  1. What's the closest 1/24 0r 1/25 engine to a 1962 Olds 394? Is there a resin version?
  2. I might check it out. Only looks like a 2 hour drive at most.
  3. I wouldn't mind seeing a '68 and '69 LeMans front end. I wouldn't mind having a go at the '70 conversion. I'll be waiting! '71 and '72 were available from Missing Link not too long ago.
  4. It's getting warm again, so time to get back to this. Got some external painting done. Color is Tamiya Champagne. I think the "W" looks off, but it's correct for the period. Still bugs me a little, though.
  5. Thank you everyone for your kind words. I really appreciate it!
  6. That's one nice looking car!
  7. It just hit the market. I'm not sure of how they'll choose to market it.
  8. I've been working on completing this master for several years, and it's finally in production. These are being cast by Missing Link Resin. I built one to see how it would go together. The donor kit is the 1976 Torino. Like any resin kit, I had to sand parts here and there, but it really went together without too much drama. I used the Torino engine because with all the accessories I chose to add, you can hardly see it. Several people on this board helped me get this to the finish line. I hope you feel free to add to the thread and take a bow. As I said before, this is my last (and probably best) master. 3D printing and age have taken their toll.
  9. Screwed up the quote. Your answer is right above.
  10. Yes. It will be similar to what I did with an earlier Dodge camper project.
  11. I have one last Motor City Resin Econoline. The other two are pictured below. The 3rd unit wasn't complete, as I had used some body parts to make the sliding door red van. I decided to make a camper out of the last one, and thought I'd share what I have so far. I only had two external shots of the camper, but luckily they showed both sides. It's been pretty trouble-free so far, we'll see how it goes. I think this is an old Shasta camper. The camper sides are .060 styrene with evergreen (.015 x .080) strips.
  12. Looking forward to seeing this progress. I should have sanded off the "Scottsdale" on the master, but it was so well done.
  13. My apologies. Missing Link is kawifreek@msn.com
  14. Thank you for the kind words. My front axles are made to take the weight. The cab is not resin. It's scratchbuilt. See:
  15. Kevin Lutz will be selling these thru Missing Link Resin (probably on eBay or some other avenue). I'm building mine currently. There are no plated parts, but mine are currently with the Spotlight service. I plan to bring it to the spring Detroit show ( The DAAM show). Here's what I've got so far... Hard to believe this multi-year project is finally out there.
  16. That looks great! You did a real nice job on it. It's very gratifying to see one of them built.
  17. Chevy Inline 6 "Turbo Thrift" model engine resin 3D printed 1/25 1/24 | eBay
  18. I mastered a 1968 Chevrolet 4 door sedan based on the Supernatural '67 Impala. I had a run of them cast and sold them on eBay some time ago but hadn't actually built one. Finally got around to it and thought I'd share the results. The engine is 3D printed (bought from eBay), and I added separate door handles from the '66 Chevelle wagon. Color is Butternut Yellow touchup paint. Note: There was no "250" badge for the front fender marker light. I should have sanded off the displacement badge, but didn't catch the error until the car was painted. What are you going to do? I went ahead and made a fictitious "250" badge.
  19. Never mind. I found one. Thank you!
  20. Which issue? All of them?
  21. If anyone has a Revell 1966 Chevelle wagon, and intends to shave the handles, I could use a set or two of the door handles (which are separate parts) for a project. Thanks!
