Dr. Cranky

Beautiful and jaw-dropping amazing all at the same time. Truly inspirational about what can be done in model form.

I think they look very cool.

The pleasure is all mine, Anthony. I am happy you found it useful. Thanks.

It must certainly would. Great idea.

Great job on the flinging of the mud . . . it's subtle touches like this that make a model like this one stand out. It's a charmer, all right. I love the trunk load too. Great job all around. Congrats.

Wow, this is one mean looking goat. It's coming along great. Keep it going.

You are right, Jim, which is why I get them from Coastairbrush. Sometimes if they are out of stock, then I go to TCP Global, etc . . .

You are on a roll, buddy. That's great work. This is going to be one of those stand-out, runaway crowd faves at a show. Very cool. Keep it going. Take your vitamins and keep it going.

Very generous of you. If I recall, that Gas Station kit costs about 45 dollars. I got mine from a friend. But I'm just curious what that kit would go for these days. Let me guess, 45?

Mark, I have one of those too and we are thinking alike . . . a whole scene is what Doctor Cranky would prescribe for pure fun and eye-candy-age! :lol:

Thanks, everyone. Your comments are always echoing and resounding between the Lab-RAT-ory walls! :lol:

That and the kit already makes it a must-buy. Can't wait.

Terry, yes, thank you . . . I've gotten stuff from them before. They are an excellent outlet.

Ooh I love the way you put them in the scene, and the lighting in the photographs are adding a nice touch too. Great job!

Looking super cool so far. Everything about it makes me want to drive it. Great seats too. Nice work, please keep it going.

Looking good. I like the mods you've made so far, and those wheels are perfect.

Outstanding so far. Keep it going. Can't wait to see more.

Chuck, it looks like this one is going to have all sorts of added parts to it, including that front bumper!

Perfect, thanks, buddy. I will look it up.

Here's what the ad says: * Scale: 1/25 * Skill Level: 2 (ages 10 and up) * Glue assembly, paint required * Molded in white, plus clear and chrome parts with black vinyl tires o Modern generation kit engineering o Deluxe retro packaging with optional parts o Retro styled packaging licensed by Chevron/Texaco I am excited about what this "modern generation kit engineering" could be.

Thanks, Chris, that does sound like a great deal because with 4oz of uncut stuff, you can make a lot of paint! Oh, can you give me the specs on what PPG clear you use?

We will buy a whole bunch, but I am wondering if anyone else further information on what would be "new" about the kit, other than the decals, etc . . . does anybody have more information on this one? When Wally World used to sell them for 8.99 I bought an whole bunch, but now my stash is way low. I'd love to see the street version of this come out with a retooled suspension, etc . . .

Yes, my friends, Doctor Cranky is very happy about this, and it sounds like if they've retooled a bit of the kit. I hope it comes with a lowered suspension, etc . . . if you guys know more information about this, please share it: http://www.modelroun...t-p/amt-679.htm

That looks super cool, and it makes Doctor Cranky do the Curly on the floor! Now all you have to do is build more!

That is one smooth and clean model. I really love that engine and chassis.
