  1. Marcos, That one is fantastic. I picked up two of them, and a slew of Resin for a stocker, and a personalized one of the truck in the same color family. I got to back to work on mine!
  2. Abbra Cadabbra! You are such a magician!!!!
  3. Would you want that thing representing you? Satire!
  4. That came out pretty nice. I have not gotten my kit yet, but I do have a can of Panther Pink paint.
  5. I cannot wait to see how you work out the fender vents. I love it!
  6. I've seen resin shrink. I would see if they would replace the shrunken parts. I take my hat off to you for that build. It should come out beautiful !!!
  7. I cannot afford it. I tried to buy several of them, but the price is out of my reach.
  8. My mom had a gold '80 Monte Carlo Landau, which I kept a kit to do the car. I liked that series of Monte Carlo, having a couple for demos.
  9. I like that!!!!!
  10. Go get 'em Mike!!!!
  11. While that would be a good idea, most modelers would want to put it in the superior Revell body. I am going to get another one, as I have a MPC '73 annual that I am going to cut up and combine with a Revell body. It's a glue bomb that I have where I would like to do a base Barracuda coupe with white wall tires and full wheel covers, which I just got from Missing Link Resin. I have a not too bad Sox and Martin JoHan '71 that I am going to restore. It's all there, but I want to replace the carbs with a set of Fireball Dominators in lieu of the kit parts.
  12. I may have to do one like that to bookend with my '71 Hemi Charger R/T. That is one cool car.
  13. J.C. It would be a good idea.we will also need the tail lamps and bezels and the front Valance. Ron
  14. The hide has been beat off of the horse here on this topic. My dealings has been a mixed bag.
  15. I've only seen one of these built decently other than the one in this picture. I have one from a long time ago. I have a Barris Book with the original car in it, as well as I saw the movie with the one-to-one in it. The trailer looks to be the same one that is in the '64 Corvette Roadster, and is good for just about any sports car.
  16. Absolutely Beautiful Marcos.
  17. good luck painting it!!!!
  18. On the subject of the aforementioned Hubcaps and Trim Rings. The caps used on the '72-76 Torino series with the trim rings were similar to the ones pictured, but with a flat black center with the Ford crest. My uncle's '72 Ranchero had those caps. Missing Link resin just released a set of Flat caps with a set of deeper trim rings, but no Ford Motor Company lettering in the center. I just got a set of them to do a certain '71 Mach1. I already had a Narrow set for a '71 Maverick Grabber I want to do. Personally, I would have liked to see Revell include the Magmum 500 wheels from the '70 Torino GT/Cobra Kit. That is what I am going to use on my '76., and that is one ugly box.
  19. When I fixed up an original '78 Re-builder that did not have a front suspension, I used the lowered front suspension from the Revell '72 Cutlass kit. It worked out pretty well.
  20. Welcome to the board!!!! I am in awe of your work on this model. Excellent !!!!
  21. That looks ferocious!!!
  22. I built the original Revell '57 Nomad back in the '60's when I was a teenager, but there was no way that I would touch one of the Monogram Nomad kits due to the proportions of the body. There is a nice resin transkit of a '57 Nomad from Model Car World available if I get the urge, but I believe that Revell will introduce the kit before I get it built. I have a Franken-Resin '68 and '70 Charger to prove the point.
  23. The looks pretty good Rob. Thanks for showing us the kit contents I my bedroom, I have an excellent Hemming's Muscle Machine article and photos of a Triple Black, with the White Bumble Bee '70 Hemi Charger R/T. I plan to pilfer the Rally Wheels from Revell Hemi Cuda, and a set of AMT Pad- printed Polyglas GT White Lettered Tires. This will bookend with the '68 Charger R/T from "Bullitt" that I want to do. I bought a set of wheelcovers from Fireball Modelworks to do the project. I cannot wait!!!!!!
