MCM Ohana

MCM Ohana (6/6)

  1. But then again, I was making minimum wage at the time, which was $2.00 per hour. I didn't have a car, but I was able to afford my own modest apartment.
  2. Probably not one of the cheaper stations around either, given its location. I can't say that I remember when full serve went (gradually) away, because I always self-served.
  3. Thanks, Bill! Why am I not surprised that you were the guy that figured it out?
  4. Not the Plymouth, the Ford, or the VW, but the silver car in the middle?
  5. Anybody out there tried a washable/reusable filter in their booth? I've got a Pace booth that takes 12x24 filters.
  6. Thanks - and I hope I'm not being too self-promoting here, but did you see the "Under Glass" version:
  7. I may have been the guy who posted that model? In any case, I've been greatly impressed with Scott's customer service (as well as his parts) over the years - he usually keeps his website up to date as far as what's in stock, but I'm sure things can slip through. I've occasionally had to wait for items to get back in stock, but he has emailed me when I let him know that I was interested in buying an item.
  8. In addition to the plastic kits mentioned above, there have been several resin kits in various scales over the years, and some ambitious folks have used slot car bodies as a basis.
  9. Just finished this one up - Wild Willie Borsch in the iconic Marcellus & Borsch "Winged Express" fuel altered . Started with the MPC kit, but backdated it to more closely represent the earlier version of the car. Reference is bountiful on this car, but it went through many changes during its existence - in fact, no two photos show it exactly the same, so my model doesn't represent any specific iteration, but rather a conglomeration of how the car might have appeared, if you get my drift. Driver figure, rear tires, and several engine parts came from Speed City Resin. Slixx decals. Lots of various items from the parts box and a few scratchbuilt pieces. Build thread here for more detail: Comments & questions welcome - thanks for looking!
  10. Came upon this while out riding a few days ago: Photo shoot, of course - just another February day in Los Angeles.
  11. Sorry, I don't have one for you, but Replicas & Miniatures makes a very nice resin version - probably even a little more accurate than the Vickie piece, in case that's important to you.
  12. It took some doing, but Willie is now on board: The end is in sight . . .
  13. The body is on and it's up on its wheels. Gettin' closer . . .
  14. Are you looking for a complete one? I have one that has some parts robbed out of it if that could work for you. Shoot me a PM if you want to work something out.
  15. Uh no - both charts state all blocks were black up until the '66 model year.
