  1. Do they make a plastic coated wire that could be used for bending roll cages/bars into shape when trying to make a roll cage ?
  2. Does anybody know where I could get a sheet or two ? I have what is left of what I think was sold by Spot Models, but I see that they have been discontinued. Are there any other ones available. I mostly build cars from the original Trans Am series.
  3. I haven't been on this site in a long time, so I Need to post my good news. After years of searching I finally was able to purchase a Coachworks a 1964 Pontiac trans am body. (Thanks Wild Bill). Has anyone had experience with building it ? I know Swede 70 has done one, and it is very informative, just looking for others advice.
  4. Is there anyone making them ?
  5. Do any resin caster make these tail lights ? I am building a 53 Ford F 100 replica of my brother in laws truck. Also looking for skull exhaust outlet covers.
  6. So does any kit come with or does anybody cast or 3D print them? I'm doing a model of my brother in laws truck that has these on it They have the blue dot on them.
  7. I'm looking for a decal sheet that has fuel filler doors on it. Like the IMSA Trans am Penske etc. I have a decal sheet that is almost used up, & I don't know who made then. I could use photo etch too I guess. I build vintage trans am cars.
  8. Iceman collections on ebay make a wide body kit for the 67 Camaro that you may be able to adapt to the 69 by modifying them. Kit includes front & rear fender flares & front & rear spoilers for $16.00 plus $6.00 shipping. I used them on a Revell 67 Camaro trans am car I built & they look great.
  9. I submitted a request 2 months ago for some replacement decals. Never heard a thing from them since.
  10. What a great build. I have heard a rumor that a Rambler once ran in a Trans AM race back in the day. I have wanted to build something like this, & you have really inspired me to do it. Love the turquoise
  11. Did anyone on this site happen to buy the decal set for this car that sold on ebay last month? I missed buying them. I contacted the seller & he doesn't have any more for sale. He bought a bunch of different decals from someone, so he doesn't know who made them either. If I could find who bought them I would like to try & borrow them to get some made for my model that I built. I took a screen shot of the decal & sent it to a couple of decal maker's, but they said the pics weren't good enough to make copies from. I really need a set to finish this great car I built.
  12. The white back round sheet doesn't show up to well.
  13. This is a pic of the decal sold on ebay. Is there anyway I could get it remade?
  14. I'm looking for the decal sheet for the Pontiac Tempest Gray Ghost Trans Am car & it was suggested I contact you, as you did the decals for Swedes 1/18 scale build. I saw a set sell on ebay last month, but the seller doesn't have any more to sell. I have a built 1/25 scale (not coachworks) that I need the decals for.
  15. Does anybody have or know where I can get a decal sheet for this car? I was looking around on ebay a couple of days ago & found a set that sold last month on there. I messaged the guy & he doesn't have any more & doesn't know where they came from as he bought a bunch of decals from a friend. The set had pretty much every decal as on the original car. I know Swede was doing a 1/18 scale version some time ago & had some made I think. I built a 1/25 version & could really use a set of decals.
  16. Ok I was talking about the rubber tires, but I'm not interested in the plastic ones Thanks anyway.
  17. Very nicely done. I noticed you didn't use the Firestone Sport 500 rubber tires in your build. Do you still have them & if so do you want to sell them? I'm building a replica of a 72 Opel GT I had in my youth, & think the Firestone tires would look great on my build. I don't remember if I had sport 500 tires on mine, but I do remember they were wider than stock Firestone tires.
  18. Nice build. I found some NOS Stinger decals on ebay so of course I had to go out & buy the AMT Prestige kit. You are right about the kit & the build it had me going crazy at times. I somehow lost one of the headers, & that's all I need to complete. I'm gonna modify some parts box headers & then it will be done.
  19. So did they add to the chassis where that funky piece goes across by the exhaust pipes? You are right about it not being as raced. Pictures of the real car are hard to find. I was going to modify the rear wheel area for bigger tires, but decided just to go ahead & build it as is. I wish the Firestone tires were a bit wider in the back.
  20. I finished this up a couple days ago. A pretty easy build, but the hardest thing for me was the paint job. Using an old Kodak ezshare z 710 camera, so the colors are not quite right. It doesn't do blue very well.
  21. I'm working on building this car too. Still have a ways to go, but I hope it turns out as good as yours.
