  1. That's as good as a stack of new kits!
  2. Went back to Ollies in Bowling Green KY today, sadly they are wiped out of kits and the store manager said that's all they will get. Might have 60 kits left 90% of them are Lindburg. I did find the Charger cop car and bought 6 of the last 10 they had. I must say its a really nice kit! It can be built as a stock charger with 3 sets of rim options or the cop car with 8 light bar options. I can see a stock build, a cop build and maybe a Fast Five movie car build........hmmm 20141009_141745 by jrherald420, on Flickr
  3. Might have too much shine to be a Cobra! lol Looks to be a good save in my eyes.
  4. When the Rat roaster first came out i got one from their scratch and dent section for 12.00 because "the box has one side crushed but still sealed". I took a chance and it showed up with a very small dent on one side. Looks like it was dropped and landed on the corner.......just finished the kit 2 days ago.
  5. Yep, have all proof with you including statements that are notarized. After that is done file a law suite to get back the money you have lost because of his claims.
  6. The seller gets the discount, not the buyer. I don't care what they say and ebay has told me the same thing. As long as the weight and size are close to what you entered in the auction that is a discount offered to you by USPS for saving them time in shipping your package and for all the business you give them.
  7. I didn't rely on just one site. But several that were fairly trust worthy. no longer have those links or pictures saved. Either way the White looks better than the tan so thats why i made mine white. Either way im not wasting my time arguing about the color of a top. Ive seen pictures of the cast driving a car with what looked to me as a off white top and another with a tight tan top.
  8. When i built my car i did some research and found one site that claimed the car was red with a white top and a white interior but due the the film technology at the time the white color was changed to a light tan because the film could respond better to filming it in bright conditions.
  9. I have checked 3 stores for the Midget racer with no luck!
  10. Ive been that kid. I remember when my dad tried to teach me how to use the riding mower when i was 8. He told me that you had to press in the clutch in order to change speeds and that was it. I ended driving around at full speed not knowing how to stop the thing. I ended up ramming the laundry pole and got screamed at for not knowing where the brake was.....lol My dad still has that mower 24 years later.......and yup that damage is still there! lol
  11. Wow that is really nice! Great work!
  12. Pretty funny.
  13. I can say that if i didnt get anymore from Ollies i would still be happy.......for at least 2 more years!
  14. lol They were all worth 8.00!!!! 20141002_141908 by jrherald420, on Flickr
  15. I have seen the curbside Gunze 250 GTO kits for that. Heck i bought 4 of them for 10.00 each and 2 were still sealed. My 250 GTO high tech kit with the v12 engine cost me 110.00 shipped to my door.
  16. 25.00 for a Gunze Sangyo Ferrari 250 GTO with a full detail sohc V12 engine?
  17. My wife picked me up about 17 kits. Only Lindberg kit she got was the ramcharger. Now I have to wait till Friday night to get them in my hands. Again
  18. Im after 4 or 5 superbirds, 2 or 3 Z06 vetts, and 3 or 4 others ive seen pictured. Funny thing is last week i had the Z06 and the superbird in my hands and was going to spend 24.00 each on them and i set them back down and bought paint i dont need instead. How does the Ramcharger look? Is it worth buying?
  19. Are these what you were looking for? Nevermind i just noticed there is an extra set of spokes........grrrrr NOT what i paid for!!

  21. My wife is heading to one for me in a couple hours. Im hoping for several to come home with her.
  22. Its a good fine scratch filler with a light sanding. I will give it that.
  23. I bought 5 or 6 can of this from Hobby Lobby when it was being marked down for 2.22 a can. Its a good primer but i still dont use it much. Tamiya Fine white is still my go to primer. For parts that are not going to be painted body color i use Walmart flat white paint or the grey primer, .88 cents a can its hard to beat.
