  1. Meh, another month of nothing to get excited about. At least not for me
  2. Thanks for the pics. I didnt even go this year
  3. WOW .......it wouldn't take much imagination to think this is the actual car. Hopefully this thing will be done about the same time I make thew cross country move to Arizona and be able to see it in person.
  4. Thats an understatement. To you guys that go this far in detail is beyond words to me and my hats off to you all. I simply no longer have the time or patience to do something like this. So I'll just live vicariously thru each of your builds.
  5. I do mine before ANY paint or primer goes on. Trim as close to the emblem as a I can using my lighted magnifier and a new Xacto blade in my cutter BUT, i use a rattle can almost exclusively so that may be a factor
  6. Got my grills in a few days ago. preliminary ck out they look perfect Thanks
  7. I'd say your off to a pretty good start
  8. I have SEVERAL on the bench mocking me
  9. Ive used Steves method several times with EXCELLANT results And I'll assure you a GOOD lighted magnifier is an absolute must to do it ( at least it is for me )
  10. Agreed, I would love to do something similar . Only in a vintage convertible / muscle car or something. I would have to be something with 4 wheels. My back/kidneys / knees etc etc would never take weeks on end on just 2 wheels anymore
  11. I might. But will be the weekend before I can do my files. Best I remember it's a bench seat . Silver with black inserts
  12. I would love to have a kit of one of these cars
  13. I see the model is a Fury 3. Im not 100% positive but I don't think the 426 wedge was avail in anything but a Sport Fury. if thats the case. it would be all engine color anyway ,,,maybe .
  14. Steve, I've edited my comment to reflect what I believe to be true. Although I'm not up on these cars as well as I am the 1966 and later cars
  15. I am pretty sure chrome was on the 426 wedge engines only, the 383 powered cars have black air cleaner and engine color valve covers
  16. you just need the shallow or deep versions or both ?
  17. I like it Would LOVE to own a real one
  18. I have several from the thunderbolt kits If u want them
  19. Having owned several 1/1 1969 GTX's . IMO the center needs to be ever so slightly deeper inset
  20. You KNOW you have my attention
  21. Are you planning to print / offer the entire decklid I assume
