  1. I would think it would be a preorder to run that mold. Say you have to buy 3 when your order. Do the molding companies even have a machine with a big enough platten to bolt it up anymore?
  2. Do yourself a favor and get glass cut. That way you will not have to worry about tire melt into the shelves. Yes it is possible when ypu get random clear sheet goods.
  3. You could do this as your grandfathers truck from when he was a car guy. Just clean it up and polish the paint after you get it back on its wheels. Would this have been the tow vehicle for the 34 you also have already posted? Move forward with Jeffs version with all newer kit parts like ypu restored Grandpas truck to your tastes without harming his build. I dont believe anything with this truck hasn't been reissued in the last 20 years. The bed is dark in the photo so I can't tell (on my phone) if that is a truck bed or from a rancharo. If you cant find any green that color look into nail polish colors. Sallys has a large selection.
  4. I think Junkman is correct. That is one Lindberg kit I dont have or have not looked at before.
  5. This is just like new coke and the return of old coke now called coke clasic in the 80s.
  6. The funny part about hobby lobby is 2 different stores not more than 15 miles apart one had kits marked down the other store did not.
  7. That vendor was up against the back wall right? If it was i did pick up a mercury kit he had for 15 bucks. I figured I spend more in gas looking at the ollies around me for that kit.
  8. It could be a strombecker model. not sure the pyro, lindberg or the other off brand had a one piece body with an interior molded in. Palmer was the other off brand. It does look to be kit bashed for the nice look it jas now.
  9. While driving fo the model show just north of Detroit on Sunday morning i came up to a Chevy Volt on 75 North. I was just getting into Detroit where the old Fisher body plant was at.
  10. I would think yes.
  11. I have not checked in on this for too long. This is smoking hot. Well done.
  12. Would the extra roof from the 57 thunderbird fit?
  13. Have you looked at best model car parts selection?
  14. This is very cool. So I guess they didnt include an aftermarket cross flow head we here they make in Australia for the straight 6. That Coyote is bad azz.
  15. What about just putting masking tape on the saw blade? As long as you dont go all the way down to the teeth and stay to one side of the blade.
  16. Not in a few years. If there is a swap meet close to you that is where I see them last
  17. Congratulations to your family. Looking ahead 2 years I can picture him in your lap with a smile ear to ear while he drums the work bench in front of him. Parts flying from the current rare kit saying I help you grandpa. 🙂
  18. Very nice trucks. Welcome aboard.
  19. I meet him at a car show in Lima OH of all places. Super nice guy.
  20. Where do you get those buffing pads or what ever they are called?
  21. This turned out very nice.
  22. Dave I already fixed that on my end and was logged in the new safer way. Maybe that is why it was smooth sailing. Thank you for your hard work here.
