Heller 328 is dumb 1/2 windshield car, cannot be built stock. Oohh nose looks great!!! Wow. Got it right from this angle. Geez Some other stuff.
-
I magnified the E. Has early style tombstone seats. SU's look better, more rounded than the Heller one piece airbox/SU/manifold. Heller re-releasing the E FHC, so doesn't seem to be mod reissue. Wheels look more "Tamiya" depth than the Heller tire eaten rims. Wish hood down, nose is always hardest part. Good thread here on best E-type. Can't wait. Roadster ok, but LTW and Sayer coupes would slay. Could base Eagle on it too. Just hope it's good and sells. Belkits showed i30 and some other stuff I think seen previously.

I'll just leave this right here. http://www.mustangandfords.com/featured-vehicles/mufp-0508-jack-hazelgren-1963-galaxie-lightweight

Heller BMW 328 coming too. Great kit, chassis easy, can drill wheels like most were. Body fiddly but hardest part is hood paint/detailing. Hopefully full windshield version

2020 Kit Development Update from Round 2
keyser replied to Dave Ambrose's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
1: Mod/user will post notice of coming info. Actually could be good. 2: In less than a page, people will complain about company releasing news; revive the previous lengthy thread for the need for kit x to easily be retooled; demonstrate the total lack of understanding of where modern kit makers are making most profit (Sci-fi boomer), mock the admittedly silly branding tie ins (because non-builders buy them and builders get cheap reissue), and only thing that hasn't happened yet is tearing apart an unseen kit. Lather, rinse, repeat, close thread, try again. 3: The I'll wait and get one with 40% coupon or closeout buyers makes companies clamor for THAT scavenger business. Don't forget the guy that stands up in restaurant and tells us what a lousy choice kit Y is and he'll never buy one. We'll all alert the media. 4: Currently strangling a thread a week. Not always as funny as the im-?, but really close. 5: Really hope for cool stuff. -

Cal Custom 40-40 scoops, which kit ?
keyser replied to Greg Myers's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Thanks Casey. You're more tolerant than I sir. Doubt you'll get gracious thanks from Greg. It's the rest of our problem, not his. Chris, Casey is correct. Eldon/Doyusha Invader. Suggest you use another spokesmodel next time, or just PM Mark, Casey, me, a few others. Here's huge picture from Showrods .com. Great place to look for obscure speed parts and great builds. Credit to Mike Scott for the build. -
Seems like a lot of Ed Newton stuff on pinterest. I remember the car, there were a couple Larivee cars at the time with transverse DFV in pointy nosed winged turtledeck. IIRC it was Oakland winner. A start hopefully This isn't the car I'm thinking of but Ed based a couple things on this one. The real one reminds me of the Monogram Trick T , shorter nose, sort of, is that what you're thinking of?

Honest to god, I had exterminator in CA that used Nutella in traps rather than peanut butter. Hadn't thought of that til just now. So, FIFY "The early bird might get the worm, but the SECOND mouse gets the Nutella" Nobody should eat Vegemite. Sounds like a crop parasite, tastes like rotting grass clippings. Revella couldn't sella.
-
Wow. Nice stuff. Seems like line expanding, but vintage toy stuff looks great. They've got Breitling 1/72 Stearman decals too. Thanks for posting that.

Don't have to be first with idea. Just BEST. Like Revella Nutella. A snack, AND a non-toxic body filler for kits. Leftover container perfect for mixing paint for airbrush.

Monogram Beer Wagon Build Review Tom Daniel Tribute Build
keyser replied to hpiguy's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
When I was doing my post doc, I'd carry a giant 1liter trigonal sterile fluid measuring beaker filled with ice and diet Dew on rounds and on call. Looked like several bodily fluids depending on ice/drink mix. More thought it funny and gross than just gross. I just used it as it was biggest cup in hospital, and had a nice lid for suction that doubled as a straw holder. I've used bits of those things on builds over the years. Someone used to have nice Xmas Budweiser decals for the BW, real 50's looking stuff, and one cute santa's helper. ePay. ANyone else seen those??- 10 replies

Monogram Beer Wagon Build Review Tom Daniel Tribute Build
keyser replied to hpiguy's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Nice Scott. Plus Dew. Basic food group. I've got one in progress that I closed up hood and sides, pipes up behind cab. Also have a semi Mack flatbed in progress with huge Maisto wheels. Big Beer. Long road ahead, but fun. May drop regular BW onto flatbed- 10 replies

Funny thing is, most of the 67-8 chassis is still in use under 69's. I've used them for various bits in builders. So, R2 could conceivably retool a 67 body, use decals for side markers for 68, perhaps decals for upholstery, and boom. Original kit was great. No need for new tool, just enough to give R2 options for 67-69, maybe 70, and a Terlingua car on top. The chassis under the 73 Cougar IIRC is left from the 70. If body of CV, never reissued, is in a hanger shot, again, boom. I'd even ignore the plate fonts. Still won't buy Nutella, but I'd consider Revella Nutella. >:)
-
OK, I'm convinced. The plate font is CLEARLY the worst error. Scale stop leak should fix the hole in the block. Bwahahahahahahaha...breathe...Bwahahahahahahahaha

Red toothbrush Caddy TL for a sort of iconic stock look, and 88 for later.

Too blunt even for Germans. How about Schlachthof Effluvia Braun Matte??

Since it's s close, could you run in and see if they have '70 Chargers in that HL? Don't buy anything, since you support LHS. Just post up, you've got a bunch of posts here anyway. Thx

Cool thread, but hadda bust Casey's chops. 10yo thread, last post 4 years ago. But because Woodies, KH wires, and nice builds (Nice whack Bill), a pass
