Jordan, that Ford will look amazing when you're done. Keep on going! What color is the body going to be, Pink or Florescent Orange? Don't laugh, I was there when that was the trend. Kinda reminds me of Baby Blue Tuxedos, or White linen jackets and loafers with no socks nowadays. Huh?

https://www.curbsideclassic.com/blog/cc-cinema/cc-cinema-1962-lincoln-continental-and-ford-thunderbird-wixom-assembly-line/ Interesting film footage of 1962 Lincoln Continentals and Ford Thunderbirds being built.

Don't forget about the Jim Ewing Superbell coupe.

I find it a very enticing display. Very eye catching - hope it works!

Remember, In the movie they were going to take the $80k and "buy a new rig". So if you look, the truck actually looks a little worn and shabby. The paint could just be black that's weathered somewhat. Definitely not a new truck, or why would they want another new one?

If just one vegetable is saved, then it would all be worth it. ?

?? Hi, Snake!!!! ?? I confess, I too have an addiction. However, I don't drink, smoke, do drugs or spend time carousing somewhere. My wife and family know exactly where I am every evening. I guess I'm just boring. But I'm content.

Maybe with all this Covid stay at home orders, the market for hobbies has picked up enough that WallyMart has taken notice. Hopefully, it can continue after Christmas.

Pretty sure they do pay attention to forums like these. Look at all the cool stuff they keep finding and releasing. Plus, do you think they would be investing so much time, effort and money in fixing old kits if they didn't have an inkling that it might sell? Some folks can criticize them for not making new tool kits, but they have a niche they've tapped into and they've got vast equity in all that they have. Think about it - Round 2 has reissued kits we never knew still existed and after all these years they still haven't found everything. That's quite a huge inventory! Doesn't hurt to keep reminding them.

How about Harbor Fright?

Whatever DID happen to Revells 32 roadster? I got one when they were readily available and then they weren't. Never saw them again, unless the Rat Roaster is the same kit.

Very clever, I'd love to have this for my home. My family is huge BTTF fans! Casey, does this count as a religious topic?

See how #s 2, 3 and 5 are incorrect for a 69. With #5 being the most weak detailed and muddy in the scallop area. #1 and 4 are correct, but for some reason never ends up in any current reissue of the kit. AFAIK. I wonder what happened to it?

$7? Where do you see them for $7. I see them starting at $14.97 and go up from there. Or are you already anticipating the after Christmas blowout?

Never saw that one before. At first glance, I thought it was the Revell kit, until I saw Mr. Speed. That's a cool variation!

Good selection and good prices. I hope my WM gets some, but I doubt it. Funny how the Coca Cola kits carry a premium price. Must be targeting the collectors.

Then where does the driver sit?

Yes I did.

I doubt it. I remember reading somewhere that Monogram didn't butcher any of their tooling, they simply made different inserts to create reversible variations. I hope that was correct. Especially for the Turbo T/A that I posted earlier.

Both very classy!!

That low angle front shot looks real! Great job!

I never realized how close to stock the Foose cab is. I just assumed the whole body was massaged so that nothing was left alone. Now I'm going to have to find a Foose for my own. You've inspired me!

Oooo, I like it on a GTO! Now I have to decide on this or turquoise. Decisions, decisions.

I bought a bunch of these cheap when nobody else wanted them. I don't know if anyone is aware, but the chassis, engine compartment and engine parts fit really well in both the AMT and MPC 71-73 Mustangs. Adds much more detail than their original parts! And you can use the roof to create a Mustang Grande.
