I really like this. Very inspiring! Beautiful rod!

MCW Automotive Finishes has fenderwell headers from the old Johan '64 polara cast. I ordered 3 sets today!

Anyone here from So. central Texas. Or even Houston or Austin?

There is (was?) a good one in Gladstone on N. Oak across from Denny's. I've been in TX. 2 yrs. but that was the best one I knew of. Hobby Town ? maybe.

That's the way I would go. It would add realism.

Definitely a 3. Mostly '60s street machines, but I have pickups I'm working on as well as a couple radical customs. I've also been customizing 1/24 Maisto Harleys the last couple weeks. I have a couple factory stocks in planning, which oddly enough have been the hardest to plan & find parts for! The only thing I'm narrow-minded about is scale. ONLY 1/25 for me. The Harleys work because the motors appear a little small anyway.

Modelhaus & Resin Realm both offer 4-door Impala kits.

This is the doings of a true craftsman!

Tim, you have my attention!!!

Not trying to hijack here, but I have the same problem(painting outside, arghh). What is a tack rag?

Awesome cars everyone! I've been considering the Valiant to fill out my Mopar collection. Like what you've done with it!

Excellent job! Very cool conversion anyone should be proud to display.

Gotta respect a man with a plan!

I recently bought a built-up '63 Fury with a reel to reel tape deck and portable TV in it.

I love out-of-the-ordinary. These look Extraordinary!!!! Please keep them going!

SOOOOOOOSWEEEEEET!!!!!!

You did yourself proud, Scott! Cool looking racecar. You're well on your way to a beautiful Petty collection.

The 'Bolt is looking mean & nasty! perfect stance. Great color. Nice BMF job.

In the case of the dune buggy, I think it was the cost. You could build a custom convertible "sportscar" on the cheap. I use the term sportscar very loosely here, but in time, there were some amazing things that could be done with a VW engine to "soup it up". They just oozed Beach, bikinis, & good times!

It's 81` now & yesterday it was 78`. I'm in So TX now, but originally from KCMO. 80` made me wanna do stuff outside. The weather made me do it!

I made a VERY inappropriate post last eve. I thought I was being humorous. I missed BIG time. I realized after re-reading it, it sounded instigating Not my intent! Luckily for me it was deleted quickly. Thanks Harry!.. & sorry everyone that was offended!

I will try. Have to travel 140 (round trip) miles just to get to the LHS.

Great job on 1 of my favorite kits.

Hey Corvair Jim. I'd like to take a spin in it when it's ready!

You're like Pavlov....& I'm a dog! Nice...Beautiful paint!
