  1. I know there are the Nascar version available but does anyone cast a stock 81'-87' Pontiac grand Prix?
  2. I am working on a 71' Cyclone nascar and it will be red white and blue. White is the overall color with red and white sections. What kind of tape can I use for masking the different colors that will nice crisp lines? I found some Pactra trim tape at home, will that give me crisp lines? What about fine line tape for masking? Thanks.
  3. Always primer the model car body prior to your topcoat. I like using laquer based primers such as Duplicolor or Plasticote when I'm using imron, centauri and other types of paint. If you just spray on bare plastic body there will always be a chance for adhesion problems with the topcoat.
  4. Will the stock 70' Cyclone resin hood from Modelhaus fit the Model King 71' Cyclone? Also, who sells a stock dash for the 70'/71' Cyclone. Thanks. George
  5. Duplicolor and Plasticote primers are the same. Down here in Florida, a lot of auto parts stores quit carrying Plasticote brand. You only find Duplicolor. I have used both brands for years and there is no difference between the two.
  6. What would be the correct gold to use for the Hurst Hemi Under Glass.
  7. The 68' Coronet R/T. We almost had it re-released back in June. However, it was cancelled. Dissappointed alot of modelers.
  8. Has anyone actually met and talked to Tom Mills in person, face to face? What is his character like?
  9. Apparently, the 68 Coronet was found. However, it was supposedly missing the glass and bumpers.
  10. The 68' Coronet R/T. By the way, we almost had it reissued last June. Maybe with the Model King's help we can resurrect that one.
  11. Great news on the 69' Chevy Nova. But, do we need another 57' Chevy? That horse has been beat to death for so many years. How about a 68' or 69' Dodge Coronet R/T?
  12. Just wondering if the kits are the same. Any differences in parts? Is one better than the other?
  13. I understand that the Barnabas Vampire van was released a couple of years ago in 2003. What did the boxart look like? Maybe someone on the board can post a pic of the the box art. I'm surprised that I missed that issue. I would have bought that one. Thank you. George Petrillo
  14. Here is my 68' Dodge Coronet 440. Had it since 79'.
  15. He is also doing the 66' Charger. It will be the Roger Lindamood Color Me Gone car.
  16. Maybe someone can post a pic of that art from back in the day?
  17. Down here, in South Florida we have Micheals Arts and Crafts. I checked there but no luck.
  18. Looking forward to this kit. Trying to find out when they will be out?
  19. The taillights are chromed. Instead of just brushing turn signal red over the lense part I was thinking about triming and fitting clear red thin plastic instead. The clear plastic I was thinking about using are those that are used for file tabs that slide on. Anyone ever do this? Thanks. George Petrillo
  20. Forgot to tell you. You can order the paint directly from Plastikote(Valspar). I had the problem not finding any retailers that carried Plastikote. I called up their customer service department and they told me I could order the paint right over the phone and they would ship it to me. You should try that.
  21. Don't feel bad if you don't find it A lot of automotive parts stores in my area dropped the Plasticote line for the Duplicolor. I live in the South Florida area.
  22. It's a nice change to just only to have to put the wheels on, etc.
  23. Here are the sku numbers for those two dragsters sold at Target: Wheeler Dealer 8 4358000116 2 Wynn's Jammer 8 4358000115 5 -both have the series #51240
