Do you still have the dis-assembled Honda V-TEC resin engine? Thanks

Back in the day (BITD?), our family was looking at a '64 Cutlass convertible with the V8. I remember it well: gold with a parchment interior. No we didn't get it. Question: does the AMT '64 Cutlass kit have the little alum. V8 included?

Also, thanks for giving up so many Tricks and Secrets.

Thank you for posting photos of some really great builds.

I'm wondering: how does the 1/24 '64 GTO, compares to the 1/25 scale version? I have the 1/24 scale one. The hubcaps have seperate spinners. I may strip the chrome, and paint them aluminum.

I think I have parts of that sheet left.

I'm wondering if this method will work for A.scratch making exhaust systems, and B. scratch making a roll cage. It seems some table of data should exist for matching small alum. rod with the appropriate inside diameter of a styrene tube. Solder isn't the answer; it sags. Right now, I'm buying all the 'fine' alum. rod I can find. Thanks.

Very interesting. You must have some good stories. I had a '59 I think. It had reverse opening doors.

Thanks you.

About the Ferrari 330 P4 resin detail kit: I have one, and counted 65 peices in it.

Do you have any open wheel race cars left? Or Jags or Ford GTs?

I bought an aftermarket resin 2-piece scoop like that. May be you could find another one. I'm using mine. Sorry, I don't remember what company.

If I get the whole kit, I'll probably use all the ancillary pieces, like the dry sump oiling system, etc.

Thanks for the nice comments.

Thanks for all the nice comments. Somebody at the club said it reminds them of a pizza box!

Thanks you guys. I will probably buy the kit.

The wheels tires are very nice on this kit. But the front suspension is just for experts.

Can anyone recommend a kit?

Anybody have such an engine? What's a good kit to find such an engine? I am putting a NASCAR chassis, 1/24, under a '69 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1/25. (I wrote about this some time ago. I think I am going to need to buy a kit off of 'ebay'.) Did Ross Gibson ever make one of these? I think his engines were more like 1/23 scale, but I would try one. Thanks.

A 500cc air cooled engine: not a tiger (LOL)!!

The kit is a little fiddly, as they say. It has no seperate interterior. But the plastic seems hard, and everything seems to fit well.

I got the kit from Goodwill for $2.00. The whole suspension and rear end was missing. So naturally I am putting a Corvair-drive-train in it. But to view the engine, I decided to 'modify' the body, shortening it. I intend to make a hearse out of it. What do you think? Right now, I am struggling with installing the dash. Yes, the coffin is a little long, but that's what a razor-saw is for.

The first 2 pics are of: how the transmission was 'attached' to the frame-rails. It is very simple, and crude maybe. But it is very sturdy, surprisingly.

Isn't the '64 GTO 1/24 scale?

Thanks for your comments.
