Looks good ! I grafted the nose onto mine for a smooth look but elected not to mess with the rear window.

Is that one of the German Bug Kits? Looking good so far.

I don't care if it rains or freezes, long as I got my plastic Jesus settin' on the dash board of my car Comes in a color pink and pleasant, glows in the dark 'cause its irridescent, take it with you when you travel far. ))))))))))))))))))))))))))

I know, I know I already have been outbid.

Sell me the wheels and tires )))) Then do it up as a Monster-Truck Charger, Hill-Billy the hell out of it. I bought a 1 16th Model T for $7 the other day that will eventually get that treatment.

I love these cars! I remember my favorite of all of my Dad's unmarked cars, a 77 Fury, a mean patrol car. I also remember that every patrol car I ever saw (carbed ones obviously) had the Air Cleaner lid flipped over. I did the same thing with my cars later in life:) I agree, a 44o w/ athermoquad makes an awosome sound. In 1989 I was living in California and bought a 77 Monaco that used to be on the Simon & Simon show at Universal Studios for $500. 440, former CHP car, I loved it, wish I'd never sold it. I've built numerous versions of these cars and I use the AMT Road Runner/GTX frames, I just move the front clip forward a hair. Your build looks great, can't wait to see it.

AWESOME STUFF, I LOVE ALL OF THEM !!!!!

I get stuff from Smoky Mountain Hobbies from time to time. I live in Seymour, kinda mid way betwixt Knoxville and Sevierville.

Beautiful paint job. I wish you'd have kept the steel wheels though ))))))))

I can't find the stuff anywhere. Kroger, $ General, Lowes, no dice. Walmart maybe?

As an aside, the Lowes stuff is Galaxy Blue Colorshift item #12742. Looking forward to your next pics Longbob, cool thread!

Yeah, go to Hobby Lobby's webist and download the monthly 40% off (sometimes more) coupon and get yourself a few of them for $15 or so. Geordie, quick stalling and get back to work! Happy Merry Christmas back to you.

Very nice!

Love the movie and the book too. Awesome job on the model! Very pretty, great paint. Needs a Hemi though I've always wanted to do a Christine car I'll get around to it eventually. I really liked the Christine Pro Mod model too, gotta find me another one to do.

I used that Duolicolor spray "system" on one of my 1 16th Kenworth Aerodynes, it turned out nice but that paint is pretty expensive if I recall. The color shifts from purple to green (I have a pic of the truck but with the flash it just looks totally green metallic). Lowes has some spray cans of similar stuff that is going non-stock in a lot of stores and has been reduced from somewhere around $13 a can to half price or whatever the store wants to mark them down for. I got several cans the other day for $5 each. They come in a gold to green shift or a purple to blue shift (I like the latter a lot, it's going on my 1 16th Daytona conversion). I will get the name and post it and maybe even the item numbers. Lowes is pretty funny with reduced stuff. If you ask for a Department Manager and shoot them a price, you'll normally do just fine.

Awesome, thanks for the video! I was just about to search back through the post to see about if you can put the decals on afterwards, then re-coat it and sure enough, you answered that too Thank you again, as soon as I can get a body ready I'm gonna try it.

Great job!

LOVE IT! Awesome job!

Cool job! Nick: Yes, all Superbirds had vinyl tops.

Beautimous.

That stinks. I'm waiting on some led's to arrive so I can start wiring up one of my Po-Leece projects, you've inspired me Hope you don't run into any more snags.

I just got some wheels in the mail. They look fantastic! If you're looking for some Po-Leece wheels Futurabat is your guy.

Looks great. To say these kits are rough would be an understatement but still, when you have somebody who can do the kind of work you do, well, enough said Anybody got a spare aircleaner from one othese kits they wanna get rid of? I need me one.

Lordy I wish you'd do these in 1/16th. I love those Po-Leece wheels and dog dishes! I actually had a set of weld wheels on my 1:1 69 Roadrunner, sold them off and put on some Po-Po wheels, trim rings, & dog-dishes. The rears were widened a bit, the caps covered the 3" wheel studs, and the trim rings covered up the bead locking screws. Along with the 383 badges on the AirGrabber "vents" it made quite a sleeper. I really would love to see these in the bigger scale but I sure wouldn't mind a set or two in the little scale for a Yohan/AMT 69 RR and a Cuda I have laying around. Where can I get me some Mr. Bat?

The front fenders are not configured as the stock versions, they are opened up like a stock car wheelwell. Some folks (more talented than I) fix them to make them look more correct. Nice build.
