  1. Picked it up at the local show I was selling at. Serious blast from the past!
  2. We do like'em and thank you. We where just kidding around, that's all! http://youtu.be/J1a8ZQxq8EE For some reason it won't let imbed the video. Oh well!
  3. I think you get from too much clutch dust!
  4. Nice build of something you don't see that often! One of my fellow classmates got one new for her high school graduation in 1986. Weird little car.
  5. So are you buying them to trade them?
  6. I once gave him the benefit of a doubt, but after he burned a good friend of mine, after giving me his word he would take care of it, that was the last straw. Trust him as far as I can throw him.
  7. Dang, glad I got what I got when I got it!
  8. Nice score, Stian! I would be happy with just the Camper on it!!
  9. This is cool! I just found a junker 911 that will now be a donor for one of these! Thanks for the inspiration and keep on building!!
  10. Those E.T. wheels have not been kitted, The closest are the spindle mounts in the Bantam Blast Altered, The Piranha Drag Car and some other AMT kits. The ones in the pic are the new bolt on style, the kit are spindle mount only. I have a spare set if you need them
  11. Other than ride height, that sucker looks spot on! Very nice!
  12. In California you can run your original plates indefinitely, if the car does not leave the state, otherwise new ones must be obtained when returning to CA. They have two tags, one is month of registration, that never changes unless there is a title change, and the year is on the other corner and that is renewed every year. My Xterra has current white reflective plates with blue text and my 72 Datsun 510 is running its original blue plates with yellow text.
  13. Yes, yes I do. And the worse part, I go out and buy something to else to build!
  14. I just use the model boxes with plastic grocery bags for padding! Cheap!
  15. Actually, those are pretty darn rare and I think it is aimed at R/C collectors out there. Considering that their R/C Baja Bug commanded some pretty high prices before it's re-release makes this just about right. And the Baja Bug is way easier to find!
  16. Alright! Alright! Take it easy on the guy, he is making my cars look way better!
  17. I like car and its fun
  18. Nice job, Tool Man!
  19. Taka! Taka! Taka! taka!
  20. And a very period correct '62 Catalina! Love the spaghetti plug wires!! Very correct color for 1962! http://www.ebay.com/itm/1962-PONTIAC-421-SUPER-STOCK-PRO-BUILT-1-25-SCALE-PLASTIC-MODEL-/201022484274?pt=Model_Kit_US&hash=item2ecddfaf32 I would not be so harsh if he had not advertised it as "Pro Build" sorry, Built!
  21. Looks like he has Grumpy decals to spare! He also built this beauty! http://www.ebay.com/itm/BILL-GRUMPY-JENKINS-1957-CHEVY-PRO-MOD-GRUMPYS-TOY-1-24-PRO-BUILT-MODEL-/201024318695?pt=Model_Kit_US&hash=item2ecdfbace7
  22. Thanks guys. This one came pretty close to being a missle shot across the garage a few times. Glad you like it!
  23. I like it! I like it a lot! Nice work!
  24. I can't remember if I posted this here before, so, here it is again if I didn't and sorry for the double post if I did! This little beast is pain the rear! The bed is glued permanently to the frame. I used the engine out of the Revell 40 Ford, wheels from the Revell 65 Chevy Pick up and the paint is Testors Inca Gold. Hope you like it!
