Very cool. I was thinking about modifying a bench seat from a lindberg 64 dodge kit. Never thought about tape for the texture part of it. I like it ps, there is a real 1967 Plymouth RO car on eBay now .

Very cool, I've got the same thing in my to do pile. What is the bench seat from ?

An unbuilt Johan 1962 Plymouth Fury kit

I remember you mentioned this in your build thread, but I would need to also locate a pro stock pinto kit . And they aren't exactly giving them away . Even if I came up with a decent pinto kit I would want to build it as a Gapp-Roush car, there for I would need 2 Thus for me this would not be a car to do if on a budget. So far all have to do this car is the idea and the 72 bumpers/grille .

Box art might influence what kit I but over another only if the 2 kits are exactly the same. Meaning if the box is either an original or replica of some old version of said kit . As an example. I was looking for an AMT 1955 Nomad recently and I tried to get one of the original / older issues with some really cool box art lid. But,,alas I ended up just getting one of the newer releases with the boring artwork on the cover. But otherwise it means nothing to me . I buy for whats inside.

I get an idea and pull a body out , paint it. then get another idea and the whole process repeats . Thats why I have nearly a dozen bodies painted sitting in cases. my resolution this year is finish what I have already started.( including projects that have been sitting in the wings for over 10 years ) And at my current pace I shouldn't start another kit for about 2 years

Keep'em coming. Surely more have some old builds they just can't take apart to redo. I have a soft spot for the old stuff.

I can only hope they are these

I just got in a couple cans of TS75 to do a 64 Thunderbolt inter color , I was told to do it over a dark grey primer

Sorry, but the bumble bee stripe on a 1/1 - 1968-70 Dodge Charger was a decal not painted on BUT, The bumblebee stripe on a 1970 Challenger as an example WAS painted on and before body color was applied

I can only answer the Mopar side of it as I have yet to start or even open a mustang version. As far as chassis - powertrains ,,, I beleve they are 100% the same thing kit, just different bodies and interior tin work ps, isn't the mustang version a Cammer powerplant ?

That didn't take long. All gone

That is just to cool. A good friend of mine is a diehard Mopar AND a diehard John Deere guy would just die over this one

A few years ago I bought a bunch of old decals for vintage projects . In this packet are a bunch of partial sheets for military +/or Airplane markings . Of which I have no use for . I pulled out of them want I was after and I can't just pitch the rest. So, I am offering all the plane +/or military vehicle markings decals here. First one to pm me an address gets them for free (sorry guys but do to international postage costs the free deal is lower 48 only )

I remember seeing the Goldenrod a few years back on a show car circuit tour . I looked pretty cool , but wow was it long. And I agree, Unfortunately recreating the driveline / powertrain would be tough in 1/25th scale .

Having met a few of the people who build and compete at this level, I commend them . And , I can assure you . There are probably subtle things on this car ( as in years past winners ) That 99% of the average people will never catch unless you sit and stare at it for hours . Even then I doubt any one person would catch it all. The ONLY thing I don't care for is the screw clamps on the hoses. I just don't think the overall quality of the car goes hand in hand with cheap screw hose clamps . If they were trying to re-create the flavor / style of something old, the rest of the car is WAY to good for that. Overall I like it and would gladly park it in my garage , and I have zero interest in street rods .

Curious, Why do you say incorrect.? the Dodge trucks WERE avail with both a 400 B engine as well as a 440 RB up till approx 1977 ( maybe 1978 )

I have a builtup of the 72-73 long bed truck if anyone wants pictures

I've watched it a couple times and I am simply amazed by it. All of that was done without computer control. Makes me wonder,,,,how?

Missing Link has a 1972 style grille and bumpers (ft and rear ) I just got a set a few weeks back I've seen the decals on ebay a few times But, And I think Slixx now has the decals to do this car as well as Wally Booths 1969 Camaro

For your viewing enjoyment , but what is it ? I am thinking Oldsmobile or Pontiac or ????? http://www.dump.com/assemblyline/

Already thought about the firefighter mustang2, but it's my understanding one is coil over susp and the other is leaf spring , just don't remember which one is which (might still go this way regardless just for simplicity ,,and just not turn it over ) To the op I saw the in process pics and I REALLY want to do this car, only I am leaning more towards the other paint scheme this car ran under.

Ditto , Please ? I've really got on a pre-war classics era kick lately

Sweet, I so want to do one of these. Bad. It's coming up with the chassis seems to be the hard part. I keep thinking about attempting my 1st scratch build to do it. Already have a conversion 72 bumpers and grille
