  1. I would totally get one if they reissue it. The Galloping Ghost II is pretty rare these days. I seriously hope they do reissue it. Another one I've been waiting for is a repop of the 1968 Hemi Under Glass. It was turned into 1969 issue. The chassis parts are available in the L.A. Dart/Hemi Hunter kit, and the body is also in the 1969 Barracuda kit. All they have to do is repop the Hilborn injection and Hurst Wheels. I wonder what happened to the parts from the Galloping Ghost kit. Are those still around?
  2. Having a bit of trouble with the front flares on my build of GT350R 5R101. I don't think I did the wheel openings right, having overhanded one of them. What would be the best way to fix the wheel openings so I can get the styrene to form the shape of the flare to sit in the correct position? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
  3. The kit I'm building is the first release of the Black Widow from 2009.
  4. Not sure if I've asked this before, but has anybody had any issues with getting the hood to fit correctly on the Revell 1957 Chevy 150 Black Widow kit? What is the best way to do so without having to strip the paint off of the body? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
  5. Is there a way to make a set of louvers for the AMT '62 Pontiac Catalina hood?
  6. Wasn't Round 2 going to be bringing back the Ramchargers dragster?
  7. This is really too bad. I planned on ordering decals from them!
  8. Looks awesome!
  9. What do you think so far?
  10. So, I'm working on a '57 Chevy Black Widow as well. I painted the body, got all the decals on it, and did a test fit of the hood. Unfortunately, the hood did not fit, and I am trying to figure out what I should do. I really don't want to strip the beautiful paint job and decal work on this one, but I would like to know the best way possible to save this one. What do you guys suggest?
  11. Here's where I'm at guys. I don't think I'm that far off, but it might need some slight tweaking.
  12. The car I am doing is serial 5R101, which is the Harr Ford car. 5R101 received a major restoration to original specs following a very bad accident during the 1986 Monterey Historic Races. The car has the original style rear flares on it now, and that's the version I am doing. To my understanding, the right rear is correct, but the left needs work.
  13. Having trouble with repairing the left rear fender opening on a build of the Monogram '65 Shelby GT350R. I want it to be correct compared to the real car. The opening on the right looks okay, but the left, not so much. Are there any suggestions on how to repair the left rear? Please let me know. Thanks!
  14. I happen to be looking for one of these. Either something that is in OK shape, custom parts missing, or a clean built-up.
  15. These came out great! I can't wait to see how the Grand Sports come out. I plan to do the same thing with the Monogram GT350R kit.
  16. Sweet! I plan to do the Essex Wire version at some point. I'm debating whether or not to build it in the Riverside livery or when it ran at Laguna Seca. I still need to order the early style Halibrands since I have photos of the car with those wheels on it.
  17. I can't wait to see these finished!
  18. If I ever build an FIA car, it would have to be CSX2259, which was driven by Dan Gurney and Bob Johnson.
  19. I'll keep an eye out. I also have the Hemi Hunter/L.A. Dart for a '67 Hemi Under Glass conversion
