  1. Brings back memories. I had quite a few of that generation Camaro for Company Demonstrators, and a 1991 Convertible for a personal car.
  2. Raggedy!!!! Excellent work!!!!
  3. Very Interesting!!!! I like that one!!!!
  4. I can hear the slantie purring away. Very Nice!!!!!
  5. Incredible. I can't wait for the finished model.
  6. I just Bare Metal foil over the scripts before paint, and after polishing when there is not a photoetch set for a kit. However, I prefer photoetch scripts. And yes, I like Lincoln Continentals, as this bohemoth is the next one in line to be restored.
  7. Excellent!!!!!!
  8. I am so happy that this one has been extended. I have made significant progress on the '66 Rambler. I filled in the hole in the hood, and worked the body as good as it is going to be. About a month ago, I was surfing through Ebay, and there was an auction of some '66 Rambler American Parts, including an unpainted hood and trunk lid, a complete 232 6, the entire interior, including the stock console, but I believe that they are from a '64 or '65. It was not cheap, but it got me to the point where I can do some painting. I was even able to get a set of wheel covers from a derelict '67 Ambassador, which is correct for the '66 American. And yes, I did do the Ambassador. As I bought it. Finis!!! I will be quite happy if the American can come out half as good.
  9. Very nice!!!! You can never have enough '57 Fords. So many different automotive subjects to choose from.
  10. Hocus! Pocus! Another beauty from the bench.
  11. Oh yes! I remember them well, and you are hitting it pretty good.
  12. Those '72's are not cheap at all. Here's the one I have. It's a little ratty, but since this picture was taken, I have a better chassis and drivetrain for it. All it needs is a front seat (Modelhaus), and it has been cleaned up for fit. I may install a set of skirts, like I did on this '71 which was in far worse shape. I am leaning towards Light Green Metallic with a Dark Green Vinyl Roof and Interior.
  13. Mark, Your workmanship on this one is first rate. To me the roof you are using looks like a sedan doof with the pillars removed, instead of the hardtop roof. The best '59-'60 GM hardtop roof out ther is from the Revell '60 Chevrolet Impala. I plan to transplant one of them onto a Trumpeter Pontiac Bonneville 2-Door Hardtop, as their roof is far from accurate.
  14. I love those cars. I plan to do the same car for our club's theme. I have both the AMT and MPC Mustangs, as well as a copy of "Diamonds are Forever". That is one classy build.
  15. Glue-bombs r Us. I did the same model about 20 years ago. I know yours will look great, Al.
  16. That is a great model. I would love to see someone do one of these as a Replica Stock '67 or '68.
  17. Ronald, I have the same model in my collection. It has been sitting in my basement for over 25 years, unfinished, as I have not decided on a color combination, Seeing yours is an inspiration. I look forward to its completion. Good luck.
  18. My Dad had a Meteor 4-Door Hardtop in the same color in the laate '60's as a 2nd car, Beautiful build.
  19. I am going to start my own thread on this one, as not to hijack Rich. That Dodge is so cool. I think about "Highway Patrol" every time I see one of his builds. That show had the coolest '50's cars.
