Resin is more brittle than plastic, but I have carefuly opened hoods with great results. Never tryed doors but can't see that being much differant.

Hey, they all gripe about SUV and Hummer owners! Turn abouts fair play!

I scored a built '74 Bobby Allison Chevelle at the HMCA swap and show today, it's in the Purple Pond right now. I will be correcting the wheel openings and doing a stock '73 SS 454 build.

Ed, I have one of those Rambler kits, and the Hawk Hudson too. In the someday stack. Nice but simple. Art Anderson was doing a ful detail build on the Hudson a few years back. I wonder If he ever finished it?

Enjoyed looking at your stuff, but finances wern't there for me at this time. Hopefully next time I can take a few things home with me. A 1911 Chevy maybe?

Sorry, that was ment to be an edit.

Not everyone bows at the blue oval when it comes to old cars, I'd like a curved dash Olds and a Stanley Steamer in 1/25'th too.

I saw one of these very cleanly built at the HMCA show today. As a curbside (the hood was on and I didn't pick it up) it presented it's self very well.

I'm not too sure just what you are asking, but I remember 57 Chevys were orange or yellow, were powered by 327's, set real high, had Cragar whells and Hurst shifters. These "things" with powerglides and wide white walls and easter egg colors, I have no clue why anyone would do that!

I also bought a 48 Chevy Coupe in resin too!

It seems that if I want a new kit tooled all I have to do is spend big bucks for a resin kit or do a scrach build / conversion. In the last few years I have bought resin kits of a 72 Olds Cutlass Convertable, a 50 Olds, a 55 Chrysler 300, a 53 Hudson, a 57 Chevy 150 sedan, converted a 57 Chevy Belair hardtop into a sedan, And a Modelhaus Tucker.

Great show and swap, if the weathers nice I'm driving my Manx. Anyone else going???

The bar going forward should never attach to the upper bar in the center, it should go from the corner to the outer floor above the boxed section of the unibody. Better yet do the six point posted above .

If the weather is nice I'm driving my Manx.

I have one, but haven't built it yet.

Also used in '68 on 350 SS Camaros, big block '68 Camaros got the four stacks trim like the '69 SS Camaros.

Actualy one was raced in NASCAR, it is restored and was in Hemmings Classic Cars mag a few months back.

I would have thought than any vehical model would be fully welcomed, not just in the other models section.

A bit of trivia, in the opening of American Graffiti the drive in used for the set was on the wrong side of the road to film the setting sun behind it. They filmed a sunrise and ran the film backwards. Also, my brother has an OLD roundtop Norge fridge in his garage for "barley pops". Works just fine!

1440cc single? That adds a new meaning to the term "thumper".

I had no idea you were going through anything like this. Makes my problems seem like nothing.

Sears has a pin vice set for about $7.

Looks good to me !

The color combo on the bike is from 1979 / 80, and with that AMF logo on the box I'd bet the kit dates from then too.

I'd love to have it, so I'd say build it!!
