  1. Agree...the more kits the better
  2. I started building models in 1968, built my first 1:1 in 1975, a 64 Olds Cutlass with a Buick wildcat engine, after that went to Fords and never looked back. First Ford was a 57 f100 with 390/ toploader combo, then I built a 67 Mustang coupe with a sideoiler/toploader, then worked in a Mustang restoration shop restoring Mustangs And Shelbys. next build was a 64 Galaxie R code clone, a 69 Torino coupe, and a bunch more ....currently have a 63 F100 Uni, Later
  3. Gerald, really enjoy looking at ALL the great truck builds you do. You are the man...Can't wait for the next neat build you post. Robert
  4. Some cool stuff on this page, I finished up a couple of quick builds this week and decided to start something a bit more involved with this 67 Mustang, so far its got the suspension form the Stingray III, concept car..
  5. Those tires are real short, would look good on a small car, like a Corvair..
  6. Both colors would look good, I like the blue, but if I chose to go green, I'd do a met. green.
  7. Man, I.m glad we quit watching TV..
  8. Not a fan of the wing, sorry! Maybe raise it up? Just thinking out loud,
  9. Chassis that are painted black can be a pain to strip, 300
  10. Got a good start on my Plymouth funny car tribuite to the Revellion Dodge F/C, got the Tony Nancy dragster frame straightened and a hemi from the Hippie Hemi with asst. parts assembled. The Johan body I recently got was in great shape, just missing everything else, so funny car was it fate. Thanks for looking..
  11. I have not counted lately, but in the ballpark of 150 with the oldest being built in 1986. None finished yet for 2021.
  12. My bad, for some reason I thought you were airbrushing. So, and its a big so, if warming a spray can makes it spray better, what would cooling the can do?? Just a thought!!
  13. I think instead of changing, I would try some practice with air pressure and distance before changing. Just before you think you've sprayed enough stop and let cure for the recommended time.\, then shoot the next coat.. HTH
  14. How about this? http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/142670-early-funny-car-reference/page/2/ Hope it helps..
  15. I bet that turns some heads out on the lake...
  16. Well sorta, the front axle is so small in dia. that the ends keep sagging, I'm going to rebuild it with some alum. tubing just as soon as I can get to the store. The engine is complete and I've started doing the foil work. Will post update when I get these problems worked out.
  17. Ray, if you ref. my build? Yes
  18. Thanks, its Testors Inca Gold.
