  1. Really nice, love WIP! Gerald
  2. Very nice, what body did you use? Gerald
  3. The 1/24th scale tires seem to fill the wheel wells of the longer wheel base cars better. But I don't know if it's accurate? But I see the same a lot of the time. Gerald
  4. Is the body an old MPC version? How did the PL chassis fit? Gerald
  5. I will build a test engine like the one I'm using! Thanks for your help, this a great point the front beam may need trimmed a little. Thanks, Gerald
  6. Got a little chassis work done. I'm using the AMT 1969 Plymouth GTX kit for the chassis. Removed the gas tank and filled the gas tank opening and chassis holes. Added a piece of Aluminum tube as the base for the shifter and rebuilt the front frame and motor mounts. Started opening up the firewall for the battery and oil tank. Please give me any opinion that will correct anything else you see wrong. Gerald
  7. Looks like a lot work ahead, can't wait to see how it turnout! Gerald
  8. That's cool!!! Gerald
  9. Really nice! Gerald
  10. You are most likely correct. That makes a lot of sense. From what I can tell Bobby used a Tan colored seat in his Chargers? Does anyone have any good photo's, drawings or anything else of the dry sump oil system ran in the '69 Mopar racers. I think this car ran that system. Need a pic of the oil pan. Thanks, Gerald
  11. Looks great! Love the detail work. Keep it going! Gerald
  12. Thanks guy's. I'm working on a Nichel's chassis for this car. I'll post some pic's soon, to get some opinions. The more eyes the better!! Thanks again. Gerald
  13. I was leaning toward flat black. What Krylon of Testors paint colors would be a good body color match? Thanks, Gerald
  14. Thanks for sharing. Gerald
  15. Anyone have any ideas on the interior, frame and roll cage colors!
  16. Very nice! Gerald

    Driveshafts

    Seems I recall a driveshaft going through Earnhardt's windshield! I think at Pocono, I think it hit him in the face but he finished the race! Gerald
  18. Really nice, the body work is great!! Gerald
  19. Looks great! Seems like you build one a week!! Love the late 60's and '70's cars. Gerald
  20. This good stuff guy's! Are you guy's using .080 plastic rod for the roll bars that you replace? Going to get a couple of T-Bird kits and see what's what! Gerald
  21. I have a question about this kit, is the chassis and engine bay correct for this car? My intent is to use this kit to build Earnhardt's 1976 Army car and detail it's engine and engine bay. Any and all help with pic's, drawings, opinions or any other help! Thanks for your help! Gerald
  22. Love this build! What decals and paint did you use? Gerald
  23. Looks really great! Love the paint and decal work! Gerald
  24. Think it's time to put the Polar Lights kit away and wait. I have the Yesterday's decal sheet and want to use them on the best possible donor kit! Thanks' Gerald
  25. I think you should be very happy with it!!! Looks great!! Gerald
