I knew you guys would turn this in to a pissing contest. All I was trying to say is..."Why can't the 89 kit be as nice as any other professionally made kit out there?". But I should have know that we can't stay on track in any of our threads. Thanks for viewing.

Rusty - Its true that there is still work to be done on that body before it is painted. Nobody is saying that it is "paint ready" right out of the molds. Heck! Maybe there are even HOURS of work left to do to prepare it for paint! BUT - that is alot different from the DAYS or WEEKS of work required of almost ALL '89 kits (yours including). If my right click button still worked on my laptop, I would copy one of the pics of the '66 and one of the pics of the '89 kit and I would put them side by side for illustration purposes... But I do not think that is necessary. You all know what I'm talking about!

well i thought this post were talking about mold and bodys and people were show what a good one is and what the bad is and all i said is that it is nice but your still going to have to do work and the biggest thing about paint on a 66 and 89 is the color you could paint that 66 in that picture flat black right now and it would look as strait as a new vet.. but someone can blow the pictures of my body up and say look at this and that. hey i know its going to need work. but i cant say that one going to need work and it was just me that said it (not you guys) you guys is when more than one person talk's about someone body...

Rusty no no no that's not what I meant at all. I'm not picking at your body not at all. That's why I used mine as the other example. This thread I was hoping to just address how clean a mold line can be (on any kit) and how bad they are on the 89 kits. That's all. I'm not at all trying to slam your kit or Mark and I'm not saying Kevin is the best. I just used his shots to show the difference in mold lines. The same with the coupe that Tim posted. It was just a simple observation and a question as to why the guys selling the 89 kit don't make the body perfect first before pulling molds. Really that's all. In case any of you guys missed this before Rusty's body is much nicer than the one I started with.
Actually it was Kevin that started this fight.... :mad Way to go Nodeman!!

Actually it is the very same car, it has been sitting in my back yard upside down for almost a year before I pulled it out and knocked off most of the dirt.
Don't take my word for it just ask Jack, KGB, or Bob J. he put it back there.

Hey Nate, is that a pic of all the kids you're going to have sanding on your car? I hear that you can go down to the local orphanage and get a whole crew for 2.99 an hour. Some can sand the 89 and the rest can wax the 66:
