Beautiful Duster Jim ! Love that green paint !

Great looking Wildcat , well done Tim !

I'm pleased to tell everyone that Resin Model Ranch contacted me today and I apologize to Ron Andrews for my earlier negative posts . While I've bought resin kits from several vendors this is my first time doing business with RMR and I was very impatient when there was no reply to my emails . I know better especially with supply issues and vendors being backed up with more orders than they can handle in a reasonable time frame .

What gets me is they tell you to email them to place an order then don't reply to any of them . Lousy customer service is one thing I can't stand , I've fired employees that repeatedly do such things . Are these guys in any way associated with Reliable Resin ?

Beautiful little wagon Rich ! These are great kits but adding the vertical bars to the rear window is a must , well done !

Beautiful Impala , your Dad does excellent work ! A small tip on photographing your models . . . hold the camera a little farther away and you won't have the blurry areas . All of the details will look better too .

The last email I sent used my gmail account . The website specifically says for orders to email "rmrmodels@gmail.com" so why would they not receive it ? Makes absolutely no sense to me . Maybe you can call and ask him to check his emails .

In 1968 a Pontiac dealer in Western New York did build one and presented it to the GM brass and tried to convince them to put it into production . GM said no way , but then introduced the GMC Sprint the very next year . They should have built the Pontiac .

This is really looking super nice Joe , excellent work ! Your paint and extra detailing are really making this one stand out . One thing you might take a look at is that "Floating Alternator" , it needs some kind of bracket . Nothing fancy just a strip of plastic on top from the alternator to the water pump is enough , put a couple of small bends in it and it will look factory .

That sounds a bit strange . Did you actually speak with him or did you email him ? I didn't see a phone # on the web site .

I've emailed them twice with no response . I understand they have cut back because of a backlog and listed everything as out of stock but the website says to email them with questions and new orders . Does any one know if they are still in business ?

Beautiful work so far John ! Interior , engine , and the body all look great ! Congrats on getting the foil done on the body . Guess it's just a matter of re-learning how we do things .

Lookin' good Johnny ! Always fun to replicate a car we actually owned in the past . Are those wheels from the Revell or MPC '67 Charger ?

Excellent work on the conversion ! I always wanted to try something like this but never have , glad to see you doing one . Love that red !!

Excellent builds Tim , thanks for sharing ! I had the Hawaiian years ago but never even opened it before I sold it . I need to take another look at both kits , they do look very nice .

Looks great to me ! These kits always build up into cool looking Corvettes , well done !

Sharp looking Vette , can't remember the last time I saw one of these built . . . nicely done ! I also read thru your WIP thread , some good info there Thanks !

My favorite FED ! I was given this autographed diecast by Jerry Clayton when I was working on his Cobra . Welcome to the forum and looking forward to seeing more of your build !

I remember attempting to build one of these back in the 70's and I failed miserably . Yours turned out excellent , no one would ever know the fitment issues you had ! Love that Brilliant Orange color too !

Definitely never seen one of these before . . . I think it's pretty cool looking ! The chassis looks nicely detailed and your paint has held up great . Thanks for posting !

Thanks Pappy !

Well done Michael , really clean little wagon !

Thanks Rusty ! I agree , basic modeling at it's best . Thanks Stephan ! Thanks Robert ! Opening the scoop is really all that it needs , don't bother with the headers they are too small to try drilling the ends .

Thanks Michael ! Thanks Alan ! Thanks much Bill !

This original has been unfinished for a couple of years because it was missing the headers , roll bar , and rear wheels/tires . Thanks to the Atlantis reissue I was able to complete it with some new parts , so it's not 100% original . I opened the scoop , filled the body seam and painted it with Tamiya French Blue , and was able to use the original decals . It's definitely a primitive kit by todays standards but it's part of modeling history and looks great on the shelf ! I have another Atlantis Fireball Dragster and plan on upgrading it with parts swaps from newer kits .
