Foxer Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 This one looks real good .. of course! But, I'm wondering, what do all the neighbors say when they see that crazy guy laying on the ground taking pictures of his toy cars?

Z28 Posted January 30, 2011 Posted January 30, 2011 GREAT build! I've seen this car more than a few times at "The Grove", Union Grove, WI. Marty
Dragracer Posted January 30, 2011 Posted January 30, 2011 Great car John, My overall favorite Chevy F/C (followed by Bruce Larson's USA-1 & Kelly "The Professor" Chadwicks cars), had the MPC model myself years ago, rebuilt it a few years ago, using a Competition Resin body with the Polar Lights chassis & a set of Decals by Gooch, Gooch's decals matched the ones from MPC (they were a little short overall for the resin body but I wanted to build it pretty much the same as my 1st one). Love the build man!
shatteredsoul76 Posted January 30, 2011 Posted January 30, 2011 Awesome job on the model! I seen this car last year at the hot rod reunion in Bowling green, KY. They had it fired up in the picture below, it was beyond loud. Bruce Larsons car was also there... http://i552.photobucket.com/albums/jj358/jakemilburn/Bowling%20Green%20KY/DSCF1505.jpg My wife and I have went to this event for the past couple of years so I have several pictures of some awesome old ,as well as new, rides that Im currently sifting through to add to photobucket. I plan on adding a link to the album when Im done here for the 1:1 reference pics.

iBorg Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 There are very few kits that I have passed up at a model show. This is one of two (the other was an Etzels Classic resin kit) that I passed up that I still regret. Semi built, poor decals (before slixx), restorable and only $40. Let it go because I expected it to be re-issued. Fourteen or fifteen years waiting and its still on the list of most desireable kits that haven't been re--issued. One day I'll pay BIG bucks for one. The next week it will be announced as a next quarter release. Very nice build. I wish it was mine.
iBorg Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 Hey Don......Since Gooche's decals are hard to find could you show a set of Slixx decals on it? Mike
caine440 Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 Outstanding Build as always! I love you work!
