got my Vette and Cobra survivors today. I wanted the Custom vette, but the drag vettes are cool too. Silver one has a hemi amd webers, red 9ne has a blower motor and tilt front end.. the Cobra has halibrands.

 

all I've done so far is wash the custom vette and replace the tires with AMT parts pack twin pins

 I have a set of unmelted wheels on the way as well. the goal is to preserve the build exactly how it is

Stopped into the Detroit Auto Rama today. After walking around for almost 10 hours  I came out with a couple of prints for the wall and 4 kits. The new stock Nova from Moebius,  reissue AMT Nova wagon, reissue  S10  and the 30 Ford coupe, 

Almost 15K steps for me in there yesterday. Bought the gasser even though I have one on order and when I got home the one from Model Roundup was on the porch. :) Also picked up a Johan AMC Rebel machine. That was a bucket list kit for me.

I did a wheel and tire swap but thats probably gonna be it for the foreseeable future. Im honestly enjoying just having it. I would like to polish the paint to bring some shine back. I tagged you in my 62 Fairlane Im messing with

My ebay score arrived today. I have a project in  mind for the Prowler trailer, since I'm enjoying the '55 Cameo build I couldn't resist the price for another, and I took advantage of a great offer along with combined shipping to snag the Corvette.

Does that later issue Cameo have the corrected cab windowsill? 
Original 55 had rear sloping sill. 57 Stepsides had correct cab but unsure of stockers. 
Nice haul. 

There is only one cab, so once it was corrected all kits produced after that will have the corrected one.

Got this yesterday, from of all places, wal-mart. $24.95

My Walmart never had models before, so I was "shocked" to see them there. Had my wife not been with me, I would have bought all four that were there ! 

 

That’s a good deal!
