MCM Ohana (6/6)

  1. I've gotten some non model items shipped in a zip lock bag!!!!!
  2. Went to a ffew stores while on Thanksgiving travel. All had normal stuff. I have to keep an eye out for the new AMT/R2 wave......anyone else???
  3. I have my credit locked at all 3 reporter's. I get email alerts for all transactions other than those from bill pay. I do not do any banking on cell. I have all of his suggestions in place. I will add never use a debit card anywhere you do not do regular biz. Use a CC while traveling.
  4. Yep....the Ford 9" rear became the standard rear for almost all Cup cars until Gen7. It is kinda a poor mans quick change. I run them in my 46 Ford and Mustangs. thx
  5. Looks like a glue failure. I do not allow decals to sit in water. Dip for 10 seconds and place on damp towel to 'cook'. Other than that not your failure....decals failure.
  6. OK....this is where it would be nice if Randy's NASCAR model forum was still here. By 72 NASCAR did not require STOCK suspension on Cup cars but the wording was 'Stock type'. So if showroom car had coils up front and coils out back with trailing arms a 72 Torino could use GM truck trailing arms and many did. BUT Bobby Allison build his Monme Carlos in his shop and he used stock location trail arms (short) So the basic rule is 'Stock Type' but location points and manufacture was FREE.
  7. The AMT 72 Torino lit is a rebox of the JoHan kit. The MPC kit was a new body on the NASCAR chassis MPC had been using in the series. IMHO MPC did base the body on the JoHan Torino because ALL parts swap between the 3 kits. Hood is an exact fit....Grilles swap perfect etc. This parts box build is a mix of all kits...
  8. I may have a set of JNJ of that car. If that will do I'll check.....
  9. Nice work...love a movie car!
  10. Roanoke Rails hobby shop is closing next week. LOTS of trains but a full line of all plastics, supplies and Tamiya paints. Been going since 1988. Sad but I get it.
  11. Hit 3 WM in 2 states....no kits
  12. He had a closure earlier this year IIRC........I use Indycals and like them. Hope just a break and not issues.
  13. I really like those kits. Wish they'd retool all the goodies and reissue them. Thanks
  14. Not available since the 70's. I'm happy to get it. If it was a Chevy truck not seen since 1973 we'd need a truckload of Depends!!!!
