TooOld

This is a model of an El Camino I owned many years ago . It had a 283 / 4 speed and was painted Roman Red with the Impala trim . The model is a Revell '60 Impala with the roof and bed from the AMT '59 El Camino grafted on . I had to lengthen the bed about 1/4 " to line everything up , and modified the tailgate and rear bumper . I used the Revell chassis and modified it to show the bed floor and a new gas tank . The headers and exhaust were made from aluminum rod . The engine and tranny are from the revel '63 Impala . The tires are from Fireball Modelworks and I don't know where the Cragars came from , they were in my parts box . I tried to replicate everything just like it was , right down to the 1987 license plate !

Wow , this is a lot of stuff ! Thanks Stef !

Nicely done ! I really like it a lot !

Beautifully done ! I agree with the above comments . . . very classy !

Very , very nicely done ! Beautiful paint and great detailing every where . Congrats on a job well done !

Impressive is an understatement , that's some incredible fabricating in such a small size ! I would love to see some more of your work .

She's a real beauty ! Great choice of color and excellent details .

Great looking Prowler Jim ! Beautiful paint and the Hemi fits like a glove !

I'm just finishing a build using the set I ordered from you , they are beautiful ! I'll be ordering more soon !

I appreciate the help Bernard but in 5 days it will have been TWO MONTHS ! I don't think I want to be a member anymore .

That's a real beauty ! They should have built one like this in 1949 !

Here's some pics of Dean working on the Monkeemobile in his garage .

Great looking paint ! I think it's a cool little kit and a great stress reliever !

Great looking Cougar ! I had a couple of cars with rear tires like that , always liked the look !

I think you're looking for photo - etched blades that fit in an xacto handle . These are from Model Car Garage for about 10 bucks .

Rob , I measured the Line-o-tape I have and it's between .003 " and .004" thick . If you mean to use it as a pinstripe to separate two colors it works great ! It's flexible enough for curves but not too tight , similar to other tapes I've used . The one time I used it ( my '72 Ranchero ) , it stuck just fine and is still staying put . Maybe wrapping around a radiator hose is too small a diameter for it .

I spent the last couple of evenings doing the BMF . This is my fifth build using it and I'm getting the hang of it finally ! There is one piece I need to redo again but otherwise it's done . Now it's time to start putting everything together !

That's got to be the prettiest Cox Cheetah ever ! Great job Chris . Somebody should do this in resin ( besides HRM ) .

Sweet ! Very nicely done .

Really sharp looking ! I'm betting he'll like it !

I have one with the hex on it too and it came with 2 collets - 4 sizes . It will hold a strip of paper ( 0.003 " ) , I just tried it for fun !

Dang , those are gorgeous !

I was a single Dad raising my son and the next summer my girl friend moved in with us . Nuff said ,
