you could sand the front of the rear quarter to taper it down as shown in the pic.
  15. Of course in Red.... is there any other color for a rag top? It can be Richie's car from Happy Days
  16. Stunning build..... The convertible next? Many of the newer Lindberg kits are of equal caliber.
  17. Actually, I am hoping for the corrected Olds X3!!!! Post of the day!
  18. I will wait for the corrected bumpers before getting a kit, although I want one bad.
  19. Favorite? Toss-up between the AMT 57 Fairlane, AMT 49 Ford and AMT 40 Ford.
  20. I love the reissues..... I can never have enough 40 fords and getting a chance at kits not seen in years is wonderful. That Mack is on my list for sure. I am sure they will be getting some new stuff out, but til then, I am satisfied with their offerings.
  21. What is inside is not much better IMO.... Been doing a lot of correcting and scratch building on one
  22. Very cool and a great job with it. I love these interesting, out of the norm builds.
  23. I love the fact they are going into the 70's Nascar era...... If they are good, i will buy them for sure Hope to see some non-GM offerings though.
