What did you get today? (Model Car Related Items)


Recommended Posts

Bought this today.
Brings back alot of memorys from when i was little and my dad sometimes drove a Volvo f12 dumptruck when his N12 dumptruck was at the shop getting repaired.
I also drove one from time to time when i worked as a mechanic to pull trailers in to the shop.
I could have bought the new release from Italeri but for a true scandinavian truck they always have 3 axles to be able to handle the wintermonths.

Maybe i make it in to the dumptruck my dad used to drive or i try to make it look like revells volvo f12 australia did, or just stock and paint it like the one i used to drive from time to time during my 7 years as a truck mechanic.

Last night while searching for one of the headers for the future1/16 Nomad project I'm amassing for, I found all of these. Off road tire/wheel sets that I completely forgot I bought many years ago. Now I have to find some projects to use them on. This morning I raced out to the Lobby (they still have 40 percent off model kits) and grabbed a Firestone F 150. I have some extra blue metallic that would look nice.20211204_082253.thumb.jpg.5db0b0137ef2e2898e109f1fda562ae5.jpg20211204_082309.thumb.jpg.228f5e29047b67bdcbc8a8c1d966037a.jpg20211204_125209.thumb.jpg.92e6fa3992e8211708b42acc86e32179.jpg20211204_082253.thumb.jpg.5db0b0137ef2e2898e109f1fda562ae5.jpg20211204_125044.thumb.jpg.7f99c78a78ae8e4389e7ba6fa1622c84.jpg20211204_125209.thumb.jpg.92e6fa3992e8211708b42acc86e32179.jpg20211204_125044.thumb.jpg.7f99c78a78ae8e4389e7ba6fa1622c84.jpg20211204_125044.thumb.jpg.7f99c78a78ae8e4389e7ba6fa1622c84.jpg20211204_125044.thumb.jpg.7f99c78a78ae8e4389e7ba6fa1622c84.jpg

Nice, I've never seen those available as accessory sets before.

I remember getting them off of ebay. This was so long ago that I completely forgot that I bought so many sets. I can only remember seeing the Aoshima set on that 4 door Toyota Hilux recently. The really big Set is from the So Real '75 Blazer I posted a few weeks ago. I was thinking of saving them for a 1/18 project. Clean off your benches boys! You never know what you forgot you had. Especially when you get past 55. 🤔

An opportunity presented itself last week...my good friend George Bojaciuk posted up some products available from "Canuck 3D model parts" ....being items of projects deep in my sub-conscience.... I pulled the trigger.   I bought the 1973 Chevrolet Monte Carlo conversion (front header panel/grill, w/ headlamp lenses,front bumper,tail light panel, rear bumper & added the stock full front bench seat) also snagged the '98 - '02 s10 front grill with light lenses & valance, & added the bucket seats with console.    Wow!!    Wylde's products are absolutely stunning!    THX George!!    Wylde!   ....I'll be hittin' up your site real short-like!!

I'm sure I'm on a mission to build some of the worst kits I've heard about, Lol. I picked this '73 Mustang up to see if the rumours are true. The '69 Country Charger and '77 Pinto certainly didn't disappoint in regards to what's labelled as a "bad kit" Since I picked up model building again I think I've found the type of building I like, rough but simple kits that need a little more than just gluing together.

I jus had to get this one. Sealed for 54$ inc shipping. Not much for sealed kits so if anyone have one to trade that is complete body wise, since I don’t care for any other parts in it, but opened I can be open for such a trade.

If no one have one to trade this one will be opened 😆
