Like it? I LOVE IT!!! If it was a difficult build, it sure doesn't show in the final pictures. Color choice is perfect, I know I've seen original cars in this exact combination. Great job!

Taking nothing away from your restoration, I think what you have there is a Snap Fast Plus edition - not a promo. I looked online and couldn't find 94 Mustang promos in that color. With that interior combo, it looks like one of these. Still a nice save, Snake!

1/25 AMT 1964 Olds Cutlass F85 Convertible
Oldcarfan27 replied to Casey's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
If they can do this, can a modified reissue of the 66 Skylark be far off? I'm in for a couple of these, I want stuff like this to succeed so we can see more!! -

You've got "Too much time on YOUR hands!" ?

I started singing the song from reading the title - then I read your post and found out that IS what you're referring to. Love Chicago!

I have variations of this dream from time to time: I'm walking around somewhere. A mall, an antique store, swap meet, garage sale - whatever. All of a sudden I come across a shelf (a box, a room) full of model kits, most are vintage, sometimes they're built. I look for prices and they are always cheap so I start to look through them trying to gather the ones I want. At first, I recognize ones I've been looking for or have never seen before, but are very cool! I keep gathering, but the more I take, the more parts are missing from them and I can't find the parts that I know were just on it seconds before. Then I start finding stuff I don't want, and it overtakes the desirable stuff and soon I can't find the ones I like anymore - or someone else is grabbing the ones I want! I'm losing them and anxiety starts kicking in. When I wake up I remember what could have been, and get sad thinking of all the great kits I missed out on! I have an awesome collection in my dreams! Someday I'll post pictures of them here, whenever I can get them home from the "Twilight Zone"

The whole car is done well, but those wheels are absolutely perfect for it! They're from a Japanese kit? Who'da thunk it.

I recently got one of these in a trade with a very generous member of this forum. (He knows who he is). I've set it aside as I want to do this car justice. Since seeing yours, I know the direction I want to go in. Great inspiration!

With a Boss 429 for power, that thing will get passengers to the airport in record time!! Car is weathered nice, but too nice, not enough dents!

AMT 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air 2-door Sedan - India Ivory & Harvest Gold
Oldcarfan27 replied to RandyB.'s topic in Model Cars
I'm not a fan of the box art - makes the car look like a pro-street. But your build makes me want to get one now. Looks.... -
Thanks much, Brian. Great stuff from you too. Let me know if there's anything else you need.

He didn't build them, he just got to hang around them while they did their magic. But I do agree with you about destroying all their hard work.

The initial crash, aftermath and cleanup in the movie were real trains and buses, but the train chasing Harrison Ford was a model. BTW, the trains and buses are still located exactly where they left them - in North Carolina!

Hello Mister Snake, Do you have any plans with those 3 Novas? I've been looking for parts for a couple months. Posted in "parts wanted", but got no response. LMK.

My brother in law worked with a crew that built and performed the train wreck scene in the movie "The Fugitive". You did know it was a model didn't you? I've watched the movie many times and still think it's real!
