Not to stink up this project but the 86 vs 87 chassis are two completely different animals. If the goal is a custom 86 Bird no problem. I may be wrong but 83-86 Gird was Fox based while 87-88 Bird was a new IRS platform......is my brain getting mixed up? just a FYI

MK needs to do that one!!!! nice work

Yep.....there was a internal oil line with a 90 degree bend.....no matter what you did the engine starved for oil after 100K......

I bought new a 1999 candy apple red Concorde. It was the most comfortable highway car I ever owned. Bad thing and why they are not seen much is they had a internal oiling issue and all of them failed even with by the book service. I built a model of it removing the areo stuff etc

I see why they picked this subject. For a 3D design it's as easy as any truck ever made. I just started 3D design for some model trains tuff and this truck is so simple the art needed to produce it is easier than say a Studie or Hudson P/U that might be more popular.

So nice to see that car built!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wonder if the 'El Camino' option will be in it???

Dealt with Tom Carter for years.....Now Matt owns it. Same service and fair shipping. My last order I over paid on shipping and Matt refunded my money fast!! Good folks in the hobby for 30-40 years.

My NAPA has a decent supply.....also ordered a case of semi gloss black off amazon.

It may be the supply chain shortage that hit many spray can manufactures over the past 2 years. I know the Dupli-color I use was hard to find and when the supply came back it was more $$$$ than before. Check their website????

Nice work.......Roush's first win IIRC

Nice work!!! I have one with some Indycals decals in he queue.

Not sure what you are asking. The movie Bullitt car is a `968 which share zero sheet metal with the 65/66 body. If you are just wanting to build a 'Bullitt Style' 65 then build it stock, green with 5 spoke wheels. No scoops on hood or side vents.

You guys are hitting it on all 8 cylinders!!!!! With SAE gone and CM was floundering I was worried. Now CM reminds me of the old CM & MCS days!!! Thank you all for the hard work.

Thanks.....we lived in So Cal all of the 1960's and I think Datsun was pretty much on West coast at the timr. I'd love to find one. It was a mini Ford Falcon......same type suspension, a mini 9" rear......it looked like Datsun just shrank one down!!! Keep us posted!

COOL project!!!!!! My very first car was a Datsun PL411 4 door sedan. It was tough as heck car!!!!! Ugly as sin...... My son builds Toyota Camry and others at the Toyota Lexington KY factory.....they so good work! not mine but exact same

Just like 'SPAM' phone calls .....e-mail senders are 'spoofing' their addresses and thus hard to block when they change address daily. In the mornings I just select all junk, hit delete and live with it.

The last issue of the RM 59 Caddy almost ALL the kits had crushed A pillars. RM made it good......but it should not have happened......agreed.

Very well done!!!! I rode SF cable cars but not in SF!! Knott's Berry Farm bought some cable cars and installed them at the park.

So far it seems WM ships them to stores in area WITH hobby shop (or HL) but not to areas without hobby stores. My local WM is 2 hours from any hobby kit retailer but NEVER gets kits. Yet in Lexington KY, with a number of hobby retailers, gets multiple shippers of kits?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Was at a WM in KY and they had the isle display AND half a isle full of kits. Nothing I needed at their price so I passed on buying.

AMC did do a Massive amount of parts sharing and swapping.........But not between the Hornet/Gremlin and AMX/Javelin line on major components. Front windshield on all AMX and Javelin are the same for all years, as are door skins!! Minor parts like door handles were on all models at one time or another!! I find a few parts shared between my Javelin and Matador even!!!

A NEW ERA.....wish I had the talent to design 3D

I am a AMC guy ....so cool project with a rare kit!!! Great tail light process too. And your helper buddy is good lookin!!!! Mine.....watching over display case.

Is that going to be like the big rigs that ran on NASCAR tracks?? Nice work!
