I've owned several radio delete cars. '78 ultra-plain jane Fairmont: '65 Ranchero (still have it) And my Comet wagon was one, but I added one to chrome up the dash a bit more. A model radio delete car would be cool, and you wouldn't have to drill the fender for an antenna.

Thanks Andy.

I haven't built the kit yet, but I did build a 1:1 around 15 years ago. The kit looks pretty good to me.

Dominick, The first one materialized today, but none of the others. I'm on Firefox, I opened the thread on Chrome, same story. All other pics on all other threads load immediately. Very confusing. -Mike

Don't know if it's been posted here, but I happened across this site of some pretty imaginative photoshops of new and older cars turned into alternative body styles, woodie wagons, etc. Potential projects? http://artandcolourcars.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html -MJS

The pictures just aren't opening up for me.

Looks more like an F131.

Here's the actual version. I think you'll agree that it's smack-worthy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=099douUPsOE#t=35

There were no leaf springs to contain the rear axle, so it was probably a four link. Possibilities? Grade nothing bolts, bad setup with bolts in single shear, or bolts run through with loose or likely no nuts at all. Then Dart dude floors it, and all Dana breaks loose.

Looks great. I restored a glue bomb about 25 years ago, maroon but very similar looking. -MJS

That's why there's not much graffiti in AZ.

Because the worst that humanity has to offer has to shop somewhere. I go there as little as possible, but when I do, it's always a stunning display.

One of the bonafide Greats. I saw him perform in The Big Easy in '90. -MJS

Soooo nice... -MJS

Super clean build, and you've nailed the ivory color. -MJS

Great juxtaposition of classic and contemporary styles, and who doesn't love a clean flame job. Great Deuce all around. -MJS

Cute car, Jonathan. clean, and love the color. -MJS

Wow. I saw that movie when it was released in the theater, I took my girlfriend. She hated it, it was "Too violent and stuff". I thought it was great, except for the hammy final scene. Amazingly, I never realized that the Corvette had Ecklers style front flares, but no rear flares, and I forgot about the C4 rear clip blended in. This model looks great and sits right, one of the better movie cars I've seen in scale. Excellent job. -MJS

Great work! Very tasteful!

Very nice work. Ages ago, I built the metal body version of this kit. -MJS

Very nice build, and a nice color combo not often seen on a '57.

Hey Roger, any follow up on that Valspar? I just found out what everyone else did, this stuff is practically nonexistent, unless you want to pay way too much/can and wait for shipping. I need an available alternative. -Mike
