  1. The WWII jeep has the Goodyear Suburbans, but I'd recommend the Fireball resin snow tires.
  2. Some good choices here. Here's mine: P40 B25 F4 Phantom F86 Super Constellation Bonus pick-- Beech Bonanza V-tail
  3. I've seen this one in person at a Goodguys meet. It was incredibly detailed.
  4. I don't know about the Kart, but the engines are definitely McCullochs. McC did build Karts as well.
  5. Pretty much nailed the paint match on the Highland Green!
  6. Yanno, one could make a pretty nice collection with just Colonnade coupes. Buick GS, Pontiac GTO, Grand Am, and Can Am, Olds 442, and Chevy Chevelle SS, and Laguna S-3, and Monte Carlo. Great work on this GS.
  7. Eric, to even own a car that would qualify for the same class as a V-16 Caddy would be a high privilege. What was it?
  8. Wacky Races...now there is an emotional buy right there. Glad I am not the only one who had a crush on Penelope Pitstop!
  9. Looking at those, it makes me wonder if the casting was originally for aircraft, and the "reversed" side would actually be the outside face in an aircraft application....?
  10. Joie Chitwood thrill show. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xhmPectY9U
  11. Don't forget the "New Monkees" Mustang GT convertible and the ZR1 Corvette variants.
  12. Well, considering Ford didn't come out with the Galaxie until '1959, there's that. As to the topic, I don't get the buzz either. The '69 Coronet grille and taillight panel are much more attractive, especially the R/T and 500 models. Now a '68 Sport Satellite, or GTX.... ;-)
  13. Nice craftsmanship, but that has to be the ugliest Bug I've ever seen. GO BIG BLUE!!!! ;-)
  14. Great build! The kit issues with the inaccurate grille are really evident in these pics. Craftsmanship for an OOB build is exceptional.
  15. Has anyone ever done one of these as a stock Oldsmobile? Great work on the Hillbillies version. I really like Granny's rocking chair!
  16. Actually, the 57 Ranch Wagon would be most accurate. The Skyliners were built on the station wagon/Ranchero frame. That's why the fuel filler is on the left rear fender, instead of above the license plate like the standard cars were.
  17. 69 Super Bee with the Ramcharger hood and optional side scoops in Hemi orange. Second place is a 72 GTX in black with the Air Grabber hood. Both with 4 speeds, of course.
  18. My favorite would be calendar year 1969, which included both '69 and '70 model years. However, there could be a strong case made for 1957: Fuel injected Chevies and Pontiacs, Cadillac Brougham and Eldorado Biarritz, Olds J-2, Supercharged Fords, Fairlane 500 retractables, Chrysler 300C.
  19. With the 440 car, why not make it a "Phantom" A12 car with open steelies, and a lift off 'glass hood?
