Love The Name. Looks like something I'd see a Famoso Dragway.

IH Emeryville with Flatbed
stavanzer replied to DRIPTROIT 71's topic in Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Wow! What a Sharp Build, of a Truck I've never seen before. The Yellow is a good choice. It makes the truck stand out well. Good Show. -
Looking Good! That Engine is a Lump, but not bad , considering....

Finding out that the County I live in, (Kern County, California) has an Unemployment Rate of 9.0%. Up from 8.2% in January. No Wonder it's so hard to get work. County Sponsored a "Job Fest" last Wednesday, they had over 2500 people show up. You could could smell the desperation from the job seekers. I keep looking, but so far no luck...... Anybody need a 'work-from-home' Truck Dispatcher?

HPI Guy has a build of it. Pretty Neat, other than needing new Resin Wheels and Tires. And it does need them, Badly. That said, the rest of the kit looks really decent for a kit tooled in the early 1980's. The new decal sheet is awesome, and if you intend to build any 1980's Ford Pickups, I'd order a replacement sheet from Revell just for the many sharp decals on it.

Great Idea, Les, but be sure to get one that has a Brass anvil not plastic. The last few Leather Punches I've seen are cheap copies, and have a plastic anvil. They won't work or cut well. (the anvil is the little Gold-Coloured button thing on the bottom of the pliers. That's where the cutter will hit)

Very Sharp Builds! A pair of Excellent Rigs and Racers! I really like the Coo Coo Marlin set! Great Paint, Great Details. Good Show. -
Yes! Bring On the Thunder-Z! The hardest of the MPC Camaro kits to find & get. I've been outbid on about 5 of them, in the last few years.

A Tanker or Tractor Trailer would be Cool options! Or maybe some kind of One Ton Variant.

How Wonderful that you passed down a Family Name!

Revell: Stranger Things; Billy´s Chevy Camaro

Sure! -
Hey, Round2/Steve. While we are talking about the '34 Pickup, can we please have you alter the tooling on the Chrome tree and get rid of those Horrible, horrible rims that Lindberg substituted into the tool? Those "Champ 500" wannabe's are truly awful. Can we get the '64 Vette rims, or the original Custom Wheel Covers or just about anything else back in the kit? Please? That is the only Flaw in the otherwise excellent '34 kit.

I can handle those same Electric Jobs, Mike, but that is as far as I'll go too. Anything else, and it's Call a Pro.

Great , Imaginative Build! I really like the use of the 1/35 detail parts and the Walmart Trucks. Clever and Inventive work. The Finish is well done also. Good Show. -

Wonderful News! I am so happy for you! I too wonder about the name Rabell. Is it a Family name? I have 4 Grands, and a 5th on the way! Mine range from 18 to 6.

I hear you Mike. But, I have the Cleanup Bills from the last time I tried my hand at Plumbing. I call a Pro now. It's cheaper, than Servicemaster.

Atlantis rolls out ex Revell 57 Chevy Nomad.

I love that old Revell '54 kit! One of the first Models I ever build (and Finished)! If you ever want to part with the '54, LMK! -
Will R2 going to put any models this month?
stavanzer replied to slusher's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Last Bluesmobile version would be the stock '74 Monaco, with the best hupcaps, and sold as a Snowbird Car/Grandma Grocery Getter. The Taxi and other Light Commercial options will sell better I believe, especially a CHP Car. They were every where when I was growing up in California.
