Love that color! I wish I still had a place to use an airbrush.

The hood looks great.  I'll tell you, though, punctuation would make it easier to read your post.

An unbuilt Johan 1962 Plymouth Fury kit

 

 

I got one of my grails today. I went to the annual winter swap meet today and found this. It is partially built, but that's fine with me since I am going to build it.

 

On the subject of Fury's, Got a set of Parking lights from a fella in NY for my '69 Fury, also got some supplies to tackle a few more area's of it

 

 

Gave them a good polish too

 

Stuff I picked up a few days ago, still have to go get a few other autobody supplies so I can finish tackling my bodywork.

The parking light lense you polished look great....would like to know what you had used on them....I am guessing Novus Products?

 

Good luck on both projects...

 

Cheers Don...

I'm actually two days late with my results. At a contest on Saturday I was able to pickup the new Revell of Germany (Moebius) International Lonestar semi kit for the wonderful sum of $40, a Revell Ford Aeromax kit, complete but open in a plastic tote, all for $10, an original, sealed MPC Truckin USA 78 style Dodge van kit for $20 and another vendor was selling kits at the rate of 3 for $20 so I was able to select a Lindberg Dodge Dakota, Revell 67 Plymouth GTX and a Revell 70 Superbird, all sealed. There was also a participant at the show walking around with a sealed MPC Dodge Warlock kit that he was trying to sell. All I've been looking for is a set of decals for this kit. After talking for a bit he decided to open the kit and sell me just the decal sheet.

 

All in all, a very good model acquistion day.

Believe it or not I stopped into a local Resto shop and asked one of the guys what they use, would you believe plain old Meguirs Scratch X 2.0

 

It worked it better than I thought, I did a few of the dash lenses as well.

 

 

I'm impressed with the way it worked to be honest.

Edit:

 

This is as close to a before shot I have of the dash lenses

Goodbye spray cans. You ain't gotta go home, but you can't stay here anymore. 

 

[cobraman]

I got yet another Cobra for the collection.

 

[jaydar]

I got a '68 Revell Firebird today. It is the Monogram boxing (2004?). Decals look good and the detail level is really good too. I have the Model Car Garage PE set.

You can keep the spray cans - just decant and you have pre thinned paint ready to spray. You can control how much comes out, now, and no more spray bombs.

I picked up a pair of real gems today from Mike at Hayes Hobby House, prepare to start drooling!  :drool:  :drool:  :drool: 

 

Both are VINTAGE AMT '32 Fords, in a box design I've never seen before. The Vicky has the grille glued into the shell, and the 427 is mostly built. There's some damage from the tires on a few parts, but nothing major on this one...

 

 

 

 

 

Here's the '32 Roadster, it's got no parts glued together, but the grille shell and the hood have tire damage...I'm still happy I got 'em!

I have multiples of these myself.....They were Ford Motor Company give aways....

There is a 36 Roadster / Coupe and a 25 "T" in this group also....

Don't know of any others, but that doesn't mean there weren't any....

Enjoy...
