MCM Ohana (6/6)

  1. Nice work....always liked that one.....when was it reissued???? Must have missed it!
  2. And builder of the Icon model 'Dodge Fever' drag car. I met Jim at NNL Toledo.....a SUPER nice guy.
  3. Yes....BBO. Not a stock color in 73 but could be ordered. When I bought it Fawn Beige .....YUCK!.
  4. Part of the problem is pure numbers. For every McLaren F1 sold there are 20000 modern pony cars sold (Mustang, Challenger, Camaro) Even for the Vette I bet it's 100 to 1 ratio. Add that idiots can afford modern pony cars and they require no knowledge to own. I don't like banning by car type. We have two 2016 Mustangs, both well over 400hp and we don't do stupid stuff on the street. (we tore the nose off one at a open track day as it was set up to low) Doybt we'd ever attend a C&C event.....but if I wanted to I'll take my Javelin!!!! My Javelin at an event at the Greenbrier Resort......no issues at this event!! If you acted up....no invite next year!
  5. Well Done....great colors! I like those kits....wish they'd do the two other versions.
  6. GREAT looking build!! I like those IMSA and T/A Fords. The decals in those kits were bad for the first run, no white under the colors. Here is another Mustang with Indtcals decals for Willey! thx
  7. Box Art Horrible?????? Uninspired.....yes. I've had a hand in creating boxart......it's a lot of work. Atlantis must want a look and they are going with it. Also they are pretty new to this automotive sector of kits. ONE of my purposed that got altered MANY more times before finalized.......
  8. Back in the day I kitbashed Tunnel Motors and DDX40 locos......so not out of the realm if I need.
  9. Nice work! I caught part of 'Unstoppable' on TV the other night. Made me want to find a SD-40 to make the Denzel locomotive......
  10. $13 for the Trikes is to high....or I'd get a set.
  11. At one time I took 12 or so magazines a month. I am down to three now. But the magazines are killing themselves. Many of the mags I took went from 12 issues a year to 4....at a higher price!!!! So it's death by killing themselves as much as anything
  12. Very nice work!!! I have 2 connections to this car. Dad was Valvoline racing rep 1960-70 and jnew Bill. Then when Model King issued the kit I supplied the decal artwork......thanks
  13. Nice work....came out great even with challenges. I learned to drive in our family 73 Pinto wagon. A neat car really. Dad took me to a huge parking lot, handed me the keys and said 'Go drive'. $ speed manual....I did just that. Thx
  14. COOL!!!! Feared it was some type of hot rod elevator!!!
  15. It's their biz model.....fewer kits.....higher price.
