  1. Sometimes, you could get the car for less. ?
  2. Casey makes these. These look exactly like the American Racing Gambler wheel. I had a set of these on my Toyota pickup, but they were 6 lug /6 hole. Good looking wheel. https://www.ebay.com/itm/324518902361?hash=item4b8ed57a59:g:pNYAAOSwPv9gS9vH
  3. Whooo! Thats pretty big. I read somewhere American came out with them in 1968. The curved spokes were meant to clear the disk brakes on the Corvettes.
  4. Not a wheel but if AMT puts those pad printed Firestone Wide Ovals (like the ones in the Surfer van kit) in a parts pack like the once did with the Polyglas pack, I would be all over multiple sets.
  5. Bowie - Dinah Shore show. 1976.
  6. That Petrol Emotion - Babble.
  7. Iron Man - Replacements. Black Sabbath cover. ???
  8. I'm looking, and I can't see where the roof is wrong. Looks pretty good to me.
  9. I'm sure Charles is working on a stinger exhaust of some kind. I'm going to use the one from the AMT Manx kit if I can get it to work. It's 1/25 while the revell kit is 1/24. I found the perfect wheels for this build but they cost more than most full price kits. I'm hoping they will work with the tires I plan on using. 1:24 VW Baja wheels and dragster tire set up | 3DScaleParts
  10. And it's the "wide eyed" version. This one has never been done before in 1/24.
  11. Not to mention, all the movie quotes. ?
  12. Got my shipment from MegaHobby. The were having a sale on the Manx. So I grabbed 2 for the parts for the up coming Baja bug kit. I couldn't fit the factory type grill on the Revell Chevy van so I scrapped the whole project for this Foxy Boxy kit. It comes wit the factory grill in the kit. So now I'm combining the 2 kits . Should be cool. Also my latest Fireball order arrived. Joseph was kind enough to make me some KC Daylighter decals. 4 in 1/16 so I can use them on the big Revell Chevy pickup. One thing I thought was strange. Joseph must have changed his formula for his super swampers. The new ones are light grey and sort of hard. I guess I'll have to paint them.
  13. Contact Charles at Texas 3D Customs. Ask him when the Baja bug kit will be available. Or you can just PM him on this board. We're still working out the bugs (no pun intended) before it goes into production. Texas 3D Customs – Texas3DCustoms (tx3dcustoms.com)
  14. Thats exactly why I watch him. I have absolutely got to see what I'm getting in the kit before I buy it. Sometimes, I will buy the kit just for the extras they come with.
  15. Thats exactly what I have Mike, only without the $50 plus Fireball kit. For that I'm using the Revell GM running gear. I have a stack of them for future 4x4 projects.
  16. You're referring to a GM, T3 headlight. The triangle should point down.
  17. Replacements - Old Grey Whistle Test.
  18. Galaxie 500 - On Fire.
  19. Poison Ivy - Peter Gunn Theme.
  20. Thats similar to the yellow I painted mine years ago. I was surprised to learn years later that the movie car (s) were actually painted in that '71 Citron Yella. I first saw the film on late-night network TV. You really couldn't tell from that.
