  1. Problem with trying to repair that and NOT damage the windshield frame is going to be near impossible IMO< leave it alone
  2. got the email today. my order is about to ship
  3. Probably my oldest survivors Johan 1969 Roadrunner and I think the Monza is an old MPC kit ( not 100% sure though ) Both built sometime early to maybe mid 80s time frame The AMT Daytona was maybe mid 90s time frame
  4. My daughter built a Ramchargers car out of one I built the other one
  5. Snake I have NO idea the paint used on this. I bought it with plans to redo it. I just cant bring myself to take it apart.
  6. Ive got one of these . I bought exactly as you see it several years back. its one of my favorites even though I didn't build it. But I have no plans to ever redo it unless something major happens to it
  7. Nope, Not me. Ever that I can think of. And no real desire to
  8. Cool picture, And even though These cars in general dont do much for me. But I have a huge amount of respect of the fellas that drove them ( then and now ) Them boys had knads of steel to strap there arse in there
  9. Agreed. 100%. I built one last yeaor.so. And is one of my favorites. I also have 2 of the mpg thunder chargers to do one of each color scheme
  10. Looking at the box, the only thing the seller could have done to protect that was line it with plywood. I would be having a serious talk with the USPS if it were mine
  11. Looks good. I started one of these and got so frustrated with the decals it went back in the box where it still is
  12. Oh how I would love to have a styrene kit of this
  13. neat cars, air cooled engines and wooden frame rails I did a bunch of work on one very similar to this one, BIG air cooled 6 cyl. . it was pale yellow with black fenders but had different wheels than the ones here
  14. Nice, This is/ was one of the very first top fuel cars I ever seen live and in person. man these cars are LOUD
  15. Very well done. Your stuff is always so clean and crisp in the details all johan kit I assume ?
  16. I wouldnt be suprised if this actually happens. It could be a fairly reasonable retirement fund. Do maybe one kit a month. Small limited runs of maybe 20 or 30 ( maybe less,,maybe more )
  17. sweet, Nice colors. What did you use for the interior colors
  18. I bought it off ebay . Coming from Canada. And yes, Looks to only have 1 taillight ( I think I have that ) it was a little more then I wanted to spend. but having the uptop pushed me to pull the trigger on it
  19. sorry Mike ( ok not really,,,lol ) Ive been looking for the Pontiac tail lights for nearly 2 years. and the 58 Buick I have has those plain generic 58 kit wheel covers in it
  20. Spent $22 total. 1961 Bonneville tail lights and 1958 Buick promo wheel set I couldn't think of anything else I needed and cant find anywhere else
  21. Sounds good, Once we get settled in Arizona. I'll dig the 2 Dodges out to compare. I might be interested in working a trade. Not sure if I'll build this with the top up or not , but regardless I think I have a spare up top anyway ( need to do some looking to be sure once we get settled so it may be a while ) my 2nd conv I bought as just a body. I knew I had enough extra Johan dodges to make the kit complete . ( but its an original Polara conv body with the side trim ) Not sure if I have both front and rear model year bumpers though. We can talk pm when I get to that point I like the roof lines on a 64 B body mopar in either the hardtop or a sedan . I really like the body lines of a 64 Plymouth in any body style, but especially a convertible with the top down. Top up,not so much
  22. For my Plymouth ? Nope, I do have a spare 64 Polara drop top I would use as trade bait. I could even be talked out of the up top from the Plymouth to go with said Dodge
