Huh... I always thought it meant "Move Over, People Are Racing"!

Never mind that- I never understood how a junky old Mopar could put up with as much abuse as that car saw.

I only paid about $20 for mine, please don't tell me the MSRP on this thing is up there with the Falcon!

Yeah, forgot those photoetched hinges... the ones that snapped at the fold line if you so much as thought of bending them. I just made the hood lift off on mine. Trunk hinges are okay, but they're plastic. I know the AMT 421 will fit... IF you leave off the air cleaner and IF you do quite a bit of trimming and grinding on the crossmember. (Mine has the hood scoop to gain enough clearance over the dual quads... with no filters...) Haven't tried the Revell engine in one yet, or any Pontiac mills robbed from a car kit, but the Trumpeter trans will mate right up to the AMT engine block if I recall correctly.

I've had no trouble posting off Fotki. Not sure who's using what photo hosting site, but I have been seeing a few 'red x' images. Not sure if that's due to the forum change or if the user moved their photos from the URL they were originally posted.

I'll drink to that! Great stuff, guys! Not a single clunker in the bunch! (I'll change that right now! ) Here's the opposite of the 'typical' street rod... it's a '32 Chevy with a small block Ford engine ! Couple more '32 Chevys, one a converted coupe, both MOPAR POWERED!!!! A '21 Olds Coupe (Beverly Hillbillies kit with a scratchbuilt roof, and an Olds 215 aluminum V8) And an AMT Deuce 5-window, with it's crude small block Chevy converted into an equally crude Ford Y-Block.

Ah, you're from the Canadian Soo? That's the only part of Canada I've ever visited.

I've heard it has a weird windshield, but I might be thinking of the Nova kit.

Well, you've mastered the dents... now it's onto the rust. Then you'll be ready to built that Rat Rod you keep on saying you'll build.

Love where this is going! The body damage and general 'gunkyness' is spot-on. You can make a good model out of this thing, but yeah, it's a challenge sometimes! I managed to make something decent out of one... Yeah, you can see I did take a few liberties!

Might jump in with my Ford Talladega, if I still have the thing laying around.

Ink? Isn't that a step backwards for a forum?

Cool! Thanks for the info, guys.

But sadly, now containing 30% more MSG...

My ninja mask used to cover the unibrow, but somebody stole it... (NOTE: "It" being the mask, not the unibrow.)

Room enough for a Chevy big block, though, in the AMT kit. That was one of my first major kitbash project, about twelve or thirteen years ago. Never finished that one, but the blown 427 from a Revell Corvette ('68, maybe?) WILL fit!

Ah, one of the reasons I'm content with my 'substitute teacher' status at the mag!

Flip the last M in MCM over, and you get MCW, Model Car World, purveyors of fine scale automotive paints and resin kits. Oh, and to fans of the movie Pulp Fiction, BMF stands for something else entirely!

The COE Transtar has been on my wish list for a long time, this one is a beauty! Looks just like the ones used as farm rigs here in central Michigan. You'll see these things out and about all over the place in the fall hauling off crops.

Now that you mention it... yeah, it would!

Now, it's onto Phase 2- ?????, and finally, phase 3- profit!

Man, I'd love to have that Transtar COE!

This will be awesome!

No, I have exactly 80% less unibrow.

Didn't even know this kit existed until now, and now I want one!
