where to find the kit now???? and being a curbside...what kit came with an buick 455 motor???

73-74 buick century

hold on!... YOU NEED TO READ UP ON THIS ARTICLE! http://www.hotrod.com/thehistoryof/113_0510_moonshine_runners_cars_history/viewall.html

if you want another one.... http://www.ebay.com/itm/Screw-Bottom-MODEL-CAR-KIT-VALIANT-1960s-issue-plymouth-1-25-slot-custom-nice-/200692256357?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2eba30ce65#ht_1051wt_1270

anyone know where to start to build a 74 buick??? or even point me in the right direction???

also one other thing... paint it a dark color...for the reason is they ran loads mainly at night time !

whats the cost?

as a hillbilly myself.....find heavy duty truck springs for the rear and a caddie over head engine is perfect!....thats how NASCAR started! just ask Junior Johnson!

ok pics....so far everything but exhaust, wheels and tires....and fuel tank ...other than that the chassie is done pretty much! comments and criticism welcomed!

oh man ...i need one of those revell miata's...for a project that i want to build!...i need to find one and also find a mustang gt kit for donor parts!

ok ...i never heard of that movie...of course i wasnt born till '85!... :lol:

it looks like in the gasser pic...that is actually a afx car!...meaning move that rear wheel section forward about 2 or so inches!

DMCL CHARGER??? is that a tv show car or a movie car or what/????....killer by the way in that sublime yellow i think is the name of the color????

by the way this is the model im building.....I GUESS ITS AN AOSHIMA KIT? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Toyota-4x4-Pickup-Truck-Aoshima-Lifted-1-24-Model-Kit-Sealed-Hilux-Longbed-/250950758021?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3a6dd4ae85#ht_2825wt_1037

ok ill get pics up after i get the chassie wrapped up ....but i got the chassie all painted minus a few parts im trying to decide what to do with?...mainly exhaust, fuel tank, shocks, and crossmember that is halfway painted so far....

my load is really not a load! mainly a new John Deere sweatshirt ....a big can of popcorn (3 flavors) ...an old tractor book....and brought a model home thats going to be my entry into the mini truck build not going to post pics unless someone wants to see some

ill get pics up in a day or so after all this turkey wears off! ill be working on an nissan longbed p/u aoshima ...its blue on the box

NO! IF IT ISN'T BROKE DON'T FIX IT!

what do you mean its to late to cast it?....i would love to build one of those myself!...im tired of seeing 38-70 chevelle kits!

wow is he HAPPY! I FEEL SO MUCH BETTER NOW!

well im going to get a pic of the owner with his "NEW" truck when i see him in a few ....i didnt get it screwed down...couldnt find a screw that would work..there all to big....so ive temp. glued it down...the sleeper will stay but the cab i dont know...and ill give it to him that way telling him not to pick it up by the cab or anything ...just pick it up by the chassie....its only temp since i got a new set of screws on it ordered...so what do you guys think!....it was heck but I FINALLY FINISHED SOMETHING AFTER 15 SOME ODD YEARS OF BUILDING! YYYYYEEEEEEEHHHHHHAAAAAAWWWWW! now go finish something else ...

finally pics....ITS DONE BELIEVE IT OR NOT! just wait till the shop opens up and get a couple screws ran up in it to hold it together but its finally DONE! FINALLY! WHEW!

nice job so far!

ok final coat of paint just applied ...now wait till morning to get some really killer pics for you guys!

got coat number 2 of the black on now,.... need another coat at least..... then ill check and see if it needs another....then after that it should be painted and ill let it cure over night and get pics up tomarow before i reassemble it....and give it back to the owner as a Christmas gift for him! :lol: WISH ME LUCK ON THIS GREAT UNDERTAKING!
