kruzzinlow Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 I'm starting a 70 monte carlo and i'm really stuck on what style I want to build so I could use some inspiration.
Deathgoblin Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 Got 2 but they're both still in the box. A 78 Landau by Trumpeter, and a Revell 86 Monte Carlo SS. The SS is really just parts for the Trumpeter kit.
montelsc Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 Heres 2 of mine the original issue 77 lowrider kit and my 70 454
bbowser Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 I built this to look like my 1:1. I was going to do a before & after but sold the car to finance a 1:1 '67 Chevy short-step pickup. So all I've built is the 'before'. I'm working on another as Bobby Allison's Coke Machine NASCAR.
Draggon Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 My sad little stalled project.....I couldnt decide between lowrider, pro touring, vintage 70's street machine....Arrrgh!
montelsc Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 For repstock that 74 montecarlo is beautiful were did you get that body i tryed doing a 73 from a nascar body it came out ok but im not happy with it yours looks great!!!
Repstock Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 For repstock that 74 montecarlo is beautiful were did you get that body i tryed doing a 73 from a nascar body it came out ok but im not happy with it yours looks great!!! It's made from the '77 model. I changed the front and back ends, and changed the seats. The hardest part was the bumpers. And thank you for the compliment!
1fine89 Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 This may not be the year that your building but I thought what the heck!! Please excuse the wax build up, its a WIP Good luck on your build, lots of great eye candy here
diymirage Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 heres one i was working on somehow it ended up on the back burner (let me tell you my back burner is like a magnet...it sucks in just about anything near it) but here it is
deathskull59 Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 dang looks like that chevy needs a lot of work done to it.
VW Dave Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 Mine's not nearly as pretty as some of the others posted above, but it sure was a fun build:
Modlbldr Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 Have you thought about doing a Steve Stanford rendering? http://image.hotrod.com/f/10301691+w750+st0/hrdp_0806_cool_10_z+slo_touring+monte_carlo.jpg http://image.hotrod.com/f/10301694+w750+st0/hrdp_0806_cool_12_z+monte_carlo+wagon.jpg http://image.hotrod.com/f/10301697+w750+st0/hrdp_0806_cool_11_z+drop_top+monte_carlo.jpg I really like all three and am wanting to build them myself. Later-
