  1. Thanks Buddy. Yeah, need to get that elbow grease out ?
  2. I learned to drive in a 57 Studebaker. 3 speed on the column. It was my grandfathers.
  3. Yeah, the shelves around here get bare as well when they have the 40% off. Been waiting on the AMT 67 Chevelle Pro Street, AMT 66 Nova Pro Street, AMT 1950 Chevy pickup, and the 40 Willy's pickup to hit the shelves but I don't think I'm going to see them anymore.
  4. Looking pretty sharp there Billy. Nice work.
  5. Nice looking work on the Charger Dave. Love those Pro Street cars & trucks. I'm working on a 55 Pro Street right now.
  6. Great looking El Camino Oliver. Good looking blue. Excellent job.
  7. That paint job looks pretty kewl. Nice work in the engine bay. Great job.
  8. Nice looking Nova Craig. That color really pops. I like the Hoosier tire in the back. Yeah, the ole traction bars. I remember those well.
  9. Thanks Carl. Well, so far, I shaved a small section off the back of the chassis and a little off the front so it was the proper length. Then, I cut out the front wheel wells. The chassis is not wide enough so I'm adding some styrene to the sides of the chassis so it will mate up to the body. There is going to have to be a little work on the 55 interior bucket to get it to play well with the Chevelle chassis but not much. Lots of trial and error. I'm actually following a video a fellow on YouTube posted on this same kit bash. I'm really enjoying this one.
  10. Thanks Bob.
  11. The wheels are painted black and hard to see. They are the wheels & tires out of the AMT 66 Nova Pro Street kit. I will not be using those wheels & tires. The wheels and tires from the 67 Chevelle will be used.
  12. Yup....the years click along pretty fast.
  13. That's a good looking Impala there Douglas. I like the V-10 on the business end. Great build man.
  14. Thanks Carl. It was a fun build.
  15. Man....I do appreciate the offer James but I plan on buying another 67 kit anyway so I'll have what I need. That's what this hobby is all about, fellows willing to help out one another.
  16. Thanks Michael. Yeah, it did take a lot of cleaning of the flash. The panel likes on the deck lid are pretty rough and not in a straight line. Other than that, its's pretty nice.
  17. Nice looking. The wheels and engine looks great.

    '32 Roadster

    What a kewl looking Roadster. I like the color and the wing windows look nicer. Great build.
  19. That Hemi should be nice. That's what I would use. I want some white letter tires. If HL gets any more of the Chevelle kits I'll buy a couple at 40% off.
  20. Thanks man. Yeah, the McCullochs were the cats meow back in the day.
  21. Thanks. Haha....yeah, no foil.
