Hey mk, nice set of cars you have there.  Wink [;)]

A theme build with research and detail, it's nice to see that compared to the usual OOB builds. Thanks for sharing with us!

I have a favor to ask...
Could you tell me what paint you used on #99 Charlie Glotzbach's bird?

From the photo it looks very close to a color I'd like to use on a few kits myself.

Keep up the great work.  Thumbs Up [tup]

Hey Dude - I'm old enough to remember those guys, and to have seen them race numerous times.

You've done an excellent job of bringing back the Mopar glory days. I especially like the shop setting. It adds a great deal to the display.

Keep up the good work.

Carl

Hi,

This is true as I have a book entitled "supercars", which is a history of the winged cars.

It has pictures of both 426 and 429 on the hood.

Also, I am an original superbird owner and although I do not still have it,

I do have the bill of sale and the special parts manual for it.

The cars look fantastic and I am going to build a copy of the one I had.

I will look forward to more photos from you!!

Nice looking build there. I have only one problem.  You have on the hood on both sides as 429 C.I. when it should be 426 C.I. as the others are.

WOW!

Very nice batch of birds you've done. The shop gives them all a nice background to, someday I have to make me something like that too.
