MCM Ohana

MCM Ohana (6/6)

  1. I have an unbuilt 73 Charger in the collection. I never opened the bag thevparts are in.
  2. Now I know that I wasn't crazy for buying a stock 74 Charger body for my used 74 Super Charger built-up I got from a good friend. Also, I bought a resin flat and domed hood, proper center cap rallye wheels, and Keith Marks Charger Rallye decals. I also have a mint in box 73 Charger kit. I'm tempted to re-do the guts, using the AMT 71 Charger R/T. I'm glad I bought some extra 71 Charger kits. I still have a 72 Rallye to resurrect.
  3. I haven't picked up my kits yet, but I did get some grilles from Canuck 3D for my.projects. I sold a few of them as new and used cars when they were new. I even had a black and silver one for a demonstrator in 1981. I'm building a model of that, but I'm going to bring it to 2025.. I have several sers of 3D printed engines and wheels and tires. I'm so glad this kit is what it is.
  4. I wish I lived near the store. My wife will be able to find me there.
  5. Looks great so far. I love the concept.
  6. My best friend sent me a black one. Gorgeous!
  7. Mine came in the mail last week. I am very impressed.
  8. He did a fine job on this one. I have several AMT 68 El Camino kits, including the last issue of the street machine. I plan to use some ZForce Modelworx wheels and a Texas 3D LS engine and Transmission.
  9. Canuck 3D has the 98 up interior parts for the AMT 90s S10/Sonoma/Blazer trucks, as well as the grille/ headlamps for the same. I'd love to see a full detail 4 door Blazer/ Jimmy. I have several of those kits. They're very nice.
  10. My wallet is safe this month, as I have unbuilt examples of each of the model cars I want.
  11. Tom Coolidge was one of the best resin casters. His products were eclectic, but excellent. I have several of them, and I am a very happy customer.
  12. I had planned to do the 68 Dodge Coronet to bookend with the Revell Dodge Charger, as I have a R&R Resin 68 Coronet R/T. But of course MPC reissued the kit. Oh well.
  13. I bought two of them as soon as the kit was available. It seems true to the original, other than the too small wheels and tires, which I was able to take care of with Resin repops of the original Appliance Apache Wheels from the original annual AMT 67 Camaro SS Hardtop kit. I detailed and mocked up a set for a later kit build when I can. The tires in the photo are just placeholders. I have yet to compare this kit to my other AMT Imperial kits in my collect. A 1966 Imperial LeBaron Hardtop can be made from this kit by an enterprising. Talented Modeler. The inter is there if you leave off the Green Hornet Accessories.
  14. The 79 Camaro is a must have for me. As a young car salesman, I had one for a demonstrator, which was medium red metallic, with a camel vinyl standard interior, whitewall tires and color matched Rally Wheels and sport mirrors. The company let me pin stripe the car with gold and white stripe tape. I drove the car a short time before a local business owner bought the car. I'm going to do that car to the best of my ability. I'll have to remove the fender vents and the spoilers, as well as fix the side window profile. I don't forsee a problem with the Rally Wheels, as Canuck 3D does Avery nice set. I built this kit in the early 90s, and I still have a street machine version moulded in black.
  15. I had the stock height and chopped top multi piece Revell 57 Ford Ranchero kits in my collection One was sort of a gluebomb, so I used pieces of it for other projects. Most of the stock roof version went into a Jimmy Flintstone 57 Country Sedan. When Revell introduced the 1957 Sedan, I decided on a Ranchero project. I used the bed and Tailgate from ol' blue, some sheet and rod styrene and some scratch building, and I came up with mine. No its not resin, and I am very satisfied with the result of my build.
