M W Elky Posted Sunday at 12:15 AM Posted Sunday at 12:15 AM This was kinda a slump buster type of build I saw the Chris Walsh decals on the eBay and added them cart . Then I clicked around and found a Sox&Martin 67 GTX kit nicely build for like around 20 bucks so I went to check out , and within a week Walla here it is . I masked off every thing except the sides and trunk and gave it a quick shot of Krylon white right over the red sides decals and all plus the blue deck lid strips. Once dry I applied the decals and swapping out the front wheels for some more accurate slots . That’s it . I’m aware the car should have a red hood scoop however I didn’t have the right shade to match the red side decals . This is a car I didn’t know I wanted to build before I stumbled across these decals as usual Chris’s decals went on really nice a perfect fit . In the future I’ll have to go back and fix up the paint on the chassis and engine. I also need to remove the old Sox&Martin decals off the glass parts .Until then I’m calling it done . until next thanks for looking 4

6bblbird Posted Monday at 01:47 AM Posted Monday at 01:47 AM Good job the model Michael! The Fink brothers bought that Plymouth from Sox & Martin. It was the very same car that Ronnie drove in 1967.

Thanks for sharing the Sox & Martin link to this car I kind of thought it was the same car re-lettered and somewhere it was changed to a automatic it seems like this combo was still competitive well into the early 70’s
Kanada Kustoms Posted Monday at 04:33 AM Posted Monday at 04:33 AM Cool build... That must have been quite the exercise in decal application!

pulln4dejr Posted yesterday at 05:57 AM Posted yesterday at 05:57 AM Cool build, I recently saw those decals for sale and thought I’d get a set! After seeing your build I think I’ll be getting them sooner than I thought 👍🏻
