  1. This is one kit Im real happy came about. I have one built from right about the time it came out , my youngest daughter built it actually and its one of my favorites
  2. Not necessarily true. Bultups are not that hard to find ( I have 2 myself ) and price wise is comparable to the former Modelhaus resin kit
  3. I dont need one, But me personally I like the accuracy of the door scallops on the AMT kit over the revell version But cool box art none the less
  4. Some mad skills dude. far more then I would have attempted
  5. If I can make a suggestion. Add stryene strips to the edges of the roof along the roof drain gutters. If you are doing a vinyl top the original trim on the kits is / gets far to shallow compared to the added trim at the base of the C pillar area
  6. Wow, just WOW Keep it up and if theres any chance of a resin copy of the interior, I would be interested. I have a builder and part of a 2nd . My plan was make one a vert like this
  7. Thanks. Ive been to the Meadow brook hall show about 20 plus years ago These shows have cars you will not see anywhere else and are a must do at least once for a car nut like myself
  8. Killer pics Now I want to know where this is . Is it a busy tourist place ? PM me details if your prefer I can see a weekend road trip in my future for this one
  9. Now,,,,,,If we can just get a late 60s to early 70s DODGE cab I would be set
  10. Off road was the family tractor which was great to learn how to drive a clutch . otherwise its A combination of my parents 1973 Ford Torino wagon and 73 Ford F100 pickup( 3 on the tree no less ) and my 1st car , a 1966 Pontiac Tempest . I bought with my own money. Paid a whopping $50 for it and drive it home
  11. Correct, exhaust manifolds had engine color on them for a very short time
  12. Ps, the 4 blade fan is 66 and MAYBE 67 only. The later street hemi got the 7 blade fan and viscous fan clutch all other years
  13. Yes , simple publicity stunt to draw big money buyers all in under 1 roof. Owners name is Tom L. and he has owned the car for quite a while and YES, he does drive/ has driven it occasionally
  14. Talk around the community is it will get bid sky high ( 6 to 7 mil ) and end a no sale 1 of three 4 spd cars and the only one in Winchester grey . Ive seen it in person a few times. The car is a knockout in person
  15. this is a Duster but the method is pretty much the exact same
  16. Mopar was primer on the bottom side. with various suspension pieces only painted ( or not painted in some cases ) primer was typically a bluish grey color and it WILL have some body color overspray along the sides of the car But the exact primer color did and does vary by which plant the car was built. LA plant as an example was a REALLY dark grey almost black color No Chrysler product of the period ever had a full body color underside .
  17. My 2 cents. Move the forward most bracket outward just a tad , basically to the very edge of the intake where you have it now its going to be in front of the carb
  18. As far as i know . The wood grain door panels and dash trim were standard on the GTX trim level.. Question is......was Daisys car an actual GTX? I seriously doubt it. . Most likely a car thrown together from various sources.
  19. I dont believe that is Jay Lenos actual car. I think its there to store while the ca wide fires were going on a while back . he did a show on while it was there
  20. If you need closeups of anything for the engine. Pics are as close as my garage
  21. Ive done this method using both air brush and rattle can paints. Key is VERY light touch with the swab. Best to use it under a lighted magnifier
