  1. That one is drop dead gorgeous!!!!
  2. I like that! I have two unbuilt 69 Cadillacs, one a Promolite Resin (absolutely beautiful) and a JoHan kit. The Promolite resin kit came with a boot. A friend of mine had a Black one with a Red Interior that is almost as pretty as the one you built.
  3. I mocked mine up, but I have a few more things to do to it. I want to add a vinyl roof. Your build is an inspiration.
  4. Wow!!!
  5. Who could ask for anything more? Beautiful work!
  6. A friend of mine was working on a 60 wagon where he combined the AMT kit chassis and powertrain and made the wood framing to do it as a Country Squire. I built mine as a Country Squire making the framing and using pins as the studs, along with the kit roof rack. Your model looks promising. Do what you feel is right.
  7. I have a boatload of AMT and Revell 63 Chevrolets including an annual hardtop rebuilder, which is very clean and unpainted, but has a set of kustom tail lamps welded in where I cannot remove them, and a convertible conversion that I did that I once considered scrapping. I have recently decided to strip it and clean it up to see where I would be on it. The scripts on that one are unusually crisp, and I used the chassis and running gear from the AMT 62 Bel Air. I love 61-61 Chevies, and I have quite a few kits in the stash to build.
  8. Beautiful.
  9. Uh, no. I want to do the Jeep Gladiator from the 60's. Same basic truck as the Revell Jeep Honcho kit.
  10. Makes pretty good sense to me. The AMC 327 v8 was a pretty good engine for this application.
  11. The mid sixties Jeep Wagoneer and Gladiators had the option of a 327 Chevrolet V8. I may have to get one of these kits for a future project.
  12. I like where this one is going.
  13. Now that's an idea. I bought a Jeep Honcho kit last year. I really want to make a Gladiator out of it. Hmmmm. It shouldn't be too hard.
  14. I love it!
  15. Gorgeous!
  16. I like where you are going with this project. I have something similar going with a dilapidated 70. I fixed all of the problems with it, and now its in primer. I have seen a couple of interesting Cyclone GTs on the web, and I have both the Cyclone Spoiler decals and the Cyclone Photoetch. A Revell 70 Torino will give me the basic engine, while I will use a C6 from the model. These cars are quite interesting. I can't wait to see how yours come out.
  17. Last week I picked up an unbuilt 69 going to make a big difference. Barracuda, and a couple of days ago I ordered a 69 Barracuda grille from you. I have to decide what I am going to do with the kit. I think that grille is going to make a big difference in the build.
  18. I like that one.
  19. Very nice. I really love those cars.
  20. Be very careful with that one. Johan plastic is very brittle. I have an unbuilt AMT ( Johan), and an MPC 67 Toronado to build. In my research, I found photos of a gorgeous turquoise car. That's the one I'm going to do.
