How does that help someone find a source for cut-outs?? The AMT #1176 (and earlier issues under the Polar Lights brand) '65 Dodge Coronet has a full exhaust system with turn outs/cutouts:

Information on Monogram's Exotics Series
Casey replied to oldcarfan's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
These (IMHO) almost perfectly align with Atlantis' modus operandi, so IF they have the molds, IF they are in good nick, and IF they can acquire licensing for the multiple manufacturers represented in the Monogram 2100 Series kits, I could see it happening. -
Anybody seen one of these models before

How many do you need? Please post in the Wanted section further down the forum and I guarantee you'll get at least one response...maybe even some free tires.

Information on Monogram's Exotics Series
Casey replied to oldcarfan's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
While Monogram did label some "foreign" sports cars under the "Exotic Car Series" (Lamborghini LP400s, 1/12 Ferrari F-40, Lotus Esprit Turbo), they were not really part of the series being discussed here, so I wouldn't include the BMW 635 coupe nor the Mazda RX-7. -
Sounds like a detail which was never seen as important enough to correct by MPC back in the day. Now we know what to correct if desired. 🙂 Box art could be far worse, or more misleading, or... Honestly, this is just one of those kits where what's in the box is simply the last of the run after things were changed annually. Not the best detailed, not the worst, but if you want to build the last of the big Caprice coupes, this is a good $32 option.

I'm pretty sure there was at least one '90s AMT kit which included that decal. 🤔

Ford C-Series NASCAR Truck Hauler Mystery
Casey replied to Ramblin Randy's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I think a list would be very helpful, especially with images directly uploaded to the forum, for reference. Have you looked into the forthcoming Moebius ramp truck body yet? I would think that'd be the most popular subject for the next few months, and that particular ramp truck body seems to have been used by more than one race team in the drag racing realm. Are you only interested in your truck and/or NASCAR team-specific usage/history, or all ramp beds? -
Is it correct on the model? Is that piece represented on the A-pillar?

Microbreweries have exploded over the last decade in the U.S. I forget the exact numbers, but where once there were less than 100, there are now thousands. Not a bad thing, as it's wonderful to have options, and there may never be another time like this where one person's specific tastes are catered to by multiple breweries. The experimentation and innovation microbrewers are able to pursue is something not really possible with large, corporate brewers, but both can exist and serve their customers.

Possibly. If so, was it properly protected, preserved, with all inserts intact for 50+ years? 😬 I can't see anyone else but Atlantis attempting to reissue it, so if it exists, and if it's viable, sign me up for one. -
Looks like there will be a European release of the '71 Olds 442, too: https://www.models2u.co.uk/contents/en-uk/p16821_Oldsmobile-442-Coupe-'71.html Revell 07695

Maybe the Lindberg kit? I missed the curbside comment earlier:

What color is the plastic? Silver is likely 1/25 MPC, red likely 1/24 Monogram...hopefully not black, the Revell 1/25.

That's a bit brief. 🐓🤔
