I believe I saw them. I will still let you know-- either way. Randy

Now, that explains things. I think I saw a bunch of those tires in the loose tires box that came with the kits. I'll print the pictures and compare them to the ones I think they are. If not I'll definately take you up on your offer for the tires. I'll let you know Tuesday morning Thanks!!! Randy

Hello all I picked up this AMT Jaguar XJ 220 kit #8608 and didnt notice that the tires were missing. What brand and size tires came with this kit? The directions are not really showing any detail on the sidewalls. Anyone have a clue Thanks a bunch Randy

Very cool Joe. I like it a lot. I'm building one box stock drag version Not as much detail Randy

Wow cant believe what I'm seeing. I have been hopeing someone would do a 67 conversion to the 66 kit. I used to have a 67 GS ans a 66 skylark. The interiors were interchangable for both years. I would just use the interior tub from the Model House or? So, it wont be 100% correct but then again YA got a 67 Buick GS when your done. My big wish by the Model companys has been for them to issue a 67 GS From what I see on the forums it would sell

George Chris @ scalemodelsbychris has the antique register I'm looking for!!!!!!! plus some other cool stuff. Thanks again George, Ed, and the others for the great advice. Randy

Believe it or not Scale Equipment doesnt have any listed/shown. I know I have seen a couple on websites but where. I have scatch built alot of it already so I guess I could try that also Randy

Hello Everyone I am in need of a early 60s style cash register for a old time gas station diarama I'm building. I looked at a few resin aftermarket sites but I'm not seeing one. Thanks for any help Randy

Chris I have a copy. I'll bring it to work with me Thursday. Send me a email (PM) and I'll get to you

Thanks everyone- Ill contact both these companies Randy

They look great. I'll try to get a hold of him if thats his web address. If not would you have his email? Randy

Hello all Does anyone here produce or know of anyone who will produce a set of decals for you if you provide them the image? If anyone here can I'll be glad to pay you for your talents. It will just be a name for the doors on a project for a upcoming model contest theme at the fall St Joeseph, Missouri contest and swap meet. Randy

Wait a minute. I've gotten myself confused. I just found a MPC 1932 Chevy Roadster kit for sale. It shows a roadster with a fold down top. At least that is what MPC calls. I've been looking at a few old chevy diecast available also. Correct if I'm wrong but didnt the Cabriolets have full doors/window frames? with a material top? Randy

You are right. It was a Cabriolet body style. I'd still buy a bunch of them. I had roadster on my mind from looking at a resin chevy raodster kit. I think it represents a 1928 or 1932 roadster. It is copied after a real roadster drag car from the sixties.

Hello all I got to thinking last night what old MPC model kits I would love to see in my local hobby haunts again is the 32/33 Chevrolet Roadster and Sedan Delivery. I would think these would sell really well for the "new" AMT. What do you guys think? I'm actually hopeing they possibly tool up a new kit of any 28 to 36 GM or Chrysler Roadster/Coupe. I think the fords are covered pretty well So come on AMT and Revell give us GM & Mopar guys something to rat rod. I can see a fenderless 34/35 Chevy coupe with a Buick Nailhead, white walls and some good old Roth stype metal flake paint Randy

Come on guys if it was a guy, hed be the biggest jerk around. kind of how people feel about the Bush brothers in Nascar. Danica needs to grow into the "racecar" driver she thinks she is. Everytime something bad happens she throws a tizzy as do some of the guys also. Grow up, accept accidents in the sport. God forbid anyone makes a mistake in Danicas world. Boy, I long for the days of Dale SR. I raced for years and you know what "%#@* happens" I guess I'm saying is if she really buckled down and stayed away from the freak nonsence and soap operas Nascar and some other motor sports have become maybe more good would come to her. We raced for years on dirt and just accepted others mistakes. I'm sure I made more than my share of bonehead mistakes in racing Randy

Larry Thanks for the info! It was an old magazine so I figuered he was no longer produceing this. Thanks for all the great articles Randy Webster

Hello everyone A while ago I was looking through a old Model Cars magazine and saw that a resin caster that I believe was Mill City Resin or something close to that produced a convertible body for the 70 Buick GS Revell kit. I'm thinking hes not in business anymore. Does anyone know if they are still around under another name? Maybe someone else might be offering it? Better yet, does someone have one they never used? Thank you for any answers Randy

Once again a BIG THANK YOU Randy

Bob Havent seen it yet but I was told two of my models are featured in the feature on last years St. Joeseph, Missouri Model swap meet and contest. My 66 olds Gasser and that Halloween Diarama made it. Cant remember if you took the photos though. Randy Webster

Hello everyone A friend and I scored some original issue Trophy series AMT kits last night !! Some are dare I say built rough, some started and some unmolested. I ended up with the Buick Station Wagon, 36 Ford coupe(built decently with chopped top) and the 40 Ford Sedan ( early try at collision and weathering methods- yep its really butchered but all the unused custom/option build parts are there for the Fords! That was nice . Heres my actual question: Does anyone replicate the original decal sheets to the fords? The sheets are partially there or used. They are so much cooler than the junk we get nowdays. Randy

Lets keep are fingers crossed Randy

Yes I do know Bob Black and Tony and Scott from Tonys. Disreptuble as they get!! Just kidding:) They are all great guys. . I helped vend at the Omaha show. Had a few models in the contest also Randy

Thanks Everyone my questions are answered. It was just something running around my head. I'm building a 1973 version of the "Pepper Shaker" right now and just love the custom parts in the kit. Bluesman Mark: gotta ove the stones saw them here in Omaha a couple of years ago. Still the best Randy
