Yea, it has. It just takes one grumbling about "old molds" I for one am tickled pink for these old kits. Newer ones are nice, more detailed but in many cases far from accurate. Pick your poison.

Just a warning if you ever get the urge to build something "different" That's how it happened to me. LOL

L o o o o o n g a g o........ I built this 40 Ford. Was so happy with the way it came out but now the mold lines on the front fenders just bother me. I keep thinking of a rebuild for it, but could never duplicate this paint job which I just love the way it came out. Sooooo..... it will just annoy me.

Well, I will warn you, big rigs are addictive. Never built one but did about 2 years ago, now I have a shelf full waiting for me.

Nice build and description of the build. Is there anything you don't build?

Nice... you are a building fiend...... Keep it up

Cool concept, good execution, and I agree, you keep getting better.

I think it looks great

Sweet 'bird

That is beautiful

Love the 46-47 Fords. This build looks great too! Wish Revell had not screwed up the windshield openings on all their 48 kits tho.

Cool build. Powered by Ford with a rear distributor? Not unless it is a Y-Block

45 years ago or so my dad built a replica of a truck my grandfather drove for Christmas. My grandfather displayed it for years but after a remodel of his house it just disappeared. Well, my grandparents have been gone for 15 years or so and my mom and dad just left the house as it was in Pennsylvania. Well, my dad decided it was time to sell the house so I went back there (I live in Ohio) and see what I wanted as keepsakes. Low and behold I found the truck in the back of a closet in a box. Many pieces fell off but seem to all be present in a little tin in the box. I will be returning to hopefully locate the trailer which was hand painted by my dad. Plans are to just clean it, attach the missing pieces, find or reproduce the trailer and display it with other items from my grandfathers life that I saved.

insanity is my description Winning bid:US $943.99

On all mine I prefer to lay a coat down and let it dry for a few days, then some 2000 grit and 2 more coats. If it is a solid color and I do not like the finish I take 3000 grit and polish. Metallic paint seam to lay better for me but I will clear and wet sand and polish when needed. This is a duplicolor paint job with one coat of Testors Wet look clear, no buffing

I did this with the hard tires from the '37 Chevy Modified and it works great. Just be sure to clamp them until dry.

Looks really good. It looks like an old car, not a restored show queen. I especially like the way the interior came out looking a bit worn. Was that your objective? I know some of us would kill to do an interior like that. Again slow down, you are making some of us look bad

It definitely has that look to it. Dark and mean. You need to slow down, you build faster than I can open a new kit.

Relisted for sure. I think the first bidder backed out. End price was less than what I showed. I did check, this guy sells Vintage boxes and parts but has a feedback of 100%

Never had one in the past, never really built trucks, but these reissues have lit a big rig spark in me.

A few more notable mentions.....

I was at Hobby Lobby today and had to have this ugly old Mack...... now what to do what to do......

I must add a few of my favorites..... http://speednik.com/files/2013/02/corvette-batmobile-640x347.jpg

Complete with Kmart mirrors. Hey, paint it satin black and say Leepu built it
