Bring Out Your Dead... Long Stalled Models
Ron Hamilton replied to Tom Geiger's topic in WIP: Model Cars
I have a 64 Cutlass hardtop and convertible to restore. The convertible was originally built as a race car, so I have to source a windshield frame and glass for it. I would love to see this one finished Bill. -
Oooh! I have both the hardtop and convertible kits to build. I only wish that it was a 62, as Dad had one.
-
I loved this one.

Revell 1968 Chevy Chevelle SS 396...........My take
Ron Hamilton replied to MrObsessive's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
I appreciate the comment. I'm working on one right now. I'm planning on adding a vinyl roof. There's one for sale locally to me that is drop dead gorgeous. I'm going to base my build on that car. It will be a while because I cannot paint until warms up outside. I have everything else I need to do the model. In the mean time, I have a 69 I built several years ago that needs a refresh. It's too nice to scrap. -
We had both in the family. I happen to like both cars. At the present time, I have a 65 AMT annual convertible on the bench.

Revell 1968 Chevy Chevelle SS 396...........My take
Ron Hamilton replied to MrObsessive's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
That's a nice build. I only hope that mine comes out half as good. -
I am lucky that I didn't sell off my unbuilt annual hardtop and Converible. I really like 64 Ford's.
-
I love it! I have to save my pennies to get one of those when it is available.
-
We talked about that one when we met. You know I love it.
-
That looks fantastic! I may have to get one of those to add to my Cadillac collection.
-
I really love that one. I have an unbuilt Johan 69 Coupe de Ville that I would like to do in either Chateau Mauve or Wisteria, with a White Vinyl roof and interior trimmed in dark mauve. The 69 Cadillac Brochure I have is a treasure trove of detail pictures.

1965 Dodge Coronet 500 by Polar Lights
Ron Hamilton replied to JayC's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Only a Revell 55 Chevy convertible. I finally got a flat rear bumper for it, as I do not like the continental kit. -
Fantastic work!

1965 Dodge Coronet 500 by Polar Lights
Ron Hamilton replied to JayC's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
I have a boat load of projects to get done. I paint outside, and this past year was not very good weather wise in my area. I have plenty of paint, glue, supplies, kits, rebuilders, resin, ideas, and motivation. I appreciate the offer, but right now I cannot participate in the build off. Thanks for thinking of me. -
1965 Dodge Coronet 500 by Polar Lights
Ron Hamilton replied to JayC's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
I have several of them in hardtop and convertible form. I have yet to build any of them. I did strip the paint off of the pearl white one, and started on it. I will probably do it in dark blue metallic, with a white vinyl top and interior. There was a guy in my neighborhood with one in that color combination. It was the first car I saw with Cragar S/S wheels on it. I also have a Perry's Resin 65 that I transplanted a Lindburg 64 chassis and running gear under. One of these days I'll finish something. -
Certainly. If I sell one of them, I'll think of you.

Pictures from last nights LIARS Club 01/17/2019
Ron Hamilton replied to Superbird McMonte's topic in Model Cars
Nice builds. When I was a kid, I picked up a 1/20 scale 68 AMX from the local Rambler dealership, which happened to be 2 blocks from my elementary school. When RC2 re- released the 70 AMX, I picked one up. I was also able to pick up a couple of restorable 68 and 69 1/20 AMX models. I would like to rework the 70 to be true to the actual car, but that would be a tall order. At least I was able to pick up enough parts to build a somewhat accurate 1/25 scale 69 AMX. One of my Jr. High school teachers had a red on red 68 AMX that I will probably do mine as. -
Sweet! I have 2 Johan 61's to finish.

Here's a '70 Mercury Colony Park Modelhaus
Ron Hamilton replied to Paul Hettick's topic in Model Cars
Beautiful. -
Paul, The resin kit was from F & F Resin. I remember it because I almost bought one at an NNL from Ed Fluck, who did the original master. Your build is gorgeous, as usual.

1960 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz
Ron Hamilton replied to Jeffcad's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
That is gorgeous. I built one of those myself. I crafted a 60 interior for mine. -
Revell 1968 Chevy Chevelle SS 396...........My take
Ron Hamilton replied to MrObsessive's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Why yes they will Dave. -
I have yet to get my 69 Boss 302, but I have a DMould 69 conversion kit on a Mach1, which looks pretty good. I also have a 70 AMT Blue Crescent to fix up, which I do not consider to be better than my Revell 70.
