The engine is a 1960 Buick Nailhead.

Check out this video I made where I built the engine. Not sure if I mentioned it or not since this video is a few years old. ruclips.net/video/-l-dEKYA37A/видео.html

Thanks Again Trevor, Much Appreciated

Life is better with BOTS?

This channel does not have content!

Good luck an😺d I hope you have some fun there!

Nice. I tried to install one of those and it went flying across the room after I opened the hood. I'm not sure how they were designed to stay in place.

@@monsterhobbies same here tried it once, I guess that's why there's so many extra in that kit

@@brianlewis6926 lol

I believe Revell has a 1966. I imagine that if you got one of these kits and the Revell kit, that you could cut the roof off the Revell kit and use the convertible parts from the 1965 to make your car.

Revell makes a 66 hard top that probably could be made it a convertible, yep I would take a 66 GTO over a 72 nova

@@brianlewis6926 My Dad worked for the telephone company as a draftsman and had to go out in the field to work. He said the company cars were Chevy Novas, bare bones, with no power steering and they were hard to steer. He never liked them.

Very cool! Model cars also lead me in automotive directions. I made honor roll in my high school for mechanics, got a scholarship for Autobody collision repair as well. Never made a career out of it though. - reasons!

@@monsterhobbies great! I got away from turning wrenches because of the back strain

I was trained, but no one would help me get my apprentice papers. I ended up doing other things and eventually opening a hobby store and making these videos.

That's funny about the Toyota Hemi. Mine could pull up hills faster than my friend's front wheel drive 1976 VW Rabbit.

You and I seem to have shared a similar path. I took automotive in high school and later autobody in college. We both had this Toyota. - Now we're making RUclips videos on model cars. Strange, isn't it?

@@monsterhobbies and don't forget we both have videos of the 70s Japanese girls, even though I didn't post mine yet lol. All I need now is my own hobby shop! 😁

@@pappytinkers Yes. I need one too! LOL!

Ah...I know why the links are not showing up. I have 3 youtube channels and I originally made these videos for my Monster Hobbies Model Car Garage channel. The links were included on that channel. but I didn't post them on this one. I'll have to go through my end screens over here and sort it out.

Yes, very much so. ..but the story is complicated.

For sure. IDK why it needs to wrap up so far in the headliner.

So do I. Initially,I really thought I had the wrong glass sprue,😧🤣🤣

@@petesmodelcarcustoms584 It is odd.

@@petesmodelcarcustoms584 Did you get to see my video on the model car contest? - I'm trying a new concept that I hope helps some model builders out there.

No I didn't watch the competition video. I thought it must be relevant to real Canadian show entries

Good luck Pete! You never really built it out of the box....and for this kit to have so many issues just on that level is incredible. I can't imagine what you are going through with all your customizing when 95% of the basic kit parts have to be modified just to get it together BOX STOCK. - Talk about an impossible kit!

Nice. Ah...did I forget a link? darn it. I just released my video on model car contests. Have a look for it on this channel.

@@monsterhobbies I have trouble with those things too. It just so happens that there's contest I'm going to next weekend lol

Nice. Hope you can catch the video. I thought it would do better, but it seems to have flat-lined.

@@monsterhobbies I've watched about half so far and will watch the other half today or tomorrow. Was Danny the Dog the secret thing you were gonna try? I laughed when I saw it, I try to keep my dogs out of my vids and you bring one in! Lol 😆

@@pappytinkers Danny makes appearances in many of my videos. - No, the video on building for contests was the new thing. I use Danny in videos where I need to be talking to someone, since no one in the rest of my family wants to be on video...plus, I can control what he says...he is my puppet after-all!

Sitting here doing what? Watching my videos? Yeah man, you need to get yourself some kind of social life, for sure. Have you ever tried talking to women? It isn't that hard you know. Some of them may even have the same interests as you. You just never know until you actually try. I've been married over 20 years, we have a good house and fairly new car, and I have kids as well. In my spare time, I make these RUclips videos and they pay me for it. Go figure!

Right hand drive? That's interesting. I didn't know these were exported.

Thank you for the extra information. Always great to learn more!

Thank you. It will be a fun one to build, for sure.

Doc is an earlier Hudson...1951-1953...but don't worry. Moebius has that one too.

It sure is! I also have the first edition of this kit from the late 1990's - early 2000's. The first edition didn't have the Go-Cart and only licence plates as the decals.

Cool, thanks! I will have to try it sometime.

Very thin, color matching stripe pattern.

@@monsterhobbies I bet the highland regiments look great,marching in it😉🤣

@@petesmodelcarcustoms584 I can hear those bag pipes now! 🐴

@@monsterhobbies 🤣🤣🤣🎶

Glad you enjoyed it. We reach!

Awesome! Thank you! I have a lot of other videos as well. I have been doing this for a few years. When you have a chance, please check out my other builds and don't forget to click the notification bell so you don't miss an upcoming episode.

No worries Pappy Tinkers. It's a good kit. Still wish I had my earlier edition though.

I own a hobby shop in Canada - in Alberta. I can bring the Bedford drop side truck and the tipper truck in for you by request. www.monster-hobbies.ca Let me know if you are serious and we can work something out.

Nice! If at first you don't succeed, try, try again.

Thanks for the info!

Nice! I hope you are enjoying this series.

Yes, I was watching your videos on it. I even left a comment! 🤓🤑👋

I am glad you liked the video and thank you for the tire tip.

I hope that when I make the build video on it that you will find that and watch my "Walk Through". Hopefully I can help make it less scary for you if I build it first.

Hey PB you could always send it south of the border. Cheers JV

Thank you for the history. Thank you for watching the video.

Thank you for watching the video.

Very cool! I have heard a few stories from my parents about other cars that didn't like the cold either. My 1973 Toyota Corolla was bad on rainy days too. Moisture would get into the distributor and mess with the sparks.

Thank you. We have Esso here. Interesting to know that history.

It is a good kit, highly detailed. I can get a few of the trucks in from my hobby wholesaler.

Thank you for that. Maybe I should have mentioned Scotland, Wales and Ireland too?

Start at the beginning and work your way to the end. That's what I am doing and I am finding a lot of projects in various stages of completion.

I think so too! It should really challenge the builder, that's for sure! (And the builder is me! LOL.)

Thank you so much. That would look great for the 1966 Batmobile to be near. I should see about getting another of these kits and just building it as a base model family sedan

I thought that was a 1950's pay phone. Actually on the decal sheet, there is a poster or calendar from 1948. The phone would probably fit that era.

I think it's Salvinos Jr Models that make those. Thank you for the folder.

Totally. It was just sitting there on the shelf. Glad my sister didn't throw it out. - And that it's still useable, although it takes about a week for the paint to dry. It will be going on a few cars in the future.

That gives a whole new meaning to flow time… 😂😂

for sure

Right on! I enjoy these stories.

@@monsterhobbies My step brother totaled it while I was in Basic Training. I bought another 68 when I got stationed at Ft. Hood, unfortunately it was grossly under powered with a 302 2bbl.

@@mattfulmer4243 Too bad about the car. I saw one today, a 1969 Fairlane that was a medium metallic blue with a cream vinyl top and matching hub caps and it had a huge sunroof installed.

Glad you enjoyed it. It takes about 3 weeks for that paint to dry. No rush though, right? You are going to love my build of the pink 1953 Ford Truck and 1969 Dodge Super Bee when they release.

@@monsterhobbies I think 3 weeks would be a bonus. Heaven even. 3 weeks without seeing one of these blooming models🤣. What a can of worms this has been. 😧😃

Totally. This is why I am working on the pink truck and the 69 Super Bee.

Glad you like it. Do you have one?

@@monsterhobbies I have the police addition

@@modelcar1589 Me too! I unboxed that one on this channel a few years ago.

That's the only way to go!

Thank you! The decal instrument panels look good, don't they?

It's a nice and easy one to put together.
