62SS

Glad to see you stuck with it Billy, It turned out great in spite of all the problems you had. Nice job. I really like it!!! Ed

This is the Polar Lights "snap" kit. I filled all the holes and painted it Tamiya clear orange acrylic over silver. This was the First time that I painted a model with my airbrush. Ive opened the hood and added the 409 from the AMT 64 Impala kit.I know the blower looks too small but this is a big car. The firewall and radiator support are from my parts box, As are the wheels and tires and other odds and ends.(Gotta love the parts box!!) I also used a prewired distributor, Flocking, And lots of BMF. It was a fun build and I think it turned out OK. Comments always welcome. Thanks for looking. Ed

I would say before the first hot laps, Its not even muddy yet. Ours never looked this good after it had been ran. Ive seen a lot of these meet their demise at the local dirt tracks over the years. Nice build Slim, great looking model. Ed

Sweet lookin streetrod Outlaw, But your garage is waaaay too clean. HA. HA! Im sure your replica will look just as nice. Keep up the good work and keep the progress pics coming. Ed

Just thought Id show some pics of my 62SS now that I figured out photobucket. This is the day I got it about 14 years ago. Its ugly, but not a lot of rust. This is in the late 90s before I got serious about restoring it. This is when I first put it back on the road after about 6 years in my garage. Last year at a car show with my buddy and his 68 Javelin. Thanks for looking. Ed

Cool idea. Very nicely done. great job. Ed

Thanks everyone for all the kind words. Glad you liked it. Ed

Looks like its coming along good Clay. Thanks for the tip on the driveshaft. Keep up the good work. Ed

Heres a pic of the bottom Slim. Nothing special just paint detail. Thanks for Looking. Ed

This my favorite year Impala and your build is beautiful. It reminds me a lot of my 1:1 62SS(except mines a hardtop.)Even the color is the same. Needless to say, I love this car. great job. Ed

Congratulations and best of luck to you and your new Mrs. Hope you have many, Many happy years together. Ed ;)

Super clean Cobra. Looks great. Very nice job, Ed

I never throw model boxes away. A few years ago, I was lucky enough to buy some old built up models at an estate sale. They were all from the late 50s thru late 60s, SMPs, AMTs, MPCs, Etc... The built cars were all put back into their original boxes with all of the unused parts, Instructions, And decals. I thought that was really cool, Kinda like a time capsule. Since then, I display my builts till I need more room, Then I put them back in the box, And store them in my model room closet. This also keeps them from getting broken. If any parts fall off, They are right there in the box to be reattached. Also I never throw models away. Even old flea market glue bombs or cars with missing parts can be used as parts for other builds. Ed

I really like this one Slim. Lets get some numbers on er and go racin!!!!

nice build Slim. Looks great.

This is just too cool. What a perfect combo. I think I may have built that van when it first released a loooooooong time ago. Id love to build another one. Oh well maybe someday.... Ed

Model King issue. Its a curbside so It was a pretty quick build. The only add-ons are, BMF, Flocking, and whitewalls.I just thought it was a neat car that you dont see very often. Comments welcome, Thanks for looking. Ed

Thats a battle I wouldnt even attempt. Decals are NOT my friend. Nice job on the car Brendan. It looks great and your attention to detail is fantastic.

]Happy birthday Mr. Biggs!!! Hope you get all the models you want.(So we can see how you build em.) Have a great day. Ed

Nice car Daniel. I really like it in red. Where did you get the dog dish hubcaps? Yeah, No plates on mine, But I dont think they could catch me anyway. HA !!! There were some fit issues with it, But overall Im happy with how it turned out. Thanks for the nice comments.Ed

Hi Slim. Welcome aboard. I hope you enjoy your time here as much as I do. This place is the best. Ed

Awesome news George!! I cant wait to see pics of it. Theres nothing better than an old Mopar. Hope you enjoy it. Ed

Hey Will, Its nice to see you finally posting here. This is a great board with lots of talented builders. Stick around for awhile and enjoy. If you have any questions just ask, Im sure someone here will know the answer. Posting pics is pretty easy, Ill show you how this weekend.

It does seem a little slow. I thought maybe it was my computer. Ed

Great looking Dart. Looks fast just sittin still. Nice job. Ed
