Great looking paint color and finish. Like the OEM style appearance and not all Z-28's had the stripes anyway.

The drip moldings enhance the look of the roof.

The biggest challenge would be keeping it going straight and having a fresh change of BVD's waiting at the finish line.

Bunky Knudsen at GM sent Mickey Thompson 4- 389 cu in engines for his 1960 attempt at the record. These were modified by Mickey and his mechanics to a reported 414 cu in each. After bad track conditions where high speeds even proved fatal for one driver they didn't try again until Sept. of 1960 when they went 406.6 mph on a one-way run. On the return run needed to set the official record they had mechanical problems that caused one of the engines to over rev and damaged it to the point that they couldn't back up the speed for the record.

You're putting your model building skills to good use on your fo-Ferrari.

Like your build style and paint work.

Great looking paint finish and color. Like the disc brake detailing.

Great looking paint finish and clean body trim.

Another skirt design to consider would be the Mercury Cruiser Skirts from that era. These were a stock option on the '57 Mercury cars which is why they became known as Mercury cruiser Skirts.

Would this be classified by NHRA as a Funny Car, or an Altered?

I have a few that may work for you. #1 Monogram double kit #6367 '87 Olds Delta 88 & '90 Olds Cutlass with number 4 Kodak Film sponsorship. Drivers are Rick Wilson and Ernie Irvan. #2 Monogram kit #2779 '88 Olds number 83 Wynn's/K-Mart sponsorship. #3 AMT kit # 6819 Olds number 68 with Country Time drink sponsorship. These are all unopened and still factory sealed.

Beautiful looking finishes and very realistic looking. Reminds me how different it is to make a living today compared to then.

Great paint colors and finishes. Like all the trim detailing and the wire wheels.

Great looking paint finish. Good display of all the weapons.

Like the effect with the fabric, I'm going to have to remember that one.

Plastruct and Evergreen both offer various sizes of plastic in strips than can be used to simulate body trim. Try laying out your design using thin masking tape as a guide for the trim in the desired width. With the tape as a guide, you can glue your moldings either above or below the tape however it works best for your design. I have used Tamiya extra thin liquid cement; there are other brands that should work just as well. As an example:

Had the same problem here this spring. Just leave the feeder's empty for a week and then only put just a very little seed in to see if they return. Had to do this twice and the undesirable birds have seemed to move on.

Been great weather for the last three or four days with temps in the upper 70's and even getting to 80 one day and the winds have died down to single digit velocity from the near gale force winds we were having. But this is about to change tonight with heavy rain and winds returning. It is spring after all.

Amazing paint detailing, very realistic looking.

Great looking paint finish and body trim. The interior colors look good. Thank you for the heads up on the interior mounting issues.

Smooth looking paint finish and well detailed interior. Like the wheels.

I do all of the exterior body paint prep up to the point where it is ready for the final color coats of paint. I'll then mask off the window openings from the outside of the body and then spray the headline color. Allowing sufficient time for the headliner paint to dry I'll then mask off the headliner then paint the final body colors. What I have found it neater to touch up the headliner paint if needed than it would be to do touch up on the bodies final paint work.

Amazing body trim detailing and paint finishes.

Amazing chassis and interior detailing. The paint finish looking really smooth.

Beautiful paint finish and color. The white trim looks good with the matching interior. Like the engine detailing and the wheels.
