I agree 100 percent, Ill add the 62 Catalina and 67 Eldorado (though they ruined it with it being FWD) haha

better safe than sorry when it comes to paint. Ive had/seen my share of horror in both the real and scale world. -
thanks guys. I was almost thinking about using skateboard grip tape as my road surface. It would be a simple diorama as I plan to keep it very 60s era looking/outlaw trackish. Time to start doing some research

Im using the K.S.Pittman kit as the main donor for my ferrari build so Ill be watching. Im torn between making it a high end drag car that would show well, and an all business drag car without the shiny stuff...Being a ferrari, Im leaning high ed show and go like many drag cars were back then. I just hate kit chrome haha -

My son is sick with some kind of bug so I havent really been able to do much. I was able to get the rear narrowed when he dozed off last night (the mrs is a 3 to 11 RN) i cut the ends off initially but it wasnt enough, so I cut the ladder bar indexing flats out as well and Im finally happy with the way the slicks poke out. next step is to get some shop time and get grinding on the body so I can fit the chassis and start those mods. -
Im in Naugatuck, rarely get to build though

GOOD STUFF! thank you! Ive always loved Kellisons, so much so that I have it on my "must own" list. Those late 50s sports cars like Scarabs always were cool in my book. Dean Moons Devin, The numerous Corvettes and early Tbirds built back then were also so cool -
Im trying to finalize the restoration of my Milestone Scotty Cannon 1:16 funny car chassis so I can display it sans body. i could stare at it for hours... BTW In doing so, Im searching for a lower driver side zoomie section. does anyone know where I can obtain one? I DO have an ad in the wanted section, but its received very little attention. thanks

exactly, I may narrow the rear a few inches, a bit less tire out back and a bit more tire up front. time will tell.
