  1. I need door handles. How do you guys do those? Perry
  2. 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
  3. 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
  4. I don't see why not. Here's what one looks like. Lots of dental supplies help in modeling. Perry
  5. Andrew, That angle, and the bur looks familiar. Were/are you a dentist? I sell dental supplies and have those latch angle drives, the burs also. Impression material comes in handy for making molds to cast items. Perry
  6. Daily driver in summer. Top always down. If it’s bad out and for winter, the 328i. Perry
  7. 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

    Maranello

    Blue Scuro is a very nice color on these. Nice dark blue. Perry
  9. Nice dragster Scott. Well done. Perry
  10. 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
  11. Looks a bit like a Ferrari 250 GTO short roof. http://cdn.luxuo.com/2018/06/ferrari-250-gto-2-thumb-960xauto-86451.jpg
  12. I knew it was German, but thought MB was too obvious. Perry
  13. 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
  14. Very nice. Could be a 166 Berlinetta or 195S. Great build. Perry
  15. I see black and red wires, do the lights work? Perry
  16. I like option A. That subtle blue/gray you see now is really nice. Perry
  17. Very cool. When I heard restomod I remembered this one, It's a 300 SL, but you get the idea. Perry
  18. That’s funny. Being a teacher, you’re doing a wonderful thing. And it sounds like your kids appreciate it. Perry
  19. Wow. That’s a bunch of kids. We used to call Steve ‘Hairy Aho’. Perry
  20. 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
  21. Very nice build of an iconic Le Mans car. Well done. Drivers should be Keke Rosberg and Yannick Dallas. Perry
  22. 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
  23. Nice BUFF. I got to see these up close at K I Sawyer in the UP. SAC base, They came in over the highway. Quite the site. And sound. Perry
  24. Looks like Preston Henn's Yellow 275GTB/C Speciale, #6885 one of 3. But his was a 1964. Perry
  25. Kurt, Thank you, I appreciate the trust. Hope to deal with you again. Perry
