    Thanks so much Jeff,,yea those giant mirror brackets looked a bit too much,,just trimmed them off. I also used a leftover parts bx air-cleaner,looks a bit cleaner,,its actually a wheel back from some kit,,dont know which one. I did the snowmobile as if it were ski-doo colors. Ive got the MPC "Mountain Goat" yet to do,,itll make a nice combo on the shelf. Thanks for looking,,Build On!

    Hi all,hope alls well for ya,,I just finished this Revell "Ice Patrol" kit. Fun kit to do,,sprayed w/Testors "Lime Ice" quickdry enamel,,and some basic wiring and such. Always enjoyed the early 70's AMC products,,my grandpa had a Blue + white interior Jeep Wagoneer ,,had many a fun trip in that one. Enjoy the builds here,,Build on!

    Thanks OSK,,I thought about lowering it,,but I wanted to go stockstance,,those Cragars rims that come in the kit are almost models in and of themselves after 3 different paint tones on them. I was laughing at the wing,,and how "incorrect" it is for the car,,thats why I like it on there,,lol. These things were dragstrip monsters back when,,I was watching YT vids of them on the track. Would be fun to drive thats for sure.

    I found it to be pretty fun to build,,you can do so much to it with the large scale and all,,I pushed mine outside the envelope a bit

    Thanks guys,,forgot to mention I shaved the doorhandles,,and added sportmirrors And I left the wing windows out as well ,,I use my imagination and ponder what if it had a 1 pc window. Its not quite a contest level build,,but I did have fun building it! Enjoy the builds here,,have fun!

    Happy New year! This is a version of the Moebius 65 Comet,,kindof an AFX Street car,,sortof. Used some different back tires,,,added headrests,,,,blower on the 289,,,,side dump pipes,,,,and the WING. Every car should have a wing/spoiler right? LOL. Sprayed with Testors Quikdry{"{Icy Blue"},,used stock kit cragars,,just painted them instead of chrome. Did 2 tone interior. Moebius offers a really cool kit to do many different versions,,I may have to get another kit and do a stock version. Thanks for looking and have a safe + happy New year 2019!

    Hi all fellow builders,,wishing you a happy thanksgiving coming up. I always enjoy the oddball,,not so popular kits to build. This is one I got for 10$ at April #DAMM show in SE Mich. Its the 1996 pop of Jack Baldwins SCCA trans-am Camaro. First off,,its not the color scheme of the original car,,but I like it in light blue just the same. It went together fairly well,,the decals were scary,,trying to get them to hug the radius scallops/lines on doors ect. I used the decal micro-soft stuff,,and after a while they went on decent. Added some minor wiring/plumbing,, not a contest car,,but a good addition to my shelf. Hope this finds you doing well! Build on!
