  1. I'll be getting the Super Trailer. I may even build it. It will be worth it to me, just for the accessories alone.
  2. The Clear Hood on the Red Car is going to be the hardest part. Somebody back in the 1990's did a resin conversion kit of the Red Car. Had a clear resin hood. For the life of me, I cannot remember who it was. Wish I had gotten one. I'll never see it again.
  3. Well, it is November of 2018. I see no Revell Germany Landrover kits. Maybe Next year, 'eh?
  4. That's what that Chrome tree is From!!! I have one of those chrome trees in my stash. It came in a parts lot I got from eBay years ago. I knew it was Dodge, but never knew what kit it was. Good to know. Thanks for helping me identify it.
  5. I'd like to see the Pintera kit come back. Warts and all, that is a blast of 70's nostalgia right there.
  6. Sign Me Up! You can never have enough pickup trucks. Thanks for sharing that Casey. I had no idea.
  7. Two Words. Cooter's Towtruck.. Maybe we can at least get the kit back if not the Duke's tie in.
  8. Aw, Dang. I already got the Fire Truck version. Now I'll want one of these. Hopefully HL gets them.
  9. This is going to unlock a whole bunch of aftermarket resin parts. All I'll need is a resin 1973 Grille, if the box contents match the box art. I suspect that this kit is going to generate page after page of comments. Good, Bad and everything in between. Give the lack of MOPAR Pickups and the price even the LRW kits bring, this thing is going to be a lodestone of interest. I know that I'm in for as many as my budget can support next year, and a group of resin parts to backdate, change, and augment this kit. Now comes the hardest part. Waiting until it hits the shelves and there are definitive answers to the dozens of questions about what exactly is in the box, and how good the parts are. This kit is going to be Fun! The Circus surrounding it, will be even more Fun!
  10. That Super Trailer really floats my boat! I'll need one of those for sure. I hope the Rat Trap and Ridge Runner kits have alternate decal markings. Glad to see the Polar Lights VW Bug back. Some great stuff heading our way.
  11. I'd really like to see the Gas Cans and other accessories added back in to the '34 P/U. However, I suspect that Dave Darby's thoughts about where they went, is the correct answer. With out some brand new tooling being cut, those parts are probably long gone. It would be nice to be surprised by seeing those parts return, however.
  12. And what might be a better link from the Old Motor. http://theoldmotor.com/?s=Model+T+ford+Speed+Equipment+&&paged=1
  13. Aaron. I owned a '27 T Speedster. It was a blast to drive. However, 55mph in a T is far faster than it would seem. An open, Speedster Body at 55, gives a subjective 100 mph feel. Here are a buncha links from the Old Motor online site. They may provide some useful background on Ruxtell Rear Axles and Rocky Mountain Brakes. Two of the Most Common T accessories, and some of the most useful as well. Follow the links at the bottom of the articles to learn more. Also some great Flavor Pieces, if you are not a T fanatic like me. http://theoldmotor.com/?p=136181 http://theoldmotor.com/?p=151395 http://theoldmotor.com/?p=159089 http://theoldmotor.com/?p=165896 http://theoldmotor.com/?p=139059 http://theoldmotor.com/?p=129106 Enjoy.
  14. I think the grille would look great on the 48 Woody! The Wheels from this kit would look great on the Woody too.
  15. Box Art for the new kit does not show the stake bed. Probably need to open the new kit, before we know for sure. I'll need one just for the grins, if nothing else. I've got plenty of the Lindberg versions, but just to have it in an AMT box will be great.
  16. The Red Car was the one I was hoping for when the "Greased Lightning" was first announced. Sadly, all we got was 6 new pieces for the venerable '48 Vert, and Revell did not even give us the period Hop Up parts from the Chopped Coupe. Kinda lame, really, if you think about it.
  17. I scored the Buick and the Olds. Still hunting the 65 Fairlane, the 65 Chevelle and the 66 Chevy. I'll get them, it just takes patience.
  18. Beautymus!
  19. Bandit Resins does offer one. Or used to. I've been trying for over a year to get one. I know Kenny at Bandit is having health issues right now, so that may account for the lack of reply.
  20. Despite having 4 of the Lindberg Kits in the stash (3 Yellow, 1 tan) I'll need this one. Can't wait to see the decals for this one.
  21. The scoop is from this kit.
  22. Kia "Pet" Acura "Vigorous", the unloved 5 cylinder Vigor.
  23. Dang, Ash! Thanks for the preview of the kit. I might have to look this up and get one. Looking forward to seeing what you do with it.
