sadly no as there is a middle piece so they are one part. The springs mount to both top and bottom of the suspension which the top a arms are also one part with part of the strike plate ( Floor jack Jacking point) The bottom A arms have a flat part of the strike plate between them.

Last year I got the idea to do a Tribute build of the Kenner Smash Up Derby cars (Original set), But with a twist being ready to enter the derby. The AMT '57 Ford was bought at last years US 127 Garage sales . Luck struck Again this year with the Revell '57 Nomad ! Lighting altered the colors a bit The Fords hood/doors/trunk are actually a purplish color, and the nomad's door's/hood is sub lime Green. which is a close match to the Kenner parts.

depends on which kit it's from. If it's from the kit that has the opening hood, trunk, and doors then yes. if it's the '56 Del ray then no.

Looking for the lower A Arms from a Revell '57 Chevy/Nomad (yes the nearly unbuildable) model with the opening door's , hood, Trunk/tailgate.

There at least was one seller in the Jr.Fair building with decent prices. I did manage to get a couple from him, (Revell HRM '57 Nomad & Moebius '71 Ford Ranger) Paid $35 for both together Nomad $15, Ford Ranger $20

Found ONE seller at the Garage sales set up at Van Wert Fair grounds with decent prices on some of his items. Spent $35.00 at his stall ... Bought a Revell Hot Rod Magazine "Custom" '57 Nomad kit. Painted/lightly started $15.00 and a Open non-started Complete Moebuis '71 Ford Ranger pickup $20.00 Not a bad deal really. Seen other kit's at different vendors such as the '72 GMC Jimmy, AMT '57 Chevy But $35.00 for open recent issues that I can find at Hobby lobby for cheaper??

While the US 127/US 30 Garage sales start tomorrow , some were already open.( Van Wert Fair Grounds) Quite a few had Model kit's , But either they wanted full retail or even more for them! AMT Rat Fink Trailer kit $75.00 (bought from Ollie's for $20! Several recent issued kit's $35.00, and they were opened. One had models and Die cast that try's to charge a $2.00 "fee to pick one up to check it, And he also wants full retail for his kit's! The guy is there every year with the same things! I thought the reason for a garage sale was to sale things at a decent price, Not FULL BLOWN RETAIL Or Above!

Allowance? Well I got one when I was growing up, which didn't last long with a "Little Brother tax" . My older brother was sort of a bully to me when growing up. Also done some things /forced that shouldn't had happened. All that got swept under the "rug" by my Parents!

Years ago when the presidential aircraft at the then Dayton Air Force Museum were housed on the wright patterson air base. I was thin enough to walk through them , and had to watch out for static electric shock! The space that one tours through them is only about 19 inches wide! -

Got another one just an hour ago Slate Firm Insurence , and Krouger storres I'm guessing that those were supposed to be State Farm & Kroger..... -
More likely a QC issue.. I have the '69 galaxie kit . and used the white stripes on a semi truck kit. those didn't have an issue. The Rat Fink trailer decals (I have Three sets) so far none have had an issue. The Miller beer one's not wanting to stick now that was an issue! Round2 did replace the Payhauler 350 decals, the second set worked without any issues..

I still have trouble with my spelling as I tend to spell words by how they sound. I also have trouble with grammar as well due to a Learning disability. Which still gives me issues with that and math skills, Fractions don't compute well in my head. I understand the fraction just not multiplying them! -
Buying a new issue of a Round2 (amt) model only to find that the quality of the decal's is bad. International Harvester Pay Hauler 350. Decal's crumbled after being place in water. AMT Miller Beer Trailer decal's refusing to stick to the trailer. Had lack of adhesive on decal backs. So I had to coat the decal backs with Testors window making glue (aka cockpit glue)

I've been getting a lot of spam email sent not only to my spam mail, but also my regular email as well Misspelled works are a tipoff of it being a scam- Temu being spelled Temuu or Teemu. Omaha Steaks spelled Omaha Stteaks, Notice-Nottice, Delivery -Delivvery,and package- Packkage... There's ben other's that say they are from Tracctor supplly , and some other easy to spot scam email's. Any other's that you guy's have gotten that you noticed the bad spelling of??? I just delete the ones I get never open them!

Well I thought I finally got the decals I ordered off ebay. Just to find out all that was in the envelope was the cardboard and a bit of blue tape that would have held the decals in place. Then noticed the bottom of the envelope was taped closed with magic tape..
