    NASCAR history right there, well done.

    X2 They are roomier than a Fad-T and is on my bucket list to build 1:1. A buddy let me drive his and I fell in love with it.
  3. El Caballo
    Wow, I want that kit.
  4. El Caballo
    Limited editions are for speculators and they won't be built which is too bad.
  5. El Caballo
    Splendid work, that kit has a lot of detail.
  6. El Caballo
    Well done malaise era cars. I remember them well.
  7. El Caballo
    I like those, but IMHO, the Australian XA/XB Falcons are nicer.

    I remember when I was 17 I went to a used car lot and was going to buy one of those (except blue with a blue top) but someone did a spray can rebuild on it, even sprayed the carburetor black. Naturally I passed on that.

    Does anyone make the red plastic sheets in red? If not, Testors makes an opaque red for painting on chrome that you could paint on the inside of a piece of clear sheet plastic, and use a little heat to bend it over a piece of a parts tree. If it doesn't quite match, just make another one until is does match. There is always an answer somewhere.

    1962 was a great year for styling out of GM.

    Some may wonder why the gray engine compartment, well, if there are any leaks they show up better on gray than black. I️ have seen many race cars set up like that. I️ did a bit of kit bashing as well, the seats are from the 1965 Pontiac GP model.

    Partly glued up.

    Interesting concept, hard to lo-lo in real life I bet.
  14. El Caballo
    Wow, I had a 1:1 210 coupe that didn't even look that good.
  15. El Caballo
    Well done.

    When these first came out in '83 I remember someone had parked one in front of my house, it was red with a buff colored interior. I recall thinking it was a wild step for GM to take, building a budget Ferrari. I seem to recall there were problems with panels warping in warmer climates and engine spontaneous combustion everywhere. Or at least those were the rumors around the campfire. An interesting idea, slain by the bean counters at GM.

    Great color choice, that era of GM cars had bodies that were long and sleek and made excellent palettes for all sorts of colors. Well done.

    That is really nice of you. The only thing I learned from a boss I had 20 years ago is that he is a complete douche, to this day I would not piss on him if he was on fire, his coffee cup was another matter.

    It's fun to kit bash a car into something unique, great job.
  20. El Caballo
    Wow, really tasteful car.
  21. El Caballo
    The red '69 is bitchin'.
  22. El Caballo
    I'm almost done with the same model, but mine is a bit different take, soon to come.
  23. El Caballo
    The man's muscle car.
