  1. I like the detail on that Olds, I may have to get one.
  2. Beautiful, I really like these in gold.
  3. I have this model on my rotation to do, and I am trying to decide whether to do it stock or how it would have looked in the high school parking lot back in 1980.
  4. That is a great transformation, well done, got to love that roofline.
  5. I loved seeing those out on the road back in the day.
  6. I love '69-'70 Fastbacks. This is a really nice drag car, well done.
  7. I built a Daytona about 30 years ago and it got lost in a flooded basement and tossed. I had put so much work into it, ah well, another one to put on the bucket list.
  8. Wow, great detail.
  9. Excellent work, I like the level of detail with the grille.
  10. I remember the regular Rebels when they were out on the street, most of which I saw with vinyl roofs and I always liked that look for them as it accentuates the C-pillar, which I think was masterfully done style-wise.
  11. Jurva, yes they did, up until the 1974 model year.
  12. With a 440?
  13. Excellent detail, my brother had a Duster. One thing; are the outside mirrors on the wrong side for each?
  14. I owned a 1969 Mercedes 280S sedan with the Bosch headlights when I lived in Venezuela many years ago. I loved that car, but it got stolen from a repair shop. >:-( I'd like to build one in 1:24/1:25 or get a die cast and repaint it if it isn't the right color combo; but did anyone ever produce one? It was like this one, but had the buff colored interior...
  15. Randy Bodkin did this and I find it amazing.
  16. The side view pic almost looks like an ad for Buick 1:1. Great job!
  17. Those wheels are awesome, did you bash those out of some other kit or buy them independently? As for the red lines, superb combination, I took the translucent tail light red paint that Testors makes and took a pair of white walls and just painted over them to get red lines for a '66 Galaxie I'm working on. Those look factory; are they? You did a great job on the paint, I doff my cap to you.
  18. Beautiful job.
  19. Great chassis detail.
  20. Beautiful, I hope you find Windsor Ford headers for it though. That isn't a y-block in there.
  21. I built that model in blue and the same year Trans Am in a bronze color back in the early 80's and the kits were Revell if I remember correctly and they came with real rubber tires that were BFGs I think. A much better model than the AMT offering.
  22. Such detail! A lot of work went into that and you should be proud. Those valve covers, air cleaner, and wheels actually look like they are made of aluminum. Well done.
  23. The story behind the Lotus 56 is really interesting, I had no idea a turbine car would be 4WD in either Indy or Formula 1. Cool car, but it must have been hot as hell driving it.
