  1. Went to a model show and picked up a built 64 Fairlane thunderbolt and a AMT 33 Ford 2 door sedan along with a complete model A chassis and some T chassis parts plus a A roadster body.
  2. I picked up a builder that has decals all over it and what takes them off.
  3. I am going to see if I can find the six from the 60 p/u kit,I really do not want to take the six from the 60 I built and might end up just using the 283 that came with it but find a two 4 bbl intake since I do have a correct bat wing air cleaner and carbs.
  4. It is a opened kit and hubcaps and tires are missing.
  5. The Revell black widow kit I got looks to not have came with the small hub caps so is there another 57 kit that would have them.
  6. I really want to put a six in it so I will have to look into that air cleaner.
  7. Yes its the cheap 150 and would love to put a six in it but not sure if I want to rob the 235 out of the 60 p/u I forgot I built but will most likely will since those 60 p/u kits are going for more then I want to pay.
  8. What kit came with a good 409 engine.
  9. I just remembered I built the custom version shortbed and forgot it came with a six so its coming out of the truck.
  10. I will have to look for that kit.it could get the 283 from the 57. I am also thinking about a 409 if I can not come up with a six.
  11. I think that Caddy engine is from the Revel 49 merc kit,its missing the valve covers and intake.
  12. I picked up this Revel 57 to put in a 50s Caddy engine but since its not complete thinking about a six cylinder and if I can not find a correct looking six I might put in a 409.
  13. Picked up the Revel 57 Chevy 150 2 door sedan and I would love to install a six cylinder,I do have a couple AMT 216s but do not have the correct valve cover so was there a 55 to 62 235 ever made in a kit.
  14. They look more like a Lincoln then a Ford.
  15. I would like to build one again,the only one I built was in the early 70s.
  16. I have one that I might have to try this on.
  17. Its going in the tank and will give that a try first.
  18. I have another set of windows and the ones that are in there are junk.
  19. I bought boxes of extra parts a couple years ago and there were parts of a 70 to 72 Camaro and a big block Ford engine molded in green.
  20. I am glad to see I am not the only one who is a bad weather builder,when its nice I have to be outside.
  21. Took a little trip to get parts and one can see fall coming in the leaves of the trees now.,with what I have been seeing I think we might have a early winter this year.
  22. Having everything else new for this kit is making the restoration much easier.
  23. Working on a Lindberg 64 Dodge and someone really glued the windows in so what can I use to loosen the glue.
  24. If the new bodies are not that great I will restore the 70s version body that I have,was thinking about finding a new body but if the molds are not that great now I will fix what I have. I have two older bodies and will build the best one.
