Awesome model. I need to get one (or more).
-
I've managed to get 3 or 4 of the old Revell 1957 Chevy Bel Aires together, the last probably 30 years ago. Never did finish a Nomad so hopefully this time it goes better. I just don't know when that will be. I might start cleaning up parts in between other projects. Just what I need, to start something else! As for not opening the 1969 version, it's taken 45 years to find another mint original and for me it is more of a nostalgia thing and I usually don't buy kits that I do not intend to build.

I found a kit of the first model that I ever remember buying, the Revell 1957 Chevy Nomad, 1969 issue, the one with the photo box art. It is still in its original shrink wrap. It will never be opened. I also found a 1973 issue, open, but complete that I will attempt to build (I forgot how bad these are, too many Tamiya kits I guess!).

Wondering about a magazine
Mark72JPS replied to Mike Kucaba's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I did read it. It was ok. As far as I know the last issue, which they said was the farewell issue, was printed in Feb. 2001. If you have seen Scale Aviation Modeler, it is basically the same format. And yes, it is UK based. -
Awesome build! Very nicely finished. I have five of those that I need to build one of these days.

Kits you have, that you will never build
Mark72JPS replied to BLOODBANE's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Tony, I told you that if you had charged a dollar to everyone who looked at that Charger you would have made what you wanted for it by now. -
Kits you have, that you will never build
Mark72JPS replied to BLOODBANE's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I have two that more than likely will never be built. An original issue 1/8 scale Monogram Big Drag and the Monogram Tom Daniel Mean Maverick. -
No plastic 2014 Stingray kits? Could it be?
Mark72JPS replied to Len Geisler's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
I have found that unless it's a Corvette promo older than about 1970, you can't give them away. No one seems to want them, even for free! -
Lotus 72, 78 and 79.

No. It was going to be the next release in the rod and Custom collection, but it was never released. I was looking forward to that one as well.

Voted. Cool Merc.

1957 Chevy kit info needed please.
Mark72JPS replied to Mack_Mechanic's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I remember building two of that version when it first came out (don't ask me why) and I think that this is the first time I've seen one since. Have fun building it. -
How often do you visit Hobby Lobby?
Mark72JPS replied to dantewallace's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Never been to one. -
Very cool!!! Love the old Mopar Pro Stocks.
-
Somewhere around 100-150. Mostly Tamiya and Testors lacquers.
-
Wow!! Very cool. Another great build. Love the 1970's Pro Stocks.

I like it. One of the best ones I've seen. Way better than the box art. Great job! -
Came out great! Nice work.

Bob Glidden & Don Nicholson Pinto Pro Stock
Mark72JPS replied to RIC417's topic in WIP: Drag Racing Models
Very nice builds. Two of my favorites. It would be nice if Round2 would reissue the old MPC Pro Stock kits. -
Cool Sox & Martin Duster!
-
Very nice. Great choice in colors. I need to get one of those.

Very nice builds.
