At least I was close with a 31 Studebaker President Still fun looking

I think it's smiling at me

Jimmy Flintstone has a couple resin bodies of a 59 Hearse . One even calls for the Ecto as a donor

yes

Definitely to big for AMT's 1/25th kits

the Flintstone box says 1/25th scale so that makes it somewhat confusing

Yes I did transpose numbers. I checked the box and it is a 1/25th scale so any Revell 34 ford in 1/25th should work. Thanks Jon update: the 7647 kit they say to use is a 1/24 scale but the box says it is a 1/25th I just checked the body with two of my AMT 34 Fords in 1/25th and it is definitely too big so it must be a 1/24 and the 1/25th on the box is in error

I am new to resin bodies and the one I have (Flintstone 34 ford phantom delivery) calls for a Revell 34 Ford #7467 kit as a donor. Is there a list some where that will tell me what models were reissued under a different number ? There seems to be a few different Revell 34 Ford Kits released over the years but I am not sure if there is any others besides #7467 that will work for me. Some kind of data base that would list which model numbers had the same basic parts would be helpful The reason I ask is that #7467 seems to be a bit rare and it's price is a bit high. Thanks Jon

Yeah some how I got into the "sedan delivery" stage in my life. Trying to build as many Ford (Merc) SD's as I can find. The last time it was Bucket T's

Thanks again , checked out the stores in OC today. Coyote impressed me with the model choices and prices and the friendly proprietor. The Farm store not so much. Lots of choice's but prices on the high side for me. Parking in OC is an experience.

I had stopped building (the last time) back around 1994 But I did not stop buying. I ended up with from 150 to 200 models stashed in the attic. I brought most of them down and started selling the off but I still have about 50 or so left.I find myself with stuff like a 90,91 and 92 Thunderbird Super Coupes I owned a 1:1 91 at the time but 3 off them. A Plum Crazy 57 Chev Funny car ,I am NOT a Chevy fan, a Aluma Coupe??? a Testers Pre Painted Metal Bucket T??? a 92 Mustang a 94 Mustang a 95 Mustang a Mustang Mach III concept and a 59 Ford Galaxie Convert with the 3 piece body what was I thinking At this time I am thinking "future parts donors" one of the last swap meets I went to I planned on selling off some more but only ended up buying 4 kits ,2 of them I had never even thought about building and my Wife calls me "Impulsive"

neat stuff thanks for posting

As I remember in the past I have only worked on one at a time but now I find myself resurrecting My Tweedy Pie project, starting a 26 Ford Sedan delivery a 31 Ford Sedan delivery, a 41 Ford phantom sedan delivery researching and part collecting for the Kookie T. and yesterday I started thinking about a doing the Ala Kart as a sedan delivery. It looks like I will busy during my retirement.

I have been wanting to give Mylar reflective sheets a try

I am just getting back into the hobby. The last time was in the early 90's It has been about a month now and I find my self working on 3 projects and researching my next 2,or is that 3?? So is normal to try to do more than one or should I concentrate on getting one done then moving on to the next ?

Lots of Cruises coming up let me know when and I will look them up for you

Thanks and don't worry I won't tell a soul The last time I was by the Bomber the nose was off something about doing another restore. The Cafe was still there in the back but O haven't been in there in years

Thats not rust. They call it "Patina"

Thanks for the heads up on the Street Cruise. I always forget about it until its over. I won' have my Barracuda out of storage by then but will go check it out I will check with an old buddy on facebook he works for Portland Trans

Bridgetown and Tammie's hobbies and Coin Corner & Hobbies in Oregon City Call first not sure about the Coin Corner but Bridgetown is closed on Sundays Bridgetown is on the east side , Tammies is on the west side and Coin Corner is south

AMT's 340 Duster comes with both the Six pack and single four but it is 1/25. I plan on using it for my 66 Barracuda build. I am not sure what scale the barracuda is but it's the only one I found

Oops missed that . To bad I sld my 49 Ford a few months back

Maybe an earlier release. Mine is a 2002 release withe the 440 and stock Flathead

I thought the 354 could be a bored out 331 but had not done the math yet. Most likely any of those caddy engines will work . I have a 49 Merc kit buts it's a AMT and comes with a 440. Since I am not a big Caddy fan I will either find a parts pack on ebay or buy the Revell Merc. I could always use the Merc on another project. Perhaps a $9 Merc Sedan Delivery Thanks for the replies and info
