Amazing detail you are adding to very time I stop by. Were the defroster vents and speaker grille molded in the dash or did you add them? I am at the tail end of the console fabrication on my three 65s. The dash is next. I do not think I yet have the skillset to go as far as you have but i will give it a go. Since mine are coupes any boo boos will never be seen anyway. Keep up the great work. I am inspired to follow your example.

Nice replica. Great color combo with the redlines. I had the privilege of beating on a couple of SS 396 Chevelles in high school. (one a 69 and one a built up 70) both 4-speeds. Fast cars.

I have both a dial caliper and a digital one. They both work well. I tend to favor the digital one as it is easier to do the math when scaling down items. It is also very handy when I print decals to not overlay my artwork when making multiple print passes of individual artwork files on one page.

Spitting cans is why I have given up on them. Since I have so many, I just decant them now. Good luck on your build.

I like what you have done with it.

Good luck on your new build. I keep looking at some of old ones thinking I should take another swing at them. However, with the too many kits I have acquired I am seriously distracted.

Very impressive group of unique builds. The finish on your paint jobs is amazing. The streamliner is gorgeous and the wood grain on the BHE is way cool.

I used to subscribe to 5-7 car magazines. Due to many of them going out of business, I am down to two. Consequently, I have pulled open my archives and am rereading them nearly 40 years later. This is the one I have been perusing the last couple of days.

What they all said. Looks great!

Very nice indeed! do the long fuel tanks come with the kit?

That turned out fantastic! All the fab work is quite impressive. I am still building my skillset. I need more practice before I tackle something that complicated.

Did you get what you are looking for? I found these two in my Ford LN 8000 Coke box truck.

AMT's 65 Pontiac 2+2 is supposed to be a Catalina but they repurposed the 65 Bonneville which has a longer wheelbase. I have never run across a 67 Pontiac except GTO's and rare MPC Firebirds which had wing windows.

As much as that sounds like a noble idea, I doubt the moderators want to get into monitoring the morality police. I suspect a whole lotta complaining would ensue.

I have finally got a resin 77 Pontiac Can Am. Nothing else close to the other two.

Thanks for the heads up. I will leave it sealed up for now as I have dozens of projects ahead of it.

Any of these...

Stopped my Salem HL today because it is kit restock day. Pretty full shelves except for the empty 71 Cutlass shelf. Picked up the GMC Astro semi for less than $24 all in thanks to 40% off. Not bad for a semi truck kit.

Hmmm... I will have to look around to see if I have any.

Nice little "Trucklet", well done.

Nice work! You are not planning to use the paint-scratching hood clip are you?

Thanks Steve. I actually have some of the Testors "wood" paint. Since I actually have real wood, I am going to experiment with a bit of brown wash and clear coat to see if I can make my real wood LOOK like real wood.

Steve, Thanks. Hopefully I can get the coloring correct.

Steve, Thank you for sharing this example. I am hoping to get my interiors to look half as good as yours.

I have an iPhone 11. It works better than my wifes old 2.4 Megapixel camera. I transfer pics from it to my PC, crop and balance them and then post them. Really good resolution too.
