Very good build. That bare metal foil job looks excellent!

That is a very nice build.

Great job.

Great job and it goes without saying you don't see those everyday,

Great job. I actually like the stripe delete

It would have been nice to be able to do a conversion to a Super Bee. Maybe somebody will make a resin conversion, though that rear panel might be a challenge.

Great job on this 68.

So I am going to be gluing hood scoops on my 71 Demon kit and I have a black out decal on the hood. What glue should i use that won't destroy the decal and hold the scoops on ? Thanks

Fabulous build. Congratulations

That is a gorgeous build.

Looking very good. I think I built this kit back in 1974. I think it might have been the coupe.

Randy I know you told me this before but can you tell me how you did your grill. I am doing mine right now and not really sure how to best do the outline around the area that the parking lights are in. I realized last night that there is no line definition on the grill surrounds. Thanks Dave

I will go over there and look, thanks Tim.

Other than Tim Boyd's great build I actually haven't seen another build of this 63 on our forum. Anyone out there building it?

Looks good. I am glad I am not building that!!! Lol.

Yes great job

Well my update after the weekend. I feel like I am getting the clear polished out and looking good. Probably looks as good as a 71 paint would look. Lol. I applied the Fred Cady decal Sunday. It needs a touch up in a few places but after 1.5 hours of working it I think it looks good. I think it looks better than the hood decal that comes with the kit. It is less glossy and it is the correct pattern. Being a decal that was made what maybe 15-20 years ago it didn't come apart too awfully bad. The soft set was a little rough on it as I moved the decal around especially those two raised areas on the hood of the Demon.

Beautiful build!

I notice the MCW is lacquer and the Scale Finishes is enamel. What do you prefer to work with?

Randy nice looking Firebird. I like the Italian Red on it. Great build.

Nice build Michelle

Very nice!

I have seen a few people use the engine out of the 71 Duster kit which is a much nicer 340. I was tempted to use it but decided to do this build pretty stock.

I actually thought about that and wondered if anyone had success doing that. I also have a set of The Last Detail decals too.

Great build.
