  1. Steve, Your resurrection is excellent. I have an old restoration project to do, which was an old '63 Falcon Convertible. I added a set of Modelhaus '64 Falcon Wire Wheel Covers. It's in primer, and is ready for paint and re-assembly. Now I have to find a '63 Ford Color to paint it.
  2. Very nice!!!!
  3. Very nice restoration work on this one.
  4. Another winner!!!! Don't get mad at me Steve, but I may have to do a copy of that one, in a different color. I love it!!!!
  5. You are so lucky to start with that. This is what I started with. It is as rough as it looks. It has been cleaned, disassembled and primed, and I have a Torino kit to combine it with.
  6. Hmmm. I have this... , which is a clean unpainted built-up, that I am going to combine with the Replicas and Miniatures "Chevy 6", as the car had no engine. Or else, I can do the one I built several years ago, Which is a F&F resin piece, in which I installed a 327 V8/4-speed combo with Halibrands and Blue Streaks from the Revell 32 Highboy. I have a trailer, as well as a '65 Nova "Rat Packer" kit I could team it up with, or I could team it up with a "Boss Nova" wagon. Thanks Greg for posting this.
  7. Very Nice!!!!!
  8. The lower mouldings as kitted were only available from the factory on a Rally Sport equipped '67 Camaro. Aside from the grille, the tail lamps, as well as the parking and back-up lamps were different, and would have to be done for the kit top be accurate.
  9. If you are looking for a set with the same offsets for the front and the rear, the ones in the Revell '67 Charger (Original kit, not the Foose Version) are tough to beat.
  10. I Like that one!!!!!!!
  11. Nice!!!!
  12. Steve, A lot of folks do not realize the amount of work you put into that one. I can honestly say that it came out georgeous!!!!!! Happy Holidays if you do not hear from me sooner. Ron
  13. I am speechless! Excellent work on everything I see here.
  14. That is some great detail work on the interior, and those mirrors are great!!!! I still have a convertible kit to build in a few years I guess.
  15. I buy and sell on Ebay quite a bit, and I include shipping on all of my sales. I let the market dictate the price of the item, as I price my items according to what others are selling for, and my customers are generally happy with their purchases. I did have an instance where a fellow wanted to buy a resin Transkit from me. He got quite indignant with me when I explained to him that the cost of a resin transkit was far greater than the cost of a comparable styrene kit, or die cast of the same item, and to add insult to injury, I was offering the kit for less than the manufacturer was offering it on their website. I steered him to that website and suggested that he buy from them. Never the less, I sold the transkit for more than the beginning bid anyway. I would have rather kept the kit, but I have one of the diecasts, and I knew that I would not build it in the near future. All I can say is if you feel a price for that kit or part is to high, just go find one that is in your price range, if there is one out there.
  16. I take my hat off to the seller for offering such a nice piece, and to the buyer for having the guts and the money for making such a bid. I cannot see myself spending that kind of money for a model, as I would rather build my own.
  17. A friend of mine cast some Time Machine Malibu Bodies years ago. I bought a few "Rat packers, one to give me the chrome for an F&F Resin '65 Nova Trans kit, and the other to build as a period racer. This info is very helpful for a future build of Malcom Durham's car.
  18. Niiiice!!!!
  19. I like it!!!!!
  20. From the start you have on that one, I would finish it. You are turning that thing into a work of art.
  21. That's a fine looking 'Cuda.
