  1. Bill, Norm's set did include the egg grate for the grille. I may have a set in my stash. Let me know if you need it. Ron
  2. That one is very believable. Nice job on the spare mount and fender.
  3. You did a great job on that one. I want to build something close to replica stock with my circa 1963 kit. I have one of the red ones in my stah somewhere, and I can say, nothing fit well. My hat is off to you for how yours turned out. I love that truck.
  4. Good Luck on that one Tommy. If I had one, that would be one I would like to do. If I am not mistaken, Keith Sorci did a '66 Polara wagon a few years back. Paul Hettick sold one on Ebay, and got a nice sum for it.
  5. WOW!!!!!
  6. Very Nice!!!
  7. I took care of the firewall with some sheet plastic when I lined everything up. I have to prime the interior, the chassis, and engine compartment, then it is ready for paint. It's a little cold for that right now. In the next few days, I am going to detail the front and rear grilles, as well as the wheel covers.
  8. Very Nice Al!!
  9. Man that looks familiar!!!! I like the vinyl roof!!!!
  10. For 2016, I have decided to finish some of my many still-born projects from the past few years, instead of starting on something new. I have quite a few of them to keep me going for at least a year or three. The first one I am going to tackle is a JoHan 1964 Plymouth Fury 2 Door Hardtop. I picked up a workable body from a friend at our model club meeting. I was able to clean up the glue-burns, and laid down a nice primer finish after I blocked the body, and added the fender separation lines. I got a set of bumpers, vacuum-formed glass, interior tub (bench seat), and hood ornament from The Modelhaus. The chassis, underhood area, and some suspension parts came from the AMT 1969 GTX, and the 426 Commando engine, Torqueflite Transmission, and 8 3/4 rear axle are from the AMT '71 Charger. The Full Wheelcovers and Tires are from the Lindberg '64 Plymouth Belvedere. As of today, I have tightened up the fit, and I am ready to lay down a paint job, using what I have. I have to look through my parts boxes for an air cleaner and valve covers.
  11. I like what I see. I have one of those to restore myself, as I am a nut for 1960 cars. Yours looks far better than mine when I got it. I have since cleaned up the body work. I am planning on Red, with a Red and Silver Interior.
  12. Great work!!!!
  13. Marvelous!!!!!
  14. WOW!!!!
  15. What Steve wrote. I suggest that you look at different pictures of the real car, and carefully copy it. I used sheet styrene, which I cut and bent untul I got the desired shape. I have to finish this one.
  16. I got a '64 Plymouth Promo Interior from the Modelhaus a couple of years ago for my '64 Fury Project. The correct full wheel covers are from the Lindberg '64 Belvedere kit, which I may do as a side by side build with this one.
  17. You nailed it Art!!!!
  18. Exquisite!!!!
  19. Very nice, and looks mighty familiar.
  20. I have been blessed will all the plastic I really wanted in the past, so nothing new this xmas. Those of you who received some new plastic, die cast, resin, or building supplies, congrats!
