  1. Love it
  2. Mid 1970 season on a limited use. About the same time as pro Stock first came onto the scene , Earilist Ive seen them is the 1970 Sox and Martin Cuda Became much more common approx 1971 and 1972 They were an over the counter race car part only from both mother Mopar and the aftermkt . never offered for street use, but like as mentioned some ran them on the street.
  3. The car snake is inquiring about to build. 65 Plymouth sedan 426 hemi and auto The Flash kit is a 4 speed but has everything else to build this car Slixx makes ( or at least made the decals for this one )
  4. Pretty sure you need the Flash version. Its the only one with a hemi , sedan body and correct A990 interior
  5. So does the AMT 1971 Duster
  6. I use Bare Metal foil for the most part. Although I have done an entire model using the pen with great results . BUT ,,,it requires a steady hand. Or a Q tip close by for the inevitable slip I think this one all the trim is the pen, including the wheels
  7. Please tell me there is resin copy avail . I'm good with a curbside version
  8. Steve, Im assuming all your coats are via airbrush , from 1st primer base coat to clear top coat ?
  9. Missing link makes ( or at least used to ) the baseline interior conversion for the AMT kit.
  10. Nice builds fellas. Im not a vette guy persay, but when I see them built makes me thinking about building some of my own
  11. 5 hours ago, StevenGuthmiller said: When I buy a kit, the chassis is honestly the absolute last thing I care about. Steve Make it triplets little brothers The chassis detail is my least concern, its not like I display my builds bottom side up.
  12. VERY well done. Having seen the 1/1 in person ( past owner was from Lexington KY ) I can say in all honesty, that was one WICKED sounding small block
  13. Perfect, I will have to pick some of this paint up and do a spoon test. I have a project In mind for a color like this
  14. I have one of these missing link resin kits. Not sure when or If i'll ever get to it. if your interested I might be talked out of it , pm me and we can work it out
  15. Got a closeup pic of that.? I would love to see how much metallic is in it
  16. Most , maybe even all the above please. As for the Bill Bagshaw cars, I'm baffled as to why no one has ever done the decals to do either of these is beyond me
  17. Some one correct , but wasn't this kit produced a couple times. One where it had said door scoops and one where it had the correct depressions like on the 1/1 ? One with a somewhat stock chassis and one with a full nascar chassis Notice slightly different boxart
  18. I started work at the local dodge dealer about 1986 or so. Best I remember they were a light grey primer or similar but with a satin finish ( some kind of gelcoat maybe )
  19. wow, just plain WOW
  20. Due to the design of the head on a Hemi, fenderwell headers are pretty much non-existant
  21. Would be super cool, although Im not holding my breath
  22. Ive got a few years before retirement yet. ( about 6 min and 10 max depending on my health ) We recently moved to southern AZ this past summer ( decided to make the move now as opposed to retirement time.) I landed a job at the Tucson Airport ( aka state retirement benefits to help with SS ) Wife god landed a job making 10K more than back in KY. This past Sept we purchased a townhouse / investment property / future retirement residence . Plan was live here till we get acclimated to the area . BUT, Just last weekend we put an actual house under contract, hope to close on it by the end of the month. Also Looking to purchase an old car next spring maybe,,early summer at the latest . So life is good. Im sure I'll tinker at the model bench a little here and there But Im afraid model cars will probably take a back seat for a while Once moved in and settled I plan to dig thru , sort out and go thru the stash and do some major house cleaning / thinning down big time .
  23. Might think about the pickup / go cart. the rest ,,,,meh!!!!
