What is a "girls " car ?
unclescott58 replied to cobraman's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
It's okay. Just thought I'd pass on more info to those who didn't know. It was not meant to be a personal slam on you. Scott -
Looks good. From what people say about this kit, you have made a silk purse out of a sows ear. Scott

I'm waiting!.......... Oh darn! Your being facetious? Scott -
59 Edsel & 67 Chrysler 300 Edsel's Done!
unclescott58 replied to Porscheman's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Nice looking 300 Ron. I love the all 300s. Both letter cars and non-letter cars. And '67 is one those years that ranks high with me. It's a great looking car. Especially the 2-door hardtop. Scott -
The Cyclone MPC is about to release can only be built as a NASCAR race car. A.K.A. a stock car. So I should have been more clear. The version I would like to see could be built "stock" as it appeared on a Lincoln-Mercury show floor back in 1970 or '71. The original MPC Cyclone kits from both 1970 and '71 could be built either way. Scott

Oh and I forgot about Porche. (See Bill's posting above.) Scott -

Where does that put the '53 and '54 Corvettes? Nash Healys? Most 1960's and earlier Jaguars? Datsun 240Zs? Toyota 2000 GTs? Mercedes 300, 240, 250, and 280SLs? How about a Stutz Bearcat or Mercer Raceabout? The list can go on and on. There are many great 2-seat cars without V-8s that not very "girly." Scott -
I'm sorry Dave, this one just seems like a jerky thing to do. A little on the mean side. I'd rethink that one. I can see somebody loosing it, and punching you out. Scott

Looks pretty good. Who manufactured the die cast itself? And what did it look like? Scott

Very nice. And very kool. Scott

Aoshima Vintage Club Toyota Celica LB 200GT
unclescott58 replied to Ken's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Again, I wish someone would make a 1st generation Celica that could be built as a version of the real car sold in the U.S. I would also like to see the same done with a '66-'67 Toyota 2000 GT. I think the model companies are missing the boat on these two cars. For pure personal reasons, I'd also like to see a US spec '70-'71 Toyota Hi-Lux pickup. I don't know if others would buy it. But, my dad bought a real one brand new in 1971. So, it would be cool to me. Scott -
1/25 Revell Ford Del Rio Ranch Wagon 2'n'1
unclescott58 replied to Matt T.'s topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
I'd love to see a 4-door. But, I'd want it to be a Custom 300, rather than the plain Custom the 2-door is. Scott -
Wow! Is this getting out of line. I'm greatfull to everyone who has severed our country. But, that doesn't mean those who haven't can not be greatfull and understanding too. I served in peace times to protect this country and its freedoms. The opinions of those who served or did not serve make no difference to me, if they are respectful. I'm sorry, Dan, "KingSix", you came off very disrespectful. And that's why people were (and are) commenting. Back to Jim's beautiful Torino. Scott

Dear Revell, PLEASE tool up a...
unclescott58 replied to Southern Fried's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I, like others above would love to see Revell do '58 Fords. A '58 Custom 300 sedan (prefer a 4-door, but a 2-door would be okay too). A '58 Del Rio Ranch Wagon. And of course a '58 Ranchero. Outside of '58 Fords, how about a early 70's Capri. One setup to build as a European or US spec model. For the US version, set it up as a 1972. The first year the Capri was offered in this country with a V-6. And the last year with the small tucked in bumpers. Another one Revell should consider is a US spec '71 or '72 Toyota Celica. And how about a '67 left-hand drive Toyota 2000 GT? In trucks, I'd love to see them tool up a '69 or '70 (though '67, '68, '71, or '72 would be okay too) Chevrolet Suburban and panel truck. While we're at it, a Corvair 85, especially a Ramside, would be cool. And so would a 1st generation Econline pickup and/or Club Wagon. Scott -

unclescott58 replied to cobraman's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
After hearing the above story, I would say it's very manly to have Tweety on the back of your Tracker. You can forget all my profound advice on how to become more of man. You don't need it. Scott -
I have mentioned this before. I would love to see Round 2 modify their AMT Chevy Van back into the window version with Open Road camper package restored. I'd also like to see them convert back their MPC Dodge van into a early 70's Sportsman passenger van with the windows and seats. And same for their 1/20th scale Ford van. The regular Chateau passenger van. Scott

1/24 Monogram Blue Bandito '29 Ford Street Rod
unclescott58 replied to Austin T's topic in Truck Kit News & Reviews
Thanks Dennis. It's always helpful to see what's in the box. This may sound stupid, but the thing that excited me the most after see the pictures, is the decal for the surfboard. Scott -
The '56 version of the Del Rio Ranch Wagon, was called the Park Lane. It was trimmed out a little nicer than the Del Rio. The Park Lane name was then moved over to the top of the line Mercury for '58. By the way, I'm impressed with the amount of interest this kit seems to be generating here. I'm hoping this is a sign of how well this model will do on shelves, and convince Revell to do the Ranchero. Scott

Very nice. I still think Gremlins are cool. Scott

Wow! Four good jokes in a row. This is great! Scott

59 Edsel & 67 Chrysler 300 Edsel's Done!
unclescott58 replied to Porscheman's topic in WIP: Model Cars
I've got a '59 Edsel convertible. But, I don't have a '67 Chrysler 300. So I think you should send it to me (for free, of course). Very nice finds, you lucky dog. Scott -
Looks great. I can't tell, did you build it with the steering wheel on the right or the left? And is that even an option with this kit? Scott
