deuces wild Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Round 2 just released it.. The Garlits WynnsCharger dragster kit.. Been to lazy to go out and buy one.. I built the original back in '71 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unclescott58 Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 The MPC '72 Impala is high on my list too. (Miles, all I've got to trade is a built up '73 Caprice.) An MPC '67 Bonneville convertible. And AMT's '68 Lincoln. AMT's GMC Astro 95 with the turbine engine. AMT's Open Road Chevy Van. And any MPC early 70's Dodge or Ford Van, with the side windows and rear seats. There are several more like a '65 Imperial convertible. But, the above are the big hitters for me. There is one odd kit I'd jump at if I could find one at a reasonable price. The MPC '73 Caprice with the option to build the RCMP version. Not a big fan of the '73 Caprice (and you'll note I have one). But, the RCMP police car would be very cool. Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ERIK88 Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 A kit of e holy grail itself would be nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake45 Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Almost any of the original AMT annual kits from 1965 to '69, especially the '66s and '67s, in their original boxes. I've managed to acquire several of them in the last few years. My favorites are prolly '66 Skylark, '66 Barracuda, '66 Mustang HT/Convertible, and '66 Corvette roadster. AMT '65 Chevelle, either original annual or the AWB funnycar. JoHan '68 Javelin with the Logghe-chassis funnycar option. Also, any other '68-'70 Javelin, or the AMT AMX with the funnycar option. MPC '33 Chevy Sedan Delivery. MPC '66 and '67 Bonneville hardtops. I'm sure I'll think of others but the above is a good "core" list.

bbowser Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 This is my "holy grail". They come up on eBay from time to time for stupid money, I'm not yet ready to shell out hundreds of dollars for any kit. Built it (badly) as a kid, saw the real thing at time trials at Indy in '67.

om617 Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 AMT 1964 Buick Wildcat and MPC 1970 Charger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake45 Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Only one I'm missing is the amt 65 riviera That's a common enough kit, reissued many times and I'm sure it will come around again. Unless of course you just MUST have the original box. I think the original instructions are online. If they're not, I'm pretty sure I still have them.

gtx6970 Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 (edited) My holy grail kit changes as I find it. Fortunately,,I have most of the kits I've ever really lusted after. And by todays standards I am in most of them pretty cheap My top five are as follows Top of my list though is the Barry Setzer Vega AA/FC kit I have this one both as a nice builtup and a sealed untouched original kit Followed real close by the Color Me Gone 1968 Charger AA/FC kit . Have one as a builtup,,,I will find the unbuilt someday if the funds will ever allow (had one sealed inside and foolishly sold it many years ago ) I have a real nice built of a Charle Allen Dart AA/FC ( I bought it exactly as shown here ) Someday would like to have an unbuilt version for the stash Johan 1969 GTX ,,,I've got a decent builder and really want an unbuilt in the box kit Johan 1970 Road Runner , Again have a decent builtup,,,but really want an unbuilt to go along with it Edited November 8, 2014 by gtx6970 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob terry Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 I think it is MPC. The Carl Casper Telephone Booth T show rod. I remember my father building it in the late 60s or very early 70s. I don't think it's ever been reissued. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StevenGuthmiller Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 I already have most of mine. At the top of the list were the Johan '61 Plymouth Fury & the '66 Chrysler 300. I now have both of those as well as a few others like the Johan '61 Chrysler New Yorker, Johan '67 Plymouth, AMT '58 Ford, just to mention a few. The only ones I have left to find are: Johan '65-'66 Plymouth Fury MPC '67 Pontiac Bonneville AMT '60 Ford pickup AMT '67 Ford Galaxie & then.....who knows!

Deathgoblin Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 I've pretty much got mine: Jo-Han Chrysler Turbine car (full detail) and Dr. Krook's Medicine Show (Patent Pending). The show rod was a glue bomb, but it wasn't bad to take apart and was complete. All I had to do was glue the windshield frame back together. There are others I would like to have, but aren't as critical, like an Aurora Aston Martin DB-4 and a Chevy Vega (non-drag version). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghostmech Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Funny this topic comes up the day I received my HOLY GRAIL kit! A couple of weeks ago I was contacted out of the blue to see if I wanted this kit. I figured the fella wanted the usual 800.00 or more as when they occasionally show up on Ebay which I could not justify....even for a "grail" kit. I ended up paying $250.00 and it is complete and un-built....great find and great buy (thanks John) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
