This is a well-engineered kit, in my opinion. It practically falls together.

Are there any big NNL Events in N.C.? I would love to go to one where kit manufacturers actually have tables, Online hobby stores are represented, tons of vendors, t-shirts are sold. Like the Philly NNL, GSL, etc.

If the molding quality on this one is even close to the Nova wagon, I'm definitely getting one! Growing up, I saw many of these roaming the streets of my hometown.

Try Etsy. There are a few 3D printers that make 1/24 R/C accessories. There's also VCG Resins (they recently acquired Bollide Modelworks).

Re-mark your calendars! They moved the date up a week.

That's one of the differences of having a basement, and having a crawlspace. My hobby room is our 3rd bedroom, so it must be kept neater (wife has people over a lot).

Interior color choices. Dark green and white, or beige with dark brown (and white?)

The top is actually pearl white. I'm having trouble choosing the interior color. Here are the two options: (my wife already eliminated light gray). If green, it will be two tone with white. Tan will be accented with other shades of tan/brown. other shades of tan/brown.

My take on the Foose truck.

I don't have a picture, but I have an MPC '79 Monte Carlo "Wheeler Dealer" kit

Mostly box stock. The rollback bed was purchased from BCS Models.com (He now has a website. I bought mine from him through E-Bay). I added chains & a "hook" from the jewelry section at Michael's. The winch and jerry cans are 3d resin prints from VCG resins. Photo-etch grille and emblems from Model Roundup. Mud flaps also from Model Roundup, but the hangers are scratch built from coffee straws, with a kit supplied decal. Toolboxes are resin cast items bought at a show from Nibor's (garage/hobby shop?? Sorry,can't remember the name of his business). The tool box brackets are scratch built from Plastruct ("L") corner pieces. I also purchased a decal sheet from Round 2 AMT Great Dane trailer kit, to get the red and white reflective tape for the side.
