  1. Krazy Kool!
  2. My friend used a color for the Burger King NASCAR Stock Car and it was a good match. I don't think it is Grabber Orange. More like 50/50 bar orange or secret sauce
  3. So you are talking about the Revell Snowman Charger I painted mine in Testors Candy Red over a Gold base.
  4. I have never built this kit. I have one somewhere, but I never put it together. Now, I just might.
  5. And we wait, and wait, and wait........
  6. I know someone made an arm in resin, but, I can't remember who. You can also just scavenge one from a Revell Driver figure and prop it up a bit.
  7. The Bearded Charmer has spoken! I see the van in my future, and maybe the Lightning as well. And yes, i do want the Slimer figure ?
  8. Well, if you look closely at the page, you will see that it is being sold by a third party and not Walmart, ala Amazon. So no, Walmart is not charging that much. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Revell-Foose-69-Camaro-Z-28-Plastic-Model-Kit-Multi-Colored/37552149
  9. They seriously need to do a new tool for this car. A 1970 and a Not a 1970 tool would be awesome.
  10. The mere fact that Garlits had the forethought to save all these cars is to be commended. Most of them ended up as rusty tubing in backyards and garages. Some where bought up by a shady parts dealer back in the 70's and early 80's who parted them out and cut up the chassis. He did what he could with what he had and saved all that he could. All this while still campaigning a full race team. Sure, the cars are not up to "Concourse" condition, but at least they are all together and accessible to us Nitro types to go see them. Personally, I have never been there, but I hope to remedy that situation soon. And one must also keep in mind that Museums are not exactly profit makers and depend mostly on sponsors and donations. And for someone that saw this car before the restoration, at the Hot Rod Reunion years ago, I appreciate what he has done with it.
  11. Thank you, Sir! Hard to believe how desirable that kit has become, given how undesirable those cars where for a while! I wonder if the tooling still exists?
  12. Heck yeah! That looks nice and yes, the name is great!
  13. That is nice! It just looks right!
  14. Thanks! Most of the stuff you see is the stuff I like to stare at! Sadly, I have more in storage And that would be.....? Thanks, and sorry to hear about the Tornado, that is something I just can't wrap my brain around. But then again, we have earthquakes and wildfires, and those suck as well.
  15. There is more than just "American Iron!" Variety, and way more detailed kits, are the spice of life! I like it all!
  16. Big Daddy awaits that big check from you to do the paint properly!
  17. Super Sharp! Nice build!
  18. They show up once in a while, but the prices are a bit crazy
  19. No doubt, but, it would have been nice for them to have made a few changes here and there to keep it more fresh, like adding the second seat and new wheels. We can kit bash all we want, but it is nice when you don't have to.
  20. Shame the could not at least do some different wheels for them. The front ones could be a bit thinner.
