    One should read BONNEVILLE. The other is blank and is for the "Custom" version. I made decals to replicate the "PONTIAC" emblem that came stock. If you have one that actually reads "PONTIAC", you have an advantage over what I had.

    I have used the acme version for years. I vanity plate nearly all of my builds. I match the appropriate year and then often find a state with matching or complimentary colors for the paint scheme.

    Very nice 'bird. Great color. Didn't all Superbirds have vinyl tops?

    Following. I will be interested in all the kitbashing it takes to put this together. I have one of the Jimmy Flintstone sedan delivery bodies.

    Since you have the basics to start with, That is what I would try 1st. 2nd option make a 3D print of the entire deck lid.

    You are better off getting a roll of electrical solder. You can bend them any way you want and they will stay. One small roll is a lifetime supply. You can use stryrene for flanges and collectors.

    Amazing detail work. I love the kit bashing. Is it typical to have the firewall body color?
  10. Bills72sj
    Kudos. Nice build.
  11. Bills72sj
    I concur. Look for a dark grey primer. Or medium grey with a drop or so of black added.

    Make some curb stops from some wooden coffee stirrers painted yellow (or gray) One for each car.

    Way cool. Thanks for the info on the lighting. I have a semi project that will be lit with up to 60 LEDs. I am hoping eight "C" cells will do the trick.

    Steve, you deserve it. Your finishes and detail, along with the research you do, speak for themselves. Well earned.

    Love this build. I use those Goodyear Blue Streak tires under anything that can fit them.

    Between the age of 20 to 30. I had been pulled over THIRTEEN times. I was let go with a warning EVERY SINGLE TIME. After that time period though , not so much.

    It can be. Though the protruding headlights look a bit off. I made a vintage kit into a Heavy Chevy with a 454.
  23. Bills72sj
    Very SMOOTH build there Claude.
