  1. Oddly enough.......I'd try to find a clean 2wd Cherokee to build up along those same lines as that Falcon too if I were to win the Lotto
  2. Looks familiar, just haven't had the chance to look for it yet............
  3. Honesty, I'd still be running around in my Jeep in that situation.........it might be quite a bit quicker than now and restified some, but it wouldn't be going away.
  4. Hmmmmmmm, that thing is going to scream Future Shock 2.0 when you're done!
  5. Wish I could.......but that would require two 4 eye Daytona turbo kits and maybe a 4 eye Mustang kit or two........and loys of fabbing that is beyond my skill level.
  6. That's how it is with my Dad's first two cars too I'd love for him to have them back (even more that the six pack Charger he and mom had), but those two Plymouths were in even worse shape than my Lebaron was in at they time they were all scrapped.
  7. I've come close, only time I have was once whem my sister mad me mad in HS and I destroyed a messed up AMT ZR1 with a maglight. That is the nice part about my R/C stuff or lifting weights, I can go out and thrash one of my R/C's or just go and lift to get rid of that aggrevation via trying to move weights around!
  8. Looks like it could be either Cornet, Charger 500, or Torino Taladega...maybe Johnny Lighting or old AFX perhaps?
  9. Wish that could happen with my Lebaron, but since I know it ws scrapped, that ain't happening.
  10. I'd expect the frames to be identical, IIRC the only difference in the 1/1's had been that aweful looking square nose on the commando. Sould even be able to put a true CJ or YJ nose on the 1/1 trucks too!
  11. Great looking builds there
  12. Not sure on the GM product off to the side, but that fendered one looking out of the door sure looks like the Lil' Coffin.
  13. Oh....I thought Mercedes as the one building the coupes.
  14. I've got one of the Revell 1/12 '57 Chevy's here that would probably be a starting point......either that, or that early 60's AMT '57 Chevy that had all the cool period speed and kustom parts left out of it on the most recent reissue.........still kinda hacked off about that one!
  15. I've got a good idea what the van would need (just unwilling to cut up my last remaining A-Team van for it), but I've got no clue where to start on something that unrelated to a stock model body. That thing could end up like Chezoom, the vin number would be the only part left untouched!
  16. Must be a Maybach seeing as it looks like an overgrown Mercedes with a hidious front clip.
  17. It does Ed, as well as the old style grill/front bumper, mirrors, side trim (that probably hadn't been used since the early 80's), the cut marks for the raised roof, original wheels and hub caps, ect.
  18. You know, I'm getting sick of seeing the Monster Energy Drink graphics every where, but it's perfect on your build!
  19. Honestly, I wouldn't mind if they left the newer parts from the A-Team van as well as the post '77 dash and wheel(s) and the grills that were never offered in styrene.
  20. Wow Virgil, haven't heard that name mentioned in a loooooong time.
  21. I've got a few of those around here it does have the louvered hood. as well as the bulged hood for the upper intercooler tube
  22. Kinda starting to remind me of McCall's Daytona from Hunter.
  23. I don't know Virgil, you'd have to start with a '57 Chevy and lots of extra styrene
