I have a set of Warlock Rims and Tires, you may have if you want them. Alan

Yes, they are the same tooling.

Wonderful tribute to Mr. Felson. I read some of his books from the Library in Junior High. All were good. I never read this one. I'll need to fix that. Thanks for bringing back some great memories. Felson and W.E. Butterworth started my interest in Rodding.

Fine Build, on a kit you seldom see built any more. Sad, because I think these were the best Jo-Han kit ever tooled. Good Show.

I really like the colour choice, and the paint looks flawless! I'm not sure about the wheels, they look wrong for the car, but a great build noneless. Good Show.

Absolutely Awesome Build! The figure is a great touch. The detailing is crisp and realistic. Good Show.

I love the weathering, and the Build! Awesome Depot Hack conversion. Good Show. -
Nice Car! I owned one, when I got out of the USAF in 1988. It was a beater by then, and ran badly. I messed with it for a couple of months, and then sold it, and bought a junker 1968 Dodge Dart. The Dart was a Slant Six car but ran better than the Monaco, so I kept it for about a year. Sold it and bought a 1926 Model T Speedster.

And , here it is.

I have some ideas for making a Stock-ish car out of the kit. Leaving out almost all the Green Hornet stuff, and adding new wheels and tires. (the wheels from the either the '58 Christine kit or the '59 Imperial kit). Subtle things, but a change.

Homemade Tuna salad sandwiches. With Capers, on Artisano Bread. And a large glass of milk!

Excellent Colour Choice, and clean build style. Good Show, Johnny!

I hear you, Ron. It is no fun, and can be truly horrific to live with. I hope it gets better. Mine has dialed itself back to just the odd twinge, to be replaced by screaming pains in my left shoulder from the torn rotator cuff. Wakes me up at 3am a couple night a week, now.

Finally got the correct prescription for my glasses, after having had cataract surgery. I can see to drive again!! Also, my mother gave me my Grandmothers car to drive. My mom has been driving the car, for the last few years since Grandma passed, but I needed wheels, and it runs and drives very well. It is a 1987 Toyota Camry, with 108 thousand miles on it. For 37 year old car, it is in great shape. It is literally the "Little Old Lady from West Covina" Car. It is the same car pictured in both the Pic and the article. All I need to find now are a set of factory LE Wiremesh cast aluminum wheels for it. Mine has the wheel covers as shown, and I want to upgrade the rims. I'm very happy to be driving again after 3 years of Eye Problems and Surgeries. The Freedom to drive again, has cured much of my depression. I'm feeling much better emotionally, and while still searching for a job,, at least I can get to interviews on time without begging rides or using Bus Routes. I turned down job interviews, because it was just too difficult to go to the interview or plan on how to get to work, if I got the job. P.S. if anybody has a line on some Camry Rims, I'll be happy to follow leads on getting a set of them. So, things are looking up. Lastly, my 15 year-old grandson, was in his first (but not his last) High School Play. Kid went out on stage, and killed it! I am so proud of him! He did not talk about doing something, he did it! Way to go! https://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/a15142192/1987-toyota-camry-archived-instrumented-tes

The Future of Revell...for 2024 at least.
stavanzer replied to niteowl7710's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Yeah, I know about the Chassis Issues. I still want all three kits. The Spyder is my favorite, with the Pontiac #2, and the Mustang last. I hope Revell or Atlantis still has the tooling for these. They were simple, fun kits to build. -
Looking at the newest version of the Bronco, what are the differences between the new Outer Bank kit, and the older one? And, how easy are these kits to assemble? I was looking at one as a Slump Buster, since they are curbside, but it seem to have a lot of parts. Thanks for any help. Alan

Of 1957 Chevy Bel Air's - 2024, which to buy?
stavanzer replied to Jonathan's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
No, not the kit to buy. It is the old AMT 3'n'1 Kit, with all the custom parts removed. You can only build it stock, and some versions in that boxing are molded in blue. -

Sounds good to me, if that is the case.
