  1. Just checked, the 1903 Ford is a Franklin mint as well. Seems to be the more valuable of the bunch. Too bad it is missing that one curved brass part.
  2. The Mint cars are beautiful and appear to be all there. I do prefer plastic though, and have permission to do with them what I want...so they might get turned into something I can build. I also love the motorcycle models. Best of the tamiya kits in my opinion.
  3. I have not been active in this part of the forum for awhile, my apologies. My daughter-in-law came to visit tonight and she brought me these. I immediately put them in a display case. Two of them are Franklin Mint. I will leave you to guess which ones. No rot, and in pristine condition. Her grandfather gave them to her and her brothers but they had no interest, but they thought of me. I can do what I want with them. Have not decided if I will keep them or not. The mint ones are absolutely stunning.
  4. I sent an email from their faq tag asking when this particular body would be available. He responded right away and said he might have one left. He did.
  5. This just came in from RMR. One more for my first gen Falcon collection. A four door wagon. It came with interior tub and clear acetate for rear windows. He also threw in most of what is needed from the Ranchero donor kit. Absolutely the best guy to deal with.
  6. Sorry Steve, no wip...yet. I cannot figure out when a wip is motivation, or the kiss of death. Here is where I am at. I am being held up with the bmf. I have no idea why I love the era of excess...right up 'till foil time. I need to source a set of pe Elcamino badges, instrument decals, and a decal sheet of seat patterns I heard about. It has 59 Caddy wheels and engine.
  7. I can hardly wait to see it finished. Amazing details in this conversion.
  8. Simply stunning build. Imagination and execution all rolled into one.
  9. Bernard, would you mind messaging me please. On my end it says you do not receive them. Thanks
  10. WoW! That is an amazing find. I purchased a similar looking bunch of 32 parts, so similar infact that I had to go make sure mine were still there. ? MEK you say ? I need to look into that for the same reasons.
  11. Stunning vision and superb execution.
  12. Not exactly a huge amount of work, but after soaking for the last two days, the Buick looks amazing...
  13. Great concept. I modified a 61 Impala hood to fit a 59 Elcamino I am working on.
  14. One of my favorite "chill" drinks. Almost a must when foiling a late 50's subject. ?
  15. The Corvette rallye wheels pictured look perfect.
  16. Beautiful stance. I have a couple of these in the stash and am always looking for ideas
  17. Successful transaction and model should be here this coming week.
  18. I just wanted to let everyone know that I emailed Ron and had a response in less than an hour. Just thought you would want to know...
  19. Thanks, I will see if they answer my email.
  20. This just arrived from the 'bay. Only missing the left hand taillight lens.
