You captured the look and feel of the era very well Very Nice job

Theres just something about bringing a kit back from the dead.... great job so far I'll keep watching

Fantastic, Incredible build and something different. I have several of Chucks decals but havent got anything far enough along to use them. I Have had the worst Builders Block Ever.... several started, I sit at the bench but nothing happens......about 8 months now.

can you show us a pic of the container to see if its the same stuff I use?

Thanks Brett, you are a very diversified builder. I see a little bit of everything in your collection. Really like that green striped Fiat altered

Very Nice

Probably the best looking Bodd Nova ive ever seen..... Great work.

I think the new cars are alot better looking than the COT, Personally I hope Revell/Monogram jumps on board and kits some, Im ready for something new

I turned 50, felt great no issues what so ever , got pneumonia, landed up in the hospital, coughed so hard I gave my self a double hernia had to be operated on to correct it, have'nt been the same since.

Thanks Brett, You made me smile, love seeing all those built drag cars . You have a great display cabinet also.

Hey Bret, how about a photo of your display case / shelf

Big Fuel Altered fan here, and this is fantastic, I Love It.

Wow Great builds, hanks for sharing

Good advice here, Ive been in the insurance industry for 30 years, READ YOUR POLICY!!!!! they will cover collections but there is a dollar limit to it. If your collection exceeds this amount you need to have a writer added to the policy to make up the difference.

Amazing

Chrysler also used Pinion Snubbers, this was a bracket that bolted to the top of the third member with a rubber snubber that would contact with the floor pan under hard acceleration, acting like a lever, planting the tires harder onto the ground.

Welcome Marty from another kinda old guy

I'm supposing your talking about Funny car Bodies, here's the Revell body I modified by shortening the rear wheel openings almost a 1/4 inch and using the monogram slicks. To me it helped the look tremendously, On my next Monza build I will also add material to the rocker panels as the body seems narrow, could be because the shorter rear wheel opening lengthened the side profile.

Looks great so far

Heres a 73-75 Duster body I got off E-Bay, unknown maker, While they got the hood and front end right the overall detail and body lins are from soft to nonesistent. note the short deck is also pretty close. I ll probably start modifying the Revell body.

Some of the stuff Ive collected over the years, My favorite has to be the work bench, I have no clue where it came from...any clues?....it did have a spotlight moulded to the top, and it looked very unrealistic so I shaved it off. My plans are to include it in my MRC Texaco station. I also really like the face mask.... dont know where this came from either.

I'm going to give this a shot, I have nothing to loose. I've just not been very successful in my prio attempts. I;ll keep you posted.

Bill, Thanks for clear explanation, I'm trying to learn some new skills.

Great work Drew, as usual, you've captured the essence of this car, I would recognize it as Garlets car even without the decals. thanks for posting.

Thanks for info ordered a replacemant .
