I heard its an ugly fix. I have a 2001 Ranger but I don't have cruise control.

I got the oil changed in my truck this morning. that cost $32 and change with a discount. I'm driving the least amont I can right now. I have a 38 mile round trip to school 4 days a week. and luckly only a 3 1/2 mile round trip to work 3 days a week.

thats a shame. maybe Revell is using the promo tooling money to produce a ZR1 kit. I'd be shocked if Revell does'nt do the ZR1

its about $3.62 average here. I'm happy I bought a fuel efficient truck. I'm averaging about 28-30 MPG's out of my 4cyl Ford Ranger

looks great, you may inspire me to get back to rebuilding the 74 promo Javelin I have

Tower Hobbies says August. but I would guess late September early October

thats what I thought, thanks for the info, there's a 430 on Ebay with a silverish blue interior that looks pretty sweet, and I'd like to do that with a 599,

does anyone know what other interior colors are availble for a Ferrari 599. the only colors I can find is a few different shades of baige. and black.

looks great, i'm happy Revell decided to put a small block in this kit instead of the big block, but i'm sure future versions will have the big block

my first Revell Nova will be one of my favorite cars, i'll convert it to a 70 and make a Yenko duece.

I'm in school majoring in architectural computer aided drafting. off coarse i'm alot younger then all of you (i'm 23), but with my plan of study i'll almost always be taking classes the rest of my life as the technology gets better, I used to hate school but now I actually like it.

NASCAR does'nt own SPEED, FOX television does. NASCAR ratings are up so far this year. (IIRC up around 5-6% from last year, attendence at the track is down, but $4.00 a gallon for gas is the blame for that), I would like to see more of a mix. PINKS is a terrible show. but its one of there highest rated.

lets see, I'll do my current project for costs. it changes for every model I do model, AMT 1970 Coronet stock kit. I got it three years ago for $20, long before the new AMT announced the reissue. $18 is resin parts. to convert it to an R/T convertible (PSF hobbies pitchfork hood, RT tail panel and side scoops, Boot from the Modelhaus) not much PE, maybe $10 worth, but most is from the "P.E." spare box $10.00 (bought using coupon from Michaels a few years ago) Revell 69 Charger for some parts. like the RT emblems, single carb intake, carb, and some other minor parts $6.99 AMT 71 Charger, for air cleaner (although this one doesn't technically count because I bought it for the chassis, to use under an AMT 74 Road Runner) maybe $20 in paint, although I haven't chosen a color yet. with the math thats $84.99 so far, but I've been planning this project for several years. and parts have been bought over a three year time plan

I think Dave Despains rant from a few years ago pretty much tells why lets face it, NASCAR gets ratings. and they'll show what gets the ratings. I do enjoy watching the SCCA runoffs though. and the occasional F1 race. I am a NASCAR fan and I prefer NASCAR so I don't see anything wrong

good news. wonder if they tooled up new parts for it. if there are any surprises in the kit, The Revell USA boxed Audi R8 is also out. gonna have to get both this week

been waiting for this video game for two years and its finally out April 29th. hopefully by the time I have the game beat the Revell 69 Nova will be out.

since about 2005 they've only released 1 new kit a year. and 1-2 reissues. they just reissued the Lamborghini LP500, as well as the retooled Nismo 350Z. They haven't been around too much recently. but there still around. They are putting a lot of money in the RC business right now

The Tamiya kit will be full detail. if that means like how the SLR is (half engine with metal chassis), we will have to wait and see. I'm gonna wait until all the kits are released to see which one I'll get.

Its been very slow for me. not as slow as some people but still very slow. whats funny is that its twice as fast when I on a computer at school then on my home computer. my home computer has a better internet connection.

Its usually easy to sell kits at yard sales if you want to get rid of them. but if you want to make money off them that is'nt the place to do it. people go to garage sales to get bargains. my best garage sale find was a Monogram Ferrari 302 for $5

excellent looking Ferrari,

there will be alot of happy police car modelers out there, I'm still awaiting the Omni GLHS from them

I guess I fit under the "younger" people portion of this forum. and I have never built a lowrider, nor will I ever. I have nothing against them. Its just not what i'm i nto building. I build mostly 60-70 muscle cars. late model tuners, supercars. street/rat/hot Rods, and the occasional truck. I don't like the current direction this board has taken. It seems like there is more bickering and less building. It seems like when someone actually asks a ligitimate model car question it gets lost in posts of people complaining about donks. defending them. or just two people who get into a tiff and have to post 30 different topics on the conversation. lets just forget about all this and get back to discussions about models cars please. Okay rant over

I agree Billy. the Revell 06 Mustang is a great kit. and it still sells well three years after its release. I don't think we'll see it under it current body style since a restyled Mustang comes out next year.

I got Revell's Subaru WRX STi. nice kit, Revell decided in there infinite wisdom to convert it to an STi. but its missing the Brembo brakes (there are decals, but there brakes are not accurate) and the bigger intercooloer
