So , I've been thinkin, I'm fortunate I have a 25 year stash, and I save anything even remotely usable, and being a kit basher,,, well . Needless to say I have a lot of parts. I've been thrashing through my parts boxes, gathering parts for a jalopy, a Mutt, a mishmash, a hodgepodge of bits, and parts. Lets call it a decompression build, You know, to blow off steam after a uh, mishap. No plan, You can NOT, have a plan ! I've got a few Junk box builds on the shelf too, but that's whole other thing. A 32 Chevy "vampire van chassis, I think an early 50s GM rear end , a front suspension and I beam axle from an AMT 37 Chevy .Maybe an inline six from the REVELL 41 Chevy pick up. All these parts are leftover from other builds. A set of big'n littles, ,white walls, BIG, FAT, WIDE WHITEWALLS ! A nice set of chromed steel wheels,,,,. There is no way I could build the stuff I do without my stash of kits and parts. Every kit I've ever purchased has been with " the intent to build",,,,,, or use for parts. I'd pick them up where ever I found them CHEAP. Another advantage I may have had, was driving for a living. I went all over this lower 48, visited hobby shops when ever and where ever I could to find that great deal. Any way, those days are long gone. I have to work with what I have, for the most part. I don't think there's any DANGER of me running out of kits or, for as long as I'm willing to hack into a perfectly good,, or even a great (?) kit , for a complete doner , or just a couple of bits n pieces. I will not be running low on parts. My stash of kits n parts , has no monetary value to me. I'm adding to the scarcity of those old Y-H mopar and those EARLY AMT kits, so the price just went up. I can justify ALMOST any behavior errrr, MODEL RELATED behavior that is. Manic, I'm going back to the bench. Oh yeah, and 32 Ford front fenders and running boards .
