  1. Looks good!!!! I bought a few of the kits...yet to start one. What\s your opinion on rear glass???
  2. Well done. Wonder why they picked 1/28?? Close enough to 1/25.....I have the kits....but built very different!
  3. When I bought my 46 coupe I was looking for a sedan.....but after I saw the coupe I saw there was plenty of room for grandkids in back......still love the sedans! I want to put the bumpers back on mine....but that will be $$$$$
  4. THANKS!!! I bought the car in FEB 1975 for $600 from Young Ford Charlotte. Daily driver for many years. Finished a restoration just in time for the rainiest weekend ever at Charlotte Motor Speedway for Mustang 55th show 2019. Small block Ford with Top Loader 4sp.
  5. Did same with two of my hobby cars. Checked everything and went for a ride. Then put them both away as no shows........ Cool Toyota! Janet Guthrie started racing in one of those!
  6. Slow here on chromebook
  7. Great stance and work.
  8. You do not see that kit often......
  9. 1/24 scale. It was inspired by Disney hot rods. Look up 'All the Cats join in' and see......
  10. I think it's a combo of all those 50's and 60's hot rods that were almost stereotypes. It was fun.....thanks
  11. I was very unhappy back in the day when I bought this kit. It is 1/28 scale....AND very simple. Tamiya did a much better Capri.......
  12. IMHO Only.......Nothing you can fix........the rear window has sharp creases where it should be much softer. Google photos of the real Cup cars and you can see the difference. thx
  13. This is another build of the old 1960's era Linberg kits that they reissued back 10 years ago or so. I picked them up cheap....and enjoy making something from them. This build is kinda a tribute to a disney animated short that had teens, early 50's, riding around in old fender less hot rods. This is my version. Revell 29 Ford P/U supplied wheels, tires and nose/grille. Just a fun build....thanks
  14. With the Salvinos 1986 Pontiac GP 2+2 kit hitting the shelves it reminded me I had a built 2+2 in the vault. (otherwise know as the box in the basement) Rusty Wallace's 1986 NASCAR ride. This is the old Monogram kit with the JNJ resin conversion and Fred Cady decals. Two vendors that are no more! It was built around 1988 so she holds up well. . I bought two of the Salvinos 86 2+2 kits...very good....not perfect but nice to have a kit of this car.
  15. I want a 1/24-25 Azrek for my Breaking Bad collection.....
  16. Nice work and cool idea!!!! You may want to move that battery to the bed before hitting the track!!!
  17. Fantastic work!!! I love those Monogram classic kits......I was told once by a Monogram exec that these kits were a labor of love as they never sold well.

    32 Ford's

    A Lindberg 1/24 32 Ford I just finished.......The blanket is a decal I made.....pretty box stock
  19. Watch out for gravel on the road!!!! Good work!
  20. Super clean work....my fav!!
  21. YES!! Happy to see someone else build Richie's car. I did the decals in the MK kit.....and I had to do the Panch car. I was lucky enough to meet Richie a few times. I can't wait to see yours!!! Hope you don't mind me showing mine. It is box stock due to the fact we used it to promote the kit.....so I had to stay with whats in the box. Thanks
  22. Drag Note the Christmas tree in photo.....above Linda!
