  1. At least you didn't have to do much to make RHD. Dash was already included.
  2. I love this. Great color, thanks for staying away from red paint.
  3. Rather interesting grille work. I never would have thought of using Thunderbolt tail light trim for headlites. Nice work.
  4. The 66 and the 67 were my favorite Chargers.
  5. Cool little car. Drove one once.
  6. Awesome look with the silver cove.
  7. Nice yellow. Even though not a stock color, those cars got repainted back in the day in whatever color the owner wanted. It'll look great after it gets rubbed out and the detailing gets added.
  8. I think part of that error with the head lamp doors was the the first issue of that kit had operating doors that opened and shut. When they simplified the molding, thry got rid of that feature and the shape got wonky. There was no excuse for the louver situation.
  9. AMT (or MPC) had the 1/12th scale Cord. Decent kit but it had a few problems that needed corrected. The head light doors were the wrong shape and the top louver should have been on the hood as the Monogram kit had it. AMT decided to put all the louvers below the hood onto the body. Not to hard to correct but still not right. The oil pan also was missing the drain plug which is easy enough to replicate from scratch or using Trumpeter's nut and bolt set.
  10. Nice color.
  11. Looks sharp
  12. Expensive, but great stuff. You can strain it after using and reuse
  13. I'm impressed. Always liked the car.
  14. I have to say something about your 3D printed hood. It doesn't look right. The creases in the hood should angle wider towards the rear of the hood. Yours appears straight front to back. I'm sure this could be fixed with putty or sheet plastic. Look at the pic of the real car and compare. My grandpa had a new 69 Skylark and I owned a 69 Special coupe (same bodies) and am quite familiar with that car.
  15. This is awesome. You sent me down the rabbit hole where I had to read the entire build post. Great work trying to correct it's flaws. Awesome work. The figs remind me of Ricky and Lucy, or maybe Debbie Reynolds and Spencer Tracy from the movie with the red version.
  16. Think of the old style Vegas signs. Also other places like some Drive In diners of the day. It had a term. Being a sub set of MCM style, it was named Googie (goojee)
  17. Awe...freekin...some. Looks great the way you did the stiffening stamping.
  18. Looks like a fast car.
  19. Very nice work
  20. When I saw the rough mock up I though "Oh Gawd" , but after seeing the finished work I am kinda digging it. Turned out very well.
  21. Nicely done. I did not know it had a full frame.
  22. May I inquire as to the cost. You can message me if not allowed.
  23. Oh!! My mistake. They do look clear. After looking at your video, I can see the chrome. Those are great too.
  24. That looks awesome. I need to build mine.
  25. I like the clear seat backs
