Wildrice Posted April 2, 2006 Share Posted April 2, 2006 I just picked up this kit at a lil show on Sat. The kit is molded in black. I have another kit just like it but molded in aqua. Anyone know why and which kit is older? Just curious. I can post a pic if needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordairgtar Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 I'm almost afraid to open mine. LOL. Towards the end, Johan used whatever plastic that was in the hoppers. I do have a Turbine car molded in army man green. Remember those toy soldiers? The Turbines also were molded in bronze and white. As far as your Olds is concerned, I have heard of them being molded in tan, white, red, black, and aqua. I also have various SC/Ramblers in white, dark green and blue. I have a blue Marlin and I have seen a red one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Kingsley Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 Mine was molded in white...I got one of the last ones, from Okey's Wharehouse find. Didn't come with tires, but that's OK as I built it as a slight custom. With Johan kits, like Gregg said, it's like a Pot-Luck...you never know what you will get! I have a 72 NASCAR Torino in semi-translucent Orange and two in white, and my Heavenly Hearse is molded in bright blue! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildrice Posted April 4, 2006 Author Share Posted April 4, 2006 Thanks for the info. I didn't realize they molded stuff in so many colors. I still wish the would reissue some of the kits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordairgtar Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 I , too wish the kits would come back, but that aint likely to happen as the molds were either stolen or destroyed or thrown away. Mr. Oakey has a few molds but not the entire catalogue. I think he may even have the Mercedes molds but those are missing tire molds.
