'70 Grande replied to horsepower's topic in Wanted!
Give me a day or two to get these parts on the way to you. I'll let you know when they are in the hands of the USPS. -
Revell '56 Chevrolet 1/25 scale Bel-Air sedan chrome body trim
'70 Grande replied to horsepower's topic in Wanted!
Your shipping address is all. I'll remove the pieces from my chrome tree but keep some of the tree intact to support these pieces when they're in the hands of our US Postal Service. -
Revell '56 Chevrolet 1/25 scale Bel-Air sedan chrome body trim

Delton: I've got these 1/25 vintage Revell 56 BelAir chrome trim pieces for you. They are still on my chrome tree; can be seen in the middle of this pic. PM me. -
Chrysler Monte Carlo Concept Hawk/Moebius mashup 1:24 scale
'70 Grande replied to ea0863's topic in Model Cars
These are the kind of projects that really catch my attention! Beautiful execution. I bet there was a lot of work in determining how these components were all going to come together, and you did a phenomenal job making it happen! -
80's IMSA Mustang
'70 Grande replied to Chinacar's topic in Other Racing: Road Racing, Salt Flat Racers
Great looking build! I have one of these IMSA Mustang kits in line to start building some day in the near future... other than the old decals, did you have any other challenges when building this kit? -

I am looking to trade for the following front suspension pieces, radiator and firewall pieces from the 1/25 AMT/Round2 1967 Ford Mustang kit. These same pieces can be found inside the '67 Shelby GT350 kit and/or multiple reissues of each of these kits. Lower front suspension Piece #20 Front wheel spindles Pieces #21 & 22 Tie rod Piece #23 Radiator Piece #49 Firewall Piece #45 These pieces can be fresh-from-the-tree or from a built-up if in good, restoreable condition. I am not interested in a complete kit; just these parts. I have a fairly extensive parts box to trade from; I am located in Illinois. Thanks!

News from Nuremberg:Tamiya Giuilia Sprint GTA is back!

Mike, I'm sorry. When I read your post title, I overlooked the word Daytona and thought you were looking for a Charger kit. For that reason, I thought your request was too vague, and I responded in what I thought would be a helpful way. I was wrong for posting what I did. I'm publicly offering you my apology here Mark

Land Rover
'70 Grande replied to dust collectors's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Excellent build! I'm just starting this kit and have been doing a bit of 1:1 research. The kit's instruction book says to paint the engine block a metal color but I've also seen 1:1 pics showing a large variety of different engine block colors. Was curious if anyone has any info about 1:1 engine block colors for Land Rovers of this era? In some of my research, it almost looks like the factory painted the engine block in the same paint color used on the body... is that a possibility? -
1/16 scale? 1/24 scale? 1/25 scale? 1/43 scale? 1966? 1967? 1968? 1969? 1970? 1971? 1972? 1973? 1974? 2005? 2006? 2018? 2021? I'm not trying to be a "smart-a__" here, but your description doesn't really "say it all". Please provide as many details as you can whenever making a Wanted post... I don't think it's possible to provide too much information about what you are seeking... and pictures are extremely helpful, too! Thanks

Everything looks terrific on this build, but I especially applaud your spark plug wiring... it looks so 1:1 and I will be referring back to your engine pic every time I start wiring an engine for one of my own builds!

Upcoming MPC Reissues - '79 Nova and '73 Cougar
'70 Grande replied to Justin Porter's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Really like the new box art, but one thing that looks a bit "off" in the illustration to me is how close that front bumper is to the body and grill... the 1/1's front bumper extends forward quite a bit farther than it appears in this nicely done artwork. -
Nice build... especially when accomplished in 24 hours! I started thinking about where I would start if I were to attempt a build in 24 hours, and I can't answer my own question! Did you start with painting major components, like the body, interior tub, chassis? Then, while those are drying start on the engine and wheels? Anyone who's done a 24 hour build, help me understand your method!

GMC Crackerbox
'70 Grande replied to carsntrucks4you's topic in Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Stunning work here! Your modifications, detail, paint and weathering work are all exceptionally good. I have always wondered what motivated the truckers of the day to nickname these "Crackerboxes"... curious if it was just the way these cabovers felt like after logging a few hundred miles in one or if there's more to that nickname. -
Two outstanding builds! I often rate how much I like a build based on a question I ask myself, "How much would I like to have that model as a 1:1 parked inside my garage?" About 3-6 times a year, I see a build where the question's answer would be a resounding, "Yes!" I gotta say "Yes!" to that little White beauty you've posted here!

1966 Ford F250 Plow Truck
'70 Grande replied to Chuck Most's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Really like this build! Where did you get the tires for this build; did they come in the Moebius kit? -
1/25 AMT '65 Chevelle Funny/Drag Car kit Front Wheels wanted
'70 Grande replied to '70 Grande's topic in Wanted!
Just bumping this request up; anybody out there get one of these just reissued kits and decided they want to build it with different front wheels? I'm still searching for a pair... thanks! -
Jeff, I have these 1/25 6-lug wheels fresh-from-the-tree out of an AMT '37 Chevy "Salt Shaker" Coupe kit, I think. Sorry the pic isn't very good. PM me if you're interested.

Looking for (2) of the Chrome Front Wheels from this recently released 1/25 AMT '65 Chevelle Funny/Drag Car kit. Have lots of wheels or other parts to trade. I am in Illinois. Thanks!

Hopefully some pics tomorrow from the DAAM show. I see where the hardtop is being listed at some retail sites as having a trailer with it... wondering if it'll be the same trailer that was inside the convertible kit or maybe a different trailer?
