Yea, I didn’t know anything about those particular kits they had, so instead of buying something I wouldn’t build, I just passed. I’ll be checking back to see if any Revell kits make it to the shelves. Last time they had models, I bought a couple of 55 Chevy pro sportsman kits, some 64 Dodge max wedge kits, and a few other really nice kits. Fingers crossed.

Not too bad for $40. Had the international tractor as well, but I only bought these two. None of the car kits interested me.

Looking good, Jason. So.. those are the door panels only flipped over? You did a great job on them. I thought for a minute that they were from the Moebius 65 Belvedere interior. Maybe add a bit of panel line accent to bring out the parts you scribed? Just a suggestion. Cant wait to see this build come together.

Outstanding build. Do you have any front and rear pics? I’d like to see a better shot of the PE grill you used on this build.

Haha, and I proof read the post before replying.... *buy

Stopped in the Allentown store last night. Had a bunch of ships and planes, a few old Lindberg Ford and Olds cars, the Datsun, and the VW bus. Seemed to have a ton of single car display cases as well. Gonna check the local Wilkes Barre store in about an hour to see what they have. I’m not getting my hopes up too high though. I don’t think this one will be as good as their last big but out.

Looks fantastic John. I really enjoy watching your builds.

Pretty neat idea here, can’t wait to see it completed.

Thanks for the heads up. I usually check out the Ollie’s on Tilghman when I go to Allentown for my doctor appointments for my back. Would be checking it out this Thursday. Nothing in the WB, Scranton, or Hazleton stores, because I always check when I’m there. Maybe these kits are leftovers from that huge buyout the had? When they initially had all the cool kits, I was forced to decide which ones I really wanted. I must have bought about 10 or so.,

There is a JoHan 65 Fury on eBay now with some seriously messed up pillars. Starting at $85 with no bids. I passed on it. Trent, yours don’t seem that bad at all. I’ll be following this build along with your super bee.

The only time the few Ollie’s in my area had anything decent was when they had that initial huge buy out of kits. Haven’t seen anything since.

I don’t have a problem with the ads, except for when I try to sign in, and an add is covering the tab I have to click on. That gets annoying quick.

Here is another Hemi car I found. Could this be a clone? Or just a non lightweight Hemi hardtop car that you mentioned Bill? Sorry for all the questions, but man, Mopar has a lot of stuff out there. Between Belvedere, Savoy, Fury, Scamps, Swingers, Dusters, Gold Dusters, Space Duster, Coronets, Roadrunners, etc. But I’m learning... lol

Found a fairly decent pic of an interior from a Mecum auction. Plain door panels with no armrest, light weight seats, and a black floor mat. This is a Hemi car.

Nice work on that build, Wayne. If I decide to use the 64 Lawman chassis, I don’t think there should be any problems. I know I have quite a few un built Hemi engines in my stash. As soon as I get another car or two that are already started, I’m going to start this one. Btw that JF body cleaned up real nice. I think it’s a really nice cast. I’ll post a pic later.

Thanks for posting the pics, Bill. Didnt the Lindberg Dodge Kits have a differential that is not correct?

Was the Maverick K member any different than Color Me Gone car to mount a Hemi? Or are their chassis parts the same as well?

From what I remember from looking at the Lawman chassis, it seemed like it has the same exact parts that the Dodge cars has in their kits. The Lawman car was a Lindberg kit just now in an AMT box.

So if you use the Lindberg Dodge chassis and floor, it would be too wide for the 64 JF body? The Lindberg 64 cars do seem to look like they are a bit wide. The JoHan Polara looks more correct to me, anyway. I was planning on the using the Lawman chassis, or the 64 Dodge chassis. I really don’t want to get into transplanting the roofs.

I plan on painting mine to resemble this one though...

Thanks. I was figuring it was a thing with the trim option. I was reading that the Savoy needs the rear trunk trim removed, and just uses the block lettering. I do have a single headlight grill from Missing Link I plan on using. This will be a Hemi car as well. This pic gave me the idea to build one. Not so much the black on red, but I like the way this animal sits.

What’s the difference besides the fender emblem? I was planning to sand that’s off.

The Fury is one exceptional build. I really enjoy watching your builds come together the way they do.

Looks fantastic Don. Everything looks perfect.

I hear ya, Bill. Your move was a pretty good distance away too. Glad to hear you are getting settled in though. I’ve been out of work with major back problems for 3 years now. So I have a bit more time to build than you do. I think this body will work out just fine though. I cleaned it up a bit and it’s looking pretty good. All the trim, and wheel wells are real crisp. This one will get the single head lamp grill I bought from Missing Link. I have a Lawman Kit, I’d like to build up as a lightweight max wedge. I’ll most likely buy another one for the hood, and pretty much everything except for the body. I might hold off on the Bandit sedan body for a bit. I appreciate the info you provided for me.
