I love this! Decals and wheels are a huge improvement over the original ?

I think the USAC Triple Crown winners would have a different opinion. Pancho CarterTony StewartDave DarlandJ.J. YeleyJerry Coons, Jr.Tracy Hines Chris Windom

Found it. MPC 1969 Bonneville. https://drasticplasticsmcc.fotki.com/mkiba-build-under-c/mpc-instructions/automotive-cars--pi/pontiac/1961-1970/mpc-1969-pontiac-bo/?view=roll#2

Tom, I think that is the custom grille from the MPC 1970 Pontiac Bonneville Open Sportster, the one that was recently reissued.

Just logged in and I got this too.

This really came together well. I dig it! ?

Doane Spencer?

I found this purely by accident. I dig it ?

Same here. But I sure hope the real thing handles better than the one in the game ?

I'm getting schooled here, on a subject I thought I really knew. The 1960 NHRA rulebook says nothing about gas class cars needing to sit level, and does not have the 24" to crankshaft engine height requirement. The 1968 rulebook states that "bodies and/or frames may not be raised to gain weight transfer" and has the crankshaft rule. 1960: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/2006u57wp7sqpxt/AAC9WnRAsXqmyEgvaR8KYSowa?preview=1960_Drag_Rules.pdf 1968: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/2006u57wp7sqpxt/AAC9WnRAsXqmyEgvaR8KYSowa?preview=1968_Drag_Rules.pdf More rulebooks courtesy of VW93. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/2006u57wp7sqpxt/AAC9WnRAsXqmyEgvaR8KYSowa

Look at the class designations. The first two are BM/SP meaning B Modified Sports. They aren't gassers. I don't remember what the deal is with L'il Crawl Along. My brain is telling me it wasn't in the US, but I could be mistaken. The last 'Vette looks like it has /MSP on the windshield. The T-Bird shown in the OP most likely is not a gasser since it doesn't have a roof, or at least the convertible top up.

That's a great survivor! Is this the model that was on the cover of either Auto World or Car Model Magazine back in the 60's?

Eric Ellerbusch and Russ Beckwith both come to mind. This is Eric's Riviera. I don't know if he ever finished it. Last time I saw a post on it he was making some pretty tasty modifications. And this is Russ' immaculate Model A Cabriolet. He's also got a nice shoebox Ford.

That's for sure! More like the lovely flat sound of a Ferrari, nothing like a v8.

If it's the Pyro/Lindberg kit, instructions are here: https://public.fotki.com/drasticplasticsmcc/mkiba-build-under-c/pyro/pyro-1935-auburn-sp/auburninst2.html#media

Wow, that was fun to watch! I'm not so good with a drone, so I can appreciate the skill that took.

You might also try posting this on a slot car forum such as SlotForum or SlotBlog. Jel Claws makes tires for 1/64 and 1/32 slot cars, that are some sort of compound that's better than urethane. I realize that's no where near the size you need, but perhaps that might steer you in the right direction. Google "Jel Claws" Good luck ?

That's pretty neat. I like it ?

This one?

I'd love that if it had "proper" sized wheels and tires. ?

If I had a '61 Olds and needed some door handles, I'd be crying about now ?

The wheel on the left looks like it's from the MPC 71 Mercury Cyclone. I think the one on the far right is from a Maverick promo, based upon the large boss for the axle, and the orange-red color of the plastic.

I'll have to look at my VW kit and check that roof scoop. ?

Yep the blue one is the '56 Ford. The '29 pickup seat is 2-piece.

#5 is the side window scoop from the original Revell VW bug. This is the pink one, it also came in the Inch Pincher. #7 yes. #8 yes #9 looks more the top to the Revell Buttera 34 Ford Coupe. #11 should be the custom hood from the MPC AMX. #15 you're correct.
