Beautiful build. Great detail work on the boom and the bed. I like the hood decals ?

Very interesting looking builds. I spy some others in the back ground. Looks like you are making up for lost time on the build seen.

Is there anyway that Ebay would help you on this. Ya I know what was I thinking.

I'm not familiar with the Ebbro line. Are those Die Cast or Plastic ?

Looks great, I really like the wheels.

Beautiful build, I like the engine modifications, I have owned a few Ford Flat Heads in the past with 12'' to 18" Smittys and agree they have a very unique sound.

Beautiful interior. I agree with the others, you might think about removing the top just so you could show off the interior. And thank you to Bill for the link on how you create the steering wheel. I'll be using that trick in the future.

I'm admittedly not a big Green fan, but this looks great Very nice smooth finish and the lighter than OEM Ford dark Green shows the body lines well.

That's a great looking color. I think I have only seen 1 or 2 BMW's painted that color.

I have used TS-12 and it looks pretty close. I have used X-6 in the bottle but it is on the light side. As for ts-56 Brilliant Orange, it makes a nice light Orange body color but it is not like anything ever seen under the hood of a Chrysler product.

Great looking conversion. It's a wonder Revell didn't think of this. What all did you do with the interior and drive train ?

Beautiful build, and the color looks perfect.

The engine detailing is outstanding. The paint finish is great also.

First let me say that I applaud the state of Tennessee for the idea to do something about litter. Your model looks great also.

This is a great looking body style. I'm wondering about the openings in the sail panels ?

This will be interesting to watch. I have one of these in line to build, some day.

I like the idea of the Slant Six. Anyone can use a V-8. With the 6 you could use a Turbo or even go with a belt driven Super Charger be it a Roots or Centrifugal type.

I think you need to research individual models within the Plymouth model line up. It would seem that there is a difference between chrome or colored moldings depending on which model line you're looking at. It would seem that they were built both ways depending on which model you are replicating.

For the most part the basic kits that would be needed to build the SCCA / Trans Am over 2 liter cars are readily available. The Camaro bodies from '67 thru the second generation are well represented. Just use the induction from the Revell '69 Camaro Z28 kit. The Ford Mustang is also available in various year models and again minimal engine modifications. The Chrysler products are also available to a lesser degree and you would need a Chrysler small block to complete the look. The AMC Javelins would be the perfect car for someone to kit. The only ones I remember that may work are the older NASCAR kits that could be easily converted, but find one. I think there would be a small market for say a 2in1 or even a 3in1 kit. I would buy one. This sounds to me like something that Round 2 might do if they have the old molds. The Firebird? I personally would welcome a '69 Firebird, but would enough others share that felling to where it would be profitable ? One thing to remember with the Firebirds, they couldn't build a competitive 305 cu. in. engine from their existing engines at the time. The only really competitive Firebirds were the Canadian models. These were Firebirds built and sold in Canada. Canadian Firebirds often used the Chevrolet engine, and since the Chevrolet 302 could conceptually have been put in a Canadian Firebird that is how Pontiac got around that. And yes some teams got very creative and put Firebird sheet metal on their Camaros and said Yada Yada its a Canadian Firebird.

I think it looks very good. Even better since you have been away for a while. I guess it's like riding a bicycle, you just always have it.

Nice turnaround on the body. Good color.

Very nice paint job. This looks like a good kit, I like the wire wheels.

I would use Pete J's suggestion using the Super Glue. I had the same problem on a '66 Chevelle wagon that I converted into a two door wagon. Even with filler that went far beyond the original door lines they started to "shadow" after about a year. Very frustrating.

Beautiful build and quite an undertaking. I never knew of the Renault Dauphine as anything but a gutless econocar. Great back story on this build.

Very nice clean build. Great foil work, those wheel well moldings are a bear.
