  1. Very nice Ron....and some wonder why I like promos so much...? There time pieces and full of memories.
  2. How did I miss this...???....AWESOME....! ...I love it... . I always got a kick out of the kits that were out that style.
  3. VERY NICE.... !
  4. I am putting one of those slant 4cyls in a old AMT 63 Tempest HT if I ever find the rest of the parts it needs...already have the engine.
  5. If anyone is trying to build a Boss Hog 68 Cadillac Convertible and has a HT please do not cut it up...would trade my convertible for it.
  6. I have a build up of the kit of this but its missing a lot of parts....Nice work!
  7. Welcome Bill...
  8. Finding 60s/70s straight 6cyl engines/trans has always plagued my Chevy/Ford/Plymouth/AMC projects. The AMT 69 Firebird kit has a nice in line 6cyl (Sprint 6 engine) in it.
  9. I understand what everyone here has said but to me it seems to be just a waste of a decent condition old car even if its a 4 door...seen way too many done that way around here...one was a 70 Plymouth Superbird a guy let sit in a hog lot and it eventually just rotted away to the point where once they did move it the car ripped in 1/2... ...I offered to buy or trade something for it for over 10 years but the guy said he hated it and it was going to just sit there as it did which he later scrapped it...I just cant get myself to understand people like that.
  10. Steve... I agree with the guys...cool and needs to get finished...nice details.
  11. Me too....specially the ones that had engines like your avatar photo with blowers on them.
  12. Id like to find the Pontiac TA one....looks cool...
  13. Well that figures....probably would not show up at our hobby lobby anyway i guess....bummer.
  14. I wish ours would get the newer kits in...been wanting a couple of the new Dukes Charger snap kits...ours probably wont get them in as usual...
  15. I need to get my hands on a couple of those snaps...but they have not shown up around here. Would be interested in trading for a couple of them if anyone has extras of them...just PM me.
  16. Ray... count me in the group too...I have a lot of cool ideas for builds but too often I lack ether the parts or experience to do some major modifications Id like to try...like converting some cars into late 60s or early 70s station wagons,opening doors with realistic looking hinges that work right...then there is always Murphy's luck or curse...
  17. Looks good to me...
  18. Chris...tell me about it...I love models/promos from this era and like the big bodied cars. I have some others but have to find/afford needed part to restore them. I have a goal to build vehicles the family owned for the memories.
  19. Rich... if i find myself in your place here i will sometime build or restore something a bit different than my norm. You build/restore them so beautifully and have a good stash by the sound of it...that alone would give me the drive buddy....
  20. Very nice Clayton and for him to want to give them back to you just shows the friendship you have shared along with the love of building. I have built a few for others too like you did for him as a gift...very nice of you and him.
  21. I need to have your luck....been after a 64 Pontiac to convert into a 4door wagon like my mom use to own for awhile now...I have loads of memories riding in the back of it as a kid...LOL...
