  1. Lucas decals were made a long,long time ago. They were pretty good at the time. If you decide to buy the decal from SMH ask them to send you a picture of the decal. Good Luck Mike Decals by Lucas Galpin Gasser II 56 Ford decal | eBay
  2. I finally got around to build it. The blue paint is touch up from my Mustang. I used Wicked Pearl White and mixed in some PearX Blue for the interior. The Firehawk tire decals are from Fireball. After much back and forth I decided to use the blue decals. Ed Sexton and the guys at Revell sure hit a homerun with this one. Mike
  3. Too KOOL for words
  4. I am looking for the 1969 Mustang CJ hood that I can use on the 1969 mustang Boss 302. Thanks Mike
  5. Thank you, guys. I completely forgot about the CJ. I am going over to the wanted section. Mike
  6. Does anyone make a Revell 1969 Boss 302 hood with the cut out for the Ram-Air hood scoop? There is a faint outline under the hood for a DIY cutout, but I don't want to screw the hood up. Mike
  7. Very Kool
  8. Very nice.
  9. Karl is right about the plug. The one that Micro-Mark sells looks like the one pictured here. I can't give you an opinion I don't have one. Good Luck Mike Compact Vacuum Forming Machine – Micro-Mark (micromark.com)
  10. Here is my arsenal of paint brushes
  11. The 327 was the go-to engine for most Gassers until the 426 Hemi became available. Mike
  12. I use a brush that is the same size as the part that I want to paint. I load up the brush with enough paint too paint the primed part with one stroke. Greg has the same size paint brushes that I use. Just buy the best ones that you can afford. Good Luck Mike
  13. Very nice
  14. Steve, I read on Google that stores that sell Gift Cards have been hacked. They look for Gift Cards that have been activated and still have a balance. Thanks Steve. Mike
  15. I have lived in my house for 17 years. I swear that the Hobby Lobby by my house has been selling the AMT 1968 Shelby GT 500 Mustang for 17 years now. I did buy one 10 years ago. Mike
  16. I would like to trade 1 of these Funny Cars for a 1971 Mustang Funny Car. Mike
  17. I received a couple of Visa Vanella Gift Cards for my birthday. I checked the balances before I tried to use them. A few of the vendors that I have bought from in the past with Gift Cards now, will not accept Gift Cards. I did buy what I needed from other vendors with no problem. Does anyone know why vendors won't take Gift Cards anymore? Mike
  18. I don't know how many cans of real pop you drank a day. Try to limit yourself to 1 or 2 a day. Good luck Mike
  19. Fantastic work I had problems with the grille, headlights, and taillights. Mike
  20. I have used watered down Black Acrylic Paint or Black Panel Liner to accentuate the numbers. Good Luck Mike
  21. I wish that photo was in color. The paint job may have been a masterpiece. I wonder how many race car bodies were by them. My favorite paint job is when Lace is used. Mike
  22. All of that is probably in the interior.
  23. I am reading about Ed Pink and his early years at the Bonniville Salt Flats , and I came across this photo of a Barris built Streamliner. The person in the wheelchair is Chet Herbert the man behind Herbert Cams. He never let Polio stop him. Mike
  24. Very nice build. Have you built any WW1 Bi-Wing Bombers? Mike
