M W Elky Posted April 13, 2023 Posted April 13, 2023 This is a box stock lindburg kit covered with testors red enamel and smp decals. Thanks for looking ?, Mike 4
Rattlecan Dan Posted April 13, 2023 Posted April 13, 2023 Good looking Beastie! Nice touch of realism to it. Nice job.
TarheelRick Posted April 14, 2023 Posted April 14, 2023 Love those door-slammer cars. One fine looking Super Stocker.
papajohn97 Posted April 14, 2023 Posted April 14, 2023 (edited) Sweet! A shiny red super stock Dodge! I’d love to see that little old lady from the famous song terrorize Colorado Blvd. (or Grand Ave in Chicago) in this beast. While I applaud their decal subjects and efforts, I’m not a big fan of SMP decal graphic quality (I believe they use course raster graphics vs crisp sharp vector graphics like Slixx) but I must say these decals look great on this old Lindberg kit (which I keep building too!). I have a set of Grand Spaulding decals for a ‘65 AWB A/FX Dodge (the lavender and blue one from Fremont Racing) that I’m looking forward to using on the upcoming Moebius kit when it’s released. Another beautiful classic SS’er Mike! Keep ‘em coming! Edited April 15, 2023 by papajohn97 Added Fremont Racing

Another beautiful classic SS’er Mike! Keep ‘em coming! I fully agree with you the smp quality has a lot to be desired I find them very fragile. I also have to watch with a waxed finish as I’ve had them curl up and fall off. Boy is that fun to go back and fix. Thanks for the nice words. 1
Mike 1017 Posted April 15, 2023 Posted April 15, 2023 Great build. Lots of memories I grew up in the Grand and Spaulding neighborhood. Every Saturday a couple of us would ride our bikes to Mr. Norms. Thanks Mike

My dad helped me build a custom 26in Raleigh custom. The frame was Metal Flake Blue, a welded extension fork, a 16in ? front wheel and tire, a fat whitewall rear tire, a Blue Metal Flake banana seat, a sissy bar, Angel Wing handle bar, and a 52 teeth front sprocket. Definatly a 1 of 1. Mike PM me if you want to read my Mr.Norm's stories.
