    That looks amazing. Wish someone would redo this kit.

    Looks great.

    Finally, just went on and completed my model.

    Just completed my 1964 Dodge altred and driven by Dick Landy. Stock Amt kit, modified body for the altred wheelbase, used a straight axle and leaf springs from a Dodge A-100 pickup kit. Tamiya paints and Slixx decals. The front track width could have been a little wider.

    Thanks. I never really thought about Yellow either, but I went looking for ideas and came across this picture and it hit.

    I am looking for a set of these wheels for a ProStock that I am gathering parts. Does anyone have a source for these wheels?

    Just completed my Revell 1949 Mercury Custom. This is the 2nd one of these I have built plus I built the Wagon a few years ago. Painted with Tamiya Pearl Yellow with Testors Leather interior. Wanted to try and get an old school look. Used a set of Pegasus Chrome Reverse rims and white walls. I found a set of lake pipes from the prior one I built.

    I know 1 of the fastback Nova has survived. I have seen it. It's very rough but it's still around.

    Beautiful build. I just seen on Rick Dore's Facebook page that he lost some pictures of thus car and was wondering if anyone had high resolution pics of the car. Seems like you might be the man to help out.

    My father, who doesn't have a computer, keeps asking about any news on these. Does anyone have any updates?

    Thanks Paul. I sprayed it with Tamiya Bright Mica Red

    I seem to have misplaced my seat cushion for the rumble seat for my AMT 1936 Ford 3 Window. Looks like it would be part #44. Would anyone have an extra that they would be willing to part with? Would love to be able to finish this with a working rumble seat.

    Looking great! That is an awesome kit. Wish they would bring it back out. Nothing like a bright Red 57 Bel Air. The one I built using the stock kit based off similar tooling as the street machine

    I just purchased the AMT Charger Pursuit kit and would like to build a custom cruiser from my local police department. Have not been able to find decals for this. Would anyone be able to create and print this for me and at what cost?

    Looking great Mark. Alot of scratch building going into this one.

    Just put a wrap on my 1981 Championship winning Buick as driven by Darrell Waltrip. Old Monogram kit with Salvino JR Models decals. Airbrushed the Tamiya White, applied decals and added a coat of Future Floor Gloss. Did my usual exhaust modification by cutting the kit pipes and added aluminum tubing.

    Will need to get multiples of each for my stash

    Original Monogram Folgers kit. Powerslide decals, Model Master Flame Red Lacquer inside and out. Often wonder wonder how the Nascar history books would look had Tim not died.

    Wheels are Pegasus. Tires are from AMT 39 WagonRod

    Has anyone ever made the grille for the AMT 1950 Chevy 3100 to convert it to the 1954 model year?

    I built 2 of them years ago. I need to get them out and clean them up some. I did the Thunderbolt chassis, shortened a little with a resin hood. I believe I had gotten my wheels from Reliable Resin but, we won't go there. I built the early white car and then the later dual snorkel hood car. I will be following your build with great interest. I think these were some of Ronnie's best-looking cars. Just something about the Comet shape.

    This is the new color Tamiya Pearl Light Blue TS-58 with Tamiya Clear. I cleared the prior Blue but it changed the color somewhat and I didn't like it. Not to mention, it didn't have any shine to it. I even tried the Future Floor Gloss but that didn't give it much shine either.

    Whatever I tried, I just could not get the paint to look right. Scuffed and reshot the body. No pictures yet but coming soon.

    My cousin still has his Grandfather's 1967 Delta 88 Convertible that I believe he bought new. It is Tahoe Turquoise with Black interior and convertible top.
