  1. Barnes & noble Wichita KS carries your publication. As well as several Dillions / Kroger owned grocery stores.
  2. If the need/ rarity is an issue, its a sold unit . Then I have passed up a deal once or twice if they want to make a skim extra $$ with exorbitant shipping costs.
  3. Thank you for the likes .
  4. Thank you. No, I pulled it out of the box and built it as is.
  5. Super sweet Pontiac . Excellent build.
  6. Just an old AMT kit that has been sitting on my shelf begging to be built. After going through a modeling slump I decided to pick this old classic kit & build a box stock.
  7. Welcome not so distant neighbor.

    1948 Ford

    Very nice build.
  9. The days of affordability or reasonable prices on everything is long gone. I do what I can to support my LHS & Hobby lobby to an extent of reasonable prices. Ebay is my last resort (Out of production kits are a different story), shipping cost's usually kills any good deals one may find from time to time.
  10. What else would you expect from a Freightliner?
  11. Wish'n you the best highway. LMAO I yanked a flat bed for 14.5 years in rain, ice, snow, sleet & heat and wind. Still in the arm chair myself nothing out there worth the time anymore with the hours of service garbage they shoved down our throats. Hang in there brother! Were pull'n for ya!
  12. Very Nice Richard. I like the "bunny" effect Pins on the continental kit.
  13. I buy them with full intent to enjoy building them. I often buy multiples of the same kit for parts & other build notions. With the way some kits end up on the MFG "short runs" I buy them while I can to avoid the high collectors prices on ebay.
  14. Thank you for posting the internal diagram of the head & engine block assembly. Great subject .
  15. Cool truck. I would weather the inside of the exhaust stacks with some soot being the rest of the rig is weathered . Pretty nifty.
  16. Styrene sheet and properly placed half round stock could replicate the side panels. 1:1 they wasn't one complete sheet as they are panels. Add some Rivets . Available in sheet decal form from Micro mark and that issue solved. Just time & patience.
  17. How true. sadly enough.
  18. I found one in a box of junker's. It has a clear wheel & a chrome center. It came from out of a box with an AMT Rivera
  19. Did you make some bows for the top tarp supports and a rag to roll over & cover the load?
  20. Very nice work. Good color choices!
  21. Nice vette young man! Keep up the good work!
