Completed an awesome trade with Exotics_builder! Great trade and would trade with anytime! Thanks!

Thanks guys! Appreciate the comments!

I will try and post one for you. The engine is not that bad looking, has a lot of molded on detail and the distributor has plug wires molded on. I really didn't do much to the engine or under the hood.

This one I just finished up! It is the 1/22 scale Hubley Packard roadster. This was built for an upcoming club project, our club members all write down what they would like our annual club build to be and we throw them in a hat, this years winner was anything Hubley! I had a couple metal Hubley kits floating around and also a couple 1/24 scale plastic kits, I decided to do the metal kit since the club member who suggested that we do these builds only the metal kits! This was at times fun and other times extremely frustrating, but overall it looks ok! As always comments and criticism are always welcome. The pile of “junk” beside it is almost all of the flash that needed removed! I figure I could use it in a diorama or something!

Great looking model! Love the stance and color!

I have one of the AMT open road campers if you are still looking for one. I was just looking thru this thread and noticed you were looking for one, the one I just recently got has an issue with the body but is unbuilt and in painted. If you are still looking pm me and maybe we could work out a trade!

That is really sharp! I wonder what roof could be used, maybe the custom clear roof from the 64 T-Bird would be a decent starting place!

Completed a parts trade with Bucky, great stuff and quick shipping! Would trade with anytime!

Hi Dave, I would be interested in a set of decals for this. Where would I be able to purchase a set? Please let me know ! Thanks! Phil

Very cool!!!!!

Tom thanks for the photos and tips on the tires! I'm going to have to dig they my tire box and see if I have any of those!

Tom, yes I “tried” to cut treads in the tires, they are just straight grooves. A cross pattern would have been nicer! What tires did you use on your Valiant? They look really good!

Hi all, if this is in the wrong spot please feel free to move it! This is the AMT 69 Falcon modified stocker. Built pretty much box stock as a just completed never raced car! The only thing I did was to use an interior tub from the parts box since this kit doesn’t come with one. Overall I was happy with the way this turned out! I have the other stocker kits and look forward to building those! As always criticisms and comments welcome!

Looks fantastic! One of my favorite models and 1:1! Great tip on the decals! !

Mine arrived yesterday 11/20 in Pittsburgh!

Super clean build, very cool!

Thank you! I hope they continue putting out more stuff from this era, I like the older NASCAR kits, I'm going to try a Monte Carlo next!

Hi all, this is my third NASCAR build, this is the Salvinos Olds that I just finished yesterday. It’s not completely correct as I left the drivers side window net out to see the interior better, I also used the chrome wheels cause I thought they looked really good on it! I certainly am no expert in NASCAR kits and I have heard a lot of bad things about this kit. Overall I didn’t think it was that bad of a kit, some places it was engineered really well and others not so well. I enjoyed building this and was pretty happy with the overall results! The decals were really nice but using decal set is a must! The bumpers are the upgrades and these came in the Petty Monte Carlo and I was really surprised to see them in there, they required some trimming to fit but are much better than the originals. Comments and criticism always welcome!

David there were a lot of fit issues, mostly no positive location points. The glass that came in the kit did not fit at all and had vent windows molded in! The body on the inside had some thick mold issues in spots, they needed cleaned up, not a big deal but a pain. The tail lights have always been terrible in these kits, I heard the original issue had good tail lights but I have never seen one, I ended up filling mine in and adding strip plastic for the chrome. I guess it has to do with tooling from 69 , it’s easy to get spoiled with some of the new kits that go together really well.

Thanks for the comments guys! I hope Revell updates their 68 to a 69. It would definitely be a better kit!

This is my first completed model of 2019 and it fought me the whole way! Not really that pleased with how it turned out, this is the most recent issue of this from AMT and it is a tough kit. Comments and criticism are welcome.

Just finished a trade with chasracer, all good! Would trade with anytime!

Great looking model! Love the “burnout”!

Ken, nice work on this it is looking great! Can’t wait to see it finished!

Like you said these are pretty expensive when mint. I have seen a few and very few for sale on eBay around the $200 plus! I would have liked to have been able to replace the body and just keep it that way in the collection. It would be pretty neat to build it though!
