Salvinosjr is doing it but it's been delayed a bit by the hopes of getting Kevin harvicks car from Stewart hass. They are using the current mold to create the new body and we're waiting on the team bu ...

the orange is the correct color. you could ask mike if he has an older printed set. i know when he updates them he removed the older ones from the site but has left over

looking for another set as the powerslide set for the monte are not the right size thickness nor shape for the malibu body

The angle you have it at is off. It doesn't overlap the splashes

I have done both tbird and Taurus, I used Tamiya pure blue with 2 coats of Tamiya clear blue over it https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid0ERwpLAGwMyYPNZkEM1w5n9xb8wUXqMVnqstTpCHaB6wfU9oWc ...

(same as the real racecar).

Well, the engine is totally different between a 1::1 Cup Chevy and Cup Ford. Not so in the kit, as you noted.

I just meant that the kit pretty much will build ...

The 'Saturday Night Special' ?? I've got you there.

Salvino JR makes the kit with Power slide decals. If you just want the decals, put a listing in the trading post section.

I was surprised to see the orange/red interior color in the pic. I would have bet that by then they were ALL light grey. (but I would have been wrong:)

Interesting. Now that I can make white decals, I might have to give that a try. What kit would I need?
Any post 97 revell chevy slab side will work

Built like 13 years ago. If you find a set i recommend only using the specific logos to that car and everything else from th ...

The smaller boxes closer to the driver are the coils

Late 03 the ignition system was moved to the dash. That was the 2 msd boxes and 2 coil packs. The arrangement was a team preferance.

Well done!
Is the glass tinted? Was that normal?

Yes it was till 96 when it was outlawed

No i havent done one. I use tamiya ts 71 smoke. I mask off the entire front and the half thats not tinted and spray 2-3 light coats from a heated can.

Thank you guys!

Family channel, valvoline and the second tide tbird come to mind. I bought the valvoline kit at my local flea market but mikesdecals sells 94-95 tbirds. Its the mail slot grill

No it never ran with a black one. It ran 3 times all on red. If you are builing the thunderbat kit the body is wrong for that car.

Thank you guys!

Nice! Have you got LED strip lights overhead?

Yes, the booth came with 2 strips pre added

Best sheet ever made for this scheme!

But back then in the 70's iam pretty sure it was laquer

When every paint manufacture like axalta and ppg switched to it. I think around 2014 is when that might have started

QUESTION; Did they still paint the real cars with lacquer ??
Not anymore. Every paint company has switched to water base with a 2k clear. Unless its an exotic color would be solvent based.

I cut the wheel wells open

You should open a thread on painting instruction. Without fail, your work is nothing short of dazzling.

Struggling strivers like myself would probably learn enough to bravely share our builds with ...

Looks awesome……..can you share what clear coat product you used and where you got the window net? I have one of these kits but have yet to open it.

Thanks

Absolutely beautiful! Were the body mods as easy for you as I made them out to be? I mean, they look perfect, just wondering how much sass the body gave you. Smile

Awesome builds! What color orange and red did you use?

I used mcw paint. But i found tamiya brilliant orange and bright red to be close to it.

Jose, nice work. One of my favorite cars. Would you happen to have 2 more of the trunk lid decals to sell or trade?

No i dont. I only got the one. Look up glenn hurd on facebook. He might be able ...
