A friend keeps on getting me models and parts so today these two were in the bunch,a AMT early Blazer and Chevy van so if I can find a hood I am thinking about taking the suspension from the van and making a 2wd Blazer. Other then the hood all it needs is front springs and a transfer case.

The regular wheel Matchboxes could be played in the dirt without bending the axles.

Gave up on Hot Wheels and started collecting Matchbox again.

Did not make it this year but its a very good customs only show,was hoping the Golden Sahara would have been there after it got restored.

Did some digging and I do have tires and a stock 4x4 suspension but need one rim and need to find the rear roof and a front bumper and hood.

A friend dropped of a few boxes of kits to use for parts,none are complete and some have been started. Unfortunately most are what I have no desire to use so will fond homes for them,this is the only one I will build.

I will see if I can find a built one for parts and go on the back burner for awhile.

I picked this one up today and since the tires are missing I would like to make it more stock and possibly 2 wheel drive so did Revell make this in a stock version where I can rob parts from.

This one is not about the quality but it was not like it was shown on the box,back in the early 80s I picked up a larger scale General Lee and once I opened the box I found ot was actially a race car where I was thinking it was more a stock Charger with the General Lee add ons but no. I did build it and if I can find it im the attic I might smash it tp pieces since I still am disappointed in it.

I do all my builds how I would build it if I had the real thing and in different era's

I do have a stock Danbury mint chassis with rims that I will have to look at,if I can not find some vintage Monogram parts they might get used. Will look into getting a 41 Lincoln parts car first.

Yes I would be interested in it.

I wish that kit had other wheel option,its either the wires or the full flat covers. I want to build it as a late 40s hotrod if possible using vintage parts.

I would like to put on steel rims on the mid 60s 34 Ford kit and was wondering if any Monogram kits from that era had any that would work.

I would like to use all vintage Monogram parts on this build.

I will be working on the early 60s Monogram 34 Ford coupe/convertible.

What engines did the Monogram 36s have,I really want to use vintage parts on this build. I was wanting to build it just from what came with it like a kid would do in the early 60s but I have seen too much but if I could find parts that were in other kits of that era then I could do that since kit bashing most likely happened back then.

I have a unbuilt kit I want to build and would like to use only parts that came in that kit but want to build it before the OHV engines came out but none in that kit so is there any out there I can use.

I built a 78ish Z28 I think came from Revell that was horrible.

I am also thinking of putting a 4 speed in around a couple years after the swap the 221 tore up the original 3 speed so it got upgraded.

I plan on building it as the 221 was swapped in right after they came out in 62 so I want it to look that era.

I will have to find a junk Mustang body when I build it.

I am going to see if I can build it having the oil fil in the timing chain cover,I grabbed those parts off a 260 in a junkyard to make a newer 302 look like a 260.

I would like one that can be made stock and will have to substitute a generator for the alternator.

I will definately get it,the last versipn I built came with some goofy 80s wheels that I had to change to some that looked appropriate.
