I saw this Welly Riviera today at Rite Aid for $9.99. I should have bought it but I have enough die casts that are packed away. But Target is asking $24.99 for the same car. And right now Rite has 20% off all regular purchases. Thought I'd put it out there.
I bought this kit that was 90 percent built. Brush painted orange. I was able to get it apart and I re-did the interior and exterior. This was soaked in purple power 4 times because I would somehow make the paint crinkle. Decals? Or no decals.
Thanks everyone. I was amazed at how much inner front fender I had to shave off. If I didn't there would have been gaps looking at the front tire from under the hood.
And yes Andre. I tried every tire I had but none would fit those wheels that came with it. So yes. The dreaded split tires. grrr.
I had to shave quite a bit of the front bumper down for that to fit and cut the bumper brackets in back to make that bumper work.
I agree Dominik. I'm starting to dread opening doors and trunks also. LOL
I have another 57 in the purple power right now. That was a mess. Brush painted black. Red brush painted interior. Hood is cut for the blower so a hot rod it will be. I did like the flame decals on it but they are now gone.
And most of the models I have built while a member of this forum have been started kits I bought cheap. I'm hoping to use those to get my building skills a bit better. Then onto the new ones I have.
I bought this kit started at a garage sale. That's why the front windshield looks so bad. I had to cut it out before it went into the purple power. The suspension, motor. all built for hot rod. But I do stock. So here it is finally.
The Micheals by me said they are not going to carry models anymore. I just bought a Titanic model at Micheals for my nephews to build and they are ringing up at $16.00. Not the $29.95 that is on the shelf.
Chicken breast seasoned with Greek seasoning then sautéed in olive oil and chopped garlic. With the drippings I added 2 tables butter then 2 tbs of sour cream to make it a cream sauce. Mashed potatoes with sour cream and chives with ginger/honey glazed carrots.
