LUKE'57 Posted March 25, 2008 Posted March 25, 2008 Seems April 1st is getting a workout even before it gets here. Here's three more from the "wishful thinking" division of the newest kid on the block. First, a mild rework of the original MPC Charger with a set of David Pearson/Cotton Owens decal to go with the new racing parts and custom pieces. Second, a restored tool of the much modified '71 Grand Prix with custom pieces and newly tooled racing parts to go with the new Roy Tyner decals. And last, but not least, an all new tool of the '65 Impala with everything you need, including decals, to build one of either LeeRoy Yarbough, Stick Elliot, Jim Paschal, Curtis Turner or this ride of Roy Tyner along with custom parts and all stock parts. As before, caveat emptor, ya'll.
LUKE'57 Posted March 25, 2008 Author Posted March 25, 2008 You might be onto something there, time to put the cork back in, hic. LOL Got a little sidetracked between the photo loading and the captioning. Good thing I can do a little graphics work because proofreading sure ain't my specialitry. Here's the Mayflower that was originally intended to accompany the post in all its "cheated up" glory, sprayed on textured roof and all.
HotRodaSaurus Posted March 25, 2008 Posted March 25, 2008 Fantastic models and boxes as always! There's a guy out there somwhere who was producing some great 'If only' boxes, mainly for AMT and MPC. Things like Dragnet cop car, Mash Jeep you get the picture. I think an article in SAE featured him(cant remember name) and occasionally a copy of the boxes has appeared on the Bay Thanks for showing, John
HotRodaSaurus Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 That was the late Everett "Box Man" Westphal, who passed away a few years ago. He did an article on his work for the "Bonediggers" model car site. It can be found here: http://www.bonediggers.com/2-2/boxman/boxman.html Thanks for the link Mark. Some real great boxes there. 'If only' Keep em coming Luke John

bigphoto Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 I just know that they must be thinking of doing a Marty Robbins car!!!
LUKE'57 Posted March 29, 2008 Author Posted March 29, 2008 I just know that they must be thinking of doing a Marty Robbins car!!! You wouldn't be talking about a "Big Iron" like this would you?
