Based upon this photo taken a few days ago I’d say yes. That’s his resin parts display at the MId-Atlantic NNL. Norm is the one in the red/black checker shirt and blue jeans checking out some kits at the show.

Welcome. Have you joined any car model clubs in SoCal? As you know traffic is horrible and I have yet to make it to many events due to the travel distance or being committed to going to other events being held at the same time. I am currently in Marina del Rey. I checked out your website www.wheelsareeverything.com and it is great.

The Cobra kit is not like the typical old metal axle AMT/MPC kits. The wheels press onto the suspension like a snap kit. I don’’t have the kit nearby but here is a picture of the rear “axle.”

Are you referring to the kit that is the old Monogram model from 1988 which Revell acquired and has reissued many times? I do not remember any issues with the kit when it was released but that was 30 years ago and the wheel centers went on with e gentle push.

Thanks. Over the years I’ve been to different events and even my wife dressed as Leia a few times.

Is this the Falfa you’re looking for?

These are from about ten years ago.

Look well worth the effort from what you started with and a great build. 👏

Amazing build and workmanship.

Prices of vintage kits that may never get built by anyone. It’s a box of parts. While newer kits might be better, finding a partially built 60 year old kit at a reasonable price and rebuilding it is worth it when people comment they have not seen that particular kit built in decades.

Welcome and prayers for your friends. Looks like you are on the right track with the build. Bill Geary aka MrObsessive built thisGT350R 30 years ago before 3D printing and the wide availability of aftermarket resources we have now.

I may but most of my kits are supplies are still boxed up from moving last year and are in another state.

Fantastic build.

NIce build and the lights are awesome.

I need to get back to this project. I do not want to break my record of taking a few decades to finally finish the 70 Boss 302 T/A car that i converted from the street Monogram kit. I attached that picture with an older 1/43 build and one of how the Tope car looked a few years ago,

I cannot speak for Randy but given the time that has passed it looks like Model Builders Warehouse is gone.

Great looking VW bus. I’ve seen lots of under glass posts of diecast models with minor detailing up to a complete repaint, wheels and tire swaps, and detailing to the point the original diecast looks completely different. Keep up the good work.

That would be great so never say never but they should redo the interior and chassis to 1970 specs instead of using carryover parts from early Mustang kits.

Norman and Brad are usually there.

And he still is but I do not think he does complete kits anymore.

I would be interested in a decal list also. Thanks

Looks like this July.

Great pictures and story Andy. Glad the show could be held a day early given the bad weather.

Looks nice but no engine in this model?

Kevin Lutz was at one time so with the reissues kit coming out it make increase the interest. If not probably one of 3D casters may take advantage of the opportunity.
