  6. Just like the real thing only smaller . Beautiful and road ready .. The Tricolor is so appropriate . Thanx
  7. I am a Factory Stock builder . What we have here is a replica . The Wheels look so right . Nothing not to like . The Vagueness is just DeRigor in the Day . I have Heller Kits too Thanx
  8. I so admire this one . The '67 Releases of the series I am missing . The Jordon is one . As I read the reviews , I am amazed the comments about how Eldorado and Tornado this looks . May I remind you Exner designed these with his son . It was during his tenure at Mother MoPar . Who inspired who I ask ? Perfect , alas lacking one small detail . The Heapy Cheapy Blackwalls make my eyes bleed . Kudos and I admire it . Thanx ..
  9. Yes , a part time friend was the gas Heater in a Corvair . As a giant plus used up gas faster than the Engine Thanx ..
  10. Perfect replica as it left the Factory . Then delivered and arrived at the Dealer . Freshly washed and Show Room Ready . Kudos .. Thanx
  11. Factory Stock Replica . With all the right stuff . Especially the Premium Tires . She's a beauty .. Thanx ..
  12. Thank you . I did match these . I have one of these without any Chrome . This buyer's misfortune . An unfortunate accident involving leaving the decals , Stock Tires wheels and all the chrome behind . The sad saga gets way worse from there . Now I can look with confidence for the replacement parts .. Thanx .
  13. About the V/8 in the AMT recent Revelle Jeep pickup for a '60's Jeeps were not AMC's yet . Willies was still Jeep until 1970 . Willies was to smart not to get into bed with GM and use sbc's . They remembered what happened to Studebaker making that fatal mistake . Instead Willies bought lock stock and barrel the Aluminum V/6 debacle . Buick mothballed and sold for scrap to Willies the entire project . Who promptly cured the ills and sold these quite well . Well into the AMC years . Eventually sold to the Leland LTD , later aka British Motors LTD until that collapsed . Range Rover retrieved all tooling and rights that passed through these hands . This brings us to the '80's when FoMoC was buying up failed British Car-makers . Range Rover was one of the acquisitions . Imagine the shock in Dearborn when the Engine was discovered for what it was . Post haste , a successful new Engine from FoMoCo . All the Tooling was mothballed again . Back in Detroit .. GM bought the V/6 back . The general did not bean counter destroy a suitable engine this time . lol .. look at the Generations of the 3800 . ..lol . Can you say bean counted ? MPC Jeepsters has this V/6 Engine in it . The Buick Opal GT has the same Mill with Hop Up Parts . Should a Resin Caster appear ? Thanx
  14. OK , I have a silly question about the '59 Corvette Pro Modeler release . Will the Pro Modeler '58 Chrome fit this kit ? Long story . Thanx ..
