very old 1/32 model kits palmer and pyro 1960's

18 May 2013 - 04:20 AM

  I recently got off the bay a couple very old (1960's)  in great  shape model kits and some empty kit boxes

 maybe someone on here collects 1/32 stuff the kits may be worth way more than the 18$ I paid 1 is a palmer 29 chevy  convertible

the other is a pyro   model t complete with  brass colored chrome parts tree,

   and some empty boxes from other kits (just the boxes)

 

 open to anything let me know what you have


vintage 1979-1984 mpc fox body fords

18 May 2013 - 04:10 AM

    I am looking to get some other subjects that interest me...... so a couple at a time i'm going to let go of some of my mpc mustang kits, probly only 1-2 at a time to see what comes up in trades.....

    I do not have the ability to post pics, using old phone for mcm purpose

  1) kit is the "snakebite"

  the other kit is

   2) the "turbo " cobra mustang

 both of these kits usually sell pretty high on ebay and have a pretty high value in my model car pricing guide

 iam checking over completeness of the kits as the condition is used!

    I know I have mixxed and matched  parts from the many of these kits I have

  I know at one point I separated all the ford turbo 2.3 turbo motors as each of these kits had a turbo 4 or the v8

 

the condition as of all my stuff is used!  some assemblys could be glued(engine halves) etc

 

open to a lot of stuff I stick to cars and  trucks

been searching for amc products other than gremlins and ramblers  (javelin,ambassedor,amx)

  jeep j-10's or others

 65'-newer pickup trucks 70's ford trucks and bronco's

 

mopar cars, and a 75' d body truck

  throw other offers

 I also like gluebombs of "good" subjects and junklots parts etc

 

each one of these kits I think is worth 2.5-3 regular kits,

  or 2 harder to get out of production kits

I do accept offers of partial kits as long as theres enuff to complete a vehicle

 

I've also been searching for........

1980's vehicles      dodge Omni, Chevrolet chevette, citation, Monza(70's?)ford exp's and escorts, sho Taurus,

 

I am off to go over kit instructions and verify completeness of my trade item(s)

  I am on the fence about   my pace car mustang  (very expensive to get) the mpc brand very nice kit but it will take a lot to get this one away  from me    (cougar bronco, funny car model king set anyone?)  so many model kits not enuff $$ to buy them on ebay

  so thts why we have the trade section  :)

 

sorry to have written a book


glue and primer use for fresh resin kit.....

07 April 2013 - 07:28 AM

  Going to modify the notchback mustang body and change the nosecone(front clip) to a 79 pacecar look which is very similar to 82 gt look). I'm needing to know what glue to use (I always use testors orange) and what type of primer to use on the "resin" before paint goes down. Also what do I strip a resin body with had a bad experience stripping a dodge demon body I had in resin.... What types of scribing tool should I use to freshen up panel lines? I typically use the new no.11 blade bacwards any help much appreciated!

amt "millenium" kits what's so special?

03 March 2013 - 10:19 AM

Like the title states what is or was so special about the amt millenium kits I came across the gt fox mustang I see no difference between it and the regular amt kits unless the difference was on or in the decal sheet? I see no difference on the instruction sheet or the parts layout maybe it was a limited run re issue?? Any input is aWsome :)

advice from all hardcore ford guys

11 February 2013 - 04:20 PM

Especially mustangs! Any ford guys ever thought of making a "mach. 1" from the revell 99' cobra? Looks as though the revell gran torino gt kit has a perfect looking shaker hood setup I need to compare book pictures of cobra hood vs mach 1 hood I think it could be done without too much modification hardes part would have to be wheels?
