  1. I love this tutorial ! Definite game changer. I used to only be able to find this stuff at Walgreens in small quantities which was fine they lasted a while , now you can find them in lifetime supply for relatively cheap on Amazon .
  2. That's the chassis from the AMT Jeep snap kit . The AMT-Top was built for AMT I can't find the proof but I researched it when I discovered this kit and that's what I recall
  3. Working with the clear plastic will be tricky . I think you could even make the side fold down to create a "stage" and be able to display several engines . That trailer is too short for an average sized person to be standing up in so for a flip up side or roll out canvas you'd need to add some height .
  4. Nice work so far ! I love it . I thought mine was neat because I made the steering work , now I see I could've taken it much further .
  5. I even know who that guy is lol
  6. In case anyone forgot the Ed Roth Surfite has a better than nothing Austin 850
  7. Was it just a revell Germany release or did revell US get it too ? I think I was waiting for the US release . Either way I think I'll hunt one down .
  8. I wonder what other variants Revell had planned and if we'll ever see them .
  9. I'd just add that fabricated chassis would have several different sizes of tubing plus you'll want extras to start over with or keep going so I suggest getting several sizes and get both tube and rod as sometimes one is better than the other . Watch out for warpage if using plastic it doesn't always happen but it can .
  10. You can get these rubber contour sanding blocks and cut them down to a more usable size or even at an angle . Perhaps not what you had in mind but definitely a good tool to have .
  11. That looks pretty good . I think it's kind weird there's not more out there , grilles and badges specifically but I'd guess there's some minor dash board and steering wheel differences .
  12. What's out there or has been out there ? I'm looking for photo etch , decals , wheels , conversions anything really . 1/24 Tamiya or revell
  13. I found it . Thank you for taking the time to look and consider what it may be .
  14. That's a good idea , I don't even know how to hunt down '70s and '80s 1/24 diecast . It most likely had an opening hood .
  15. I did a paper mock up to see if that would help narrow down what it might be .
  16. I don't think it is , I'm starting to think it's probably a diecast kit .
  17. There is " C 181 " and " 3599 " I kind of suspected a testors kit .
  18. I got this in a parts lot a long time ago and I've always wondered what kit or diecast it came from . The rollbars were chrome if that helps
  19. The two at that particular hobby lobby were the same .
  20. I laughed when I read the side panel
  21. That's a great tool . Thank you for sharing !
