  1. I think a good portion of the 1960 annauls had an opening hood. And am pretty sure all the 61s did The only square bird i have is a 59 convertible builtup
  2. Tuned in. I have a super clean convertible on the very short list
  3. Love them both. And would REALLY like to have or (or both ) in 1.25th scale
  4. Whiich amt kit (if any ) best replicate this car
  5. Ive seen tbis car with the 2 different hoods and just assumed they were 2 seperate cars. An A12 car and a hemi car....????
  6. sounds like them. didnt see them on there ebay store listing either I have a set and they are NICE
  7. what do you use to glue it in place ? Just an FYI, but I'm not 100% positive ( not completely familiar with the early 60s full size mopar body styles. But I think the well liner was a flexible black vinyl.
  8. Nope and another nope. Same goes for another 55 Chev to
  9. blue streaks on 1964s thru 1966s Red lines 1st appeared in 1967s on mopars at least. Not sure about other makes
  10. 1966 on C bodies. 1967 on B bodies. Both all chrome. ....trim ring style appearded in 1969
  11. I painted a lindberg caravan several years ago.using a mopar brand spray touch up pearl white I dont remember the primer brand. But nothing i did kept it from being pink once dry
  12. Isnt the revell challenger chassis 1/24th scale
  13. i reconize a few in that chome line up. 69 coronet 65 or 66 fury Maybe 68 fury or is it 67 ?
  14. If i like the build...I'll make a comment irregardless of how well its built.
  15. for some reason.i thought there was a 15" and an 18" runner ......can't remember ever hearing about a 30"
  16. i think the seat pattern is different between 66 and 67. Also. 1966 used blue pinstripe tires. 67 used redlines
  17. the 40s cars typically aren't my thing....... But WOW. I really like this one a lot and I think I'll just have to get one for myself .
  18. Steve, Which aftermarket tires do you use. I recently picked up some of the AMT parts pack whitewall tire sets. and they are hollow. With the design of the old annuals simple wheels . Have you run into any fitment issues using this combination ?
  19. From 1962s 300H, the fins were gone, as was the letter series' unique place in the Chrysler lineup; there was now a whole Chrysler 300 Sport Series (which included a four-door hardtop along with a two-door hardtop and convertible), along with the 300H. Externally there was little difference between the 300H and the 300 Sport Series (except for a "300H" badge on the driver's side of the trunk), and many of the 300H's features could be ordered as options on the other models. Under the hood of the 300H the cross ram engine became an option, and there was a return to the inline dual 4-barrel carb setup of the 300E as the base power plant. With a slight power boost and a 300 lb (140 kg) lighter body, the 300H was faster than the 300G, but the loss of exclusivity coupled with high prices made this the slowest-selling letter series year yet, with only 435 coupes and 135 convertibles sold.
  20. Agreed ,,,,I've done a couple late 50s annuals and the tires are hard as a rock. heat a bowl of water up and drop the tires in for few a few minutes,,works every time
  21. The newest ones I have are the 62's ( a Buick and a Bonneville.,,, ) Both are convertibles and both have the molded in lower A arms ). If that's what you wan to call them. Never went looking for the hardtop versions,,,so I got nuttin as far as differences
  22. So cool. I have the Johan version on the bench right now I am going with Tamiya TS23 to replicate Petty Blue and with a white interior
