Good luck John.I have only had GREAT service from Revell.I had to try to get a missing part or two over the past 5 years and they have been very good at sending me what I needed.I fear that some people abuse it by trying to get parts all the time,and,that is why they say that.

John,how did you shrink the real car to fit in your background??? :wub: You did an unbelievable job on this one,especially the GREAT paint job!!!

Walter,are you talking about his engine or mouth!!! :lol: I love the guy and he is GREAT for the sport!!!

I built quite a few of 1/16 cars when I was young.Would love to try my hand at one now. ANYTHING the model companies come out with as far as drag cars are concerned is very needed and welcome.

I used to get almost every issue of Hot Rod,Car Craft,Popular Hot Rodding,Super Stock & Drag Illustrated ,and a few more.I still have some of them.This was back in the 60's and early 70's.Now I don't even look inside at the newstand.

Thanks for posting that GREAT video!!! I saw Big Daddy race a lot at the Miami-Hollywood Speedway.Some of my best memories are of him racing!!

I am going with real on this one.

Great looking cars and your lighting and photos are outstanding.were these done indoors or ourside? I love the B&W.Have you tried Sepia?

Hey Stef,that is a really nice idea.I would love to see what you come up with.I think it would be cool for a modeler to scan their completed box art and make it into a poster.I might look into doing that.( If I can ever finish a build!!!) :lol: Just kidding.

Look at it this way,you now have a valuable collectors item worth a ton of money!!! :lol:

I remember you could change skins.Then we had that problem that required all new software and everything had to be moved to here.I think Gregg said that that option was not going to happen here..I wish we could get it back as some of them were cool and did actually make it easier to read.

I vote for the Mercedes.Clean body and paint.Nice figure.Very simple and nice chassis!!

Hi Stef, what a great job in collecting all of the pics and info!!!! Put me down for a PDF!!!! You are a kind person to do this for us. Thanks a lot,George

Roger,thanks for the suggestion.I looked at the diecast and it is in 1/18 scale.Also,the cheapest one I could find was about $60.To much for a bumper.I will look into the 49 Ford. Thanks, George

Hi guys,I am back with this. Does anyone know if I can find the front bumper for this?? I have looked at all the known places I know. Thanks in advance!!! George http://i905.photobucket.com/albums/ac253/gbdolfans/Old%20drag%20pics/DSCN1187_935.jpg

I'll be there for a short time.Have to go in to work early.I just finished the RoadRunner Pro Street,and the 68 Charger Drag. I am starting on the 68 Dart(Red Light Bandit) and my Henry J.Still thinking about lowering it,as in my post.

I really want to use the kit engine and chassis.

Hi guys,I am starting a Henry J.I would like it to look something like this one. If you have built one of these,what is the easiest way to get this. Turn the axle upside down,on opposite side of springs? I don't really care about the correctness of suspention,just like the stance. thanks http://i905.photobucket.com/albums/ac253/gbdolfans/Old%20drag%20pics/DSCN1188_936.jpg

I love the old Pro Stocks,Super Stockers and the like.I will be following this to see how it turns out. Very nice job so far!!!!

Looks good so far!!! You might take some sandpaper to the tires to make them less shiny.

Looks really good!!!!

Hi,I am finishing up my ProStreet 68 RR.Does anyone know if there are decals for a RR? I need the birds,such as those on the doors. Thanks,George

GREAT pics!!! Those cookies look like they were good.It looks like you have a very nice club!!! I wish we had a club here in Asheville,NC or WNC. We had a nice one when Model Mania was around,but, he sold it and the buyer went back up north. :(

Thanks guys,I tried Bill's idea and it worked.

Brono,do you have a link to more of your pics? They are awesome!!!!
