MCW resin 63 Fairlane and 64 Comet opinions?
dimaxion replied to 2zwudz's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
This is a MCW '65 Cornet 500 . I finished this sometime prior to the Praying Mantis Kits . A Tribute build of one I serviced in the '60's . Bought as a Muscle Car , top of the line Cornet 500 . Poverty Caps ans el cheapo Tires sans Whitewalls . On day 2 it would get Redlies and Cragers IMHO and what I recall . Yeah , it's gotta a Street Hemi 4 spd. like the 1:1 did . No power anything to steal HP from the Tires . The only Problem I had is my ow fault . The rear (chromed) Tail Panel was a struggle . I did not check the fit during the dry testing . In my haste .. I exerted too must pressure and blew out the entire Left side of the casting while on final assembly . / Repair / Re-do paying attention to clearances of tight fitting Body parts . This is not Not Dave's fault . My Painting Process creates layers of pint I did not consider .. Live and learn . I faithfully check nowadays . It has been 20 Years .. I have yet encountered problems with castings . R&R included . For comparison , the Yellow one is the Playing Mantis with the 426 Wedge Stage IV . No Power anything , yet Opted out .. Thanx -

Paul , this is stunning like the 1:1 . I drove a 1:1 for 14 Years (78MY) . I bought one in Steel , now I will in Resin Are the Polycast Wheels part of the planned product ? I am remembering the Anti-Sieze I placed on the Hubs to prevent the Wheels from freezing to the Car .. Yes I went those wheels on my replica please Thanx

Mercer vs Stutz . You must be Nuts to own a Stutz ! Nothing could be worser than to own a Mercer ! I want a Mercer , I have the Stutz . Same Wisconsin Beaver 4 Cyl Engine . Same Transmission . Hmmm . difficult modifications fr a Model Kit Maker . No Patent Infringement problem do I see ? Sales results is the problem .. Thanx ..
