Looking forward to your build Denny. That is one of my favorite kits to build into slot cars.

The Boyz are out of control with this Blue Violet first coat!!

The second color is going to be gun metal, and they are going to add this tonight.

I keep hearing a cry for a set of Goodyear "Blue Streak" tires to go on that car.

64 was the first year for the "A" body Barracuda. My Dad owned one - black paint with a gold interior. We knew it was a 64 rather than a 65 as it still had the push button gear selection in place. His was a 273 ci V-8 with a 2 bbl carb on it.

I've owned a 66 "Formula S", a 67 fastback and a 71 440 6 bbl/4 speed beast. I would like to have any of them back again.

Da' Boyz are doing some great work. Keep it up!

Boyz thought they better "butter up" the sponsor before asking for any more $$$$.

The gunmetal really sets of that Blue Violet color!

Need to buy some glass, realign the chassis to the body, and front and rear work to be completed!!
