In the mailbox todat was a Ford C model Stake truck which will eventually become this:

Went to the Jaxcon 2013 show today and came home with a Peerless Dodge WC-54 ambulance still in it's original shrink wrap for $10.00.  Also picked up a Testors SH-3H 1/72 helo, and a Hasegawa 1/48 scale SH-3H helicopter including Belcher Bits Canadian CH101 Voodoo decals, Gulf War Modifications for the CH-124A, Sonobouy Launcher, and Short Sponsons all for $40.00!  Couldn't pass that one up!  Brought my 14 year old son who patiently walked around with my all day!  Even got him a few kits too!  A good time was had by all!

Anyone know anything about the Porsche, when it was produced, etc, as I've tried looking on the 'net, but can't really find anything about it.

I would guess mid to late '60s based on what looks to be the original style Revell logo. I saw a few others from the same era/series(?) in eBay recently- a Ferrari and a Jaguar. Love that box art.

[jrherald420]

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

[crazyjim]

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

[Draggon]

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...

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.

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.
