Dart looks great so far. Desk looks so clean as it is only his first few car builds and he has time to keep it clean. Once all those new ideas and numerous projects start taking up space on the surface, less space to clean. Currently have 27 projects on my desk. Enjoy the clean space as it looks so nice. Welcome to the forum and may you long enjoy building cars. Duesie

Interesting facts about the 351 Boss or 351 Cleveland. Don,t the NASCAR models use the 351 Cleveland’s with correct water inlets? Duesie

Guys amazon pop up takes control of the site when trying to rad model car magazine forums. Amazon takes control of screen and unable to back out to forum page. appreciate any help as I do receive enjoyment and great information from the forum. thanks Duesie

Eric what did you use fir the red wheel disc? thanks for the builds as any classics are enjoyable. Duesie

Eric Noticed the red Murphy Duesenberg in the background and assume it is the car Fred Duesenberg wrecked. Where did your research note te cars color as it looks black in pictures? I am still trying to learn how to post my Duesenberg builds. thanks duesie

Eric The Cord resin that you are referring to were reworked efforts that Lee Baker created and the supplier lived in South Africa. He tragically died and all his resin production ceased I believe. Art Anderson may have more description of the history on the gentleman effort to revive has All American Duesenberg and cords. I was fortunate enough to acquire all of them as I am a Duesenberg nut. contact me if you need some help in acquiring a model for a project . Have some multiples of nearly all of the classic kits. Looking forward to your next project as the six ford model Ts were great.

I used the amt 67/68 mustang chassis on a amt maverick and shorten the front frame in front of the firewall a small amout and penned the pieces together for strength. Worked out great. Will use the mustang chassis on a Comet as well. Good luck and looks like success. Duesie

I received the Rollston Torpedo Victoria from Andy Martin today after ordering it a week ago. Fantastic transkit and upmost quality. Contains body, fenders, hood, carb ,exhaust as well as dash, interior seating and door handles. Thanks Andy for the great product and mailing after ordering. This was listed on ebay. I am still working on posting on the forum. Larry

Thanks for the heads up on an yew Duesenberg kit. I ordered the Rollston Victoria kit last night. i know Andy will not sale a lot of these kits, but always looking for any Duesenberg in this scale. Want to thank Andy for making this kit available. I have fifteen of the hoods and exhaust pieces which are of the highest quality. Highly recommended vender. i want to list some of my Duesenberg projects as soon as I figure how. I will go to the top of the forum and ask direction as I have a Rollston Victoria in the Ford collection that I would like to post. Larry

Art, I was learning a couple of good ideas on this build and it when away. your work had inspired me to get back to the modeling desk. Have you moved on to another great idea like many of us do before finishing our last creation? Thanks Duesie

I ordered 2 sets of 2015 Revell Mustang Snap kit head lights and mirrors and was very pleased with the service of one week and quality. Frank Rizzo says best way to contact him since he took the store web page down was to mail him at Daftwheels@gmail.com.I I don't know what you have tried, but just a suggestion an search under my post as Duesie for said head lights. Duesie

Mustang headlight arrived today ( Tuesday) and only ordered end of last week. Daft Wheels, Thanks for such responsive service and a great product. Duesie.

I just placed an order for 2 sets of Mustang headlights through Paypal. Thanks for your effort in creating these since we may not get a full kit of a 2016. Duesie

Thanks for the information and response about the headlights. I will be checking with you soon about two sets. Duesie

Is anyone casting headlights for the 2015 Revell Mustang snap tite> Thanks Duesie

Eric, I had a few questions about other Duesenbergs that you had built from a forum post on Nov.14, 2007. How can I contact you by email to discuss further. Looking forward to any progress on the Judkins Victoria soon. Thanks Larry

I don't mean to jump the topic, but my Rollston Convertible Victoria is not the Rollston Riveria. Fred Roes book is excellant resource for Duesenbergs and mine is replicate of one on page 209 at the top on the long wheel base. Thanks for everyones indulgence. I will study your picture closer .

Where did you find pictures of the dash gauges to make copies of for this build? You have inspired me to finish a Rollston Victoria model. Keep up the good work as we are all enjoying your progress. Larry

Eric, your building skills are impressive and glad to see anothe rDuesenberg fan on the site. The resin hood is a life saver as I have eleven currently on started projects. Please finish it this time so we can see it. Aardvark also has the down exhaust and carb for this conversion. The monogram metal Packard kit has a great body for conversion to open car duesenbergs per Lee Baker previos conversations. Currently modeling an Murphey open car on short chasis. Sorry to ramble on, but you hit one of my passions. Larry

When question have come up about paint removal on model bodies, I currently use Super Clean from Walmart at less than $8.00 a gallon and strips lacquer and enamel. Try it and you will love it as it doesn't damage plastic. Cleanup is wash with soapy warm water. Duesie

Another fan of cobras, but wasn't aware that amt had a 1/25 scale 427 cobra kit available or I am missung something. Larry

I would like to model a clone of the Monogram Blue Beetle pickup. I have the body from a late kit, but neet the seats and the cadillac valve covers. I thought I had read somewhere that someone was casting the seats and valve covers. I know Replica and Minitures does the scuba tank and such. Thanks for any suggestions. Larry Casey

I would add that being a great fan of the older classic cars and particularly focused on the Duesenbergs that any of these listed kits can make great conversion pieces with some research and effort. Model Martin's Mudd coupe is fantastic as is the stock Duesenberg hood he created. I have an order in for 10 of the stock hoods for already in progress Duesenbergs on my desk. The stock carb, air cleaner and stock exhaust can be cast from one of Art's old Duesenberg stock hood and accessory kit or from a Franklind Mint Gary Cooper yellow Duesenberg. I would be a candidate for any of the reissues or new classic resin kits. Larry Casey

Is Art going to sell 6 slot Model AA or TT 1928-1929 wheels? I have been searching for some for some time. Have a couple of 1929 trucks to build.
