Here you go a Z-11 427 it fits like a glove . Round 2 should do some Tom strum decals for the new 64 chevelle kit. For the drive train use the 62 bel air super stock kit

This is the mpc grumpy’s toy hiding under testors lacquer and slixx decals. I made the front spoiler from the one in the amt 1970 Z -28 kit. It takes some cutting and filling to make it fit good. I added a parts box small block Chevy engine. I just picked out a easy to get paint color that matches the die cast funny car that’s in the magazine cover photo. Until next time thanks for looking ?.

This was made from a altered states resin stock height 1933 Willy’s body with a amt donor kit. The hemi is sourced from a amt parts pack. It’s painted in tamyia bright red with slixx decals . The square hole halibrand front wheels are resin pieces I brought off eBay. Until next time thanks for looking ?. Mike

Thanks John , I actually built this about 10 years ago when the kit first came out. With decals I find that a lot of times theses small producer’s go out of business or someone passes away. Woopiekat had quite a few decals I would have liked to get. Then one day they were gone. Now I just get them when I see them even if it will be years before I use them.

Thanks much appreciated

Google search southern Motorsport hobbies and look up yesteryear drag decals .They’re a good source they have a lot of different sheets.

This is the revell 1962 impala kit which I converted to super stock trim by making a custom set of headers, and adding slicks. I also slightly modified the front suspension to give it a more aggressive stance. The decals came from mcw paint and resin which I believe are no longer available ? with decals you buy them when you see them as most are not mass produced. If they weren’t so expensive I would buy a second set just in case I screw up the first set.Until next time thanks for looking ?. Mike

This started with the mpc hot rod mustang funny car topped off with decals from chuck Boener . The decals had to be cut down to fit the mpc body until next time thanks for looking ?, mike

I built this out of the revell 1970 barracuda kit. I used amt wheels and slicks l crafted the headers from solder and aluminum tubing. It’s painted in testors white enamel with aftermarket decals. It’s a nice simple build. However I think the revell body is a bit on the chunky side with its dimensions. All in all it looks good on the shelf. Until next time thanks for looking ? , Mike

I started out with the revell jungle Jim kit . With the rear wheel wings that were left over parts from the mpc blue max funny car. The paint color is testors lacquer with clear. The decals came by the way of the talented chuck boener . I swapped out the kit’s wheels , and the interior hat with some spares from a polar lights funny car. As always thanks for looking ?, Mike

Thanks John, I agree with you always buy decals when you see them I feel like have more decals then I’ll have time to use . Which is not a bad thing

I started out with a set of slixx decals and a resin barracuda body from joe at freemont resins . I used the chassis for the amt 1966 mustang funny car and pulled the hemi from my vast supply of spare parts. The wheels are also parts box items. I made the injector stacks for aluminum tubing and covered the body with testors red white and blue. I fabricated the roll cage form .080 plastic rod In my opinion this night time cover shot burning through the rosin is the best ever super stock cover. Until next time thanks for looking ?’ Mike

I used the amt kit for most of everything, the wheels came from revell’s thunderbolt, the slicks are amt the headers are custom made to fit the chassis. I have lost count of how many times I glued my fingers to the body attaching all the side trim and trim for the vinyl top. I painted it tamyia dark blue which almost looks black which I believe was the original color of the car . The decals are old Billy gooche. This was a complicated build getting the body’s trim right and sanded around. Until next time thanks for looking ?, Mike

It looks awesome . The wedge from the lindburg color me gone kit would be a good fit it has good set of headers

Thanks I’ll be posting quite a few this month

This car represents the early days of pro stock or heads up super stock. The mpc kit has just about everything you need I added the correct wheels, and made up a set of headers out of solder and aluminum tubing I also added side windows which I cut from clear plastic sheet. I covered the body in testors purple lacquer with wet look clear. The decals are from smp. This mpc kit is a all time great , and builds up real fast and easy it’s not overly detailed like the modern tooling of today’s new kits . I’ve built quite a few of them into super stockers and they all look great on my shelf. Until next time thanks for looking ?, Mike

Thanks dan

Wow that BAE hemi is real statement piece. I like the black wheels with the gray primer. Nice job ?

This is a box stock build of the big John Mazmanian Barracuda funny car kit. It’s painted with testors clear red over a gold base enamel. These polar lights were very well done and even came with slixx decals. It would be nice to see round 2 make up some more issues of this kit’s chassis with different bodies. Possibly a nova or a camaro or a Torino or a maverick body as the atlas oil tool special. Until next time thanks for looking ?, Mike

Great job on the red white & blue. I love the old johan kits too

I really like the use of the revell 57 nomad as a gasser . This really inspires me to build a gasser by kit bashing the 57 body with the amt 55 kit

Great level of detail it looks you really nailed the color,and the rolled down drivers window is a nice touch. Trophies are well earned.

The vette gasser would make a great reissue

I think it would be better to get a stock 64 Malibu instead

Nice work looks just like the real one. I really like the front break discs . Thanks for posting
