Nope, It's the actual 1977 Model kit that I got in a trade deal
-
Built this one for the first time and going to be a Shell Gasoline tanker when I get the decal's for it. I have a Yellow F2674 S-Series that will be pulling it. I added a Measure rod( was a long Fire poker) spear end cut off and painted yellow. air lines are most likely in the wrong place but it's the first time doing airlines.

My grandmother next to last Pontiac that she had, her last Pontiac was an 82 J-2000. I really liked her 77 Pontiac though. the Pontiac arrowhead on the front need's to be cleaned up a tad but otherwise it's done.

Got this in a trade deal and since most of the parts are going for another project, I decided to Chop a old 66 Chevelle wagon up and use the parts to build THIS 68 Chevy. The project is stalled until july for body filler. I don't want to use testor's brand as It don't seem to work that well. updated photo

Still need's some paint work and bare metal foil work done.

I needed a 54 chevy for my 30 years of Chevrolet collection. Sadly revelle's 53/54 is missing some of the parts to make a "stock" copy. With that being said I then raided an old AMT 51 chevy. the 51 gave up some of the parts I needed to go on the 54, those parts are as follow's tires and rims, engine and the steering wheel. The decal's are from the Jo-Han Ambulance that I recently finished. I'll try and post a few more pictures but for now here are these two. This is a reissue kit I bought last week at Hobby lobby.

Well It is now about 99% done just some finishing of some small's but here are more pics.

Pictures of what the ambulance will look like on it's wheels, are just mockups.

I will not say how I got this kit but I am just happy I did finally get one after 30 years of trying. Here's the start of it . I went with Orange and white instead of either red or red and white. Last picture is what made me go with the colors.

a while back I was at a hobby shop that I used to go to weekly (when I lived in that town) And talked to the owner about the Force 440 cop car when we looked on line at a box closely the side view looked like roscoe's cop car but as a two door. So does anyone know if the molds were changed to the 4 dr. or what because I don't think force 440 has ever been reissued.

STOCK. I like the factory stock look for my cars. not to much into the custom cars.

Attention Fellow Model Builders! If you go to youtube you can watch a video of the 59 Chevrolet being produced from clay to the real car's being built at the factory. then theres a video that show's pictures that life magazine took at a Chevrolet factory in 1959 there you will see that the Exhaust manifolds were painted red along with the engine. and the 6 cly exhaust manifolds were painted blue along with the engine. It's a must for anyone who want's to build a strait from the factory car.

I'd like to take this time to thank JIMMY FLINTSTONE for doing this body! I am glad that he and people like Modelhaus are doing these castings. I could only wish that the Model companies would do research into these companies and see what sell's and put out what the modelers really want not the same old tired kit's from the mid 70's and 80's. Thank you all who have read this post and to those who said they like what I am doing with it.

Steve, Jimmy makes them and sell's them on his own site and it run's 18.00 ! I recommend it highly. I bought the 58 and a57 ford 4dr wagon and he sent me a free figure of a sexy woman holding a welders helmet and a drop light. her overhauls are off down to below her butt.

I wish but its my cell phone camara.

Resin body by Jimmy Flintstone only bad area is the engine room as the resin is pretty thick close to the radiator on the engine bay. and the right side head light area has to be trimed well so the light crome will fit. Other than these two minor problems It's a decent resin body.

AND DIANA SHROE WOULD SING: SEE THE U.S.A. IN A CHEVROLET. CAR IS COMPLETE WITH FACTORY RED PAINTED EXHAUST MANIFOLDS.

NO JOKE IT"S BEEN DONE . AND IN 2048 IT WILL BE DUG UP, JUST LIKE THE 57 . THE SAME CONTEST OF GUESS THE POPULATION. I got the car wrong IT'S A PROWLER NOT A PT LOSER.

And yet they went and did the same thing again with a Prowler not one mistake but Two?

Basic trim level GTO. I find that the testor's Pontiac engine blue is not the right shade, So I mixed testors turquoise bottle paint with a few drops of testors steel silver to get as close to Pontiac engine blue as I could. the results of the engine color I think is dead on.( my grand mother had a 66 Pontiac tempest with the OHC 6 and this was the engines color. I got the GTO from a trade deal with Impcon. as well as the 67 Impala kit. The 77 Pointaic Ventura will be shown on here when it get completed.

It was The customized one but I went stock the rims and steering wheel are from the 66 impala kit. It's 99.9 % done just needs the headlights glued in but I don't have the glue yet for that.

The fact that Fox sports 1 Destroyed speed channel and Now fox has hard to read racing leader box it was better when they had the ticker type leader box streaming at the top of the screen. That small white print box they use now is just to darn small and you can't read it. Having 200 + channels on t.v. and nothing and I do mean Nothing decent to watch. T.V. land was good until they started making their own "new show's" CMT(country music Televison) No real music anymore there. Just like the nashville network went then changed to spike. Court tv became True T.V. I guess they can't help them selves from changing into well you all know.

I know not everyone here likes the Corvette, but being a American sports car that can beat some of the most pricey sports cars made it is sad that 3 or for Corvettes that went into the sink hole are a total loss. Would peoples opinion be the same If god forbid that something like a tornado took out the Ford museum? Or the Auburn Duesenberg Cord Museum? love them or hate them they are part of our American history. it's a sad fate for those corvettes because they are really no different than any historical piece . They were being preserved for our children's children and beyond. Yes I know there are many corvette's around but some in the museum were just about one of a kind cars.
