My haul for the week. Flock Hornet & IMSA Mustang from a local toy show today.both open complete but with decal issues. The bodies will be used for hard body slot cars. The KAT From AMT also from the toy show along with the 1/32 Green Hornet Black Beauty slot car Pinto from Michaels with a 40 off coupon.

40 Ford coupe, I hope they fix the poorr hood trim this go around. Would like to see them retool the original headers and wheel covers but Round2 probably blew their development budget on the "NEW" Coca-Cola decals.

Didn't see the Demon listed on their webpage

We will be holding two shows in 2022! The first event will be on April 2nd while the second show will be held on October 15th. Both shows will take place at the VFW in Statesville where our last show was held. We are finalizing the show classes and we will be posting them one week from today.

Michaels is offering 40% off coupons again but you must sign up for Michaels Rewards to get them. Good onetime only for one regular priced item. I've received one a week over the past two weeks by emails from Michaels. Have been getting them on a Sunday and the coupon is valid through Saturday of the same week. Their model selection isn't what it used to be but I picked up the Revell 56 Del Ray at 40 off at my local Michaels

Thanks for attending and for your greatly appreciated help with the show judging.

Just want to thank everyone that made it to the show yesterday. We had 139 entries for the contest along with about 30 models on the display tables. All the vendors did well and are looking forward to our next show. Also a huge thank you to VFW Post 2031 in Statesvile, NC for providing us with an excellent venue for the event. We plan on having the show again next October and we are considering an event for April 2022. I will get some pics up and a list of the contest winners during the week.

One set of the plaques that will be awarded to the top 3 in each judged class for our show this Saturday,. For show classes see the first post.

See you there!

Dave, here's your reminder!

Swap Meet and Show. See attached flyer. If you have any other questions LMK

Sad to hear. I met Rich at the South Carolina Modelers Association show in Simponsville, SC several years ago. He was down visiting LIARS member Tom Valenta and he noticed my Northern accent (I'm originally from Long Island as was Rich). Talked to him on and off during the event, a very personable guy.

A reminder that the Fast Trax Raceway and Hobbies Swap and Show will be held this Saturday October 16th. All 30 tables have been sold and spectator response has been very good. Hope to see you there!

From the Stevens International AMT product listings, hoping this is a typo on the price. AMT PLASTIC MODEL KITS AMT-1242 1/25 Surf Shark 1959 Cadillac Ambulance Custom $49.95 TBA

A friend forwarded this to me. It may be awhile before they're available, heard May of 2022

Show classes for the Fast Trax show on October 16th in Statesville,NC

Same here Paul.

Thanks Mark, I didn't think to look at instructions from the early 60's.

AMT dual axle trailer from the Cal Drag Combo question. Can anyone ID these parts that are on this tree for the trailer? They are not shown in the instructions.

Tom, found this info on Wikipedia "The 1955-1957s were made in right-hand drive and shipped from Oshawa Car Assembly in Oshawa, Ontario, for local assembly in Australia (CKD), New Zealand (SKD) and South Africa. All three model years had a reversed version of the '55 LHD dashboard and did not get the LHD models' 1957 redesign."

Robert, natural plastic, the only parts I detailed were the taillights with an old felt tip marker. Plastic is not as bright as the newer issue AMT kits that are molded in white. I may add the side pipes to it once I decide on the decals for it Kit was the Street Rod series from 1974 which I believe was the first time it was reissued.
