  1. yep Harry No Tricks a right hand drive "Toyota" cavalier
  2. thats cool a toyota / chevy cavalier kit, i'm not much of a 1/32 scale fan
  3. Ironically I just put a windsheild in one of these cars today! made me think of these pictures..... I personally took whilst overseas
  4. I can only hint to you that to this very day we have the exact same thing going on...... just think the the last time you saw a "toyota" matrix save that thought and then put the image of a "pontiac" vibe into your mind.... Do we see whats going on here??
  5. resurrecting an old thread for you (Faust) this is a pic of the 3 versions i have
  6. yessir they have 3 escort kits,(may be more i only know of the 3 i have) i know evil benny has a kit that i don't an amt version maybe? all mine are revell kits
  7. very awsome that maroon is what i used for my "crimson cat" mercury capri foxbody i'm working on
  8. already dilegently modifying the front end of the orange body mating it with an "escort" front clip with some modification to make a 1987 ford escort "exp" bought zap a gap this past weekend now i just need to remember to "borrow" my zip kicker from my work van tomorrow vs a face your mother could kiss lol still love the old front end vs escort face!
  9. thanks james can't wait to paint a mopar in that tamayia purple colour and paint the chevy blazer boondocker project in that "Root Beer" brown will look good with the yellow "boondocker" decals
  10. got the sealed stang on saturday with the pontiac, got the paints blades and exacto z blades yesterday (trip to mobile alabama) they have a hobby town usa (open sundays) awsome!! the other "blue" exp showed up today want to say I have one more blue exp (sealed) on its way another pontiac fiero (red kit) and another sealed foxbody mpc "snakebite"
  11. Got the other factory sealed "blue" kit of course I opened it!! want to say theres a second blue one on the way.... sealed as well I think Identical kits!! as previously stated in the thread earlier altho there are different decal sheets the chrome is more intact on the blue kit luckily no tire burn marks on the glass of the blue kit either oh tinted glass vs clear glass as well very cool kit
  12. i just take the good with the bad........ i thought originally that mpc has Boo Booed the interior panels on the early foxbody mustangs 79-82/83 era the doorhandles were molded by the bottom of the doors by the map pockets i thought this was all to wrong and upside down ( i owned a 1985 mustang gt) by 85 they had already moved the door handles to the top of the door panels on the foxbody cars, i had gone and looked at my factory brochures and interior reference internet pictures sure enuff older ford fox body's had door handles at the bottom of the doors!! they did i want to say for sure for the 87-93 interiors changed those parts (retooled)?? with the doorhandles in the correct spot at the top pf the door panels...... so i guess they do their research sometimes??? on the same note onthe foxbody's 84? may have been 85 started the split folding rear seat in the back seat, that part was basically backwards molded9 the rounded part (outside edge) of the rear seats actually faces inside and the square edge of the seat is on the outside i've taken the time to correct this on any of the ones i work on (fairly easy fix) (will post pics when i find them) there may be pics of that on my in progress fox mustangs thread too...... i just in summary go with the flow fix something if its a major flaw anything minor i just roll with it
  13. ya'll know i'll be in on this one!! even tho my lively hood is 79- 86 four eyed foxes i also love the 87-93 i don't discremenate!! when you think about it the sn95 is just the little brother of the fox its almost the same undercarrige all those years i want to say even seats were pretty much interchangeable on 1:1's for many years due to the chassis being the same?? i could be wrong tho
  14. was that based off a promo or they made a kit of it?? i love all amc's!! even the eagles
  15. very neato!
  16. very cool! i have a fox mustang iv a very similar paint scheme, except its a bronzy color over black
  17. pretty cool scaveging to make something work out!
  18. where does one get all the japanese kits from in one sitting like that? awsome kits!
  19. i got my ford van rebuilders from flea bay got some thick paint to take down may need to put up some part need adds eventually too!! one looks to be the ford 4x4 offroad van by mpc, the other one i am not sure but it had fender flares had teardrop windows and moon light windows glued to the roof has graveyard? looking murals decals on the side...... its set up as 2 wd sedup both are ford and the bodies look the same lots of work ahead but should be fun one will be a dually van (using ford fender flares from old 53 flipnose kit) http://www.ebay.com/itm/141188882725?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
  20. i just like all the work they are doing retooling all the nice old mpc models and older amt kits! way too go!!
