  1. Is anyone interested in resin copies of the overhead-cam Corvair engine from the AMT Astro I kit?
  2. I have an order placed on May 16. Another on June 17.
  3. A friend of mine is doing the 70 conversion using the AMT 68 and front end from a Monogram 70 Chevelle. Not much adjusting was required to make it fit. The model looks really good. I'd post a picture but for some reason my computer doesn't recognize files on my phone.
  4. Thanks for the kind compliments Rusty.
  5. There was a bronze color that looked really good with the black graphics.
  6. Looks like the pieces in the kit that connect to the heads need to have some thickness added to create the proper look for each intake plenum.
  7. Speed City Resins: http://speedcityresin.com/PartsPageEngine.html (Scroll down a bit)
  8. LOL. FMXs are heavy but fairly bulletproof. Based on the old Cruise-o-matic. Different from a C6 in many ways.
  9. Not sure about the decals, but the original kit came with pretty much what you see here as far as wheels etc.
  10. Especially since you're standing on the curb.... (lol)
  11. Academy did a McLaren M8A or B in 1/24. Also there is a March 707 kit.
  12. His resin is very nice. I have had the opportunity to see the development of some of his masters. Michael researches everything he does thoroughly and his detail and casting work are some of the best I've seen. Michael is working on something right now that will impress a lot of builders.
  13. Gee. Thanks. I thought of a lot of ways to respond to this. But I won't.
  14. Runabout was the name given to the hatchback Pinto.
  15. No, the only thing close for those years is the AMT 65 Olds Dynamic 88. You could mate the 65 Grand Prix roof to a 65 Olds body, but then you would have to modify the grille and taillights to make a Starfire/Jetstar.
  16. I saw several of the AMT Mod Rods at my LHS yesterday.
  17. Those are from Scale Equipment Limited.
  18. I saw a newly opened kit the other night. The roof looked OK to me.
  19. There was a second issue of the annual kit in a larger box with different box art. Not sure what year it came out.
  20. I would say to use the 65-66 Galaxie kit as a donor. 64 and previous had a totally different chassis.
