  1. Very, Very, nice
  2. I agree,, keep moving forward and try not to take it to seriously I tend to try not an over analize things to much. I want them accurate,,but within reason. If I can look in my case and see the vision i had in my mind , I'm good.
  3. Then just for good measure,,maybe one of each of these
  4. Most of the new go fast stuff doesnt do much for me. I like style and character. On top of my list would be this actual car
  5. The only Hemi with the dist in the front is the 426 . And other than its a ' Hemi ' it shares nothing with any of the earlier Hemi engines Ps, all the Hemis were staggered cylinder heads,,, regardless of year or size. pss, the engine in the Borsch Charger AA/FC kit is a 426 based, The engine in the Borsh AA fuel altered is a 392 based
  6. There all over priced junk. send them all to me so I can dispose of them properly
  7. Are all the graphics on this decals ? I sure hope so.....I want one
  8. Seats are unique to a coronet year by year
  9. Probably the most accurate on the bodies. The interiors can leave a bit to be desired. Chassis leave a lot to be desired. But for the most part price is due to subject matter.
  10. http://www.round2models.com/models/mpc http://www.round2models.com/models/amt http://www.round2models.com/models/lindberg http://www.round2models.com/models/polar-lights
  11. This is just my opinion and nothing more. Are you sure Modelhaus will even be for sale when said retirement occurs ? Will they even care IF , when or to whom its sold to ,,be in in its entirety or peacemeal ? If so ( again my opinion ) But when a business goes up for sale in most cases and to MOST potential buyers they will value it for darn near pennies on the dollar . again my opinion only and nothing more
  12. Going to stop by my LHS this weekend and get me one of these. Any issues be damned.....I want one bad. Then I just need to find the wheels I want to use.
  13. Sweet. Me thinks I need to get me one of these kits for the stash.
  14. In 1.25th scale the difference is slight. The green car is a Johan 1969 Roadrunner. The blue car is a Johan 1969 GTX The hood is going to be the hard part
  15. 1969 GTX powertrain is either 440 or hemi , All 1969 GTX's had bucket seats, woodgrain dash applique and doorpanel trim , Bucket seats were optional on a Roadrunner . But none of the interior woodgrain was even avail on a roadrunner 1969 GTX has a moulding that runs along the lower body line ( its 1969 GTX ONLY ) It also has recessed tail lights and a special trunk lid applique ( chrome trim ) thats very similar to the 1969 Sport satellite . Plus the grille is unique to GTX or Sport Satellite All the sheetmetal ,,including the hood is the same between roadrunner and gtx Yes, You can convert a GTX to a road runner,,,all you need is the grille. which I belive is avail thru either Modelhuas or Harts Parts. Ps, A Satellite or Sport Satellite was never avail with the hood thats on a roadrunner or GTX
  16. I've seen enough I WILL buy at least one of the wagons . ( maybe more ) But I want to replicate this car in a BAAAAAAAAAAD way
  17. For myself. I bought a magifier this past winter and dont know how I ever got by without it . Theres no way I can do the level of detail I want without it anymore
  18. I've been collecting pictures of this car for some time. As it IS on my short list to do . ((((( Once I get back to the model bench this fall ,,, dont do much modeling in the summer months ) I have the Club De Mer on the bench right now so it will be done first ,,then move on to the Futura
  19. Keep-em coming boys,,,,,, That slammed black one is killer,,,and I am not a fan of the big wheel / rubber band tire movement . But it sure looks good in the weeds
  20. For gods sake, its a model kit not brain surgery
  21. Looking good so far. And I agree , Black with red interior is killer looking on these old Dodge If you dont mind,,heres a little insperation for you.
  22. John, By all means show what ever you got. Projects is my middle name Whats with the missing spear on the pass side fender of the 58 ?
  23. Only seat decals are green inserts? Do the seats themselves have the pattern molded in ? ..in case I don't want to do a green interior
