I just picked up this Johan 1965 Rambler classic promo of EBAY, and other then the A piller, b piller and rear fender its in good shape. now I have the issue of not knowing what to do to it, are there any kits out there that have similer lines to repair the front windshield frame, I may cut the top of, rescribe the doors and make it a rare Rambler 770 Convertible also, its pretty straight but just to be sure, this isn't the plastic that warps is it, I've seen some 64 promo's that are warped.

I looked over this kit at the NNL East, and I have to say, I was'nt going to get one at first, but now I have to get three, owsome looking kit, and all the optional parts are worth the price of the kit alone. nice to see all the options in the kit, thats the only real issue i've had with Revell's other hot rod kits (41 Willys, 32 Fords) is that there are no options in them. it does'nt matter to us posting here since the aftermarket has those kits well covered, but for the weekend builder it makes the kits, wel, boring.

Mine has always been the little details. I'm getting better at paint. my engines are getting better, my interior have always been decent. i've started weathering chassis, but i've always enjoyed the little details, like mud flaps, antenna's, stuff that should be there but most people tend to miss them. I also like electronics, starting to scratchbuild little satelite radio recievers, with PE CD players. also, every model I build has it own correct PA state licence plate, and inspecton stickers (depending upon the age of the vehicle.)

since where all car modelers here, lets find out what we all drive everyday. this is'nt a picture of mine but its identically. my Truck is a 2001 Ranger XL, wiith 50,000 original miles. 2.3 ltr. 4cyl. its a base model, no A/C, no power anything. only factory options are cloth seats, trailer package, and a dealer installed bedliner. its just a nice basic truck. and its a bit of a project truck. since I have plans for it. Mods: JVC MP3/CD player, to replace the terrible AM/FM stock radio lebra Tonneau cover AVS Vent shades Future plans: conversion to edge body style (front bumper and rear bumper) Ranger Thunderbolt grill 6" lift, Alcoa wheels. I SOLD IT, December 2008

i'd buy a few Durango's. and if you have the licencing to do a chrysler products, a Caliber SRT-4 would be nice.

Revell was going to do a Wheels of Fire kit of that but canceled it, shame, I would've bought a few.

is there a better chassis out there for an MPC 67 Toronado. I got a very nicely built up at the NNL East, but the chassis cracked when I was dis mantling's it.

I'm using Firefox version 2.0.0.3, and it has it own spell checker. helped me a million times

I recommend only buying Resin either on EBAY, or in person, the only company that does online selling correctly is the Modelhaus. The longest I've had to wait for an order is 4 weeks, and they only take the money when they get to the order. its usually only takes 3-4 days to get the order after they process it

great, now you have that song stuck in my head , awesome build

does anyone out there produce correct tailights to convert the 69 Chevelle to a Beaumont. I got the MCG set and resin for it but it does'nt include the tailights

try the AMT 67 Mustang. that one should work

awesome site, definitely bookmarked

awsome build, would be cool if GM would a special edition 1:1 when the 09 Camaro comes out, but unfortanently I don't see it happening, since Yenko Chevrolet no longer exists, and Yenko is now a Honda dealer.

Its a decent kit, AMT, Revell, and Lindberg produced that generation F-150 kits. only the Lindberg kit is a 4X4. which is the one you got, I havent built one but i've seen them built, and I havent heard anything wrong with them, only issue i've heard is that there is no window seal detail above the doors, thats the only problem I know of

awsome build, but IIRC, he missed the Brickyard that year in that car did'nt he?

thanks for all the info

does anyone know any kits that have a 307 V8, I'm building a 1970 Camaro RS mainstreamer, I was gonna put in an inline 6 until I read that only 12,000 1970 Camaro's came with six's, while 112,000 came with V8, so making it a six would actually make it a rare car.

I can't believe I forgot to mention my big Holy Grail, a MIB Monogram 1/8 scale 80's Camaro. I've seen several of them on EBAY, but they always go for big bucks. I wish Revell would reissue it, or any of the other 1/8 tools out there

does anyone out there produce any resin body's that will fit the Barris T Buggy chassis, I got this kit for free a few months ago and I will like to build a Dune Buggy from it, the Barris look is a little too out there for me

awsome build, always liked those older Matt Kenseth Cars, BTW, according to Jayski he ran that car in 2002 at the Coke 600

yep, Kieth Marks makes nice set, http://public.fotki.com/mofobow/chevy/cama...cripts_emblems/

I don't have many grails left, most of mine are sorta obtainable. but have been OOP for several years, here's a short list AMT VW Rabbit VW Scirroco MPC Pinto Wagon Pacer, any style 77 Volare Road Runner (Have a build up, would like one MIB) 80 Volare 71 Demon Johan AMC Rebel Mechine Revell VW Corrado Lindberg 97 Dakota (Being Reissued Nissan 1/20 Hardbody 4X4 (These have getten rare) Resin AAM S10 Blazer AAM Mustang LX Notchback AAM Mustang LX Hatchback

Like Bob said, the only 1/24 scale VW Jetta in 1/24-1/25 scale of that vintage is the Welly diecast, here's a picture of it, If the reader is just looking for anything of that vintage jetta, maisto has a 1/64 VW Jetta, that can be found at just about any Wal-Mart.

thanks for the input, I'm using the setup out of the Revell Escallade. also found a transfer case that should work.
