  1. STS made them for me ,,I checked Glory Years,,I've got a few from him in the past ,,he didn't have Reid's but I did get Ronald Lyles 'cuda !
  2. Body done,have to fit side glass,,,,, I have to pull out the distributors and drive and try to lower them ,,,during test fit the hood won't clear!,,,just a bit ,,,but you know how that works ! lol
  3. Thanks Roger,,I got the body painted and decaled ,,,I'll put up some pics.......I have a clearance problem with the dual distributors and the hood so I have to work that out before I mount the body,,I probably should have built the engine up more during mock up rather than just a long block
  4. Thanks Mike,,,SMP had some great decals ,, with Bruce passing away hopefully they'll be picked up by someone ,,yeah in hind sight I shoulda bought a bunch more too ....RIP Bruce
  5. I picked one up on Ebay ,,,on the "to do" list ,,that looks good with the dump body and plow frame!
  6. Great job! Did those LCU's and LCAC's come with the Wasp ?
  7. Looks good!
  8. I've made them from aluminum tubing,but that is nice!
  9. That thing is sweet! Great build!
  10. ..........progress report rough in/mockup of something that resembles a 4 link/wheelie bars and Dana 60 (I used the pro street GTX for that) .Changed from rear steer to front and cobbling up a rack and pinion,,it should clear the headers if not I have to use solder to make them.Cobble up front disc brakes,rears were still drum. Fab up front motor plate . Start some body work-fill the cowl vent /fuel cap/side markers / I have to trim the rear wheel openings a bit ,,,the actual car had them stretched a bit anyway .Guardsmen Blue paint ordered from MCW which I believe is correct ,,the red will be decals with McCandless lettering ........hopefully it will all come together,,,lol .Oh yeah I used the Nova pro street kit for the floor pan/chassis wheelbase is darn near perfect.Hemi will have D5 heads and tunnel ram and deep oil pan from a JoHan pro street cuda kit/3D print headers (if they clear ,,its close in mock up)
  11. One of the wheelie bars broke ,not enough time to fix so Buddy Martin made the decision to pull both bars off
  12. yeah they have Reid on one sheet and Whisnant on another and Plymouth by Sox & Martin on another ! so I got those ,,,lol and a free one
  13. Looking for Reid's 72 Pro Stock Duster decals,,,I think Slixx did them wayyy back ...not sure
  14. ...........was pondering my next build all day while working outside,,,lol yeah I know I said maybe a truck,,maybe Ray Barton's SS/AH Dart ,,,but then I remembered why I got the Demon kit in the 1st place,,,so tonight I got this pile on the bench ?
  15. Being retired I have all the time in the world,,,lol ,,,actually I'm only in the workshop a few hours at night and when I can't work outside around the house
  16. 68 Road Runner to GTX conversion done,,my only regret is that this wasn't a JoHan body with more correct proportions .I'm using my new backdrop kit from STS Decals ,,,looks better with this than on my slobbered up bench mat ! The air cleaner pie pan is incorrect,,should be Super Commando ,,,,don't have or could find any,,,Fred Cady might have made them ,,so instead I used one of his 440 Magnums ,,,for a Dodge and the last pic is when I realized I forgot the drivers side mirror! lol ! On to the next build...... maybe a truck,,,or maybe the Ray Barton SS/AH Hemi Dart ........hmmmm
  17. Got mine on Tuesday ,,good stuff inside!
  18. Nice build! I still need to do mine !
  19. I had ordered some decals early April ,,never got them,,sent emails and text messages,no reply,,unusual because Bruce usually responded within a day....they showed up the other day with a note from I guess his wife saying "I hope I got this order right,,,Bruce passed away a few weeks ago "
