Nice Model! looking forward to the end result! Mike Alexander's Late Model Sportsman from Nashville 1978

I built my first model kit in 1970, and it was a Monogram Thunder Bug. I remember it being green. My mother has a picture of it in her home in one of he many albums. I'm wondering if the old molds might still be around and we might see it released from Atlantis one day.

1975 Ford Granada Ghia Four door, white with turquoise trim, vinyl top, and interior. 302, auto, power everything 105K. $500 in 1982 drove it for almost three years, rebuilt the transmission, and traded it in on a new Escort in 1985. Drove that for ten years. Looked like this with Turquoise top and trim

One of the first cars I ever rode in was a red 1960 Dart Phoenix 2 door. I was a baby. The 4 door Phoenix was created from a 2 door by some modeler in the past. Johan never made a 4 door Phoenix and Chrysler never made the Dart or Fury with this roof line in a 4 door.

Yeah, that's my photo. Ray's and Fred Cady are available. The Ray's are not cheap, but are nice.

Hey, we used to throw pocket knives at each others feet and shoot BB guns at each other too!

Try these

Since Christmas, I haven't been able to build models. We have a new mouth to feed in the house and she requires constant attention. It hasn't stopped me from purchasing things online. Not necessarily a holy grail more just a grail. Since I started collecting Mint diecasts on the cheap in the early 2000s, this is one that eluded me. Either too busted up or missing parts, I never expected to get one. This popped up with an out of this world buy it now and I didn't hesitate. It's missing tweezers and one door guide is cracked, but compared to so many, it's perfect for me. All paperwork and the box too! A rare moment of calm for June bug

Pretty Cool! I did something like this a couple of few ago, but with diecast Not sure why my 53 is not in this photo, but here it is with my 54 I built a couple years ago from the Monogram kit.

Danbury Mint Hirohata Mercury

Seeing it was a new tool in 1970 according to Scalemates...

Hachette

I've been looking at Hachette since they first came to be known several years ago. eBay was my only source and they were always more than I wanted to pay due to shipping, knowing what the original cost was. So recently, I happened to see some of the F1 cars on Amazon too much $$$$, but thought I'd check with a general search and sure enough, they had reasonable prices and free shipping for Prime. I picked up these and they were on sale too! Someone else had the Maverick recently and it sure is nice, especially compared to the other dicast offering. Nothing opens and next to nothing chassis detail, but the topsides and interiors look good.

A while back on WatchJRGo his buddy had a problem with a relatively new F-150 and many interior accessories were not functioning. Then the the truck was having drivability issues so they decided to diagnose with a computer. Turned out a cracked rear turn signal that housed the side radar for traffic was water logged and killed everything on the CAN bus. Unplugging it fixed so many things!

I'm late posting. These are the diecast I received for Christmas. The F-86 is from the Italian Aereobrigata it's 1/100, kind of unique. The two Blaney cars are the first winner Next Gen cars and the Texas All Star Race Winner is my first ColorChrome to be added to my collection.
