MCM Ohana (6/6)

  1. That is killer! You have quickly mastered the weathered/patina look and this one is awesome. Nice work buddy!
  2. The target market with this particular kit is not us adult builders, it is the young kid who thinks the truck is cool or who has a relative that drives one and wants a replica. That said, haven't compared the earlier kit with this one to see if it could be kit bashed.
  3. Don't be surprised if Round 2 comes out with a 4wd version of the long bed in the next year or two, it's a natural. The question is if they can find any of the parts shown above.
  4. Won't be buying anything in the video, but when that 64 Chevelle hits I will be lined up to get a few.
  5. I want to say it was about 2 weeks, maybe 2 and a half. He ships from Canada and I was expecting it to take longer but was pleasantly surprised. I believe he will only let you order what he has in stock to avoid long waits on orders.
  6. So I have a weakness for the beloved Chevettes and have a couple of unbuilt model kits as well as a half dozen promos. Here is a sampling of what I have;
  7. Nice looking rig. Are you going to add any lights?
  8. Looks like the axles out of a GM truck, is that from a Revell kit?
  9. The Jeep CJ-7, the Bronco half cab, the '57 Bel Air, the 64 Impala and the 68 Firebird are all due out next month.
  10. There is a 70ish IH 1100 pickup offered by Robert Burns (Too Many Projects on FB) that is a cab and bed. He also has some first gen Scouts. Zaina here on the forum offers some early '60's IH pickups that are 3D prints, a bit more detail than the above 1100 pickup.
  11. I am in agreement on the bench seat and while we're at it, for many of the other trucks out there that were kitted with buckets. That Revell 64-66 C-10 grille has always bugged me. For the Dodge D100, check out Harts Parts Resins, he has some grille options for the Dodge pickups along with hoods. The Olson Bros had some nice tool boxes for pickups, maybe someone could expand upon them to include boxes for medium and heavy duty trucks?
  12. I am in Charlotte and suffer the same fate. I have made Wes's Model Car Corner my go to shop for new issues like this. He's near Johnson City TN and it usually is a next day or 2 day ship time, depending on how fast the trucks are running. Here is the link: https://wesmodelcarcorner.myshopify.com/ He also has a FB page and posts information on it regularly as well as nearly every week he has a live show on Thursday nights where he opens up new releases and shows what is in the box as well as shares news and updates on kits and what is in the pipeline.
  13. He came on the country music scene about the time my wife got me into country music and he was one of the entertainers I enjoyed. Sad to see him pass from such an awful type of cancer but he is at peace and no longer suffering. The band in heaven just got a little better.
