  1. Almost ashamed to say it, but, I have never built one! I have most of these issues, but, I have yet to glue parts or paint anything! Time for a Quarantine build of this one, maybe.
  2. Thanks for the heads up, but, I already bought them three years ago.
  3. And for the most part, it is still about that, and some of what we are talking about has quite a bit to do with business opening. If we are still ordered to stay home, nothing much is opening.
  4. Los Angeles is, not the rest of California, or at least not San Diego
  5. Stores in San Diego County are still closed.
  6. Since Round 2 is going to keep popping out this kit in various guises, why not cast up a Six Cylinder to make it a bit more correct? It doesn't have to be a complicated addition to the kit, the six is a pretty simple engine to begin with! But yes, BBC in this never quite made sense to me. Although, a friend of mine actually raced one like this back in the 60's!
  7. I do have Evergreen as well, but Plastruct is what I originally used. Sorry to have confused you.
  8. It's the idea that intrigues me. And who doesn't have Plastruct in their arsenal?
  9. Yup, might have to grab a couple
  10. Round 2 for May
  11. Shouldn't be. But I just emptied out, just in case
  12. Nope, real car. It was the Mongoose car that was fictitious The McGee car was also real. This is the car after the Wedge part was removed.
  13. Not really, just go to kit shows and keep an eye out, I found one for only $20. Not mint, but it is a decent builder.
  14. It is an AMT 1968 Ford Falcon kit. Could be built as a Factory Stock, Drag Car or Custom. Tooling was then updated to a 69 And then turned into a Modified Stocker, and thus guaranteeing that we will never probably see a stock one again.
  15. This show is now Cancelled for 2020
  16. I used to ask the sales guy at a local Stereo Store here in San Diego to sell me the posters,but he said they where snapped up rather quickly by the employees and to just keep trying. At a certain point I moved along and they shut down.
  17. Our LHS is only open for pick up orders. No walking in, yet.
  18. I just thought they where fun to post, but I guess not
  19. I am still looking for this kit! Love these concept cars.
  20. Oh yes, I was fooled a few times by some Kit versions that where done really well! And yes, also about 30 something years ago! ? I remember going into a poster shop at the mall and they had a gorgeous poster of the Quattrovalvole and I asked the girl to please grab me a copy of it, and mispronounced it pretty badly that she corrected me on how to properly say Countach and not Countac ! LOL! Must have been around 1986 Then I scored a Alpine Electronics promo poster and I wish I still had that one!
  21. Oh, I know, I was the one that suggested that thread be moved.
  22. Slick lil build! Nice job!
