Rob Hall Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Picked up one of the new Revell '69 Chevy Nova COPO 427 kits...nice. I had bought resin plain grilles, hoods, bench seat, hubcaps last year to do one of these, but then Revell came out w/ this kit...plan to do a stock COPO, a 6 cyl plain jane, and a beater.. Related to the new Moeibus kit, I saw a 1:1 International Lonestar semi on the freeway this afternoon, 1st one I'd seen in person..was pulling a white trailer w/ NASCAR #16 Trevor Bayne livery, heading to CA for the race this weekend, I assume.

Modlbldr Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 (edited) Didnt actually get anything model wise but model related. After 4 long years I finally got electricity in my 10'x20' storage building that will also be my man cave/model shop. I can finally do some models,make all the mess I want, drink some beer, jam some tunes, and I cant wait. I can also finally put up all my car swag that Ive picked up from the past drag races Ive been to. I still have to insulate it, get some shelving up, and install the brand new vinyl window I got for a case of beer, today has been a great day. Im thinking of taking some progress pics as I go along? SS76- Great to hear. It's always nice to ave your own place to work. Take pictures along the way. It's just as fun as in progress shots of a model. I've been working on mine too as i get the funds and time. Put a reclaimed heater and insulation in mine last year and put a vinyl window in that I paid $10 for. Make all the difference. On topic- today I picked up the last five "Clearance" jars of HOK paint at my LHS for $1.00/ea. Marked down from $4.50/ea. Can't wait to get the airbrush fired up again. Later- Edited March 24, 2011 by Modlbldr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lordairgtar Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 We had a model swap meet in South Milwaukee. It's usually small and consists of mostly sellers buying from other sellers. I was able to score a built up TR7 Triumph kit in yellow plastic, a 1/32nd scale Nova from Monogram I think. Very nicely done, painted nice and BMFed. I just have to paint the firewall. It will just go into the cabinet on display, it's that nice. I also got a PYRO 1/25th scale Volkswagen kit...multi piece body in glorious orange/peach plastic. Monogram 41 Lincoln, Monogram Rolls Royce, Nissan Skyline 4 door from the 60s. Nice haul, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jsimmons Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Just ordered a Hasegawa Group 88C Minolta Toytota and an Accurate Miniatures Gran Sport Corvette from the *same store* for less than $50 (with shipping, it was $58). I didn't realize pictures were kinda required, but I'll post 'em as soon as the kits are delivered Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
