The 301 heads will bolt to the block but the intake won't fit. The 301 (and little brother Pontiac 265) were low-deck motors, a redesign of the...
Back in the day, models of the Zingers cars and trucks were produced by MPC. The current owners of the molds, Round 2 models, reissued them back...
Here's a '60 from Massachusetts that some of you might like. Look close and you'll see factory buckets and eight lug wheels. There's also a 389...
Have you thought about going to a thinner seat with power tracks to get some extra room and possibly allow for better angles? You could...
Looks like the AMT annual kit of the '62 Pontiac Bonneville. The boxes back then were somewhat generic, with just a sticker on the end panels...
I ran a '70 Ram Air III (from a Trans Am) in a '68 GTO that shocked a bunch of Chevies, MoPars and Fords out on the street. The motor was set up...
Try the Testor's Model Master liquid glue. I tried it about 5-6 years ago and have never gone back to the tube stuff. It comes in a bottle with...
Good job! Better than most of the stuff I was building when I was ten! Keep on building!!!!!!
Don't know if I already posted a response, but mine was an AMT Trophy Series '58 Impala that my sister (!) actually helped me build. It set the...
I've still got the set from the late 50s/early 60s that was handed down to me from my older cousins. Used to love building with that set! The...
If you want to go way off the beaten path, what about a Renault Caravelle? Yeah, it had a wheezy little 4 cylinder mounted in the rear but it had...
Had an 8-track/FM radio combo that was passed down to me from my Dad that I hooked up in the family '70 Bonneville 455 Safari back around '77....
I have new and vintage HO cars in addition to Carrera track and I have to say, at least at my age, I prefer the larger scale cars. The last time...
I set up as a vendor at a model show on Sunday and made out really well, too. Some of my higher-dollar stuff came back home with me but people...
I had a 1971 GTO convertible, one of 661 total built and one of 79 with a 400 and a 4-speed. Couldn't afford the resto so I sold it to a...
I recall seeing a twin to yours used on an episode of the short-lived TV show "Viper". If I recall the episode, the car was an advanced...
Not a problem! I'd rather inform than let somebody go around with wrong info. Oh, by the way, I meant to write that the "hood" was a GTO...
I have to admit that I knew little about the Ultra Van when I started to read this, but I did know a bit about Toronados. In the Toronado, the...
1963 Corvette Sting Ray coupe 1965 Buick Riviera 1964-72 Pontiac GTO/LeMans/Tempest 1956-57 Bel Air 1969 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am
I tend to agree with you. Here's my not-HAMB friendly '81 Grand Prix sporting the end-of-the-line Pontiac 265 V8. Bought new by my mother and...
My all-time favorite full-size Pontiac! Great score! If she were mine (and oh, how I wish she was!), she'd get skinny whites and Radirs or S/S...
Wow, nine pages and no one is running a dare-to-be-different Pontiac OHC-6! Would love to build one of those and drop it into a 60's Nova, then...
Okay, if you can't see them here, you can now go to the albums section and see them under my name there.
Separate names with a comma.
