  3. Agreed Ive always liked the 72 Demon grill over the 71 version myself. So if thats the case I'll grab at least one for the interior alone
  4. excellent work Looking forward to see it progress
  5. This variation isnt real high on my want list as I have a few originals. ' But " If they decided to make it A bench seat version,,,,,,, it could change that
  6. I think I have the round chrome air cleaner if you need it If so. Pm me and I'll look later.today I know I have the ft shocks

  13. We are on a similar path I have several hundred kits in the pile I want to thin that down to some kind of realistic goal in mind Keeping most of the drag car kits and some late 50s annuals or stock releases I want to build that aren't avail today The rest is going away and Im looking for shows to set up a table at and try to move some of this
  14. Excellent work I have the Jungle Jim car I built many many years ago Also have a Barry Setzer Vega FC done in the case ( MPC kit ) I also have the Jim Green car started using an old MPC kit ,( had decals issues ) So shelved it . I Need to get back to that one day here soon
  15. I have 4 wall cases NASCAR Diecast Model Car Display Case 24 Car 1/24 scale 3 are packed full, The last one I just got this past spring and its almost half full already I plan to get another this winter maybe
  16. Received my order from Mad Modeling yesterday. 3 Resin 727 transmissions and 3 pre wired dists
  17. Agreed 100% When ever I take a kit out of the box , ANY kit , old or new - newer I lay everything out on the counter and make sure its flat Then really look the body and related components to make sure there's not warpage I'll do a very basic dry assembly of major components , Body , hood , glass , chassis etc etc Nothing worse than finding out AFTER its all painted the car doesn't sit flat and square to the surface
  18. Looks killer I built this same kit about 15 years ago I think
  19. I brushed some on vent wing frames. I have to say. Im impressed
  20. Nice I built one back when i was a kid Built it again about 8 - 9 years ago. 2nd one turned out much better
  21. I decided to try and push my luck , try option C Cut 2 tiny pieces of plastiruc and superglued them in place. And BMF over them. Turned out pretty good if I do say so myself The vent wing frames are the new Fusion Chrome paint. Applied with a very tiny sharp tip brush
  22. My least favorite part of modeling . The BMF work I've actually been putting this off doing for a few days So I'm quite glad that's out of the way Need to figure out how or if I want to attempt to try and fill the slot in the door for the drivers side mirror I completely missed before they were painted Options are A- leave it and have a hole B- install the mirrors which Im almost positive an A990 car never had? C - Attempt to fill them with tiny pieces of plastic and make a 'faux pas ' mirror delete plate ?
