  1. I started on mine last week. My full review will come soon.
  2. Thanks for bringing back my childhood memories of this kit. I remember the "Styleline" custom parts, and used them on my build in the mid '60's. I really like '57 Fords, and I have built a few over the years, even though I have never built one as a "Factory Stock" car. Maybe one day I will.
  3. I have one of these started, but never goy further than gluing the body panels together. I have seen several built, and if you take your time, it should come out fine. I need to get back on mine, as I have decided on the color combination.
  4. That build is magnificent!!!!!
  5. Nice project. I plan on doing a base Impala Coupe myself, but mine will be Triple Black, with a Big Block, and a 4-speed, with A/C. I have what I need to build it, except time. I have 3 '67's built in my collection, and a couple more will be sweet. I can't wait to see it done.
  6. It's a '79, and it looks great!!!!!!
  7. That's pretty!!!!
  8. You're welcome Steve. I have a soft spot for Dodge Chargers, as they were one of my favorite cars from the '60's and '70's. I have built the '67 Revell, and 2 '71 AMT newer tools, and several more to build. I really like what you are doing with that one.
  9. Those two are very nice !!!!
  10. I like it the way it sits, but those wheels need a little detailing.. The Cragar S/S wheels will work too. The AMT '65 Ford Galaxie, and the '65 Pontiac G/P has an excellent set of 15 x 7 Cragars, which will look great on the car with a set of AMT White Lettered Polyglas GT tires.
  11. Excellent work !!!!!
  12. I picked up the full glue kit today, and Tim Boyd's review is right on point. I am very impressed, but I will go over the kit, and write a review on it. I may even build it. After I picked up the kit, I took pictures of a new one on the dealer's lot to get some detail shots.
  13. That is very nice work. I have a few of the Polar Lights' '65 Coronet 500's in the stash. I started on one that was pearl white. I stripped the paint from it, and put it back in the box, as I do not know what color to paint it. Now that I have a '65 Satellite started, I have to find it, as I may do a set of bookend models. With a little patience and skill, they can be made to look quite nice.
  14. One thing I can say for Paul is that he "sweats the details". Not only are his modeling subjects unique, they are excellently painted and detailed. They represent the subject matter better than most models I have seen. The building is first rate, and are a relative bargain for the time spent on the work. I take my hat off to him.
  15. Bill, I would stack your builds with ANYONE!!!! Paul's work is very nice too.
  16. Nice work on your model, but I just cannot deal with the funky "Camper Special" wheelbase and right side wheelhouse. I recently got a Mobeius F100 long bed, which I plan to use as a pattern to adjust the wheelbase to a standard 8 foot bed truck for my 1976 F350 Ranger XLT Project. I have cleaned it up, raised the windshield mouldings, and removed the glue smears. I hope to get some further work done to it soon. While it is not as nice as the Mobieus, it is still a quite nice kit. I have a '78 like yours, which will stay as a :Camper Special, as I am going to put a 5th Wheel hitch on it for my Galaxie Trailer.
  17. I love it!!!!!!
  18. Va Va Va Voom!!!!!!!!
  19. I just got one of those from a friend (Thanks Mike!) to re-build. I plan to take mine to a Replica Stock Build too. I only hope that mine looks half as good as yours. which is down right gorgeous!!!!.
  20. I spent a great portion of last week watching "Graveyard Carz" on cable, and this build reminds me of the fine work they do! Beautiful Build!!!!
  21. WOW!!!!
