- Just my opinion, but this may well be the best effort ever from AMT/ERTL, nice to see it with updates! *LINK*
- Hard to believe, as at one point I had over 100 Mustang kits in my stash, today I only have one built example to share.... *PIC*
- Mustangs, seen before --
- The only Mustang I've built *PICS*
- First Mustang sold is still with it's original owner. *NM* *LINK*
- I saw the Mustang at the New York World's Fair in 1964. Been a fan ever since. pics
- NEED WEATHERING HELP: copper scale chain needs blackening agent--Micro Mark has some--expensive for minimal use--vinegar work maybe? *NM*
- Mustang PIX
- Mustangs....pics....
- MY THROW IN... for Mustang day. Built this many years ago. PIX and thanks for looking
- Mustang Birthday today? I think there was a posting day scheduled......either way here's one of mine. *PIC*
- The new Mustang was introduced today in 1964. We pedaled our bikes down to see it. For the next few years it seemed like every driveway had a Mustang in it. *NM*
- I'm sorry I don't have pics. It was so unrgent to get them to market as soon as possible I didn't document the mods. For the stock height I just eyeballed it, and whatever was left made up the chopped body *NM*
- Thank you. Grab the saw and DO IT! *NM*
- Didn't realize you used the Altered States tops on both of those. I'm honored. I did offer up the masters to another caster a couple years ago but they passed. *NM*
- Calling it done..... '30 Model A Victoria Gasser. *PICS*
- Did anyone else get the text message saying TRJ #86 is on its way to subscribers and they're working on #87? *NM*
- DON'T WANT TO.... be a thunder sealer so is my own post. From one extreme to the other extreme. Same color but different extremes. PICS and thanks for looking
- Replicas and Miniatures
- Ranchero *PICS*
- That’s interesting as I’ve got mine. *NM*
- Couldn't resist posting this. Talk about yankee ingenuity, how 'bout this custom build?----------MILITARY CUSTOM
- Speaking of car shows (?). I'll be attending this one Thursday and Friday.------SAMPLES
- Ever hear of a resin company called Design Detail, out of Seattle? I acquired some of it product line last night at an IPMS club meeting.
- Totally O/T: If you got an email from my redchief66 account, delete it and dump your trash, I got hacked
- Anyone have the '73 Cougar yet? Was it in Black or (puhllleeze!) white styrene? Thanks! *NM*
- Frank, I'm with you on this,but to me each his own. I see rat rods as the progeny of past fads like over-customized cars of the early 60's, undriveable thingies like the bathtub car, and prostreet cars. Cars built to follow the laltest fad reach a point where theyh are no
- Tone down that impractical chin splitter, get rid of the ugly blocky bench top rear spoiler and tuck in those rubber cooler lines and it would look a lot better. *NM*
- Off the bench......PICS......
- I have a couple of AMT '68 Mustang (built-ups), and a couple of "68 Shelbys. I ought to build one of the regular Mustangs. *NM*
- Mike Siegman *LINK*
- NAH! Ruined an otherwise nice car. *NM*
- Aurora Undertaker...
- Tone down the over the top chin spoiler.... Lose the towel rack rear spoiler and demo derby exhaust, and your on your way to something with a lot of potential. *NM*
- Has anyone offered to send parts yet? I have a bunch of extra grilles and headlights. *NM*
- Seeing the MPC 1973 Cougar reappearing at the top of the page makes me wonder if the roof could be combined with one of the great new Revell Mustangs to make a Mustang coupe. *PIC*
- I look at these cars as a caricature, or cartoon car. It's all about style, not function, but it imitates function with the exaggerated racer stuff. Creative and fun, not to be judged in a serious light, kind of like those rat/junkyard creations in another thread.
- I like it. You know if you parked that in a parking lot every small kid would run over to it to see it :-). It looks like a Hot Wheels *NM*
- Just one more project idea. Bloody Meri *PIC*
- I'm under the impression that Scale Auto puts out 2 contest magazine editions in a year. Is that true? *NM*
- Drag Race Memories, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada... *LINK*
- I’ll give him props for that. I never would. *NM*
- DROOL!! *NM*
- Dave, I emailed you a copy of the flyer. Sounds like it didn't make it ito your inbox. JIM. *NM*
- IMHO, it was kind of a rebellion against the rich guy pro-built billet rods. As time goes by, the ‘cool’ rebellion becomes mainstream and pedestrian. The next big thing comes along, and the followers follow, leaving the die hards to carry on. We’re almost there. *NM*
- Sort of looks like Rat Rods meets Steampunk *NM*
- Who makes a nice set of 1960s big and little medium wall show car/show rod tires Thanks *NM*
- Canuck3D offers a ‘71 and ‘72 conversion for the AMT ‘70 Chevrolet. I suppose that’s the closest we’ll get, as I don’t imagine we’ll see a ‘71 kit ever again. *NM*
- Thanks Marty...really liking the '57 F100....mainly 'cause I have one of my own. *NM*
- I’d drive the wheels off that. *NM*
- Dave, for me no big deal. I'm 3/4+ a century old. Besides, you remember "Sticks and stones....", right? *NM*
- Marty, that's why I attend this show. Never know what will show up. Like this Viet Nam Vet (grandpa) who told me he's giving this beauty to his granddaughter graduating from college.----PICS
- I have three words "BEAU-TI-FUL". *NM*
- I could see more of the 55.... Oh you have mail. *NM*
- I'm prepared for anything. Bring it on.
- Straight Line Saturday....errr... Sunday......
- Well, Revell has done some '68-'72 GM A-bodies in recent years, so ya never know... *NM*
- Here's a cool idea. Disregard that cartoon character on the trunk or hood. Check out the "bubble top" (Garrett's words) on this lowrider '64 Impala. No, not a 62 bubble top. Take a look at the roof. This would be cool to do on a model as well. *PIC*
- Re: But is the tooling still around? hmmm... I thought the current AMT 70 WAS the 71/72 tooling backdated.....
- The last reissue was the MPC ‘72 Chevelle “Street Machine” in the mid ‘80’s. The AMT ‘72 was backdated to the ‘70 in the mid ‘90’s. In the early ‘00’s, they used the MPC kit on the box art cover, but the body was the AMT kit hastily updated to the ‘ *PIC*
- Say what you want about those Rat Rods, but at least you'll have the only one there, unlike a lot of car shows ......
- From the same artist at Artstation, Garrett G. This wouldn't be a bad project idea, IMO. *LINK* *PIC*
- Having owned a '67 Fastback.....I think I'll pass. And what's up with the 4 lug wheels? *NM*
- Don't see the point, but to each their own. *NM*
