  1. Christian, folks say the 70 and 71 Revellogram Cudas are misproportioned in the rear quarterpanel/windsail area(C-pillar). I usually don't buy 24th kits so I can't honestly tell ya if there is, but the 70 AAR cuda sure looks off in that area. I personally think the original MPC 70,71 Cudas were much better looking. More like the real thing. But unfortunately, those rascals are kinda expensive. The JoHan 71 Sox&Martin Cuda is pretty nice too, but it can only be built in Drag form.Hth.
  2. Hey, don't forget the Escalade! It's Deeeeetroys ride of choice.!!!!!
  3. Dominic, i own a 95 Impala SS and i'm tellin ya brother, it looks pretty good to me. But that's actually a 94 Impala. The 95 and 96 Impalas have the mirrors located in the front door lower forward window area, only the 94 has those mirrors. 94/95 are the only ones with the column shifter too. The 96 has a console mounted shifter. Yours came out REAL nice! I like it!
  4. WoW! Chris, that really came out NICE! Looks weathered all right!. i agree, Tha Doc's gonna like this one!

  8. I wanted one of these rascals for AGES, then I found the Revell Dunebuggy. Watta DRAG to find out it WASN'T a MANX kit, but a generic dunebuggy body. I found two built ups that I can use for ONE good one, but if them rascals is commin BACK, welp, they just became parts cars!!!! Gonna get one or two of the NEW ones!!!!

  20. Yeah, but bein named Kevlar, he SHOULDA been pretty tough! Didn't take it to heart,i guess. Poor kid.
  21. If you oil it properly, it SHOULD be a reddish color, as that is the color of the spray oil that K&N uses.I'd go with a deeper flat red if you need to color it.Hth.
  22. That is actually what it looks like overt on the EAST side of town, near Mack an St.Antione. They found my Impala SS onna street like that, only it DIDN'T have NO houses in a 4 block area!.The car ALSO din't have ANY peices of it left when they found it!Your Dio brings back SUCH pleasant memories!
