From my recent parts trips 3 empty air boxes for the downstairs family room . I picked up for the most part just because I think there cool. Although I would like to get a 64 Lemans convertible builder for the stash someday.

I would vanish

Plan for some day later on to redo it as the Bobby Wood AFX drag car ,,,,someday much later on Steve, I have quite a parts wanted list for some of these old annuals . I've bought several pieces of the past 6 months or so . But it seems the more I buy, the more I need

I've built one start to finish in under 24 hours, then on the other side of the coin,,,,,,,. I've got projects that have been in the works for years

Some misc parts I needed for a few old annual's buildups I have. ( 1960 Lincoln tires and wheels with hubcaps, 1959 Impala tires wheels and hubcaps , as well as another decent builder original issue SMP 1959 Corvette I picked up a 90 % unbuilt 1962 Buick convertible,,,,,,,, while I was there On the same trip I picked up one of my ebay buys A decent builder Time Machine altered wheel base chevelle kit

Well done bro. I think it'll add that much more to the underhood of the car

WOW !!!!!!!

THIS would be in the top 5 ,,maybe even numero uno. 1958 Desoto Adventurer convertible

I wasn't aware the Fuel Injection was avail on a lowly 58 Plymouth Fury? I thought it was only avail on the top of the line models from Desoto and Chrysler ????????. Ps, I've seen ONE 58 Fuel injection car in person ( the resto was in process at the time ) . I thought it was a Chrysler 300 But for the life of me cant remember for sure so it may have been a Desoto ( its been nearly 30 years since I've seen it ) EDIT, just did some quick google work . The 58 Plymouth was avail with fuel injection but it was on a RB engine . The only Hemi car with fuel injection in 1958 was the 300D and I'm almost positive there was a fuel injected 300 in Louisville I looked at many years ago http://www.forwardlook.net/forums/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=19270

I think I just might have to get one of these

PS, the 440 magnum in 1968 B body cars was turquoise NOT street hemi orange ( same goes for the 383 HP engines in 1968)

Looks like the back panel of the seat is the same color as the vinyl front side Is that a chrome insert in the center of the rear seat ....what about the small molded emblem just below said insert ? Chrome i assume

Any thoughts to remove that half molded master cylinder form the firewall and replace it with a much more accurate piece, say from the Mobieus Satellite or something ?

1 - do the bucket seats have a chrome trim that goes around the back rest portion of the seat? ( across the top and down each side ) 2 - does the piece in the center of the grille remain with the grille if the hood is up, or does it go up with the hood ( aka attached to the hood )

When I do actually add that kind of detail. I wire them all in the correct firing order. It doesn't take any longer to do than not doing so

Not a replica of an actual car as far as I know. But looking at the pics I'll bet its loosely based on the Axiur car

correct...sort of. But there is at least 1 Daytona with a vinyl top (white top on a green hemi car) And two 500s with vinyl tops. One red hemi car and a Q5 turquoise 440 car. (both black tops)

1969 Plymouth GTX convertible.....followed pretty close by either a 1967 GTX conv...or a 1961 Chrysler 300 conv

Trashcan

Duh, I had stryene kit on my mind and completely forgot about the promo version note to self, ,,,,,,, have morning coffee before posting online

Johan made a 58 Cadillac kit ? 1st I've heard of this....my understanding is there 1st one was a 1959

When I went to install the wheel sin my stock whitewalls . I noticed the white stripes were not perfectly round around the perimeter of the wheel. So I ditched them and used the AMT parts pack tires instead

nice

I'm not going to use the blue glass or the custom stuff in mine

Essentially anything from about 1934 and older. Alfa Romeo , Talbot Lago , Figioni as some examples. ESPECIALLY this
