  1. Yeah, most definitely! My 78 Monte Carlo suffered that fate, thanks to the northern Ohio winter weather.
  2. Thank you Bill! Growing up in northern Ohio, I saw lots of this. The dash was super easy, just some scribe marks after painting.
  3. Thanks David! I need to learn some interior weathering tricks, without going too crazy, Lol. This was my 1st attempt, so duct tape, a blanket and a little "grime" was the best thing I could think of at the time.
  4. Thank you! I resisted doing this for so long, because I grew up in northern Ohio, and saw cars like this (especially my beloved 78 Monte Carlo). But I'm beginning to see the fun in not having to worry about the perfect paint job. I would love to hear more about your process. I bought some AK "rust deposits" acrylic, and used embossing powder (plus a Tamiya weathering kit). I also read about putting steel wool in vinegar, to make your own rust deposits. Yes I tried it, and it looks pretty good!
  5. I was referring to the shallow interior detail, and crappy promo type chassis (like the 67 GTO)
  6. That's good information. Thanks for sharing this. So the entire roof structure is taller, or does it have a bit of a downward slope towards the back?
  7. "Three Inches Under" on Etsy has retro emergency resin parts. A lot of his stuff is resin copies of the old Johan accessories (like the gurney from the ambulance kit, and hearse pieces parts).
  8. Especially most of the old "Hot Rod" Series of kits...
  9. Only 40 year old MPC kits are available
  10. That's a good idea. I hope the $$ isn't too high.
  11. That ia a beautiful old truck! Your two-tone looks great.
  12. Very cool! A Ram in "Stealth" Mode, Lol.
  13. That's beautiful! I have that kit too, it's my favorite body style, next to the 78-79 models.
  14. Great looking build! Those are two beautiful trucks.
  15. That's beautiful! The paint is amazing, and goes perfectly with the interior color.
  16. That's amazing! Excellent color choice.
  17. That is an amazing build!
  18. You can always add some sheet plastic & strips to make a B pillar & trim.
  19. Isn't the bench seat in the Supernatural kit stock?
  20. That is amazing! I love the color.
