  1. I can't recall, did the annual have those? I have the AMT '67 ht and convertible annuals, but not handy so I can check them...
  2. Yeah, I've only pulled out the body and instruction booklet on mine. I like how they packaged the decals inside the instructions.
  3. Looking good..looking forward to this...maybe someone in the aftermarket will do a set of wheel covers like on this one...
  4. Got mine today from the UK eBay seller. Bought on the 13th, received today the 26th in fine condition...
  5. I have an AMT box for a GT40 (with nothing inside) from the late 60s. AMT-232. I believe it was a rebox of the IMC tool. Kinda looks like the Ken Miles '66 Daytona winner on the box art. I also have 1/2 dozen of so variations of the Fujimi kit incl. one of the Revell reboxes, a Testors rebox of the IMC from the '70s, a built IMC, and a couple of the MPC Mark IVs--the '60s original and the early 80s reissue.
  6. Got a package from Japan and a package from the UK today w goodies
  7. Great timing, mine came in the mail today. There are several threads on it in the Truck section, incl. and
  8. Ah, the Lindberg Granada. That was one of the first snap kits I built as a kid 43+ years ago.
  9. Not recently...that issue is from 2003...
  10. First thing I thought of when I saw the Cybertruck were angular concept cars like the Citroen Karin and Aston Martin Bulldog...and vehicles from Blade Runner...it's definitely got a 70s-80s futuristic concept look about it. As for EVs, I'm looking forward to the Rivian and Mustang Mach E...I could see myself in a Mach E.
  11. Farrah's Foxy Vette and the Travolta Fever Firebird come to mind. Tied to the actor, not a particular role or movie.
  12. Saw it this afternoon, very entertaining...great visually and an all-in-all enjoyable film. Came out of the theatre and there was a red '05-06 Ford GT parked out by itself at the edge of the parking lot. Rare to see one on the street, esp. in November in Cleveland..
  13. It's both from the future and inspired by 70s-80s concept cars. It reminds me of things I drew at age 10 in 1980...Musk and I share the same birthday, he must have been inspired by the same concepts. Looks like could be in Knight Rider or Robocop.
  14. The problem I've had the 3 Autumns I've been here is the house to my north is unoccupied--it was in a trust, the owners passed about a decade ago, and their son drops by once in a while (it sold back in the summer and is now getting remodeled)...so no one picks up the leaves. Though most of the leaves in their driveway and front yard come from my tree (huge oak in my front yard a couple feet from the property line).
  15. That happened to me the last couple years after the last leaf pickup. The city leaf vacuum truck came down my street about a 1/2 hr ago, so the huge pile out front is gone. But there are still many leaves in the oaks in front and in back, so there is still work to be done.
  16. Sweet garage.
  17. I like Oregon..I need to get out there and see an old coworker buddy of mine that lives in Beaverton (we worked together in the 00s when we both lived in Denver). I love the coast, places like Cannon Beach, Seaside, Astoria, and driving up the Columbia River Gorge...
  18. My leaf pile on the tree lawn gets bigger and bigger. I've seen signs they are picking up leaves this week, but I saw the city vacuum truck go down my street yesterday and they didn't stop...
  19. Got my issue in the mail today here in NE Ohio..
  20. Yeah...I'd love to see cars like the Audi S4, S5, S7, S8, BMW M3, M4, M5, M8.... MB sedans and coupes, etc.
  21. I took a pic at the NNL Nats...
  22. Those would be interesting, Current Porsches would be nice--the only kit out there is the Panamera. I'd like to see more down to earth stuff like current Audis, BMWs, Mercs....
  23. I'd really like to see them do more modern European stuff, but that doesn't seem to be happening.
  24. Those new parts look great. The parts I've bought so far are for future projects. I'm very slow at getting around to building anything.
  25. If memory serves me, my folks first RV in the late 70s had those hubcaps on the front...it was a 21 ft Mobile Traveler Class C with a '73 Dodge Sportsman van cab.
