    The 1/8 Jag was run by RoG last so they may have it. The 32 Ford was in China last so doubt Atlantis has it. Not sure where Camaro's or Firebird molds ended up. Send Pete/Atlantis a note and suggest.

    For those that want to try it.....I use Dupli-color #1699 primer sealer as a Cup chassis gray. Very thin great coverage over color plastic.

    I like siler as a undercoat. I also use Dupli-color #1699 primer with a little prep.

    Dad drove me to a huge parking lot that had a basketball court. He got out of our 1973 Pinto Wagon 4 spd manual, handed me the keys and said drive for an hour while he played basketball. I wanted to drive so bad I learned in that one hour. That 73 Pinto was really a decent little car.

    Is that the 1/72 kit from the UK? I like Traction engines too.....I have the 1/16 kit by Entex I hope to build someday. Nice work!!!

    Agree on all counts. Box art is not as easy as it looks. I submitted my version of box art for the Moebius Hudson as I did the artwork for the decals. Sean ended up doing the box with some of my elements....and his did come out better. mine Sean's

    Very nice work. Usual Tamiya build or any bugs? I have one put back to build my brother in law's JPS version. He owned in back in the 1980's. FUN car until you find out there is no protection from side impact with that backbone frame set up!!

    Remember when Colin Chapman's skirts on the Lotus were mind bending radical ideas????

    When you are old, like me, it's called nostalgia.........and we enjoy it. But I understand what you are saying.....it's all comes down to personal POV!!!

    Jada needs to invest in a ruler.....they are missing sales with their box scale.

    Chassis is the same Salvinos chassis that was under OLDS and Monte Carlo. Leaf's out back, bars in front. Which engine is correct depends on the year you are building. I do not have exact dates but NASCAR went from HEMI, big block to 366 or smaller during the use of that body Charger.

    I think I know where they got the idea for the 30 box........ A good idea for a '2 kits in one box' maybe??
