    And mine…

    That’s really nice with the perfect stance! Those MPC kits certainly aren’t perfect! For your next FC, I’d suggest one of Revell’s early/mid 70s FC kits - such as the Vega kit you took the injectors from. The rear axle needs to be dropped a bit on those to lower the rear, but they build up nicely. Also, if you can find a Revell Hawaiian Charger or Chi Town Hustler (those have 1970 Charger bodies) from 2010 or so at a reasonable price, they are excellent, modern kits.

    Shirley's car looks great! Nice work!

    It builds up into a very nice looking model!

    Here is one on eBay. Pricey and the seller says to expect to wait a few weeks. No idea if the part is nice or not.

    The new 54 percent tariff on goods coming from China will make kits super pricey. I wonder if R2 will hold off on development for a while as a result. I also wonder if there is enough kit tooling expertise in US to bring production here. I believe Salvinos designs and molds kits in the US.

    Made it to Park City, UT today. Great show coverage!

    Very, very nice. I built one as well, but had to start with the hardtop - cut it off and used a Modelhaus convertible boot.

    The hat looks great!

    That’s nice!
  11. Chris in Berwyn
    Those are both very nice!

    I bought this when it was released and finally built it. While there are several tricky parts to the build (despite its a fairly low parts count) I’m happy with how it looks - it is such a cool car. I’m not sure what I was thinking, but I did not join and putty the two-piece front section of the body before I started building. And I should have sanded off the battleship rivets on the wedge. You’ll also note that the white decals have some bleed thru. But I’m still happy with how it looks!

    Love the Atomic Al build! Very nice!

    Pretty cool that you have that. What sort of shocked me is that the Polar Lights funny cars came out 26 years ago. I bought several, and haven't built one of them yet! I did use parts from a couple of the kits on other builds (especially the wheels.) Chris

    I probably will pick up a copy. As Tim says, several online vendors have it too and you can save a few bucks buying from a couple of them.
