MPC’S COLOR ME GONE 1966-1968 DODGE CHARGER FUNNY CARS
fordf-100 replied to M W Elky's topic in Drag Racing
Really cool builds!!! -
Awesome build! Looks great in orange!
-
Great idea! Didn’t even think of stopping/slowing it down, I’ll need to add one!

This is a build that started from a flea market purchase over the summer, a guy had 2 chrome Allison v12’s and the chrome Corsair motor for $5! Couldn’t pass it up as I’ve never built the Allison. I always had a couple floating around but never seemed interested in building one. So I started digging thru some stuff to see what I had that might look ok and I came up with the AMT double dragster kit, so I took out some parts threw in some parts box stuff and came up with this! I’m sure it’s not a very realistic dragster as I don’t know if it would hold together! I sure wouldn’t drive it! Let me know what you guys think! All comments welcome!

Thanks guys! I appreciate the comments!

This is the Moebius 1965 Comet of Arnie Beswick. I finished this a few weeks back and just got some pictures so I figured I post it to the forum. I really liked this kit! Most everything fit really well, the only minor issue was my back window had a small gap at the top, I think it might have been very slightly warped! The drivers decal on the drivers side door cracked after I cleared over them, it wasn’t fully settled down when I cleared it but I guess it was dry. Overall I really liked the finished look! As always all comments welcome and let me know what you think!

Looks really good, nice build!

1961 Joe weatherly interior question
fordf-100 replied to fordf-100's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Thanks John, I think I’m going to go with aluminum panels, looks more like a racer! -
I am starting the 1961 Pontiac of Joe Weatherly from Mobieus models and was wondering if the car had the stock door panels or were they aluminum? I looked around and couldn't seem to get any good interior shots on the internet, any body have any info on this? I was thinking of removing the door handles and window cranks and drilling hole where they would be but not sure if that would be correct. Thanks in advance! Phil

The woodwork looks amazing! Awesome build!
-
That’s right I forgot they are separate as I have a couple of those, interesting about the 70 cause I think I have a couple junkers that could donate a hood, I need to dig those out! Thanks!
-
Yeah I thought the same thing, I just didn’t want to buy one of those just to cut the hood out and then have another kit that needs a hood!🤣🤣🤣
-
I think I have one of these, totally forgot about these, I was thinking of trying to cut the monogram down but I don’t know if the beak would line up well since it’s 1/24.
-
Great idea, I’ll check with them!
-
Hi all, I’m looking for 2 hoods, an original 1/25 scale AMT 64 GTO hood and an original 1/25 scale MPC 68/69 GTO hood. I picked up really nice built ups of both these over the weekend and they are both missing hoods, any help would be appreciated and I have lots of parts to trade! Thanks!
-
That's awesome!
-
That looks really cool!
-
This is the newest release, I have never seen the original lines but these were pretty flexible but I still had a hard time with them.
-
This is the 1/24 scale Tom the Mongoose McEwen rear engine dragster. This is a pretty nice kit to build that I think really looks the part. Everything fit pretty well for the most part and went together really well! The part that gave me the most trouble were the molded fuel lines and plug wires, it would have been easier for me if they were a little more flexible! Although for the time this kit was originally brought out I imagine that was a pretty cool feature. Sorry for the poor quality pictures. All comments welcome!

Thanks Ace, I know what you mean, I have way too much stuff like this. I pick this stuff up with great plans for it and like so much stuff it just sits there!

I have some built ups, junkers, and parts cars for trades. These all have issues as can be seen in the pics. Parts are missing and/or broken. I can take some more pics if needed and answer any questions about these. there is a 62 Impala conv, not to horrible other than the windshield frame, 60 Sunliner with decent original bumpers, 60 Chrysler conv with emblems sanded, MPC Dodge Daytona NASCAR that has been turned into a street machine by cutting the hood and putting a blower on it otherwise a pretty decent car, 2 AMT 32 ford coupe body’s and misc. parts, 2 AMT 63/64 Lincoln’s that are rough, 1 has custom front and rear ends molded on some of the parts, the 1 interior and frame are from a promo I think, some misc parts in a bag that has a front bumper and rear but the taillights are broken on it, the 60 ElCamino is very rough, it’s chipped on the front fender but nothing is sanded, it looks like everything but the roof was painted with something that either etched the plastic or is still on it cause the surface is rough, and the 64 Gran Prix has some sanding and glue spots with the custom seats, the front bumper is nice, the busted promo body and interior go with it but that’s pretty much just junk. I would like to trade all as a lot. I would like to get 2 new kits that are out maybe one if it’s the right kit. I would be looking for. Olds streaker funny car, AMT 66 Shelby, the new kit, Moebius 71 Ford lifted F 250, Keelers custom 23 pickup. I would also be open to other trades let me know what you have! If no one wants the whole lot I will split it up, if this kind of stuff interests you over the winter I will be going thru more of this and getting rid of similar stuff, it’s hard enough to complete a new kit for me let alone try and restore or customize something like this! Thanks!

I have a 63 Buick Riv parts kit/ builder up for trade. This is missing parts and comes with what is pictured. What’s here is in decent shape, no glue blobs or sanding. The body is actually pretty clean with nothing sanded off, the bad part is the broken A pillar, I think it’s fixable using the more common 65 Riv for a donor. This is missing the front seats, front bumper/grille, taillights, steering wheel, engine and other misc parts. There is a new set of resin promo wheels that are in very nice shape, the glass also looks ok! looking for parts, parts kits or anything interesting! Some specific hard to find items would be a red 65 conv Vette promo interior, a teal Falcon promo hood, any AMT show rod like the Hot Dogger, usable parts or parts kits would be fine! I know these are loooongshot request but I have other stuff to trade!
