Model Car Builder No 31

Big variety in this issue. MCB builds it's first diesel truck! Clay Kemp builds a IMCA Modified, we use Tamiya paints on a box stock '61 Impala build, add more details to our Foose pick up, and SIX pages of NNL East pictures! Will, SEVEN if you count the back cover!

Been working hard to get the new "pictorial" issue done. Not really a contest coverage issue, but a scrapbook of how-tos and feature cars that didn't fit in the pages of Model Car Builder magazine. Highlights include Steve Hinson in our "Builder's Gallery", A how-to on sectioning, detailing a Revell 1/16th scale dragster, and my table top coverage of this year's model car contest from the Grand National Roadster Show and Pleasanton Goodguys show. Plus several more cool feature cars.

Our special story is a close up look of John Teresi's award winning Harley Drag Bike that just won "People's Choice" at NNL West. Rodney builds a cool '32 Ford Roadster. We finish the Datsun 240Z in the second part on building twin Datsuns. Roy builds the Polarlights '65 GTO and is surprised that it is a snap kit! Special centerfold is the "Pontuna" custom Pontiac by "Doc" MidKiff. Workbench column continues with a new tool, and we have some great "Web Tips"!

1st Annual "Reader's Gallery" issue! Over 20 pages of some of the coolest models on the planet! Special how-to on the proper way to plumb brakes! More cool products off the web, plus more web tips!
