Does anyone know where I can get this type of body stripe in 1/24 or 1/25 scale. It's a multi stripe or mirage stripe. Thanks.

I put a posting in the wanted section but it disappeared a few hours later. I checked the post and it was in the want section right after Why do they disappear?.

It sounds interesting. However, I don't like the idea of being charged for a kit to be sent to me every month that I may not want. Want to be able to pick and choose. The only way I see joining is if they come out with kits that have not been out in 40 or 50 years and use those for the limited edition runs; ie, MPC 68' Dodge Coronet R/T, AMT 64' Grand Prix, AMT Chevy Impala/Chevelle drag team, etc. The Hotwheels Redline club does this. You sign up and pay the annual membership fee. Every month an old original Hotwheels car comes out and if you want it you buy it, if you don't like it you don't buy it and your not automatically charged for anything. The Hotwheel exclusives are very good and are from the 68 to 73 era; Custom Dodge Charger, King Cuda, Evil Weevil, Mighty Maverick, Beach Bomb , etc. They even came out with the Hotwheel car pictured on the packaging that came out in the late 60's. Also, you get a reproduction of the metal badge. If they take this direction more people would sign up. I hope it does not end up being kits that we've seen re-released over and over.

Moebius should consider doing a 68' Dodge Coronet R/T. 3 different versions can be done. A stock version, a Dick Landy drag car, and the #99 Paul Goldsmith nascar racer

Trying to contact JTkirk1701.

I have casted parts and bodies in the past. I have used casting resin from Vagabond and the GI-1000 silicone rubber from Silicones INC. Those products worked well. I did try the Alumilite resin 10010. That works pretty good too. Also, I used the silicone rubber from MPK. It's the 2125 and works well. Just want to find out about the other resins and results people are getting.

Wanted to get opinions from people that have cast resin; what is your favorite casting resin for larger parts and bodies? Thank you. George

A while back someone was trying to master a 67-70 Plymouth Valiant in resin. Anyone know who that was? Did it ever get released? Thanks. George

I had the good fortune of meeting and speaking with Dave Burkett at the NNL East back in 2001. I met his son too. They both were selling kits at their booth. He explained to me how he was working the Model King exclusives. He is a very approachable and interesting person to speak with. He is definetly an authority on model kits.

Needed to get an opinion from those that have casted resin bodies. I have casted resin bodys from time to time. I have casted bodies and casted the hood separately. Is it better to cast the body with the hood on it and then cut the hood from the body after the body has been casted? I have done this before. All I had to do was just cut on the hood/body line and the hood is out. At least this way there would be no need to make another mold for just the hood. Thanks.

Are you planning to cast that in resin? Lot of modelers would love to build any 69-73 Fury.

If it's a 68 Coronet R/T. Amen to that. Been waiting years for that one.

The grill on the white Monte Carlo is the one that I am asking about.

Want to find out who casts the 81-85 stock front grill/nose. Thanks.

I guess no one has tried it yet.

Saw that Walmart stocks Rustoleum clear in a quart can. It's in the automotive section. Instructions indicate it's ready to be used in a spray gun. Has anyone used this? It's about $ 21.00.

MPC 1968 Dodge Coronet R/T MPC 1968 Dodge Coronet Feverbee

Looking to see if anyone does a '76 Camaro front grill.

Someone had posted on that topic about Johan making an announcement that they were going to come out with the 69 Fury kit. Also stated was that there was an actual picture of the kit in the 70/71 Auto World catalog. I found my instruction sheet from the Johan 68' Fury kit. It illustrates what looks like a 69' Fury roof section. This probably confirms that there was some plan to do a 69 or 70 Fury. Someone on another board had mentioned about this picture, so I had to see for myself and they were right. Here is the instruction sheet showing the picture.

Also the Monkeemobile. You were also able to buy promos too.

Here is the pic of the Feverbee. This was the 3rd version of the MPC 68' Coronet R/T. The body and hood molded together. This was the drag car with the Logghe chassis. Even if Round 2 just only found this, most of us would be happy. feverbee.bmp

Anyone know when the Donnie Allison Cyclone is coming out?

Here is an order form for the MPC 69 Chargers and 68 Coronets. from back in the day. Notice the large scale wooden 68' Coronet model prototype and pictures of the models being packaged.

Here are the 68' Coronet builtups I aquired through the years. The silver one, someone glued on the custom airscoop and custom grill that was included in the original kit. The black one someone did it with stock hood, grill and used the optional Hurst wheels that came in the kit. What's interesting are the different building options you had back in the day.
