  1. I'm little late on commenting on this one. Some how it slipped past me. I'm impressed. Your is the nicest build I've ever seem of this kit. And may push me to get mine done.
  2. I wonder if the Bonneville streamline body could make an appearance in another somewhere down the road? I have my doubts. Between retooling the body, and I don't really see another truck kit that would match the '60 Chev in theme. Oh well. At least we're getting the basic Go Kart back. And that's cool with me.
  3. Just saw this in the 2019 Auto World catalog I got in today's mail. I hadn't heard about this being reissued until then. And to see it's being reissued with Go Kart and in old style box art. This one moves up to a must have for me. Does anybody know anything about the Go Kart itself? Is this a reissue of the that appeared with several AMT pickup truck models in the early-to-mid 60's? Or is it something totally new?
  4. Not real Italian Job. The original, with Michael Cain.
  5. I forgot about that one. Very, very cool!
  6. Got the 2019 Auto World catalog today. I'm a little disappointed. Not much new shown. And I'm surprised at how many kits are listed as being discontinued. Especially in the Lindberg line of models. One bright spot I hadn't heard about, is AMT's 1960 Chevy Custom Fleetside with Go Kart. Between the Go Kart and the box art, that will be must have. Again, a lot of stuff being discontinued. Is this something we should be worried about?
  7. Isn't it Bob-Tail?
  8. I've done a couple of different searches on eBay looking for this kit. And so far I can find nothing. Is this kit available to masses as of yet?
  9. Okay? Is this the answer to my Mercedes question?
  10. I went back. I still do not see the answer to my questions. I now know scale since you were kind enough to tell me with your above response. Thank you. Now to find out who makes it?
  11. Beautiful models. Great job.
  12. So who makes it? And what scale is it?
  13. Does anybody have any photos of the Super Trailer/Display Case Trailer build, using the clear parts?
  14. Who makes the model above? ☝️ And in what scale?
  15. That ☝️looks okay. Not great. But not bad either. By the way, of that generation of Dodge truck, that particular front end ('77 & '78) is my favorite.
  16. What did the box for the original issue of MPC's '78 Dodge truck look like? And why not go back to that? Still, no matter what box art is used I plan on buying one. I like this generation of Dodge trucks.
  17. Another one where the box art sells me, if nothing else. And I like contents in the box too. Yea the kit was designed 60 years ago. But, I don't mind that. I like the simplicity of those old kits. They build into beautiful renditions of the real cars. I too would love to see the '60 Imperial reissued if possible. Any of the original 58's, 59's, 60's or old Craftsman kits would be welcome in my collection.
  18. Sorry to say, but I think the "Super Trailer" (Display Case Trailer) kit sucks. The clear upper section of the kit is almost impossible to build. In fact I've never seen one built using the clear upper section. I've got one that I've been working on for several years now. The clear parts are the only thing that has stopped me from finishing the kit.
  19. All right! I love this series of kits. Simple and beautiful kits. And vehicles I like. Now they need to reissue the '32 (3-window!) and the '40.
  20. I'm looking forward to this one. I love the box art.
  21. In the mean time, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everybody out there. Scott Aho
  22. The video is coming. Then you'll know I'm right.
  23. I can't help it. It goes so good with egg nog.
  24. The GTX convertible goes on my list.
  25. Sure. Of course they come back out with that one, shortly after I bought and built an original. For years I had wanted one of these. I never thought it would see the light of day again. So, I hunted down and bought an original. Oh well. I like the model. And the Coca-Cola markings. So I may have to buy another one. By the way, the Buyer's Choice version above, has cover art that may make you think you were getting the Sedan Delivery version. You were not. In the that box was the version that built either a Tu-Door Sedan or a Phaeton. Despite the picture, it did not have the blanked out side panels. Or the correct Sedan Delivery rear door.
