  1. 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
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Recent pics of the Yorkie siblings Lola, Lulu, and Jack..recently turned 18 months old. Happy, healthy, full of energy...
  5. 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..
  6. Interesting. Wasn’t aware of a museum section.
  7. Rainy day, good day for a museum. Drove over to Warren, Ohio and toured the National Packard Museum. Some beautiful cars.
  8. 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).
  9. 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.
  10. 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.
  11. Saw a sharp olive green ‘69 Chrysler 300 convertible this morning, rolling along top down on the last day of summer.
  12. 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.
  13. I think it’s a Messerschmitt which was similar to the Isetta
  14. I think the '60 Corvair promo was a 4dr...don't know if it was available as a kit.
  15. 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.
  16. Visited the Wheels of Yesteryear car museum in Myrtle Beach. 100 cars from a man’s collection. Heavy on Mopars.
  17. Saw an Oscar Meyer Wienermobile today.
  18. Saw a bunch of nice Mustangs of all vintages coming into Myrtle Beach today. Apparently it was Mustang Week here. Alas, my GT is home in Cleveland. Drove my Caddy down for a week on the beach.
  19. Well, they didn't have a Valiant tool. Revell could have done it, though w/ their '62 Valiant 4dr.
  20. A short but very busy work week...got my fall vaccinations yesterday, feeling a but woozy from them still today...but happy only one more day at work then a week off......looking forward to disconnecting and getting in some quality beach time and an enjoyable road trip there and back..
  21. I saw one a few years ago, don’t know if it was an original or a tribute but was so striking.
  22. One thing I’ve wondered about with Pontiac in Canada in the 60s, I know the full size models (B-bodies) had Pontiac styling but Chevy engines and chassis, but were Pontiac midsize models like the Tempest, LeMans and GTO available? (In addition to the Beaumont which wasn’t a Pontiac, I believe).
  23. Those look like late 70s Granada/Monarch headlight clusters.
  24. There was a sharp yellow w/ black interior ‘64 Pontiac Parisienne convertible in Denver I used to see occasionally 20 years ago when I lived there.
