LVZ2881 Posted November 10, 2009 Posted November 10, 2009 caine, where did you get the decals for this??? I have been wanting to build this myself..
belowambient Posted November 10, 2009 Posted November 10, 2009 Where are you guys seeing decals??? keep going!
Harry P. Posted November 10, 2009 Posted November 10, 2009 Nowhere ... but this project will obviously require decals, unless caine440 plans to hand-paint the Landy markings. Oh, I get it. You guys are assuming he's building a race version and that he has the decals. Looks to me like more a stock version of the car. He never did say that he has the decals, so I was wondering what you guys were seeing that I wasn't!
caine440 Posted November 10, 2009 Author Posted November 10, 2009 Hello All Yes this one will be based on the White hat special Super Stock car. The kit is this one. Every now and then there is a vendor on ebay that sells packages of kits with decals. Bought a couple of packages off him. I am not sure who made the decals but they are not bad, some of the contingency decals are a little blurry and will be replaced with some slixx decals. Thanks
kyledr330 Posted November 10, 2009 Posted November 10, 2009 Great start on a awesome car! One of my favorite rides.
LVZ2881 Posted November 10, 2009 Posted November 10, 2009 Caine, if you come across an extra decal set, let me know...i really want to build this car!!
jjsipes Posted November 10, 2009 Posted November 10, 2009 (edited) I know of who Caine440 is talking about. These decals where originally done by Decals by Gooche. I believe I got mine from Special Appearance Decals but, they are no longer registered on Ebay, I believe. Sorry about that guys. Just have to keep an eye out I guess. By the way Caine440, looks good. Keep it up. Edited November 10, 2009 by jjsipes
caine440 Posted November 11, 2009 Author Posted November 11, 2009 Here are a few decals in place. Thanks.
my name is nobody Posted November 13, 2009 Posted November 13, 2009 Great build. I love the picture of the 1:1, with Dick behind the wheel with his white hat on. probably had a cigar in his mouth, too. should be a nice model when your done.
caine440 Posted November 21, 2009 Author Posted November 21, 2009 Here are the latest photos. I still want to clear coat it and then I will start final assembly. Hope you like it.
my name is nobody Posted November 21, 2009 Posted November 21, 2009 Looks great. I saw a 1/18 scale diecast of this recently. one great Coronet.
caine440 Posted December 1, 2009 Author Posted December 1, 2009 Latest photos. Just about ready for final assembly. Thanks for looking.
Ron Hamilton Posted December 1, 2009 Posted December 1, 2009 Lookin' good so far. I would like to do that one as well. I have the decals and a kit to do it with. I have to order the 1967 Dodge Dark Blue metallic from MCW to do this one. The Revell 1967 Charger has a set of Cragar S/S wheels, as Dick ran Cragars on just about eberything he raced. I just do not understand why Revell insists on including Keystone Klassics where Cragar S/S are the accurate wheel. The Dick Landy 1968 Charger kit also suffers form this.
Guest Gramps-xrds Posted December 1, 2009 Posted December 1, 2009 Now there's a signature that needs reduced.
Ron Hamilton Posted December 1, 2009 Posted December 1, 2009 Now there's a signature that needs reduced. Maybe one day, but not yet. The signature is a model I built of my recently deceased Father's '60 Bonneville Convertible. He died one month ago.
