Thank you!

Jeff, If you are willing to send, I’ll take it and see where we go with this! I would definitely have a few made like last time. Thank you in advance! Message me with your needs for this gesture!

Mike, I commissioned Greg to do these for me as a limited run. I recently wanted to run this again, but was told the mold for the under hood Formula bracing was done. Unfortunately, I returned that to the guy who made it. I only have one copy left, for myself. I am considering doing all new plastic masters. I don’t know what Greg has. BTW, I’m in Royersford!

Just got word that Wylde is printing Steelies! $6 for a set of 4.

We are still working out the details. Wylde is feverishly working on the parts as we speak and he will ship to me sometime in August. You can check his webpage for product and then let me know what you need, at that time. His website: canuck3d@wylde.ca

There are several model show venues and clubs I can hook up with. If you can pick it up and look at it, it’s sold! I may even try NNL East if the show is held. Mama’s boys just had a show, but a trip down to a club meeting might work! Then again, Lyle can up up in Feb and we can spend quality time in the my “meat locker” shop!

Still working on the details.

I have a printed version!

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Wylde Parnelle on a few custom projects. Stand up, very talented guy! Over the course of time, we’ve become friends. In our many discussions, shipping over the border is an issue. One of my other friends was interested in a set of wheels, but $30, total, killed that sale. All this being said, I have agreed to distribute his product in the US. Save us some money by not having to ship over the border. Currently, we ship stuff back and forth. Bulk shipping works a little better than small parts shipping. In the coming weeks, we plan on finalizing some details. I do plan on having a vendor table at the September Showdown in Boyertown, PA! See how this goes and proceed accordingly! I know some of you are aware, as I announced this in my last column! So far your responses to me, have been most positive! I think once you work with Wylde’s parts, you will be very pleased. More details will follow!

My friend had one. His dad worked for Greyhound as a driver. He told us that GM wanted to emulate the Greyhound visual experience in a family car.

Just checked and it’s no longer with me. Sorry!

Wow, Tom! I bought this ages ago for the wheels and tires. I’ll be in my shop later today and I can check to see what I may still have left, if anything.

BTW, Dennis… you’ll like Wylde…he’s into Vega/Monzas…..have him show you the door jamb conversion he’s doing for himself!

Model of my Monza! Current real money pit!

You can message Wylde Parnelle for more info. He posted in this thread. After the Vega, I had a’79 Monza 2+2. Since I was still involved with performance parts, it got a Holley carb and manifold.

I could have had a Yenko Stinger Kammback with the turbo in the box! With a parts car for $150…..

1976 may have been the year for the most color choices… ‘ Do a Google image search. Blue, white, green, orange…. Lot’s of food for thought! ‘74 was just black, as I recall. 1975 may have added the dark red….

I was working at S&W Race Cars when I completed the car…it was my daily driver! 4 speed was a bit brutal. Later changed to a TH 350. Slingshot! ‘Glas fenders and hood. This would be about 1977. Bought the car new in ‘73.

I’m very happy to have these wheels. Mustang II wheels just don’t look right! If these do not meet your standards, it is your choice not to buy them! The wheels were mocked up into my logo Kammback. The tires are for that specific application, which will have a ‘67 style Rally Wheel. Strictly a visual. Never thinking that it would be judged for accuracy. Never the intent. The trim rings are from a Nova kit that were cut down. Again, a visual representation as I didn’t want to paint or have time to chrome the trim rings provided. I just wanted to see how they looked under a Vega! I like to put the options out there and let the builder decide. Sometimes, just a simple pic can really spur creativity!

Ace: In my neck of the woods, they were pushing Dellorto carbs. I had a GT. Between the carbs and manifold…and me being in college… a Lynx air cleaner for my GT was all I could afford! Lol! However, later came the small block, 12 bolt and 4 speed. In retrospect, a healthy choice! Many dealerships were ill-equipped to service the Cosworth. I only knew of 2 that would even take one in for a tune up! Techs didn’t want to touch them.

Last guy to do decals was Keith Marks.

I couldn’t have been more thrilled to get the Cosworth wheels from Wylde Parnelle! I’ve been encouraging him to complete the package and do the engine. My ‘74 kit has been patiently waiting for decades! Today he sent me pic of the client who was first in line. I’d like to share that pic. As soon as I get one, I will do the details and commentary. This really is a thrill for a Vega guy! Brian Tompkins photo credit.

Lol! What he wanted was a raw one. I kept him waiting more than I wanted to. Decided to give him the one I was working on. Goes out Monday to him! Hope to get a few more made, but in resin. So much easier to work with!

For all you safety freaks… I enclosed both red and black material for John to make his straps with!
