Beautiful , love that red !

Nice looking Bug and an excellent looking engine ! Very nice work .

Thanks guys ! This might be a slow moving build but I'll update when I can ! I've got dimensions on the beds and actually they are all pretty close in overall size just different shapes . The later model bed would be the best one to use but unfortunately in the modeling world it doesn't always work that way . The AMT '68 bed is on top and the '86 is the bottom one ( MPC is identical ) . I'm using the '68 and modifying the inner fenders and shape . I've got several Chevelle bodies and there are differences between them all . I chose to use the AMT/Model King '75 body because the hood to windshield shape looks the best . The roof and top of the doors ( nice handles ) are JoHan Oldsmobile and the nose is from an old MPC Laguna .

Very cool Ray, I love it ! And those wheels and tires look perfect on it ! I had a '65 2 dr sedan and remember it was a real sleeper .

Looks really nice Phil ! Great detailing and the paint looks great ! I think you're right about the wheels but I'm sure the younger guys will love 'em !

I've owned six El Caminos over the years and one of them was a '74 that I picked up as a wreck . After putting a '77 front clip on it and a fresh 350 it became my work truck for eight years . I always thought it was kind of ugly but it's size reminded me of my 1960 El Camino and it ended up being one of my favorites ! This is the best photo I have . It was still not painted when I sold it ! I've been thinking about doing this for a while , so last week I started chopping up bodies and putting something together . Here's where it's at so far !

Excellent work ! That's a really nice looking wagon .

Yep , can't say it any better than that !

Beautiful work Marty ! That's the way this car is supposed to look !

Love that color !

Oooo , that's purty ! I wouldn't care about the warpage either , I bet it looks great in your collection !

Beautiful work , and that lime paint is stunning !

Another real beauty ! I think the '61 was the prettiest of the early 60's Fords . Ditto on your trim , the BMF looks flawless !

Nice looking buggy Paul ! I had that kit as a kid , don't see them very often . Really ? He built the Manta Ray show car , Green Hornet's Black Beauty , The MonkeeMobile , and . . . Google him .

Looks like quite a project Jim , I'll definitely be watching ! I met Arlen Ness many years ago at a show and he's not nearly as wild as some of his builds are , he's just another guy that loves bikes ! I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with this . P.S. - Are they really called " Digger " style bikes ? I've never heard that before .

Great color choice and excellent detailing !

Very nicely done Jean , the perfect sleeper !

I'm quickly running out of words to describe your builds , so I'll just agree with Rich !

Beautiful ! You do very nice work , the paint and detailing are excellent . I like the colors too !

Squadron has them for $56 .

That is really nicely done Bruce ! Probably the cleanest , nicest example I've seen yet . And the paint and wood look perfect !

That's pretty awesome and an excellent conversion ! You definitely nailed the look with the wood and all of the trim work . The roof rack is pretty impressive as is the entire build , great work !

There's a lot of detail in this , impressive indeed ! A few more photos would be even better !

Thank you ! Thank you very much Jim ! The decals actually weren't as bad as I expected , but I've done enough for a while !
