What are your Bucket List Kits?
ewetwo replied to Oldcarfan27's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
You are right Steve. One was on Ebay the other day and then gone. I don't know if they pulled it or what. -
I agree, I wish they did a couple other colors. I had one had built years ago. The whitewalls are turning yellow like the ones with this kit. These I just spray pained white. I am ordering a circle cutter to make my own whites walls. And foiling. That's impressive, I've attempted foiling and I know it takes practice.

I wasn’t building when it was last issued or believe me, I’d have one. Maybe one day. I’m going to build one of my other favorite carS that I owned. 1964 Galaxies. Light yellow with black interior. 390 4 barrel with auto. That car would move. -

They are hard to find and if one pops up on EBay. Final pricing is high. I can’t pay $70 for a kit. But it.was my first car, Black with red interior. Only had a 6 cylinder in it but it was a sharp car. -
This was a basket case literally falling apart as I walked back to the car from the estate sale I bought it from. Most likely it would have been in that night’s trash had I not have bought it. She’s 99% done needing a passenger windshield wiper which is being sent to me by OldCarFan Patrick. So I posted her anyhow. I did take 2 nice photos of it outside with the farm in the background but for some reason they would not load. Here she is. A Proshop preprinted kit which makes anyone look like a polished builder. That’s why I like them

Just like it. Wonderful. -
The one in Albany, NY has had the same stuff for weeks. I just checked it out yesterday. Though I have heard anyone talk about the Flintstone's car. LOL

I haven't seen the 71 t-bird yet. What's the box look like.

Nice Alan. I've sort of done that using a fishing box with compartments. I don't have as much loose stuff as you. I did sort the hub caps. Paired them up and put them in small baggies. The stragglers are in one bin. my interior tubs are in freezer bags. So I've sort of done what you did. But the boxes. Just flatten the lids to save them? And I have about 70 of more freezer bags with chrome parts still on the sprue. Don't know what they got to but I felt it better to leave the connected. I'm going to post photos t see if I can get help identifying the. They are useless now as I don't know what they go to. So hence photos of wanted things. Bill. I wish I had the memory but I don't.

Question. Do you keep the kit box once you've build the kit. And what do you do with the extra parts? Do you log them into your computer for fast retrieval? Or are they all in a bin but separated by wheels in one. Engine blocks in another. Inquiring mind want's to know. I have a ton of extra parts. But when I read someone is looking for something. It takes me forever to see if I have it. Of course a picture of the part would help.

Old School Retro Cool Custom '67 Camaro--Update, New Pics 10/9/18

Throwing in the towel. Need some advice
ewetwo replied to Project510's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I've quit a couple of time myself. Now I'm back into it. I did try to sell my kits. But everyone wanted to pay way less than the $10 a kit I was asking. I didn't want to break it up. Over 80 un-started kits for $800. They all said it was too expensive. So I kept them. Found this forum and I'm now happily back into building. So if you can pack them up. I would. Never know what the future will bring. And plus you have to deal with packing and shipping with Ebay. And you have to pick through all the crazies who will contact you through Craig's list before you find the one serous buyer. Is it really worth selling? And even on Facebook. Some clubs have member being taken for a ride. So even that way of selling is iffy. And if in the future you decide to build again. Imagine how expensive it will be to start buying kits again. Since I've been in the forum I've seen the prices on kits almost double. And I joined last March. OK. I'll shut up.
