  1. I remember the 2006 release had a taller hood scoop and different wheels (the Pontiac mags in some versions never made any sense). That box also called it a Duster. https://www.scalemates.com/kits/amt-ertl-38155-1975-dodge-dart-sport-hard-top--1155022
  2. I suspect there will be additional versions of the Demon and Duster coming...
  3. '64 Olds Cutlass AWB Streaker funny car.
  4. Probably the Mach-e...been around a few years, an EV CUV.
  5. Yes. I took a pic of it from a different angle.
  6. At the Plastic Unlimited show (Akron, Oh area) I got an MCW resin '70 El Camino kit and a few parts kits (Revell '76 Torinos, etc) for some future builds.
  7. The Crawford Museum had an open house and car show at their storage and restoration warehouse in Macedonia, Ohio this morning. Stopped there after going to the Plastic Undercover model show.
  8. Fun show. I saw at the AMT table some test shots for upcoming releases.
  9. The ‘79 (‘Bear Bait’) was MPC’s last Chevette annual, pretty sure it has never been reissued.
  10. If you mean the Möebius Ford F-series, Scalemates seems pretty complete. There are more coming that haven't been released yet. https://www.scalemates.com/search.php?fkSECTION[]=Kits&q=moebius+ford
  11. Ugh... that would be annoying.. I have no interest in any kind of decoration anymore..I used to put some up Xmas decorations at my last house, didn't do any last year at the new house, probably won't this year..to much work.
  12. I have some sort of electrical issue in my garage. Flipped on the lights at the back of the garage yesterday (separate from the fluorescent lights over the cars) and heard a sizzle, and saw white smoke coming out of a metal box at a junction of two metal conduit tubes in the rafters. Moved the cars outside, cut the power to the garage, got an electrician coming Monday....kind of freaked me out.
  13. Recent pics of the Yorkie siblings Lola, Lulu, and Jack..recently turned 18 months old. Happy, healthy, full of energy...
  14. Will have to try that. When I had a Cadillac STS a few years ago, mice ate the wiring harness when it sat outside. I have glue traps under my CT6 and Mustang, but the Jeep sits outside..
  15. Interesting. Wasn’t aware of a museum section.
  16. Rainy day, good day for a museum. Drove over to Warren, Ohio and toured the National Packard Museum. Some beautiful cars.
  17. For vintage, maybe an Aston Martin Lagonda, Lamborghini Espada, or Jensen Interceptor. For modern, a Bentley Continental GT or Mercedes CLS (1st or 2nd gen).
  18. I don't think there has been any concrete release info from Möebius about a '67-68 Chevy pickup, beyond a card with a prominent misspelling and a pic of a 1:1 pickup at a show almost a year ago. As seen in this thread below, first post. Just lots of speculation in various threads.
  19. When I was in the Outer Banks a couple weeks ago, I saw an Outer Banks edition Bronco in that green. 4dr of course. See very few 2drs in the wild.
  20. Saw a sharp olive green ‘69 Chrysler 300 convertible this morning, rolling along top down on the last day of summer.
  21. Though upon further research, I think it may be a Henkel Kabine or an Isetta. Google turned up pics of Isettas with that window treatment also. I’m used to seeing Isettas with the sliding side windows instead.
  22. I think it’s a Messerschmitt which was similar to the Isetta
  23. I think the '60 Corvair promo was a 4dr...don't know if it was available as a kit.
  24. There was a beat up silver Speedster in my Phoenix neighborhood. Use to see it puttering around all the time. Pretty sure it was real, looked like it had 60+ years of wear and tear. For recent sightings, I saw a number of ‘tuner’ style Japanese sports cars/etc on the road an in parking lots the last few days in the Outer Banks of NC. Some slammed, some with cambered wheels, custom paint, giant wings. Acura NSX, 3 Mitsubishi 3000 GTs—incl a beige Spyder and a black RHD GTO, a couple Evos, a gray R32 Skyline GT-R, lots of Civics. Must have been some event going on. When I was in Myrtle Beach last week, I found out had been Mustang Week—-saw a bunch of sweet Mustangs of all eras on the way into town. Saw a white Ferrari Roma today, first I’d seen. Saw a minty gold ‘83 RX-7 on I-64 in VA (guessed it was an ‘83 because the plate said ‘FINE 83’. Also saw a couple nice 90s 993-era 911s in traffic. Saw a gorgeous white w/ turquoise interior '66 Eldorado convertible rolling top down in Murrell's Inlet SC... I did see a Bronco Outer Banks edition in that sweet green in, of all places, the Outer Banks (Corolla, to be specific). 2300 miles of driving over 9 days and 7 states, alas most of the freeway traffic that I saw was pretty boring.
