    I know some hate it when old threads are dredged up..... too bad. I just got one of these from an estate sale, for $40, still wrapped. All I wanted to know if it's a nice kit. And I assume Round 2 has not re-popped it.

    That's great! I built a Lambo S-tank, same idea, blast out something rivet counters will ignore.

    Very nice, you are very organized which helps too. I put a flamethrower spark plug on the Honda Civic I did last year. I also put cigarette foil on some of the bumper for heat reflector. I also read recently the Muira was notorious, so owners install Halon systems. Any bets Teslas will also have this feature?

    Uh, did I miss you finishing the Pagani? Love this subject, I have several 1/24 kits, and the Fujimi 1/16 that would need such attention. You also adding a fire extinguisher system?

    About $50, a bit steep, but nothing like the '68-'72 Chevy pickup kits people hope to get rich with.

    It's like a legendary barn find!

    Had someone whose dad died, had a bunch of models, many still wrapped, with price tags like $1.49. Some kits were started. The coolest I got is an IMC (Industro Motive Corp.) Ford GTP J car that was painted a bad white, easy save. Also got a Datsun pickup "California Sunshine" that was started, would make a cool autocross rig. Lindberg 1935 Auburn Speedster wrapped, Aurora Maserati 3500 GT, Monogram Cord 812, Monogram 1934 Duesenberg Weyman Torpedo Phaeton, and some other kits was my haul.

    Like I said. But I do have some bargain kits in my stash, good for those times when I want to start *and* finish in my lifetime.

    Good, I wanted to find this thread. I'm a lucky boy!

    My model area is about 4'x6', but I have a 3'x3' paint booth the other direction. Recently relocated the model stash into a 2' deep closet.

    I go through cycles. When I'm on a roll, I clean the workspace after finishing a build. Once in a long while, I add shelving, or go through parts stash boxes and sort out. I was working on two models at the same time recently, so now the bench is twice as cluttered. Then life caught up with me, and nothing is happening.

    I know the feeling of not being a perfectionist. I think it looks great! Nice color choice too.

    Because the topic of keeping kits sealed came up as a new thread, I opened this, and found out the tires melted the back window. This may be the last Revell and/or Monogram kit I will buy, ridiculous the windows aren't bagged.

    I've wondered about this topic. I used to not care about the value, and opened every kit. Recently have been buying what I could not afford, or simply missed out on, some are sealed. I asked about the Aerovette on a new topic a few months ago, it *was* sealed until a minute ago. I see the back window has the freaking tire burn! So that's it, not buying any more sealed Revell and/or Monogram kits anymore, that's BS the windows are not protected from the tires!!!!

    I started the transkit for the Paris Dakar, but life has put it on hold.
