  1. Been working on this for some time, had to straighten several parts but missed the warp on the chassis. I had to add some blocks to get the body parts sit level and line up properly, but overall I'm pretty satisfied with the outcome. Question, did any of the moebius truck kits have decals for the hood lettering, I'm looking for a fool proof method to chrome the FORD script on the front edge of the hood.
  2. Looking for Jo-Han 1963 Oldsmobile Starfire Convertible Instruction Sheet & Decals
  3. Does anyone know the best way to install the multi piece interior tin on a polar lights Mustang Funny Car. I have built one of the chargers but I'm having some issues on the mustang. I would like to assemble as much of it as possible and install it in one or two pieces.
  4. Looking for a set of tires for the Union (not the Heller Issue) 1/24 scale 917K Porsche.
  5. Mark, you are correct I checked and this kit only has the screws in the front.
  6. Looking for a rear bumper for a AMT 1967 Ford Fairlane GT. Plenty to trade or $
  7. unfortunately there has not been much progress on this project since the last post. I had to pack away all my projects due to having to relocate but this in on the top of my list to complete once I'm settled at the new Location.
  8. These are some older customs I did about 15 years ago. Hot Wheels did a feature article on their web site about my customs. I wonder if they got the idea for the recent gasser cars they have been producing from these.
  9. Too many to choose from, how about the custom Mustang that was one of the original 16
  10. Making some progress. Got to start thinking about a paint scheme.
  11. I started restoration on this some time ago, several pieces were missing or damaged during the disassembly. Some of the parts were replaced by members of this board or replaced using a MPC Dyno Don Cougar as a donor. This is the first JoHan Funny Car with this type of chassis I have built, it's a very finicky build. This is the progress so far.
  12. Mark, I believe you are correct I found this image and it looks like the same body.
  13. I just purchased a lot of kits and there was a AMT Red Alert Chevelle in the batch. I inventoried the kit and it is missing the radiator support (shown in the instructions) but the body in the kit has the support molded in. I have searched the internet and every 70-72 chevelle body I could find does not have this piece molded in. Any clue what kit this body is from? There are no numbers or writing molded in the underside of the part. The chassis hood and interior fit perfect.
  14. These kits were a great concept but the fit on the parts were the worst. It's a real challenge to produce a decent looking finished product. I thought this would be a quick out of the box build, was I wrong. I must have used a half of tube of epoxy to hold this one together.
  15. Finally got around to decaling my gasser. Here are the completed photos.
  16. The 63 Vette Gasser is complete minus graphics. I'm still looking for some appropriate decals to finish her off, Suggestions welcome. The color is actually more of a eggplant color in person, I need to take some photos with better lighting.
