I need door handles. How do you guys do those? Perry

Couple of additional pictures. Seems to line up well. Camaro roof has a slope down on the sides to the rain gutters. The Corvair top is fairly flat to the gutters. I need to save and graft the pane l under the backlight into the Camaro top. Perry

I am starting to try to build my first car, a 1965 Corvair Mona 4 door. I have one of the AMT Corvair kits, and an early Camaro body. The plan is to transplant the Camaro roof on the Corvair. It looks like the roof would fit fine. I plan on cutting the Corvair behind the windshield to use the stock Corvair windshield. At the C pillar it might be harder. I need to keep the lovers on th3 rear body work on the Corvair. Time to do some measuring. Any one that’s done this, please chime in with thoughts. Thanks, Perry

66-69 Corvair differences
gbtr6 replied to Oldcarfan27's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I'm reviving this as I hope to build my first car, a 1965 Corvair Monza. It was a four door, got it in 74 for $75 and it was rust free, only needed a battery. Had a three speed on the floor. I enjoyed it very much, but sold it to get a 1965 Triumph TR4. What are the external differences? Anyone convert a 2 door to four? Or is there a resin body for it. Perry -
Blue Scuro is a very nice color on these. Nice dark blue. Perry

Nice dragster Scott. Well done. Perry

Truck Quiz #11 - canceled due to offending of rules
gbtr6 replied to carsntrucks4you's topic in Real or Model? / Auto ID Quiz
Scott, don't worry about it. You apologized, everyone makes a mistake or two. No one died or is bleeding. It's a hobby. Hope you come back and try another quiz, they are fun. Perry -
I knew it was German, but thought MB was too obvious. Perry

Parnelli Jones 1967 Cougar Trans Am.
gbtr6 replied to mark 23's topic in Other Racing: Road Racing, Salt Flat Racers
Cool car, very nicely done. Saw a replica of Parnelli's Ford at Elkhart Lake for the Vintage. David MacNeil was there with his 250GT TdF too. Must be nice. Perry -

That’s funny. Being a teacher, you’re doing a wonderful thing. And it sounds like your kids appreciate it. Perry -

That is really sweet for your student to do that. You’re making a difference in all their lives. Good for both of you. By the way, any relation to Steve Aho from Mankato? Perry -

Very nice build of an iconic Le Mans car. Well done. Drivers should be Keke Rosberg and Yannick Dallas. Perry -
B-52 BUFF
gbtr6 replied to Kit Basher's topic in All The Rest: Motorcycles, Aviation, Military, Sci-Fi, Figures
Exactly. I could see them coming, but you couldn't hear them until they were on you, and past. Of course, at 20,000 feet +, they're pretty undetectable. Perry -

1965 Ferrari 275 GTB
gbtr6 replied to Scale-Master's topic in WIP: Other Racing: Road Racing, Land Speed Racers
Looks like Preston Henn's Yellow 275GTB/C Speciale, #6885 one of 3. But his was a 1964. Perry -
Kurt, Thank you, I appreciate the trust. Hope to deal with you again. Perry
