Yes I did. It came out very nice. Another one I should post photos of.

I've built one. It was a pretty nice kit. I'll have to dig mine out and post some photos.

What's the diner built from? That looks very cool.

As noted by Ellen above, you will not be disappointed by the Monogram Cord. It's way better and easier to build than the old Pyro, now Lindberg, Cord. Though the Lindberg Cord can turn out okay, with a little work. Work that is not needed with the Monogram kit.

Okay. Even if I had the money. I'd passing on this one. -
MPC El Camino with cool little dirt bike
unclescott58 replied to DanR's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Went on eBay to see what the new reissue of this kit was going for. About $35 with shipping. Instead I bought a brand new copy of the reissue for under $20 with shipping. For that $15 difference, one does not get the mini bike. But, you do get the kit molded in white plastic. White plastic vs. mini bike and black plastic? Plus a savings of $15? I do hope the mini bike will eventually show up in another future kit. One molded in white plastic. -

Not a though decision after seeing the two choices. The Cheetah of course. -
SOME CURRENT ROUND 2 INFO TODAY...
unclescott58 replied to AC Norton's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Looking forward to the AMT 1/32 scale Corvette and the 1/16 scale Honda motorcycle. Now if we can get Round 2 to reissue AMT's 1/32 scale '32 Ford, '40 Ford, and '60 Thunderbird. The 1/32 Indy would be okay too. I'd buy it. -

Yea. Let's see what we're voting on. -
MPC El Camino with cool little dirt bike
unclescott58 replied to DanR's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I've never owned this particular version of the El Camino. The closest I have is a '79 promo. I like the Choo Choo Customs SS front end and the mini bike. So I may have to finally buy one. The only thing I'm not keen on, is it says it's molded in black. I'd prefer if they also offered it in white. I'm also not keen on the Choo Choo Customs graphics. I wonder if the kit still includes SS decals too? -
The one thing Moebuis forgot to give with this kit is a nameplate. They've got a blank slab in front of the Reaper for one. Here is where the aftermarket steps in. I believe I picked this up from Monsters In Motion? It was pretty reasonably price. About $6.00. It is made of resin. And I think finishes off the kit quite nicely.

I've always loved the Deal's Wheels models. I'm glad to hear that Revell is reissuing this one. -
What Did You Get Today? (Not Model Related)
unclescott58 replied to LOBBS's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
Yep. It's "N" scale. I don't have room for anything larger. By the way, I'm big into passenger trains. I also have two different complete N scale Great Northern Empire Builder sets. One Kato. And one Con-Cor. My next goal is to complete a Santa Fe passenger set. I have several cars already. But, not a complete consist as of yet. I also have several pieces of mainly Great Northern and Santa Fe freight equipment. I love those two old flags.
