Also keeps locking up

Since the update NO pictures are showing/loading and I can’t reply to topics ( it won’t even allow me to type anything) . Any ideas ? Current form is unusable.

Here’s a couple of the final mock up before paint. I’ve had this idea kicking around inside my head since the 80’s

I would love to pick one of these up. I had a 91 LX 5.0 that I’ve always wanted to build a model of. How or where can I pick one up ?

I’d be interested too

Made some progress on this one. Most fab/fit work as well as final mock up is done. I’ve started painting everything now. Comments and questions are always welcome

I’ve ordered from them a few times and never had any issues. The orders came just as quickly as some orders I’ve received from state side companies.

Great job ! Looks amazing.

Very nice ??

Hello all, so I purchased this built up on EBay for $20 or $30 ( can’t quite remember exactly) a while ago. It was fairly complete but I took it apart and threw the painted stuff into the purple pond. The plan came to me quickly.... not stock,not even day 2..... I’m going for that 6-7 year old muscle car turned into a nasty street machine... a “ day 6 “ theme. Go fast parts and mean look . It will have a tunnel fed 429 SCJ, cragars , black paint and a black vinyl top. I included a few photos showing what I started with and how it’s going. Used a couple other kits as donors ( Revell 70 torino & Amt 71 cyclone nascar kit ) as well as raiding my parts box and several parts from Missing link ( BIG thank you to missing link ! )

My cyclone restoration currently getting some bench time.....

I just want the hood scoop

I never even attempted it with this build. This build was just a quick/ fun build and I didn’t really want to invest extra time in getting the doors to work well. Instead I focused more on getting the stance right and opening up the radius of the rear wheel openings. Wish I opened them more actually.

Thank you for the compliment. It was basically same scenario for me. Built one back in early eighties when I was younger but wanted to build another now that My skills have gotten better some 30+ years later lol. Sure it’s a fiddly old Revell kit but I’ve certainly built worse and sometimes I enjoy the challenge of making it better. Definitely give it a shot Thank you. I love gassers as well and felt I had to have a good looking Henry J gasser in the collection. Bad reviews/opinions aside, it can still present well. Thank you

Welcome fellow NYer

My order has arrived and NO SURPRISE........ it looks awesome!! So worth the wait. Thank you Steve for all the work you did in making the master and thank you Ed for making it possible for the rest of us to have these parts. I did purchase a few other parts as well for future project. If anyone hasn’t checked out Ed’s other products I strongly recommend you do. Over the years I’ve purchased many other things ( chopped deuce, hoods ....etc ) and hands down some of the nicest out there on top outstanding customer service.

No models at the new Latham location.

I live close and plan on checking it out, I’ll let you guys know

Hart’s parts resin has flat hood. https://hartspartsresin.com/

I second this method and they’re relatively inexpensive new ... even cheaper at garage sales

I’d love to pick up one of those Shelby convertibles but the site already says sold out. I keep missing it. ?

I don’t have Facebook but I can use a friends to try to get a hold of Dmitry. I’ve got 20x9.5 & 20x11’s CS66 on my 07 Shelby and want to do the same as you and build a replica of my car. I’ve got CS3’s on my 19 GT in the same size that I’d also like to replicate. Hopefully Dmitry can help out. What did you use for a source for tires ?

Ed is a great guy and when I ordered he told the wait would be longer than normal. I don’t mind waiting ,as I said above worth the wait. Been great watching yours come along though.

Looks absolutely beautiful ! Nice work . I’m still waiting for my order but obviously WELL worth the wait.

Looks great ! What 3D printer did the wheels come from? Do they do custom orders? I’m looking for Shelby CS66’s and CS3’s
