I'll be happy to get the 64 1/2 Plymouth Barracuda, and the 60 Chevrolet Nomad. I wonder will the 273 from the Little Red Wagon/Touch Tone Terror fit in the chassis, as I bought a couple for the original annual. I also have a set of the Sport Wheel Covers from the annual 65, as well as a small block Mopar/727 Torqueflite from VCG Resins. I hope it has the Formula S stripes and trim, as well as Multiple wheel trim options.

I like what you're doing. I sold Chevrolet from 1978 through 2002. My first Demonstrator was a 1978 Nova 4 Door Sedan. I'd like to build a model of it. The parts you are doing, save the wheelcovers will get me close to building a model of that car. If I can't get a 4 door body, I can make one myself.

Personally, I have no problem with Chris'(HPI Guy) kit reviews. They tell me what's in the kit, and how they fit together. It seems to me that he has a good time doing his films and explaining his builds. I wish him well, and look forward to more of his reviews.

Iceman Collections has a beautiful set of steelies and dog dish caps that will work on one of these.

I really like the AMT 1/16 scale 1955 and 1957 Thunderbird, as I bought and built them when the kits first came out. I hope that I can disassemble and repaint the 57 in an accurate paint color. The 55, I hope I can polish out the 40 plus year old Testors black enamel. I did mine with the wire wheels and the whitewall inserts on those hokey tires. I haven't seen it in 5 years, but it looked fine, and I stored it with no weight on it not to affect the pillars. I have an unbuilt MPC 82 Trans AM, and I recently bought a Revell 87 Firebird Trans AM GTA. I have a set of Ray's Decals Tail light Masks for them. I only wish that I can get some decent modern 18" wheels and tires 3D printed for them, as well as my built up Revell Camaro Berlinetta, that I built when the kit and the car was new. I polished my 1/16 Camaro IROC Z, that I did in white, with gray trimmed wheels and a black interior. It's safely in the basement, along with the others.

I have the First Revell Issue of the 70, as well as 68s and 69s. I'm going to get one more 70. I have some Panther Pink and Plum Crazy paint for the build.

Coming Soon from Atomic City's JoHan line of new kits
Ron Hamilton replied to thatz4u's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
You have to be able to justify the price. I did. I buy cheap whenever I can. The great thing about resin, hot lacquer will not affect it. Styrene on the other hand.... -

The pricing of the resin 66 Fury lll Convertible is not too hateful. Have you seen the starting and finishing pricing of a mint kit, promo, or clean built up of one of these? Unbuilt resin has gone up in pricing. I have a few pieces in the basement that are going for $200 up in the secondary market. Can we say Unbuilt/ clean kits from the 60s /70s, as well as resin? The market spoke, and the Hardtop isn't going to be cheap either. I plan to buy one when thyre available, to go with my other full size 60s Mopars. -

Yes. That is a convertible on the box, but Revell is going to do the convertible too. -
Moebius Wrecker Truck Announcement
Ron Hamilton replied to Erik Solie's topic in Truck Kit News & Reviews
I'm good for a couple them. I already know how I'm going to paint it, as I used to sell new Chevy Wreckers in the 80s. -
Moebius 1968 Mercury M100 Announcement

I got the 69 Ford Sport Wheel Covers from Missing Link Resin. They were originally in the MPC 68/69 Jeepster. I modified the wheel centers and painted to Ford specs and painted the white walls on the tires.
