  1. Agreed. This kit reminds me of the Monogram '80s & '90s NASCAR kits that were the best. Well done, Revell!
  2. I messsged Tom soon after this thread was new. He said the grille was too fragile to be cast in resin.
  3. If you want to improve the accuracy of the Ventura, I understand. However, all my photo references show the Grand National Catalinas with the Pontiac script on the grille.
  4. Very kool! Well done.
  5. MAD resin looks nice! Here is the Revell piece (without bellhousing, since I was mating it to a Revell '40 flathead as seen in the 1st pic). You can see the "B&M" on the trans pan in these photos.. Hope this helps. -M
  6. Yeah, the Revell Buttera kits have a nice C-4. Doesn't the AMT '67 Fairlane GT/GTA also have one. If so, you could pirate it and still build the kit as a GTA.
  7. Thanks for that, Bill. Very helpful!
  8. Neat! Nice build. IMO, the best paint scheme ever. I used to love watching that black 3 car on the track.
  9. A member on the Randy Ayers board posted that these kits were "in port" this past Tuesday, per Dave the Model King.
  10. You should author a book on weathering. Your realistic weathering is the best I've seen. Well done! A feast for the eyes.
  11. Neat! I love the seat decals. Nice job.
  12. Just completed a perfect trade with Jhedir6 (David). Highly recommended trader! Thanks David.
  13. I haven't done figures since some small D&D pieces 30 years ago. But, dang, that is too kool! I may have to purchase... Thanks for the great video review. Fun watch.
  14. Looks good! I like that '58 Impala bumper for those same reasons - stylish wraparound and you can narrow them at the 1:1 factory seams. Thumbs up.
  15. Nice range of colors and shades. Acrylic lacquer - Isn't that what Tamiya TS sprays are?
  16. Very kool! Love the proportions...and the weathering, of course.
  17. I started assembly on mine last night. This kit is very nicely designed and engineered. The cab parts - roof, hood striker panel, and behind-grille panel - clicked together like Legos. And thanks to Chip Foose, "the look" is just right. I love this kit.
  18. The original tool has shape issues with hood curvature, rear fenders, front fender tops, etc. To my eyes. Your mileage may vary.
  19. I would think this goes back to factory promos. Mold it in color, chrome bumpers & hubcaps, black tires, assemble.
  20. Thanks. Looking forward to your initial thoughts and build review!
  21. Awesome 4x4, Chuck! I love it. Really nice build.
  22. They'll sell a ton of these. It looks great right out of the box and sits perfect. Beautiful truck. I need 3-4 of these...
  23. Same here (Albany, NY) yesterday . I saw your update, though. I'll check mine again tomorrow.
  24. Another upvote for Hiroboy. I've placed a couple of orders in the past month and, being in NY, had my items within 6 - 13 days. Great products, better service!
