Here is the start of my 65 Satellite kit. Tamiya White Primer, Tamita TS-49 Bright Red and Model Master High Gloss lacquer clear. Interior is Model Master lacquer Italian Red and Flame Red with Tamiya Semi-Gloss Clear on the trim panels and Testors dullcote on carpet.

Been busy with work and 2 kids under 5. Not much progress at this time. Also got a little sidetracked with the new Moebius 65 Satelitte kit.

Seen where a Chevy SS will be out next year if all goes well with Fords. So maybe a Toyota will follow especially if Kyle wins the championship after missing the first 11 races.

I believe the funnel piece is molded in black plastic and the blue body is molded blue with red, yellow and black accents printed on. You should be able to take it apart carefully and detail paint it the way you want and put it back together with little to no problems. Good luck with your/sons trains. Keep us posted.

Got 2 yesterday. Can not wait to get to building them. I see a lot more of them in my future. Thank you Moebius.

Looking good

PM was sent. Hope you get it.

Jim, Just tried sending a pm to you but it said you can not receive message.?

According to Facebook, Slixx Decals is doing a new mini sheet for General Lee.

Here's a link to where I found pics online. It says "The engine is a work of art by itself that people never get enough of. It is a completely rebuilt Pontiac 455, it carries an Offenhauser 2x4 intake with Offenhauser cross rams with Northwest speed adapters to mount 2 Stromberg 97's on each end." http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/killer-1930-ford-street-rod-sweet-pea.943695/

After going to the 2015 National Street Rod East Show at the York, PA Fairgrounds and seeing this car, I decided to build a model similar. Although not exact, it's actually a 1930 Ford with a 1932 grille I believe. Real Car Pic off Internet Pic I took at show I started with 1 Revell 1932 Ford Sedan kit. I took the chrome reverse wheels out of an AMT 1936 Ford Kit, tires not sure what they came out of now and went to town. I got the body prepped for Tamiya White Primer, taped the roof insert and firewall up to keep it white. Then shot it with Tamiya Candy Lime Green and Tamiya Clear. I grabbed a can of Tamiya Pearl White for the interior then Tamiya Semi Gloss clear. Taped up to spray the carpet Tamiya Racing Green and Testors Dullcote for contrast. Engine will be the flathead out of Sedan kit painted White. Wheels Interior Chassis Body Quick Mock Up

Beautiful

Looks real nice. Love the color. I am currently working on one of these right now. Fenderless and Green.. Thanks for sharing.

Still trying to get the headers to look right. Might be getting close on them now. Got the body decaled and used a couple of photoetch Barracuda emblems from 1970 set and then cleared it.

Thanks Toni

Where did your tires come from? I have been looking for these for a little while now but haven't had to much time to look. Love the look of your model.

Looking good. Have items to do this build as well, just not enough time in a week with small kids around and work. Always enjoy seeing your work.

Has anyone built one of these? I have gotten to the point of attaching the doors but they do not with the door panels on them. To tight. My hood is warped some too. See thread in Workbench http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=103330

This has been in the works for over 5 years now. Painted with Tamiya Silver but do not recall which one it was. Has gone together great up until now. I have gotten to the point of attaching the doors but they do not with the door panels on them. The interior doors panels are to tight. I tried them prior to paint and them seem to fit but now some 5 years later they do not. My hood is warped some too. Has anyone else built one of these?

Simply beautiful.

Who makes the best 1/24 or 1/25 scale 427 Cobra kit? Revell? Fujimi?

Looks great. Love the looks of the car and the model. Awesome. Here's the wip for anyone that wants to see it. http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=49174

Bill, just seen your purchase of a Challenger. Congrats. I ordered an '09 B5 Blue Classic R/T Edition sight unseen when they started on taking orders. Got mine just before the shutdown at the end of April 09 and have been loving it since. After 6 years of payments it's all mine and I still get complaints of it, even from the Blue Oval guys and gals. I have just recently taking the resonators off the car to make it a little muscular sounding, although it changed to a deep tone it's not really what I was looking for but I like it. My next mod might be a pistol grip shifter. Yes it's automatic and yes they make them. http://www.mrnorms.com/new/Accessories/SHIFTERS.html#auto, Have fun with it, it's a great car.

Billy Gooche does decals for that Scat City Coronet. I have a set of them but, haven't gotten around to it yet. Here's an ebay listing for them if interested, http://www.ebay.com/itm/MPC-70-Coronet-Super-Bee-Funny-Car-Scat-City-/301637617210?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item463b00c63a

Bill, did you get the glass issue worked out? I just ran back thru this thread as I have a 59 Biscayne now and was looking at what you have done with the Impala. Looking great. I need to figure out what to do for windows for my Biscayne too. Would love to see this finished.
