I want the ford rs/ mercur........

  those things are wicked cool and look a lot like a 85 gt mustang!

My biggest problem with my LHS is Customer Service. Last time I went to my LHS, instead of asking what kind of models I put together (since I was in the Model isle), both associates basically pushed  me to look at their selection of Gas/ Electric R/C cars because they have an R/C track in front of the store. 

 

Not to mention, I know that from a business aspect, they obviously make more money on the R/C cars versus Little Ol' Model Kits. And when I ask them to order a kit for me, it seems like it ticked them off.

 

Just like Larry said. I can shop the internet with ease, not have to worry about being bothered when I don't want to be or find someone when I have a question. Their is no pushiness to purchase something. Given I hate paying for shipping because it's unbelievably high, but with the cost of gas and driving a V8, it's worth it so I don't have to deal with traffic, other people, etc.   

I agree 100%   my lhs which I love because of the  fact that instead of ripping off magazine covers and  throwing them in the dumpster the drastically reduce the  prices  shrink wrap them up and throw em in a clearance bin!   I constantly get mcm mags and  scale auto for a couple bucks    only problem is when i'm in the  model kit aisle I don't get the  time of day..... they are too busy taking all kinds of money from people wanting to spend the big bucks on r.c. vehicles of varios types and  things,  if I ask  questions about  model kits I don't get answsers,  or look like i'm a  bother..... this makes me  mad  but the  l.h.s does have things that hobby lobby do not offer anda large selection of kits (especially model king)     they have a display cabinet with  buildups I once asked if anyone can display their  work and I was told yes so I  brought some of my many  buildups and was looked at like I was stupid when I asked to display my workings...... geesh  double edged sword I say

anything from amc would be sweet!

 amx, ambassadors, javelins,marlins,eagle, any old jeeps(original amc) like the  j-10 / honcho pickups, ramblers, rambler s/c  any hursy optioned amc'  levis denim version gremmys(grmlin)  i'm sure theres other I've forgotton
