  1. I'm wondering if one of you could take some measurements off of a revell 06ish monte carlo chassis for me. I dont want to open what I've got unless it'll work because it's one of the Budweiser cars. I'm planning a silver state/one lap style 69 Nova, and am wondering if a nascar chassis would work without a TON of work, as I am not that talented. What I'm wanting is a WB, Track (from outside to outside with wheels/tires) and height of the chassis with the roll cage.
  2. I'm in Clarksville, TN/ Oak Grove, KY/ Fort Campbell, KY....
  3. So...the project is back on. Went to the LHS today to find something to replace the 62' with. Found the older AMT release with the blue car on the box. It was opened so I popped the top to reveal a poorly painted purple metalflake body. So once I figure out how to get rod of this paint, I'll be good to go. No betty crocker on this one though.
  4. Welp, all these parts are getting added to the junk bin. Melted the body while trying to bake on some pearl white (was going for a watson style paint job on this one: pearl white top, semi gloss black body.) Only had the oven on 200, and had it on the bottom rack (with the broiler on.) I stood there and watched it, as soon as I saw a reflection in the top it collapsed. Oh well.
  5. I've searched and searched and cant find one...anybody?
  6. OK, it's been a long time since I've built a model car, and even longer since I built a custom. Within the last 4 months or so I've bought about 10-12 kits, but most have been done box stock. This one, not so much.
