  1. I need it to replicate a 1968 belvedere bench seat. Want to convert the revell gtx to a baseline Belvedere RO race hemi car
  2. The one in the lower right hand corner in this picture
  3. Im guessing 57 Chevy based on the hood ornaments
  4. I seem to remember many years the same thing was said about a 55 or 56 Chrysler 300. same goes for a 1965 Satellite. I would love to have a 55-56 Mercury, but I'm not holding my breath for it either Maybe just MAYBE a 68 Coronet or 71-72 Demon will materialize one day
  5. Need address. I have a hood. Custom grill and tail gate for the stepside bed version
  6. Steve. I converted a revell 69 dart into a 68 (before the 68 kit came out) several years back using the aluminum tubing trick. Works like a charm. Just glued the tubing in place and once the car was painted i polished the aluminum tube to look like chrome. Lenses are just elmers glue in the tube and painted with testors clear red.
  7. I think i have a hood for one of these. Will ck
  8. Where do I sign up
  9. OK, I will ck later this week to see if I have one or not
  10. I was in the one near me yesterday and same deal... ..just NOTHING i felt i had to take home.
  11. Look for this set https://www.ebay.com/p/2255308946
  12. Hard for.me to say. I like quite a few. But...to play along i would say the Revell Thunderbolt.
  13. Give me a day to ck. But. I might have extra ft and rear chome for a 1961 Ford Galaxie if you need it
  14. About your only choice is the 55-56 Chrysler 300 keep in mind the seat pattern will be different. Im not sure if there was ever an interior in those kits
  15. Ive always been under the assumption the 1st Grumpys Vega built was stock floor pan and front suspension from the back of the doors forward. basically only the rear suspension was heavily modified / scratchbuilt
  16. water pump style is different, as well as intake , exhaust manifolds and valve covers. Again just depends on how accurate Steve intends to get
  17. keep on mind the underbody from a 71 Duster has some differences than a 1966 Bcuda. Primarily front suspension differences and Im pretty sure the 66 was never avail with dual exhaust Same goes for the 70-71 small block compared to the 66 small block as well .
  18. Correct, and as far as I know the car has been repaired
  19. I wish you could some resin caster to copy these. I would take 2 sets pronto
  20. Nice project so far. When I did my 68 Dart. I drilled holes in the body where the side markers are supposed to be . Inserted a small diam aluminum tube. . Once the body was painted , I polished the edges of the tube that was visible and filled the center with epoxy and topped it off with the Testors clear amber paint
  21. Yes please. I have maybe 1 of the Ford trucks. The 72 version with no plans to buy any of the others Odds are will not be buying a GM truck IF they make one. But will buy SEVERAL if they make a late 60s to very early 70s Dodge truck kits
  22. Nope, But I have to admit worth every penny. I bought 3 of them earlier this spring . Plan to buy at least 2 ,,,maybe 3 more. The ones I bought had no panels to make individual spaces on each shelf
  23. Not in 1970. Actually there was no 1970 Coronet promo of any kind. MPC 2 door hardtop kit only
  24. Both the 68 and 69 MPC Coronet kits back then were hardtop and convertible versions. Both had the exact same conv interior tub. The original 1970 Coronet also had a convertible interior tub, even though there was no conv version of the kit made back then
  25. No, All the original interior tubs were convertible only
