caudleryan Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 (edited) Been kicking around the idea for some time now. Seeing as how we haven't had one yet, I thought it would be a good idea. What do you think? RYAN. Edited April 11, 2011 by caudleryan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Neo Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Would be fun but when and of course If you can make a non aircraft GB official Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SBARC Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Non-aircraft GBs are just fine. I think this sounds like a great idea if people are interested. Later this year there will be an ARC Automotive modeling site anyways. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Neo Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Well then its pedal to the metal i need to find a 67 ford mustang fast back Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wh1skea Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 I'm willing to jump on board with this one. Give me an excuse to build a General Lee out the AMT's 69 Charger kit. Also would probably do a what-if state trooper car out of either the same 69 Charger kit, or out of a 70.5 Camaro kit, provided its alright for this build. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Miccara Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 I've been staring at this 69 Z28 someone gave me (used to own one, God I miss that car), this would give me an excuse to build it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dmthamade Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Yes!! Don't know what i'd build, but i would join. Would like to know what qualifies. Muscle cars to me mean 60's to mid 70's North American stuff. How about Pro Street or Street rods? Don Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Flyboyf18 Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 So a Mustang GT500 KR would be in? The new version Revell kit?? Or a 4 banger Mustang, Revell just re-released the SVO!!?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
waylandcool Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 I would probably be up for that. I'd like to see a non-aircraft GB every now and then... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Expat Tomcat Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 I'm in, I just found a 1/25 scale version of my '04 GTO. I've only been looking for this kit for the last 4 years. This may be the first group build I actually have good enough timing to participate in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

caudleryan Posted March 8, 2011 Author Share Posted March 8, 2011 I would also guess that the newer versions like the charger, challenger, and camaro, ect. would be fine as well. RYAN. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dmthamade Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 How about Pro Street versions of cars that qualify? Don Quote Link to post Share on other sites
caudleryan Posted March 8, 2011 Author Share Posted March 8, 2011 Drag racers? Why not? I think we can keep it like that. No funny cars. What do you think? RYAN. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

caudleryan Posted March 8, 2011 Author Share Posted March 8, 2011 In case anyone is confused as I was before I looked it up: A "Pro Street" car is a drag car that still has plates and can be driven on the street. They typically have a narrowed rear axle and wheel tubs to accommodate huge rear slicks. There usually "back-halved" car's meaning only the rear axle/suspension has been highly modified while the front suspension is all stock.Unlike a full on drag car, a lot of Pro Street car's retain modern convenience's like A/C, a Stereo and full interior for example. They all have typical safety item's to be street legal like functioning winshield wiper's, exterior lighting and horn etc. RYAN. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
