Just received my Fireball Modelworks tires, and white letter decals.

WOW!  The mainstream manufacturers have never put out a tire that "looked" the right width and diameter that I have in the pics of my 1/1 cars.

Joseph has NAILED it!

Ordered the Mickey Thompson N-50's in both 1/24 and 1/25 to compare. Lined them up on a '67 Impala (had one) and a '61 Impala (had three of these, 1/1) and they are perfect! Capture that '70's/'80's look just right.

Be ordering 4 more sets next week. Will experiment with shaving the raised M/T letters off, and applying Fireballs white letter decals to reflect the tires I had (Cooper Cobra, etc)

If you haven't tried these out...you are missing out.

I just got (6) Goodyear Wrangler MT/R tires from him for a MENG F350 I am building with Scenes Unlimited dually fenders.  I am astonished at the quality, never seen model tires so authentic.  The order was here 3 days after placed with him.  Planning on more purchases.

I was wondering about that. I have some of the old AFX-N-Scale cast ones and they are to big.

Joseph's choice of products, quality and his service are outstanding and never disappointed. He responds very quickly when you send an order or email him with questions. I look forward all the time for the next product...just waiting on those Carter AFBs. The QuadraJets are superb and look so right!

I went ahead and ordered the 69 Barracuda scoops along with the 69 Coronet side scoops and 1/25 General Lee wheels and tires. This is nice stuff! The 69 Barracuda scoops are way smaller and almost look too small but they fit over the Keith Marks decals and look great on the hood during a quick mock up! Thanks again!!

They have to be the most detailed carbs I've ever seen, very cool.

Are you able to do the indicator lens that belong in the grill of the S & H Torino? If you could do them to suit the MCG photoetch set that would be awesome

How about some non hemi avs carbs?

I've done an AVS, actually!  It's not really a very popular carburetor, so I haven't been moving very fast on it.  I'd like to get my hands on a Thermoquad since it's a bit more popular.

This is my AVS 3D model:

Have you considered doing a Carter BBD, I think it's called? The 2-bbl. Chrysler used on a lot of small-blocks. It'll make making 340s into 318s a lot easier.
