  1. Nice, I had the same sheet that shattered when pulling them from the water .I didn't have another decal sheet. SO,,,,,, I stripped the body and did the Ramchargers car instead
  2. WOW....pretty cool start so far.
  3. Ray, Any chance these decals can be done with a white side stripe and WITHOUT the R/T lettering cut in ? Also, I didn't see the sheet to do the back seat in the revell Thunderbolt listed ? ( unless I missed it )
  4. Looks killer As for issues. Keep in mind this kit was designed and originally produced back in the sixties by IMC . And with some patience can be a very nice kit to have on the shelf PS, the very 1st little red wagon was a plain red with white lettering . And was NOT driven by Bill Maverick ( he came into the picture later ) Me personally would love to have the decals to replicate this very truck
  5. Shame, history destroyed . Be interesting what comes to light once its all the facts are in ( if that ever happens )
  6. Picked up several parts at the Desert Scale classic for a few cars on the shelf. Most importantly I found the stock tail light lenses for both my AMT 1960 Ford Sunliner and my 1960 Mercury Park lane builders
  7. Right on, that car to me was always the best looking of the blue max cars ive got a few of the Johan mustangs I just might save one of them and do this car myself
  8. Ok Who has show results.? Chris ( aka Mooneyes ) HAD to get best of show. I finally got to see it in person and WOW, Impressive is a huge understatement
  9. Pretty much packed up , headed up tomorrow morning. We are planning to stay the nite over near Westgate Plaza outside Cardinals stadium . Then drive back to Tucson Sunday after breakfast / ck out. Bringing LOTS of unbuilts , and quite a few of vintage kits and several vintage empty boxes ( Im not a box collector ) I think Ive got this stuff priced to sell . So bring your cash boys.
  10. Not likely that I'll enter anything in the contest. Although i might just for giggles. Problem for me is most of my finished stuff is still packed away from the move. Im going more to thin the pile down than anything I'll be wearing a red shirt ....with AM High tech Automotive on it Wife god will be with me...to help control expenses going back out ...LOL
  11. Yep, At least from Mopar they were very accurate
  12. Looks good. But just an fyi, the only Dart where the battery was relocated to the trunk,,,,,were the hemi cars. Also Im pretty sure these cars were avail with full hubcaps like you have shown. Not sure about the availability of power brakes or not on a big block car.
  13. I would leave it flat on the backside to retain some strength / integrity
  14. Thanks. EDIT, bought - paid for 2 tables this afternoon See ya all there .
  15. Anyone know if vendor tables are still avail for this show by chance . ?
  16. Ive seen the Butch Leal 1965 Belv in person. And it is most definitely orange. BUT, its a restored car so I cant say with 100% certainty if its dead nuts accurate or not
  17. I tried it under an original MPC 1970 and its gonna take some work but very doable.......plus its far superior over the original AND the AMT challenger chassis
  18. My personal opinion. I would convert the Revell Cuda chassis before I used the AMT chassis
  19. Grills are on there way bud
  20. This weekend I'll put a Johan grill in an AMT body to show how it fits and take a few pics ps, ck your pm box
  21. Agree, For the most part there is no currently avail kit that even comes close to either a 1965 or 66 Fury. The originals are not terribly difficult to find ( 1966 is a little easier than 65 btw ) But be prepaired to open the wallet to get either one,,ESPECIALLY a 1965 I know, Ive tried to get a clean 65 convertible with no luck ,,,so far
  22. Dude, you are the master
  23. I must be getting old when 80s and 90s race cars are considered vintage / old
  24. Depends on lighting .....I've seen numerous pictures of this car....some look red others look orange . Maybe 2 different cars ?
  25. Correct ,,,,but for 1970 and later. which is what the valve cover shown is ( this is 1970-71 style ) 1969 and older have a chrome ( or black in non HP applications ) push on oil fill cap which is on the drivers side
