  1. That turned out great. I'll have to experiment with your carpet material sometime as it looks interesting.
  2. I owned '73 and '74 Colonnade coupes and while they were nice cars I can relate to what you've written. Most notably with both of them was drivability issues when first starting out in humid conditions. Post '75 G.M. vehicles I owned were less problematic in that regard due to what you've described and I'd imagine the high energy ignitions. With respect to the article John posted I seem to remember reading somewhere that the 455 in the Trans Am was dropped after '74 only to be reintroduced during '75 due to customer demand. At 200 H.P. it was basically the station wagon engine and a drop of 50 H.P from the '74 offering. Interesting article as I didn't realize an emissions choked (as they all were) 360 in the '76 Dart could achieve such a high speed.
  3. Wow, that is very nice. Great color combination and detailing on the seat pattern.
  4. Another well engineered and highly detailed model Andy. I particularly like the swivel seats.
  5. Well executed build as always David. The multi tone interior looks perfect for that era. I've never built a Moebius kit but it's apparent they are nicely detailed models.
  6. Great looking paint work on a really sharp looking Bird. Those cars had such beautifully designed interiors.
  7. That's a great looking build. I like the woodgrain effect that was used.
  8. That's as perfect a build as it gets. The smooth clear coat looks especially good over the hood decal.
  9. Super impressive build especially considering it's from a rebuilder. The foil lines running the length of the body look perfect.
  10. Awesome paint job and a really sharp color.
  11. Great color choice for a Beetle. Excellent build.
  12. A really attractive color combination on a great build.
  13. Looks great Mario. I wasn't aware of this AMT version with the opening trunk.
  14. A most impressive build of a sharp looking version of the Camaro. Don't ever recall seeing any A.I.R. systems installed on a scale model accurate right down to the check valve like yours.
  15. Super nice build with perfect detailing. And in an eye catching color combination. And thanks for the tip on creating a radiator cap as it's very realistic looking.
  16. That is very impressive work. The TS-54 was a great choice and the Heirloom White does a good job of representing a parchment interior. It's funny because until I saw this build I wasn't even aware of the kits existence. Nice looking mold.
  17. Will be interesting to see one of these recreated as a Beaumont especially since I don't ever recall seeing one as a scale version.
  18. Super nice build. Your motors are always very nicely detailed.
  19. Absolutely stunning with every detail picked out to perfection. I have always heard these are great kits.
  20. Yeah, you're right David. What the heck was I thinking.
  21. Some very impressive iron. Someone did a fantastic job restoring the interior on that '60 Impala convertible.
  22. Great work on all of them. I do remember that Thunderbird and it's attractive colors and wheels.
  23. That's funny because I never really noticed that while watching his videos.

    4 in '24....

    Those are some eye popping builds. That Cutlass looks great in purple and white.
  25. Those are extremely impressive.
