Already done, Jack.   All mods on the Brooklin.  All I lack is the two door wagon.

That is a very impressive Studebaker dealership operation John.  I love it!

@john-quilter. John, I just received my '65 Barracuda in white today. Same problem as yours- the chrome strip on the passenger side rocker panel had lifted. Easy fix with some white glue.

I'm using clear nail polish as a glue.

And on the later partworks Barracuda I did up a convertible.

That's one sharp looking Lark. I've always thought that these Larks were good-looking automobiles. I remember seeing quite a few of these while growing up in Western New York.

I received my gold-brown '65 Barracuda today and I am very pleased with the quality.  Strangely enough the same passenger rocker chrome strip had become partially detached during transit.  I just had to dab a bit of glue and reset it; no problem at all.

Finally starting to see some progress with Ace Models order. After a couple of weeks of back and forth, it looks like my initial order will be shipped today. I am going to wait until I receive them to set prices, to make sure there are no hidden tariffs. There shouldn't be, but US Customs makes up the rules as they go along...

@daveg Dave;  do you happen to know if the models you show in your post are the only ones done to date by Ace?  The Nova looks interesting.

NEO did a 1966 Chevy Nova hardtop in metallic blue or red.  Some on Ebay currently.
