  1. Put them on ebay as you seem not to have much attachment to them.
  2. And if you really must, there is always this beauty.....
  3. Didn't AMT make a 4 door Corvair? I swear I have a body in my stash somewhere.
  4. Cool build! And in case you need a Diorama idea....
  5. Oh yeah, he had some stories! He was responsible for hacking the Stock Car Charger 500 into the General Lee! LOL! Then there where the Revell stories..... But yes, Milestone was his baby after working with Action Collectibles. Lots of cool stuff.
  6. It is basically a copy of a Chenowth buggy
  7. My LHS bought out a collection and some of the car kits in the collection have started to trickle out onto the shelves, and this was one of them! Not a very exciting kit, but, it was the remnants of the old price tag that pushed me over the edge, Play Co Toys and Hobby, which used to be a bit from where I grew up and holds lots of good memories. Sadly, Play Co closed down in the late 90's to early 2000's.
  8. It is the identical kit, just the decals are different.
  9. Fame, Fortune, Women and the Exotic Locals Oh, you meant styrene models! I like cars.
  10. Current Charger generation was introduced in 2006, and now you noticed? LOL!
  11. Just learned last night that they are at Pegasus! So they should be out soon.
  12. From what my guy told me, they just hit the docks.
  13. Just heard they are on the docks at Long Beach. So stand by!
  14. Holy smokes! What a journey! LOL! Great write up! Thanks. I just wish they would make a whole new tool for this car.
  15. Some kits have absolute blobs for engines, like 70's MPC kits, and I will only detail the bottom it it is going to show. But some kits, mainly newer cars, have really boring engines that I really do not care about. So, either way, I am ok.
  16. Wow, that came out nice! I once asked the late Al Marcellus about Willy's driving technique about holding onto the side of the car, and he told me that Willy had not clue he was doing it! It was just a reflex to hold on from sliding around in the seat! He had to show Willy a picture of him doing before Willy realized what he was doing! LOL!
  17. Wow, how did I miss this two year ago! Very nice build of a very special car! Weird fact about this car is that the chute pack body was done first, then SPE had to make a chassis to fit it! And the only guy at the time that could fit in it and drive it was Larry Dixon!
  18. I think they are mostly carrying things they can sell for the S.T.E.M. school programs. Mine had the Rocket sets, aircraft, ships and stuff like the turbine kit. But no cars.
  19. Oh, the streamliner! I remember someone posting an old ad from a drag magazine from back then advertising those bodies, but I have never seen a pic of one in actual use. Some came close, but nothing like that.
  20. Well, the Badman is 1/24 vs. 1/25 AMT kit. And the Monogram kit was never really that accurate to begin with. Plus given that it was also an optional convertible no doubt made it worse for the Monogram kit.
  21. Yes it was https://www.motortrend.com/features/mopp-1006-1939-fiat-coupe-altered/
