When I bought my Mobieus 65 Comet Cyclone, I took the body out and looked it over and compared it to my original AMT 64 Comet Caliente. Since I noticed there were some differences, I decided to look at photos of 65 Comets on the internet. I decided that the AMT roof was more true to the car, but the Mobieus roof was not too far off. I did a little "bodywork on the sail panels, and the rear part of the roof, and it was fine. Also I adjusted the stance to my liking I'm going to be a customer for the Mobieus 64 Cyclone, as I will make adjustments where necessary.

The AMT 71 Charger R/T kits had a split bench seat with a center armrest. When I did my Hemi Charger model, I did it as a replica of an actual car that had Bucket Seats with the "buddy" seat/ center armrest. I reupholstered the AMT 71 Duster bucket seats and the AMT Dodge Charger kit back seat to match the factory pattern. I cut up the kit bench seat. and added sheet and half round styrene to make an accurate "Buddy Seat)

I've never seen one in a kit. I made one myself for my 71 Charger R/T Hemi.

I have an unbuilt 73 Charger in the collection. I never opened the bag thevparts are in.

Now I know that I wasn't crazy for buying a stock 74 Charger body for my used 74 Super Charger built-up I got from a good friend. Also, I bought a resin flat and domed hood, proper center cap rallye wheels, and Keith Marks Charger Rallye decals. I also have a mint in box 73 Charger kit. I'm tempted to re-do the guts, using the AMT 71 Charger R/T. I'm glad I bought some extra 71 Charger kits. I still have a 72 Rallye to resurrect.

I haven't picked up my kits yet, but I did get some grilles from Canuck 3D for my.projects. I sold a few of them as new and used cars when they were new. I even had a black and silver one for a demonstrator in 1981. I'm building a model of that, but I'm going to bring it to 2025.. I have several sers of 3D printed engines and wheels and tires. I'm so glad this kit is what it is.

I wish I lived near the store. My wife will be able to find me there.

Looks great so far. I love the concept.

My best friend sent me a black one. Gorgeous!

Mine came in the mail last week. I am very impressed.

He did a fine job on this one. I have several AMT 68 El Camino kits, including the last issue of the street machine. I plan to use some ZForce Modelworx wheels and a Texas 3D LS engine and Transmission.

Canuck 3D has the 98 up interior parts for the AMT 90s S10/Sonoma/Blazer trucks, as well as the grille/ headlamps for the same. I'd love to see a full detail 4 door Blazer/ Jimmy. I have several of those kits. They're very nice.

My wallet is safe this month, as I have unbuilt examples of each of the model cars I want.

Tom Coolidge was one of the best resin casters. His products were eclectic, but excellent. I have several of them, and I am a very happy customer.

I had planned to do the 68 Dodge Coronet to bookend with the Revell Dodge Charger, as I have a R&R Resin 68 Coronet R/T. But of course MPC reissued the kit. Oh well.
