38 Crush

I hope the 59 Impala is the hardtop with all the custom options .I loved that kit

Will the frame and floor in the Revell kit fit the AMT kit? and are any of the other parts that were mentioned interchangeable to make one detailed kit?

Sorry it's motorheadminiatures.net. Messed up again !!!

Go to motorheadminitures.com. Lots of 50-60 figures and other things

I agree with you Casey. Those on the Alternomad are the best bet and easily modified. Glad I listened in I have to do the same on my 38 I'm building.

Thanks guys, picked a Pacer X up today. I have to build a replica of an engine I've never seen !! Geeze I love modeling !!Anybody know what color they are or were?

The only ones I know of that comes close are the ones in the Revell 32 Ford coupe, but they have rough spokes and have to be sanded and either rechromed or Alclad painted. No one that I know of make a good set of torque thrust 2's with a 15" diameter

Anyone know where I might get an AMC straight 6, either from a kit or resin that would fit in the daisy duke CJ5 Jeep. Sorry, building a replica

I agree with Skip, still waiting on the November issue

Sorry to hear about your dilemma Jason. If you can travel some there is a great club in Coburg, OR just north of Eugene. I think It's only a couple of hours away.Try this http://www.laneautomodelers.org/index.html or contact stan at 541 515 5745 for more info.

We'll unless I read the box wrong the new ranchero comes with a caddy engine ! Also gas cans, bumper jack custom roof, Fender skirts plus much more!!

Maybe I'll see you in Albany ! January is a bad month for travel as I've got to come over the Cascades on 20. It will depend on the weather. However, as I said, I love Trophy Girls. At that show, do they ware coats !!!

Hey Mike ! I was there at OSSM, had a great time ! and I thought it was a great show. I got to see a lot of old friends. At what show was the above picture taken? I haven't been to a show lately with a Trophy Girl !! Harold

Does anyone know where I can get Diamond Plate in 1/25-1/24 scale. Found it a couple of times but they say Out Of Stock !! Can't use that !!!

Well it did snow here today. Great weather for a swim !!!

Drop a resin body one time in a sink while sanding, You'll find out the difference. Trust me !!!

Welcome Pat ! Are you a long time Oregonion ? I live in Bend but get to the Porland area alot. There's a show coming up in Clackamas November 2nd. Hope to see you there. Let me know if you need any info.

Boy I want to thank all you guy for your input. It really helps to be in and around a bunch of knowledgeable people to call on thanks again. I building a replica for a friend of a custom '48 Plymouth 6 passenger coupe. the real car has been widened 3 1/2 inches all the way from stem to stern frenched headlights, custom tailights with the boat image in the lenses. Painted candy metalic blue and sits on a' 76 Monte Carlo frame,. plus much more. a It's great 50's custom of a rarely seen car. Again, thanks a ton !!

Can anyone out there tell me what kits have a 383 Mopar engine? Everything I come up with has a hemi or a 426.

I have two of the Panel kits and also the cabrolet I also built an R&R resin 34 chev chopped coupe for a friend of mine some time back. It turned out alright but the resin was warped badly and the outside of the body extended clear out to the edge of the fenders. I also had to unchop the roof as the kit came chopped. What a challenge. Don't think I want to do it again.

You got it Chuck ! Right now I know of several people just waiting to get there hands on one or more. I sure hope Galaxie reissues the Aero again. It was one of the best kits I ever built. But.....I still want a '40.

Yea, I have both kits your talking about but I would really like to have an acurate one, especially a coupe or 2dr sedan. really dig street rods.
