I would like to thank Dylan @DylanMcCoolVideo
because his video was the inspiration behind this build:

I'd also like to thank Jonathan and Macy for the chronicling the ongoing saga of the restoration at their channel:
@MaySeizeGarage
I look forward to seeing more updates in the future!

This is Joyce. Frank thank you for the model. You did an excellent job. It was such a special gift. It holds a special place in our life. There are great people and you are one of them. It is exact down to the CB antenna that was on it. Thank you.

@JoseDiaz-kb3fs 6 месяцев назад

@@FranksModelWorksI try to do the same, the last 3 cars I’ve built I’ve given away to persons that had the car in their earlier years, they’ve been surprised and they really appreciate it. I have in line a 69 Mustang GT, a 67 Camaro RS, where there’s no where where I can find those special decals “Bumble Bee”, if you know pleas advise, and after I have a 87 Chevy El Camino with the Choo Choo Customs pkg. I plan to give all of these away to good friends that had these cars when they were younger. Can’t wait, like I say, when you give, is when you truly receive! 😊

I had a chance to buy a 1968 Charger with a 383 back in 1979 for only $750, it had a big side swipe dent in the driver side rear quarter panel but it ran good. It was during high school so I only had $550 so I bought a 1964 Chevy Biscayne. I kind of wish I bought the Charger and restore it and paint it black like the car in Bullit.

@FranksModelWorks 5 месяцев назад

I know how you feel…now even that Biscayne is worth big bucks. I also built a Bullitt Charger: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Ekbg6MLxmYw.htmlsi=mNFRT8jAADr2IYOt

@BarryWinner2075 5 месяцев назад

@@FranksModelWorks That's for sure, now days they want over $10,000 for a 1960's - 1970's Dodge or Chevy even with rust all over it., I ended up selling my 1964 Chevy Biscayne for $600, in 1983 and bought a 1979 Mercury Zephyr for $2000. It was a pretty good car it had a 302 motor and ran great after I rebuild the carburetor, It also got about 26 MPG

@FranksModelWorks 5 месяцев назад

@@BarryWinner2075 my father had a ‘67 GTO that he abandoned on 1977 (I was 5 at the time). Years later I asked how on earth he could do that and he replied matter of factly “I paid $100 for that car…they were a dime a dozen when I bought it…it was rusted out after 10 NYC winters, and it wouldn’t cold start. I didn’t feel like paying a dime to call a scrap yard and have them pick it up, so I left it unlocked where guys who were into cars hung out. They probably scavenged it for parts and left the husk for Sanitation to drag away.” It actually made sense…
