Great looking color combination with the interior. The 8 lug wheels are nicely detailed. Like this kit and agree with you, it does take some finessing here and there in assembly.

Great looking paint color and finish with lots of metallic in it. Like the OEM look with the white walls and painted hub caps.

Great looking paint work.

Beautiful looking paint finish and color. About the smoothest looking old Plymouth body, I can remember seeing. Nice looking chopped top and the wheels and tires look perfect. Like the stance.

This may be a pipe dream, but I think one or more of the model companies could offer body styles from the mid '50's thru the '70's of some of the upscale GM line like Pont., Olds, Buick, Ford's Mercury and MoPar's, Dodge and Plymouths.

Empi used to run "I/Gas" class and would carry the front wheels past the starting tree. Just looked on Google and they have a lot of current clips of their race cars and others. Seems the Bug popularity is as big or maybe even bigger than in the '60's both here and Europe where Empi even sponsors events.

You might Google "Empi Inch Pincher" and see what you can find. Empi was, and may still be, a major company involved with just about anything that has to do with Volkswagen. They were based out of riverside California in the 1960's and beyond. The "Inch Pincher" was the name of their Type 1 VW that they drag raced. This should offer some references to building a car with a VW engine.

Wonder what the RPM was when the driver popped the clutch?

I still enjoy watching even their reruns on TV. The show has a great energy with no wrench throwing or drama like so many others. They both look like they're very happy and loving people. I like how they show what all they are doing in their builds and they're not full of themselves.

Great looking body work and paint finish. Remember a local Cadillac dealer that had one sit on the lot for over a year and couldn't sell it back then. I'm sure in some markets people would grab this in a heartbeat.

Great looking '32. Like the subdued looking colors and the well detailed body lines.

Great looking color and finish. The factory ground effects usually don't look this good on real cars or models, the front end especially look good to me here. Like the interior and engine detailing.

Beautiful color and finish. The wood graining looks very realistic, even on the inside of the roof. Hard to even see on the outside, but you know it's there. Interior looks great and like the warmed-over Flat Head.

A '48 Chevrolet Galaxie kit and a Moebius Hudson.

Like the different body color. With a car like this it can help to blend into traffic and not be noticed. Nice wheels and stance.

Beautiful looking color and finish. Makes you wish Chevrolet had thought of this as an option. Really clean looking trim and engine room.

Great looking color and finish. Like the engine work and the stance.

I bought a Screen Repair Kit from ACE Hardware that had 5 - 3 x 3 in. screens to repair tears in a window or door screen. My use was for a grill and hood scoop openings on a '68 Firebird. Pretty inexpensive and maybe even a lifetime supply.

While one would think that the blue colored stinger would be correct on a black Corvette with a blue interior. However, Chevrolet would allow a dealer to order what they called non compatible color combinations if they initialed the order form since this was all done on paper at that time.

In this case I used Plastruct #90881 1.5 mm half round stock. Nothing against Evergreen, but these are more available for me. I have also used their #90882 2.o mm and #90879 .8 mm depending on what sort of trim I'm trying to replicate. This model was based on a car in Car Kulture DeLuxe and I used those photos to position the side chrome.

Great looking color and paint finish. Like the stance and the wheel and tire package.

Beautiful looking paint finish and plow. Great engine and trim detailing. Looks almost to pretty to be a real work truck.

The photos almost look like a real Broncho. You seem to have a higher opinion of the new Broncho than many, but they still sell for over MSRP if you want one so there is that. The paint finish and body details look very realistic as does the snowplow. Great background info, is it all true?

Beautiful looking color and paint finish. Like the injectors as well.

I agree with you about the color. The Onterio Orange looked good, but not Hugger Orange good. Like the interior and engine/chassis detailing.
