Okay, here's a pic of my AMT "Rat Packer" Nova. I scrounged the "Distortion" decals out of my 30+ year old decal box and they were originally from the AMT '55 Nomad. I painted the motor Chevy Orange with "aluminum" heads.

Fairlane's engine. I don't get crazy with ignition wires and aftermarket metal-etch detail sets. I still build'em just like I did in 1975 when I was 13. Just for fun, nothing else. Another form of "therapy," just as is driving my '67 Camaro.

Fender shot with the oh-so-cool 427 emblem. Note "Holleys" under the air cleaner. I just brush on some Testor's gold paint on the carbs and they look great.

That is some nice work Bill! Nice paint.I saw that Phil Bonner car run at Vargo a few times. I think the picture on the box is Cecil County Dragway va va va voomway.

427TJ... Awesome Models! A tip that was given to me a little while back that makes a tremendous difference -- detail the battery either with red or yellow knobs!
