    A rare kit I wish they'd bring back

    I feel like this would be in Canuck3d wheelhouse and hopefully he will come up with something @Wylde

    I hogged out the slots on the hinges and that seemed to help. The windshield on mines seems to have to go on top of the cowl for better fit. I'm sure if there was more glass adjustment earlier on, I would've been good. See? It's not too bad at the beginning, but note no glass and no dash. Maybe I had to cut the dash back more. I did glue the interior to the chassis first, seems like the only thing with positive mounts, then I worked forward and rearwards from there

    some Darts I built last year

    Monogram 66 vette, box stock, and lowered

    Yup, you're right, but the Turtle Wax version wasn't doing it for me, maybe because there wasn't one back in the day? The Cragars look so good too

    Oh man, now I wish I bought that kit.. thats the nice thing about those 70s era MPC kits, they kept using the same few wheels on everything
  8. Hondamatic
    Yes! And don't forget the convertibles too! You're almost making me wanna build more 64 Galaxies now! FYI I used the modified stocker version interior and chassis plate for my NASCAR one, but that kit comes with a bunch of the old custom version parts too and just about everything can swap over

    So rad, I wonder if Atlantis has these
  10. Hondamatic
    Looks fantastic, what paint did you use for body color?
  11. Hondamatic
    I'm kinda hoping these would come back, but Maybe they didn't because the Cragars were lost? Throw some extra mural decals kinda like the Dirty Donny van.. Would be an easy one to make, to help make money for the backdating... ?

    I was gonna do the NASCAR one in black, but it may be too much black with the deleted trim. You may have to get 4 or 5, because a stock black one with red interior and a factory lightweight style one would look good too
  13. Hondamatic
    Wow, you were actually able to contact them? I keep getting sent around in circles
  14. Hondamatic
    Yeah it's been a couple years since ours sold models I saw a guy selling a started project awb amt galaxie on ebay and I had to copy it

  16. Hondamatic
    This is awesome

    When Walmart had those Ford drag combos, I bought a bunch, so I had a lot of these Galaxies around. As you can see, they can be built in many styles. Maybe a stock one next

    Don't be like me and test fit your glass early on! ? Oh, and the scoop was left loose to be able to flip the front, I didnt realize it was crooked in the photos
  19. Hondamatic
    I think the dash and the doghouse are different? I would use the clear roof to show off the interior. I'm considering doing an FBI surveillance van myself ?
  20. Hondamatic
    Thank you, it's mostly Badman parts haha
  21. Hondamatic
    Thank you, these were before my time so I had to resort to online photos rather than experience. I did forget to "chrome" the diff cover, but any other tricks or "must have mods" back in the day? Photo is a car from Hawaii that inspired my model
  22. Hondamatic
    I noticed this quick after I two toned my 82 ?
  23. Hondamatic
    Yes, they're different among the existing kits too
  24. Hondamatic
