Have an MPC 1/16 scale General Lee with the MPC 1/16 '73 Street Charger stock interior parts. What ya got too trade? MM

Been working on a Lola T-70 Spyder being build using a Tamiya 1/24 slot car body. Had an old MPC GT40 chassis, and using the engine, wheels, front and rear suspension from a Gurney Eagle kit. Using Phildaupho's WIP as a guide. Lola T70 Mk2 1/24 scale- Under Glass - Page 3 - WIP: Model Cars - Model Cars Magazine Forum

Outstanding build! You could have used the MPC Jolly Roger Maverick FC kit (a Multi-Maverick spin off). There's one that just sold in April on FeePay for $494.99.

Outstanding. Have an original kit in its mailer box in my stash.

Well, I've done a few over the years. Got a few more in the stash. The race is on the 25th.

Great work. Minor detail but the box says Patent Pending not Patient Pending.

But I bet it will list for around $40 now when it was sold for less than $2.00. in the 70's

Oh wow, the Scorpion drag coupe (a reworked Astro 1 body on the Piranha chassis). One of my Holy Grail kits. Will be watching for this one. Below is a pic of Scott Colmer's customized build of a Scorpion Drag Coupe. MM

Your eyes are better than mine. I count 3 rows of 11 cars, I think.

Outstanding work so far. Included one of my favorite pics from the Indy 500 winners Museaum photo shoot.

Will be following. Did a similar "What If" of a Butch Leal '65 Thunderbolt. https://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/166012-what-if-butch-leal-65-ford-thunderbolt-ss/?do=findComment&comment=2479670

Got a built up off the Bay. Disassembled it and started over. It had not been painted or decaled but was glued with epoxy. Left off the rear body cover. Painted with Testors rattlecan Revving Red lacquer. Frame in semi gloss black. Rearranged the decals. Comments welcomed.

Got one on the way. Thanks for looking. MM

They normally do not restock the clearance items. They use the empty slots for new items. They will put a tag in the slot with the description of the new kit going there.

Went by my local HL and there were 8 model kits at 75% off. AMT Wild Hoss Bronco, '67 Camaro, '66 Fairlane, Revell '67 Corvette, '66 Malibu SS, '69 Nova, '70 Buick GTX and AMT Kenworth Hideout truck.

Swapped out better 3x2 carbs and air cleaners (thanks Belugawrx and Ragtop Man).

Parts on the way. Thanks for looking. MM

Could.

Yay, I'll take it. That is a front one, really need a rear (I see one in the last pic), but if not, I'll make do. Any other parts you might be looking for in trade? I'll PM you my mailing address. MM

PM sent. MM

In need of two Polar Lights '64 GTO tripower air cleaners. Have much avaiable for trade. Please advise. MM

Hey, thanks for the tip. Went thru my engine spare parts box and found a PL tripower carb set. Only found one air cleaner though. Will keep looking for the other two. Will swap them when I find the others.

Thank you. Didn't do a WIP but the engine in the MPC '67 GTO is a near drop in and by using the chassis and rear drive train from the same '67 GTO donor kit it's a simple swap.

I agree, but the one I have is on my PL '64 GTO.

Been wanting to do this for a while. Took the new AMT craftsman plus 1965 GTO HDTP and added a 389 GTO engine, chassis, rear drive train with exhaust, firewall and radiator from an MPC '67 GTO that was on the shelf of doom. Also added some Firestone red line tires from the parts box. Paint is Testors rattlecan gold lacquer with interior fabric tan and a coat of wet look clear. Acceptable?
