Don, Didn't Hurst make an automatic shifter with 3 shifters? I think it was called "Lightning Rods" or some such thing. I do remember them in the last 442's built.

I remember readin in Hot Rod, back in the day, where some nut ACTUALLY drove one in his STREET car!!! Of course it was all Pro'd out kinda Rick Dobbertin style, but it showd a pic of him DRIVEIN it to the strip, racein, an comein home!

Guys, I got mine last week, and they're PERFECT!!! NO flaws whatsoever! These things look GREAT! I got both the Street size, an the Pro Stock size too. BOTH sets were OUTSTANDING!!! VERY good product for the price, DEFINATELY worth it!!!!

I remember roll down quarter glass bein an option on 68/69 Road Runners.

Cesar, First of all, DON'T worry about your english! It's better than MINE! Second, You are a GREAT addition to our O'Hana! It's guys like yourself that REALLY show your love of the hobby by posting pics of HOW you did it! You save those of us who can't think in abstract just HOW it's SUPPOSED to look! It shows how you can just scale down the 1:1 stuff and go for it! THIS is how this forum is SUPPOSED to work, guys sharein their secrets/tricks because they LOVE the hobby!!!! THANK YOU, Brother!

Yeah, i saw that too Harry! But what the heck, I had already voted on it, so I WAS RIGHT!!! First time in a coupla tries that I finally hit it right! Cool!!!

Yeah, yer right Matt. But hey, at least I don't! i may growl a bit, but I'm a HAPPY lil ol doggie!!!

Since I don't know watcher talkin about, I won't ask! But WELCOME to the Forum! If ya wanna learn ,show , know and talk models, you've come to the RIGHT PLACE!!! No Drama, jus ask yo Mama!!!

Does anyone cast an ACCURATE 401 for that lil rascal?? THAT would make for a fun ride!!!!

Yeah, that's a good question. But you know the old saying, "If you can't say something......" Well, i DON'T see any sense in publicly negatively criticing ANYONES work, Lord knows I wasn't perfect when I started! Not all that great now! But if someone DOES do a nice job, like those models shown by our new member Cesar, Oh heck yeah, I'll give him credit, cause it's DUE! Those are NICE builds. I like them and I'm more than happy to let him know! He's earned it!

I gotta agree with Jim, Cesar, they are some VERY tasty builds, Definately like 'em ALL!!!

Cesar, That little Cuda is BEAUTIFUL!!! What a NICE CLEAN BUILD,Brother!!! I REALLY LIKE IT! It came out GREAT!!!!

WELCOME BACK, Anthony! 30 years???!!! Yeesh, things REALLY gonna freak you out!!! ALOT has happened in the meantime! You've come to the right place! If one of THESE guys can't help you, you probably need ANOTHER hobby! But really, just join in an get ta know everyone! We don't bite

Ceasar, This is some of the most delicate homemade detailing I've seen in a LONG time!(Tx Rat get's pretty extreme too!) It LOOKS GREAT and it functions TOO??? How COOL is that? I LOVE this kinda stuff, And I REALLY appericiate your SHARING it with us! THANKS!!!!

Don't be shy,Joakim! Go head an post those WIP pics of your Christine, I think it looks pretty good from what we can see!

ALWAYS thought the 69 Charger was the MOST beautiful design of ALL the late 60's cars, BAR NONE! It looked like it was goin a 1,000 miles an hour just PARKED! I had one, the PRETTIEST car I EVER owned! I still have two original unbuilt MPC kits downstairs, an let me tell you, they CAN'T hold a candle to Revell's version! The Technology has come SO far that it's not really fair to compare them, except for their scale fidelity. I was REAL dissapointed with the ORIGINAL Dukes release because of the Daytona rear window. So I just modded it into the proper shape. But I made ANOTHER one into a Charger 500 before there was ever a kit of it. Couldn't do too much with it as it came, so might as well convert it into something that it COULD be used for! Won't bother with this one, as i just get the Revell kits of the 68/9 Chargers anymore. Still like that style, always will.

Low an Lean,Marco, THAT'S what it's all about! Nice cruzer!!!!

A 462 Poncho would impress a HEMI!!!

OOOOO, That sounds SOOOO GOOOOD!!! Yeah, you can bet I'll get at least two, one to convert into a Grand Am, and one to do the LAST GTO! To ME the Can-Am SHOULD have been a GTO.

Yeah, Mark, your right about NOT countin yer chickens.... But I've purchased models from Ron, an I've had the pleasure of meeting him,too, an he SEEMED like a good straight up kinda guy, so I'm just assumeing he'll be true to his word and it'll be comeing soon. At least within the comeing year.(I HOPE,I HOPE!!!)

Real.

Got mine last Friday, (while my comp was down) and I thought it was a GREAT issue! AND it came in PERFECT condition, for the 2nd month in a row!!! who knows, now that I'm gettin it in undamaged condition, I don't really care anymore if it's late, at least I'm STILL getting it and it's readable, no repairs nessecary, so heck, I'm happy!!!

Gare, it LOOKS like you could repro the cab by just widening the fenders. But I don't know the little intracasies of trucks. Maybe you could use the chassis from the old AMT flip cab work/delivery truck, or the U.S.Postal System tractor an trailer.

Didn't the 67 Vette have the reverse light there? Just mount the 3rd BL there. Duhhhh jus like Harry DID!!!

Yeah, them furds IS ugly, but the yellow vette with the BLOCK behind the left rear wheel is pathetic!! Gotta semi nice lookin car like that, an you CAN'T fix the Parkin brake??? THAT'S jus LAZY!!!!
