Pro Stock Fun

And finally, the Butch Leal Duster.  The same Hemi combination as the Vanke Duster except that I used the carbs and stacks from the Moebius super stock kit.  The wheels and tires are from the Grumpy's Toy Vega.  I hope everyone enjoys these.  My budget and parts box really took a hit on this binge build.

Next, in this series, I opted to build the Wally Booth Rat Pack car.  I opted to build the 1968 version, but put the 69 decals and Cragar wheels on it.  Strictly based on what was in my parts stash.  The Time Machine Chevelle once again donated the big block chevy.  This required cutting the transmission tunnel out and replacing it for the bigger transmission.  The tunnel ram came from the 66 Nova Pro Street kit and the rear spring shackles from the Old Pro kit allowed the stance to be close.  A pretty simple and straight forward build.  I am now going to take a break from this series and do some more altered wheelbase stuff.

I pretty much only use Testors Extreme Lacquer and get as close as I can.

Yea I’m with you on the Testors. For years we didn’t know how good we had it when we could go to are local hobby shop or hobby lobby and get all of the factory muscle car colors . Now we’re not left with a lot of choices as the testors company was run down the tubes. I do like the tamyia line of paints but I have to travel further or send away to get them . Oh well.
