  1. Oh. I wasn't aware of that. Thanks.
  2. You hear that Revell. Everyone wants this kit only with the stock grill.
  3. Sweet! You can send them to me if you want. I have a Revell bug kit for the donor car. I would say my building skills are above average.
  4. I wish it did David. Modlblder (Tom) is sending me one that he got at a swap meet. I also like the stock grill.
  5. Thats not the same one.
  6. All right Charles! You decided to go with the wide eye version. I check the site every day to see if it is available yet. Been itching for this one!
  7. For the side fins, I was able to use the clothes pin again. This time I used a popsicle stick to get the tilt I needed. 3 fins down, 3 to go!
  8. Was there ever any kit with a '67 GTO ram air pan made in 1/25?
  9. Is it too soon to re-release this kit? Maybe this time Revell could give us a choice of Hemi or 440 six pack. They would only have to include different valve covers and decals. The heads still might work.
  10. Modlbldr. Thanks again Tom for the Chevy van grill.
  11. Soundgarden - Later with Jools Holland.
  12. Linton Kwesi Johnson. Making History.

  14. Nice shaping Les! If I had to do it again, I might choose a softer material like the 1:1s. Foam. I had to sit there and hold that first trailing fin for what felt like forever waiting for the glue to set up, so I came up with a sort of jig to hold it in place this time. The side fins have to tilt out slightly so I will have to come up with something else.
  15. I marked out the proposed fin locations and used a tiny Dremel bit to make some pockets for the fins to seat into. Only made one test fin so far. One down, five to go.
  16. Happy birthday Mike! ?
  17. Sweet! For some reason, I just like that grill.
  18. Been tediously sanding away with an emery board. I used some sandpaper around a pen to get the nose conture. Slowly getting to the desired shape. Haven't started on the fins yet.
  19. Attn: Round 2. It's time to re-release this kit.
  20. This one from Mecum this weekend was pretty cool looking. Plain on the outside but wild on the inside. Love that colorful shag carpeting. 1976 Dodge Custom Van | F65 | Dallas 2022 (mecum.com)
  21. Thanks again rsmodels (Rich) for the shifters and extras.
  22. My Chevy van kit arrived as well as some shifters and parts from rsmodels (Rich). Just came from HL and grabbed a '67 GTO kit and some paint. Another package expected today. Man! My credit card is taking a beating this month. Next week, I can focus on painting as that humidity has backed off a bit.
