My version of the Mopar Garage


Green Duster

Recommended Posts

Brian, the diorama looks to be a "Modified " M R C Texaco station . I'm not impressed by it's contents as the building only contains a "Partial " building . Uh No wall on the "Shop side , no rear wall. It's way over priced for what you can easily scratch build . The pumps , well semblences of anyway , are supposed to be Wayne 505's . First, they're a scale foot too tall. secondly the Fishbowl lenses wern't ever used on a 1-1 pump.

Meanwhile , if thats not enough to fustrate you into oblivion, there is the "OBSOLETE " lift . Yes , that turkey wasn't used in most shops after 1930. Secondly, getting the pieces off the sprue .............. GOOD LUCK.

Hey, if you really need a plan to do a former Service station diorama in 1-25th scale , P- M me and i'll just send the measurements in a manilla envelope to you . Ed Shaver

Hey, i got the kit givin to me. My cousin was working out of a garage back in the 70's just like it. It was

just reversed. Maybe thats why I like it so much. I can see a small time resto guy working out of a shop

like that. Wish it could be me. The same shop my cousin had is 10 miles from me. Wish I had the funds

to be able to play out of it. This will work for me for the time been.

I still think your a great guy Ed!
