  1. This, All depends on what I'm trying to replicate But I quit using anything white enamel years ago due to yellowing if cleared
  2. If I may ask, why use a resin pro mod body that's nothing like the original ? Would have been much more accurate to use the recent Polar lights funny car body as a starting point just asking
  3. I have a few of his, hands down the best your gonna get . You will not be dis-appointed
  4. This is the closest your gonna kit in out of the box stryene I have one avail if its of interest, still sealed inside
  5. I just did a google search for both colors. And my best guess is the Corvette color is slightly to dark compared to the Mopar version.
  6. Nope, thats one rare option on the early cars . I believe the only difference between it and drum brake master is the reservoir is taller on disc brake cars ? I do know its still a single reservoir casting This particular car has already been converted to the 67 and up dual reservoir brake system ( still drum brakes though,,,,,,,but disc brakes are in its future if I do acquire the car )
  7. I can tell you that medium copper ext,,,,especially with a copper interior is an absolute knock out to see in person . Pictures do NOT do that color justice ,,,,trust me
  8. I'm a die hard Mopar fan. Its the only thing Ive owned since maybe the late 70s I'm actually in process of finally putting some vintage mopar iron back in my garage for the 1st time in close to 10 years ( the actual car in question ) 1966 Plymouth Satellite , 426 hemi , console auto. Black with dark red interior ( the original color combination ) If all goes as planned it will be in my garage this fall ( maybe sooner )
  9. Shame that 67 300 isn't a convertible. I would be doing my best to talk you out if it
  10. Would love to find that Maverick build. The rest I have
  11. Nice work on an old classic. I'm not a street rod kinda guy, But in the back of my mind , every so often I think I need one of these on my shelf . The car is a icon of the 80s
  12. Dude, If you just posted the 1st picture by itself. it looks like the real car in a VERY clean garage
  13. Looks good. Even though I'm a diehard Mopar fan. I love these big Pontiacs
  14. Sorry to report I buy based on subject first and foremost. BUT,,,,,,,, I HIGHLY prefer to avoid 1/24th scale anything. Unless I cant get the subject I'm after in any other form . For example, I searched out and bought Johan 1970 Roadrunners and GTX kits as I really don't like the Monogram versions of said car. Therefor about the only 1.24th scale kits I own are the early 30s cars, They are all either Monogram or Heller.
  15. Actual 1969 Road Runner grill
  16. Well, I can tell you there was never a 1/24th scale kit of a 1969 GTX or Road Runner produced. Odds are the resin piece is a screw up. I also, can tell you a Johan 1969 Roadrunner grill is almost a simple drop in to an AMT body I can ck over the weekend and if I have a spare 69 Johan RR grill ( odds are pretty good I do ) Its yours Shown is a Johan 69 GTX grill in an AMT 69 GTX body. Only thing I had to do was remove some material in the body behind where the headlights are to drop the grill in place
  17. pm coming And Thanks
  18. Rico, Any chance you could be talked into making a grille, tail light trim panel and interior for the Revell 1967 GTX so it can be converted to a 1966 ? I'm in talks to buy this very car and would love to build a replica for the shelf
  19. Ive probably got several set of the Johan MT Hemi valve covers if someone wants them as I SERIOUSLY doubt I'll eve use them all
  20. I''ll agree with the 61 . but the 66- and later Fords never did much for me,,,( just my 2 cents,,,,. ) My personal favorite is the 63 or 64 Galaxies
