Stopped by Ollie's today, and they are restocked with kits. Decent selection too. Almost grabbed a couple of the snap Camaros. Really nice pad printed tires included.
-
Cool old kit from my younger years.... I'll grab one just to enjoy the build.

Looking good. Sorry bout your decal luck. Been there, I coat mine now Wonder if one of these would make a good donor to make the Capri more detailed.

Calipers, dial indicator.... WOW... I eyeball and cut! LOL I agree, the slice job is fantastic, but the roof looks like a bubble and would look better flattened a bit (IMO). Then again, I have questioned others that in the end just came together, so I will stay tuned.

Monogram '66 Malibu Street Rat
Sledsel replied to Straightliner59's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I built one years ago and really liked it. The wheelbase was a bit wonky, but I lived with it. One day I'll build one and address that -
Cool.... Watching, never saw this kit in progress
-
Very cool. I have a similar build going with a coupe

Far far far from my cup of tea.
Sledsel replied to Lovefordgalaxie's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
The mods on that car were tastefully done in my opinion. Looks comfy inside, almost looks like it came like that. I like it. I have seen so many that were just ridiculous with mods. -

L700 modified dragster transport
Sledsel replied to olsbooks's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Wow, I am usually in the car section and decided to look here because I have an L700 on the bench.... Low and behold, the first topic is L700. This is what I can say thus-far. Slow and steady with the doors, and paint before they are on. I had them on and working and broke them painting. Also, the pins on the rear axle are pretty soft/fragile. I drilled mine out and inserted solid Evergreen rod. Other than that, it is going together pretty well. I did buy a second kit and plan to extend the frame to make a car hauler, but with a twist, a dirty grungy hemi under the cab. Also, the truck has a nosedive look, something needs done on my next to level it out. -
When it comes to AMT 57 Thunderbirds, you have set the bar really high.........
