radiohd10 Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 I took an extended break this summer, so it wasn’t the most prolific year, but I am enjoying the slower build pace quite a bit - 4 to 6 cars per year definitely scratches my model itch, while also allowing me to see some sunlight 😂 I nearly snuck in a fifth build, but still have a bit of work to do. Hope to have it done and photographed in the next couple of weeks. Happy 2024 everybody!

If so, did you change the chassis? I noticed the inner fenders in the engine bay didn't look like the ones from the amt kit. It looks way more real with the inner fenders you have on it. great build!! Edited January 3 by Musclecarbuilder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also used the 67 engine. It's still not totally accurate but its way closer than it would have been out of the box 2 hours ago, Rocking Rodney Rat said: Very nice work on a variety of subjects.... -RRR 1 hour ago, Zippi said: Great builds for 2023.
