    Take the Phantom Vickie and the 32 sedan body from MPC and get a cool 32 Sedan build1

    I do decals for the '75 Greenwood car. They fit the Grip, Airfix etc body.

    I made a few laser cut kits. Only one was automotive. This was a conversion kit to turn Mixer into Yeller. AMT soon issued Yeller so no more need!!!!! I did a few HO model train kits. One was a diner.....

    Looks pretty simple.....if no one has ever done them I may under my Penngwen line.....

    Neat, clean build!

    That one would be a tough one to ID. I may be a O scale motor.....and the issue there is like the early years of the auto.....there were 100's of model train makers that swapped out suppliers on a whim. Sorry no help here....

    One of the worlds largest auto maker is on the verge of a hydrogen breakthrough. They will make electric cars to fill the 'want' for them....but will stop when the hydrogen vehicles are ready. They will make everything from small commuter cars to 18 wheelers. Electric is dead if this is perfected.

    Also note......when Bel Decal paper was forced out of business I ordered 4 - 5 different brands of laser paper. One brand jammed so bad it damaged my printer to the point it is not useable any longer. I will not recommend a single brand as until you use it in your printer, you do not know if it will work. Getting a new paper to work cost me hundreds of dollars. Good luck

    FYI the Chevys are MPC promos.......All are good. Look up values on ebay for what they sold for recently....that's the going values.

    The perfect storm.........most paper is now made in China......and a few years ago someone was permitted to patent decal paper, a process around since the 1800's, and ran all USA makers out of biz. Greed

    Cool build idea!!!

    Brian / Walker on the box would not be good. I think there is still litigation going on around his crash/death. Understandable why they passed.

    I want one to go with other FnF models!! Thx for the info!!!

    In 2022 NASCAR teams will NOT be able to build chassis, can NOT hang bodies, vast majority of the car is locked in. Engine tech has not changed greatly since they won the Championship in 2012 so bring an engine and drop it in a generic Cup car. Pretty simple. It would be nice to have 4 manufactures in the series. In 1988 we had FIVE!

    Sold my a Daytona Transporter for a decent price last weekend.....good timing!

    We had no cell service until 3-4 years ago.......I loved it!!!!! And about ten miles north is a Federal Dark Zone....no cell, WiFi or microwaves!!!! Before we got cell service in part of our area people would run into my son's retail store.....'WHAT HAPPENED TO OUR CELL PHONES?!?!?!?' My son would feed their panic Dang Russians!!!!! then duck under the counter.

    I don't use FaceSpace....the only thing I see it do is start slap fights among adults as if they were 12 years old. It's a dying platform so allow it to pass on alone.....

    Well done!
