  1. Well I think the Poll is done it is clear the Forums choice. So watch in the next couple days for the CBP Topic, and yes There will be rules that the vehicle must follow, unlimited as it may be you still have to have a semi level playing field. Nick
  2. Hmmm I do have a AMT '65 GTO......................I think that I finally want to try and do something with it. I'm in. Nick
  3. No body's holding a gun to your head and forcing you to look.
  4. Makes two of us Chuck. the IMSA Cavalier is a close second for me. Nick
  5. The '84 GMC has the exact same parts as the Fall Guy release, Difference is the color it is molded in and the Decal sheet, at one point I had both. Nick
  6. Thanks guys it really means a lot, you guys have been the ones to help and teach me, to be honest I forget how long I've been here but I do know that I've greatly improved. Thought I'd add a picture of my Toronto Metro cars together 40 years is quite a difference. Nick
  7. John, the rad was a necessity, the old 26 inch 3 core was good but after a while Andy was having issues with overheating on hot days, the aluminum rad was only $50 more than a aftermarket factory style rad but runs the Duster much cooler. Nick

  10. The odds of me finishing anything else this year is slim, but I never count myself out till the end. Had a busy year, and was able to achieve a few things on my bucket list ( Finally got the Chevy Truck I wanted since I was 3, and got the Classic car I wanted since I was 4 and went to my first car show). needless to say I'm a very happy camper this year. Also met a few people who are very close friends now, and got to chew the fat with them, that is always great, learned lots of life lessons (good and bad), you know the usual stuff. 2011 Total: 12 2012 Total: 14 (Started and finished this year:7, the rest I started last year or before) January: '58 Impala Coupe (3rd Place win at the Ajax 32 show) March:'40 Ford Coupe resto (original 60's build clean up) & '71 Barracuda 440 (started as a rough built up) May: Morris mini (bought from a modellers collection after he passed away and finished in his honor)
  11. Pictures are from October, I added quite a few since then. Nick
  12. This Duster below is a friend of mines, I highlighted the options it has that are on your list. It's mostly Original, it was bought and used as a drag car from day 1, Andy is the 3rd owner. and Yes he's currently doing the body. I apologize for the pictures, I was in a rush, we were taking the Duster out to play. Nick
  13. Thanks Guys, the Blue was a second thought and I ended up striping another paint job I had on it, I'm happy with how it turned out. Nick
  14. Thanks Guys the paint color is Duplicolor Blue Mist, and it was one of the older smaller cans. Sometimes our second thoughts are better than our first. Nick
  15. Got this one as a built up from my friend Pat Redmond. Ended up parts boxing a lot of things. Before After Nick
  16. Thanks Guys, Slight change of plans as I went along, but it's underglass now. Painted it, but didn't like it. Stripped it Repainted it Engine Interior Nick
  17. My top 5: #1) '61-'64 Dodge D100 Sweptline, preferably a 318 3spd truck, also preferable if it is in original condition (not perfect though). #2) '70 Plymouth Duster, 318, 904 (727 would be preferable though), has to have the 14 inch Rallye's and a high Impact color, bench would be nice. #3) '68 GMC Custom 2500, Steel bed floor, leaf springs, 396 and a 3 spd manual on the floor. #4) '68-'70 Oldsmobile Cutlass W-31 (preferably a '68 with a Ram Rod 350) #5) '93 Chevrolet C1500 Silverado Indy 500 Pace Truck What I own: 1993 Chevrolet Cheyenne C1500 (305, 4L60E 4spd Auto W/ Overdrive, longbed single cab) 1969 Plymouth Fury III Convertible (318, 727 3spd auto) Nick
  18. Niko, glad your still around. I'm not sure Yet Riley, I'll have to think on it and then Make an announcement either yes or no. Nick
  19. We sadly are nearing the end of this Build, As much as I would have liked to have built a second more race styled vehicle I don't think I'll be squeezing one out, I'll Post a group Underglass on Jan 1st at some point. Nick
  20. Turns out I have a '66/'67 and a '70
  21. I just chose the topics discussed in the 2012 CBP page, I think there are a few that overlap. Nick
  22. Got this from Pat Redmond as a built up he received in a large collection.stripped the body, then had to sand the body down, the paint that was on it actually etched the plastic. So here it is primed, this will be sort of a tribute to Carrol Shelby. I won't show the paint or disclose that part of it till I'm ready to assemble everything. Before: Currently: Nick
  23. What years was the Toronado kitted and who were the manufacturers, also does anybody have them and can take pictures of the front & rear, I'm trying to figure out what year and manufacturer the two built ups are so I can buy parts. Nick
  24. Stephen, the Fleetside beds don't fit on the Stepside Cabs unless you cut the mounting tabs off. Nick
  25. Charlie I actually used the bands I found when I ripped apart a cassette player, The Courier is a MotorMax Diecast. Nick
