Just love those cars. I have a couple in primer.

What is smash molding?

I love this body style Buick. The 68 to 69 was beautiful. I owned a 69 Special Deluxe (same body) and my grandfather had a Skylark Custom he bought brand new in 69. Very familiar with the car. The one thing I see from this print is the hood's character lines are going straight front to rear. They should angle slightly wider going to the rear of hood. I bought a 3D printed Skylark from Too Many Projects and it is very good.

Nice custom. You must have been scared by a Tucker when you were a child. LOL

Whoa!! I did not know he passed. When? I liked his builds and his unique way of writing. Loved the term "Snake fu" when speaking of mods he did.

Nice job on the GTX. I guess you could reverse a scan of the dashboard and 3D print an Aussie version with a right side driver position

Faster isn't a name they used in the US, LUV stood for Light Utility Vehicle and the Isuzu version was called Mikado or P'UP which stood for Pick Up -
My favorite body style of the Skylarks. My Grandfather had a 69 Skylark Custom new in a light green metallic, and I later owned a 69 Special Deluxe coupe in brown metallic with white top.

I like the "B" paint scheme. Is thgis more accurate than the old Johan kit?

Great rescue.

Sorry to hear this. Condolences to the members of the company and modelling community.

Nothing wrong with snappers. Great looking Vette.

I know Texas charges 16 bux for a state ID. In Wisconsin they are available at no cost. I love it here.

I had heard that was either Jiarus' or Gary Schmidt's mom. The original art had her in an all white suit but someone (don't remember who) thought it resembled underwear and Jairus added the polka dots

68 Buick Skylark GS 400 with a nod to Yellowsportwagon

Perry's was not as accurate as it could have been. 3D is the way to go. Your hood looks very close to correct as far as I can see. Some prints had a slight mis interpretation of the character lines from front to back. Yours look right. Have fun. -
I'll be in the garage today. I'll get that trim bit for the hood out for ya. Sorry it took so long.

I used to own the 1976 version. Hornet X V8 in Kermit the Frog green. It was a little beast.

They were beautiful cars in real life. I worked at a Pontiac dealer and we had those on the lot.
-
I had a real one. Ex City of Santa Barbara California detective's car. Was champagne color with vinyl top and a 401 V8.
-
I really like this car. Had a 66 Ford LTD four door hardtop years back in that color. Had the heavy die cast grille like the 7 litre.
-
I might have the trim piece for your hood bulge laying around.

Good idea for that kit.
