1967 Dodge Dart Conversion Set
rickcaps55 replied to MrObsessive's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
Yep that was a AFX/Scale resin kit I have one in fact I just set it out to be chromed I got it from them 7 years ago be for they went under with there web site. -
Hi I have both the 65 and the 64 Cutlass kit's from R&R. I used the AMT 65 GTO as the doner for both the guts are the same GM used that platform for a lot of the mid 60's mid size cars and the glass all fits to. I got the better looking chrome from modelhause and they also have the glass if you can't get a doner. I also have one of the bandit kits it is a great looking cast he also listed the AMT GTO as the doner. good luck. Rick.

Modelhaus 1965 Galaxie Tail light question
rickcaps55 replied to DaveM's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
The Modelhause Bezel and lens will fit any and all AMT 65 ford Galaxies the box maybe deferent but the model is the same from the first I do the same I like the 2 piece set up I have no idea why they did that. They also did to the 65 rev and a couple others but modelhause has the fix. -

MCW 1966 Chevy Biscayne kit.
rickcaps55 replied to cobraman's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
I I have the same kit that I am working on I got the chrome parts from Modelhaus he has the AMT parts and that's what the MCW kit is made from. and he moldes his taillights in and I wanted the clear red. You will have to cut the taillight bezel down because the one from modelhaus id the Impala and that goes around the side but it can be done. The rest of the kit I did use the REV 65 Chevy because when I got that one the 66 was not out yet. Good luck Rick. -
Hi all of the Modelhaus replacement parts for the AMT kits are the first run. Over the years for some reason AMT has taken some kits and filled in the tail lights I have replaced a lot of them this 69 you did is one the 65 Riviera is one and the 65 Ford Galaxie the 67 farlane has a two piece also and there is a couple of more it has come to the point I get the kit check out the bumper and lights and place an order with modelhause it does make it look so much better.

Man O man you have got to sent this to a resin guy so we have a chance to get in on this I would love to have that in a kit from.

Dom's Charger Fast Five Build Update 5-01-13 Finished
rickcaps55 replied to TFchronos's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Hi looking good the sidelights came out great. I'm not shure if you know but modelhause has all replacement parts for the 70 Charger there the old amt/mpc parts but they are 1/25 so they do fit it may save you time on trying to make them. -
A pair of Fairlanes under a long term restoration updated 3/31/14
rickcaps55 replied to VW93's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Hi I have restored both of them a couple of years ago. You can get every thing you need to bring them back to Org using parts from modelhause them have all the chrome and all the insides and the glass it's all AMT repops. They are to of the best Fairlane's it's worth getting the right parts. I have seen complete kits out there going for any were from $125.00 to as much as $350.00. I have one of each in an untouched kit that I got lucky on abut 12 years ago at a side walk sale in a small town when I was on a vacation I payed $10.00 each all I do is look at them I still can't bring my self to building them. -
