Another buy off eBay, it's probably the dearest model car kit I've ever bought, but I've been looking one for a while now ...this one's the full detail kit including the turbine engine, I could have bought the skill 1 kit, which was basically a un-built promo and there £20 plus

Remember to test fit everything on it--before and after painting....most had fit issues but could be fixed.

Thanks for the info' I pretty much do that with all my builds anyway, I have heard about the fir problems of some of the Jo-Han models, but it's a car that I have always like the look of, and the Chrysler Turbine was made the year I was born .....

Got this at the flee market for $9. Not what I normally buy, but I remember building one when I was little and thought it might be fun to do it again.

I Just picked up the new '62 Corvette at my LHS .  It looks really nice !

Any of you in Tampa should go by Charlie's Hobbies on W. Waters Ave .   His selection of kits is better than Michaels and his prices are alot better than Hobby Lobby ( an hours drive for me ) .

Wow, I've had two of those Dodge 330 kits. They didn't have any problems with the body. The kit looks very nice, and it's already on the bench :lol: !
