bill-e-boy Posted August 20, 2022 Posted August 20, 2022 Another 32 Must be the year for or something in the air making us do it
KC FitiWerks Posted August 28, 2022 Posted August 28, 2022 Something I mocked up for HMCN. Life got in the way and it has sat in a box, time to break it out now. Any guesses what the body is? 3
KC FitiWerks Posted August 28, 2022 Posted August 28, 2022 This kit I bought for my daughter 3yrs ago. She started to paint it black and it didn't turn out the way she wanted to. So in purple bath and back in the box. She didn't want anything to do with it. "It's ruined!" Plus it's a snap kit, "That's for kids!" On the shelf it has sat. Drove by the High school and saw a gen1 prius that had a cardboard widebody taped to it(stock wheels & tires) with a 4' wing on it. I was lol so hard I didn't get to take a pic of it. After I got home and settled down from my laugh, I saw a dusty kit she gave up on. VALA... From a good laugh to a mock-up... 1

carl63_99 Posted September 1, 2022 Posted September 1, 2022 Looks like I've got my stance and interior/chassis fitting in the body just right. Making changes to the engines so all the hi performance bits are on the HO and standard stuff on the standard Cutlass. 2

Joe Handley Posted September 3, 2022 Posted September 3, 2022 How about this tiny, little one It was meant to be a Nash Metropolitan Lead Sled, but it’s looking more like a Sports Custom to me.
David G. Posted September 4, 2022 Posted September 4, 2022 It sure does have some beefy wheels on it! ? David G.

The only downside is the cost of two kits for the conversion. It would be so nice if Round2 upgraded all their promo style chassis to more realistic ones. 1

I was sitting here staring at my stash and thought “Hmmmm I wonder” next thing I know here I am lol

I was sitting here staring at my stash and thought “Hmmmm I wonder” next thing I know here I am lol I hear you. I think I paid $10 for most of the 68 Shelby kits I bought over the years and the newer AMT 67/68 fastbacks about $15. HRM made a resin convertible version which combined the best of both kits but it was not cheap. The 67 vs. 68 interiors are a little different but for a street machine like yours it’s only something the purists will notice. ? Edited September 6, 2022 by vamach1 Pics 1
