Nice. Things sure have changed since the early days of home PCs and the Internet! Used to be finding photos of cruisers was difficult, and only a handful of websites would have them. Now? EVERYONE has them SOMEWHERE online!

Regarding muscle car paint, my boyfriend always says that to be correct, a 1:1 restoration should be sprayed with single stage paint. Not color/clear. Since he is 10 years older than I am, he has seen FAR more original paint cars than I ever will! The look is indeed different than what ends up on most restored cars these days.

This is an old shot of my 401 almost ready for installation. Same block. Note the later engine color.

... of note... the oil filler tube & cap incorrect... should not be black... tube should be engine color, with a (usually) chrome cap.

Hi all - I'm a new member who found this site because after a VERY long model-building-dry spell, I did some online searching and found that all of a sudden, most of the familiar Ferrari kits weren't being listed on retail websites. Couldn't find an answer anywhere, and was starting to assume that it had something to do with the spinoff of Ferrari from Chrysler/Fiat recently. All I know about that is what I caught quickly on a radio program talking about stocks. It wasn't clear if Ferrari simply is now under it's own stock listing, or if the actual company is now independent (which I doubt).
Anyhoo, thanks for confirming my suspicions about the lack of kits!

Very nice! I wish that kit didn't cost so darn much...
