om617 Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 It's the Dart Phoenix. Looks to be an exact replica of the Johan kit. Steve Thanks for the info. Model looks fantastic. This is a love and hate design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bandit1 Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Bandit1 - The 1960 annual kit by SMP was a 4 dr sedan, I have a couple restorables around. Real cars were 4drs only until April 1960. There were some 1961 - 1963 4 dr corvair models by Palmer and/or Premier but they are pretty funky looking. Cool... I will have to find one of the smp ones laying around somewhere unless you can spare one of your other ones and find the 64 parts I need to convert mine...lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordairgtar Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Got a Surf Woody in our model club raffle last Friday and also got a Ford inline six from an old Falcon kit. Did not know what it was until someone told me what. That engine was free in a box of parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike999 Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Today's haul from the local flea market. Yes, the Hess Training Van is missing the door (like many of them). But for $10 I can make a door. Then I have to track down an old Toronado/Eldorado kit for a detailed chassis. And interior parts to make it a stock GMC Motorhome... Also found a vendor selling #61-80 wire gauge drill indexes. Bought several of those, since the little ones break so easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Model purchases are a solid one in my view, frivolous yes, but a great hobbyGood for you man, that is a sweet haul of awesomeness!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vintagercr Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 The other day my holy grail came in the mail, 1968 Chrysler Hydro Vee boat and motor. It was missing the trailer, but it is a start. Built the kit version in 1968. Today I got a Time Machines '57 Chev Sedan Delivery that I will build as a Jr. Stocker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the feeling John. I do this all the time. For the past week, every time I come home for lunch, I look on the front step to see if my 9 jars of MCW paint have arrived. No luck yet, but I'm sure it will be here soon. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
