Loving this.

Question what other decals are out there that would work on this kit?

Bill Shirey http://stores.smhracing.com/458-the-professor-64-65-plymouth-bill-shirey/

Ronnie Sox ran a stock wheelbase as well

Anybody know of any others?

I'm hoping someone will do decals for the Fenner Tubbs SS/A driven by Joe Smith.  Won the '65 Super Stock World Championship at the NHRA World Finals at Tulsa with that car.

Dont hold me to it, But I think the decals to do the Chuck Ostrich car and the The Professor  cars are both available

The  Chuck Ostrich car

  The Professor 

 

 

The Ferris Motors car

 

Cant think of any others at the moment

That's right. Fred Cady did the Bill Shirey "The Professor". I had even started the 1964 car. Duh!!!

My understanding is its a superstock Hemi auto car. Sedan obviously , stock wheelbase with correct A990 interior

 

I'll just holdoff buying any of  the newly released sedan and get a bunch of these instead

Ditto, while I wont be buying a bunch of them, I will get one instead of the newly released sedan.

I thought the Fenner Tubbs car was just all black. At least that's what I remember, wasn't the casr in Mopar ads?

[gtx6970]

I think you are correct,

All black with white lettering ( or was it silver lettering ) . The car went thru a few changes over the course of couple seasons ( like many of them did back then )

I will wait for the race versions and refrain from buying the stock stuff. 

I think Cady also did the Golden Commando car

Yes he did as I have a couple of those sheets as well as The Professor decals.

I like to see the "color me gone"decals on the 65 belvedere.

Hello from Canada. New member here, and I'm reading the posts on the new Moebius kit coming out. First, a huge thank you goes out to the manufacture and Model King for bringing out kits the model builders have

been asking for for years. This one is on my must build list also. Now, Sox and Martin drove a stock wheelbase sedan, along with The Melrose Missile. Cady made decals for The Melrose Missile, and Slixx decals could be

used for the Sox and Martin car. I would invite everyone to check out a site called georgeklass.net. If you are interested in vintage drag racing, this site is loaded with some great shots, and lots of building ideas

here. Some more 1965 Plymouth Sedans: Miller and Guenther, Mr. 5 and 50,, Texas Rattler,Stinger. Hope this bit of information is helpful, and a great forum.

Thanks for listening.

....I would hope that decals are going to be made to build some 70s 80s era S/S  65 Plymouths like Steve Bagwell, Ken Montgomery's 555, Thumper, and many others from that era, as there were so many very nice ones. over the 50 years of these cars being around, the number of owners and paint schemes is pretty vast, so decals for some killer builds is entirely possible...the Ace....

Now that I think about it,,,,,,,I seem to remember that someone was / is / or used to do decals for  the Steve Bagwell car ?

Its Blue and white , almost the exact same  layout as the Butch Leal car

 

Cady did do a Golden Command car, but technically its for the 64 car.( aka #6 )  and I think he did a sheet for the 65 AFX car. There 65 superstock decals were vastly different than any of there other cars.

Not to mention it was a hardtop .

The Golden Commandos car pictured was the 2% wheelbase car that only ran in the 1965 AHRA and NHRA Winternationals. It was then converted to the altered wheelbase car. Same goes for the Melrose Missile '65 hardtop.

I'll tell you what I think on all this....I would venture to say that for any of us to fret over decals that were once made is going to be a moot point, because the decal guru's will be all over this kit cooking up any and every possible driver/ owner they can produce to sell everyone....you will eventually see all the famous, typical cars we all know, down to the most obscure paint scheme's and drivers in the not so famous category.....just my 2 cents,,,,the Ace....

I sure hope so.

I for one would like to see decals to do the Jim Hagen car, the Steve Bagwell car , The Dick Housey car, or maybe even the Arlen Vanke car. And many more I cant think of right now

[BubbaBrown]

When will we get it ?

[250 Testa Rossa]
