1972coronet

Prince Chrysler-Plymouth-Imperial 11989 S. Hawthorne Blvd CA 107 Hawthorne, Ca.

Panther Pink / Moulin Rouge [FM3] was a nifty, Spring 1970 colour offered by Dodge (Panther Pink) and Plymouth (Moulin Rouge)

That looks fiddly, that original assembly. The "printed prop phone booth" is going to be cardboard ? BTW, great news that it's going to be produced in the USA !

Head [1968] , the Monkees film, got its title as a goof on Andy Warhol's [REDACTED] from c.1964

Neighbors is an underrated classic Black Comedy from 1981 which stars John Belushi and Dan Ackroyd in reverse-roles

The positive mounting points are one of the biggest improvements (i.e., the manner in which the exhaust manifolds or headers mount to the heads, for an instance). The decal sheet is outstanding; huge improvement over any MPC offering of that time ! Then there's the separate headlamp lenses (though I wish that there were two extra included, as I managed to lose one on my [mediocre] build), which are always better than moulded-in / plated offerings. Good call on the two extra front wheel mounting pins, too !

Truth is, today's society bears an uncanny similarity to the works of William Burroughs's imagination

J'm planning to do a mix-n-match with those decals : Lazy Larry's Take-Away : Champion Breeding

Awesome kits coming along ! Got me eyes on that Dually , Bronco, and maybe the Jeep. Keep 'em comin', Round2 !

Lots of white knuckle "drivers" on I-15 in the Murrieta/Temecula stretch, all travelling to the casinos -- just sluggin' along in the number one lane at a mind-bending 60-65 MPH, not a care in the world. It's nice driving a beater ex-police car -- surprising low-mid range torque for passing the s_it heels who should be travelling in the far right lane(s) ONLY.

Well, General Lee speaking, you may get into some trouble.

I'm of the opinion that the 1980's were responsible for ruining more Muscle Cars than the 1970's. So many over-restored / incorrectly "restored" cars from that era -- braided hoses, Pro Street, and, worse yet, original items/parts which were thrown away or plated-over, forever ruining their originality. I, too, enjoyed D.O.H. as a youth. I can't stand it these days -- really, since the mid-1980's as a teen. A friend-of-a-friend had (he sold it some 15 years ago) a 95% original 1969 Charger R/T 440 in factory Hemi Orange. He had to hide his car because of the clowns who were on him to sell it to that T.V. show. He knew how the cars were "treated", and told them to pound sand. And, this was during a (awful) period when a 10 year old car - in the stranglehold of the 1979-1980 OPEC crisis - wasn't worth the ground it sat upon.

Outlaw Josey Wales is one the greatest revisionist history films ever made

The seller ostensibly offers the same set for the orange car : General Lee 1:24 1:25 scale water slide decals Dukes Of Hazzard white backing | eBay IIRC, the Black General was used in the episode when them Duke boys were smuggling prunes across state lines (Dukes of Prunes S8-E15)

I'd be happy if the STOCK version of the 1/20 scale Econoline were to be remastered and re-released.

Your memory's better 'an mine. I certainly remember those overzealous eBay listings ; and, now that I think of it, I never witnessed an official announcement from Round2.

Run to the loo, but watch the aglets of your shoes

"Down on the street where the faces shine...", is the first line in the Stooges Down on the Street on their 2nd album , whose title is Fun House

"Fangs !", exclaimed Mike Tyson upon opening the box containing the grill which George Forman gave to him

Oh, yes ! Haha ! Bolstered my assertion.

Changing automatic transmission fluid annually / or 15,000 miles is an often overlooked necessity as part of vehicle maintenance

That was their original plan, some 10 years ago (!!). I remember that the 1971 Demon was announced and that orders* were received , but it was cancelled due to production issues. Related to that was the reissue of the 1975 Dart Sport 360, which was slated as a One Last Run of Fun , fait accompli. Like I've stated one more than one occasion, I just hope that the front wheelbase is corrected ! It's off side-to-side, and has been since at least 1973. Believe me, I'm no fan of certain aspects of the MPC Duster/Demon/Dart Sport kits (for an instance: console for an automatic, but a manual trans), but they're better than nothing. The AMT 1971 Duster 340's guts are easy to bash with the MPC bones. *I despise the embellishment "Pre-Order". Something is either ordered or it's not - there is no grey area.

Thanks ! Thank You ! Cellphone camera + natural lighting = mediocre photos. I feel that if the sun were out earlier (been overcast here until around 1200), the images would've been better. Thank You Kindly ! I had fun building it. Thanks. Thanks much ! I had that colour combo in mind when I started this build. I've seen a handful of "not-recommended" colour combos, and I just had to attempt to replicate a hypothetical representation. Thank You ! I'm limited as to where and when I'm able to photograph. I live on the 2nd floor (1st story) of an apartment; and, the photos are facing-east, right where the sun rises. If I dropped one of my builds over that ledge, I'd become all short-tempered Celt firstly, then I'd retrieve it (haha). Thanks much ! I'd say the most difficult part was painting those (dreaded) moulded-on seat belts. Thanks kindly !
