1/8 scale Pocher Alfa Romeo Spider Touring

Wow! A spectacular build that qualifies as a work of art! Stunning... simply stunning! -
Looking for the identity of this 1/25 kit
'70 Grande replied to '70 Grande's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Thanks for the info gentlemen... now I'll have to figure out what to do with it! Alan; would appreciate any pics of your built-up that you can add to this post -
Found a bag of 1/25 car parts in the deepest, darkest corner of my parts box. Does anyone recognize the pieces shown in this pic? Any idea what kit they came from? Are they old? Trying to determine if I should attempt a salvage-build out of them... obviously I'd need to find a bunch of parts to sub-in if I go that route. Any thoughts regarding what kit these parts came from would be appreciated.

To me, this kit is a great example of a kit from the past that captures the look of the 1:1 really, really well. Back when it was first released, I doubt there were many saying it "doesn't have the correct fender-shape" or "needs a bigger windshield-opening"... or any of the variety of critiques that kits issued today receive. AMT did some really good models back then and this is a perfect example! Your build looks terrific... just how I remember these 1:1 Torino's from back-in-the-day... well done!

I wonder if the tires in that Scout kit are the same ole' 2-piece ones of past issues?
-
I've been searching for one of these Elva kits for at least a decade... they rarely pop-up on eBay and when they do they usually get big $'s. Your build looks terrific!

Trumpeter 1/200 scale "Titanic" model ship..
'70 Grande replied to Deuces ll's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
If my calulations are correct, this Titanic kit would be a bit over 35"-inches in length. -
That is quite a find Restoman... that Chevelle kit in just about any condition would go for $100+ out on the "Bay", and as you describe it, probably $200+!

Wow! That is a stunning transformation and build!

Agree with all of the comments listed above... thanks for keeping this venue up-and-running (and growing), at a time when we've experienced more of the opposite in our world today.

Got one of my final "Holy-Grail" kits just a few days ago... won't start building it just yet as I need to get familiar with all the tiny bits and pieces!

'66 Skylark GS (Craftsman) Glue Bomb Rescue/Rebuild
'70 Grande replied to Snake45's topic in Model Cars
I have always felt the Buick Skylark was the overall-best-looking of GM's mid-1960's A-bodied cars, and your restoration proves that point; well done Snake... well done! -
Just completed a trade with Gloozalot; couldn't have gone any better! Thanks George!
-
Wasn't too excited until you added that Sandcat Dune Dragster... don't think that kit has been available for some time!

Any up dates on the Moebius chevy II gasser ?
'70 Grande replied to Mr mopar's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Thanks for sharing these pics, Pickles! What they show certainly looks good! -
1/25 AMT 1964 Olds Cutlass F85 Convertible
'70 Grande replied to Casey's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Got an email this afternoon from Model Roundup; my pre-order is on it's way to me... hallelujah! -
Any news of Revell do something this year !
'70 Grande replied to Mr mopar's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Looks like a couple of kits I'll be wanting to purchase here... any idea what kit has "leaked-into" the bottom of that Henry-J photo? Looks like it might be an early-1970's Mopar. -
Beautiful build! It's too bad these old Desoto and Chrysler kits are long-gone and unlikely kits for a new-n-improved new tooling.
-
Stunning build! Your paintwork is phenomenal. It's a bit of a shame that the Hemi Shaker air cleaner is so large that it hides some many engine details... sure would be fun to have a 1:1 of this build parked inside my garage!
-
Fantastic build! Sure would like to see a picture or two of it sitting on its own wheels!
