    I’m a big fan of the 67 and 68 Cadillac Coupe Deville. I’m also a purist for original design. That being said, I really like this custom!? I have a couple extra 67s, I think I’ll follow along and try it myself!? I see it in lime green and real low!

    Wheels on ??

    In my case, I’m going for the “look” My 55 Nomad is 1/25 while the Corvette parts are Monogram 1/24

    Great color choices!

    I would like to throw my hat in the ring with this 1970 Dodge Coronet.
  6. Superbird McMonte
    A friend of mine is working on one too!

    Great kit! Looking forward to this build!

    This is the original car that inspired me for this project. I had issues uploading photos earlier, the only ones that would load were the black Pro Street.

    New project on the bench. I have a body with the front and rear bumpers molded in for this one. I’ll take pictures when I dig it out. I started it over 15 years ago. Maybe Snake will let me throw it in the next “Bring Out Your Dead” assuming there’s one starting in January. It is sitting a little high in the rear here. I notched the top of the tub’s and move them up here. I think I will drop the front a little too. Here is the inspiration!

    Nice work! There’s a lot of “tubbing” going on lately. I have a 1970 Monte on the bench, and it’s tubed!

    That’s a killer look! I hate you!??? Now I want to make one too!?

    The Miura is my favorite Lamborghini. I’ll watch this with great interest! ?

    I am definitely going to have to give this method a try! And coming from you Bill, I know it’s gonna work!

    Have you seen Bill Geary’s work in progress? He’s doing the Shelby Green Hornet. It might give you some good ideas too. He posts it here from time to time.

    Very interesting subject and build. I don’t know much about Dr. Norm, being a Baldwin Motion fan for most of my life, I’m interested to learn though!
  18. Superbird McMonte
    Thanks Guys! I’m looking forward to see where this goes too!?

    I’ve always admired the workmanship that goes into low riders. Especially the multi layered paint jobs. There’s a guy that shows his models at our local LIARS show and the NNL East. His work is fantastic and always inspires me. After seeing his work a couple weeks ago I’ve decided to dip my toe into the water and give it a try. I’ll be converting the 70 Monte Carlo into a 1971. I don’t know if I’m going to do a multi color paint job or maybe a two-tone. But I worked tonight on the ride height. I wanted it Looooooooow!

    He still out there, I’ve ordered a couple things for him “recently”. But delivery does take some “time.” This is a cool subject! I’m not far off from my wanting to build the 73 Trans Am formula hybrid from Corvette Summer to go with my Corvette Summer build.

    Looks to be a great build to follow! I’ll be watching this!??
  22. Superbird McMonte
    I’m liking the custom paint!
  23. Superbird McMonte
    Beautiful colors! I’m liking this a lot!?

    The Dart is a die cast. They are usually pretty expensive but I got this one in affordable price with eBay because it was missing the front trim on the hood and something was broken on the chassis. I think one of the mounting holes. I fabricated the trim myself. I think there’s a thread on here somewhere. Yes, the silver with red interior is a very striking color combination!

    It’s like an assembly line most of the time!?
