Sharp build..that engine looks great in there. Like the color and wheel choice..

That top pic looks like the beginning of a diorama w/ the weathering (natural dust, I assume). The rebuild is sharp!

Looks like an R&R kit.

Sharp build...I built that kit as a kid and was surprised as to how it has no inner fenders...mine is a yellow glue bomb.

Looks sharp...I like the '56 styling (the rear) over the '55....

Depends. I use Chrome, Firefox, Safari and occasionally IE as needed. I tend to use Chrome the most whether on a Mac or Windows.

Sharp build...

Good point..iHobby Expo is around a month from now?

Got the new issue of MCM in the mail today...looks like a good one. Nice to see the article on the D.R.A.G. resin casters..neat to see inside a resin casting enterprise. My issue arrived w/ one staple missing, so have to handle it carefully..

Wow..that is a sweet build...very clean. Like the color choices.

The new one has neat box art...

Another phantom engine option example is the AMT '70 & '71 Torino Cobra annuals and the '70 Galaxie 4dr sedan. All 3 kits came w/ Boss 429s which weren't offered in the real cars.

MPC '76 Plymouth Road Runner. MPC repeated the '75 kit (which in 1:1 was based on the midsize Fury) when in reality, the '76 Road Runner trim moved down to the new compact Volare...

Interesting..I missed that because the US rebox doesn't come up if you search on 'VW'--the RoG kits come up, but the US one only comes up if you search on 'Beetle' ---probably because the title of the listing doesn't have 'VW' in it and the search only looks at that field.

Sharp build...my long-time favorite team, and one of my favorite drivers of the era.

With the 'Rescue Van' version being reissued soon, I'd love to see Round 2 restore the tooling for the Open Road camper van version..never had that one.

You'd have to be pretty stupid not to see the danger in such a setup (exhaust fan spray booth)...

Nicely weathered. That would be a good way to build the Revell kit.

Sharp build of a rare car..

I think that is from the onions. I like onions, but they don't like me so I try and avoid them..i used to frequent White Castle when I lived in Ohio..don't recall seeing any where I was in Michigan, Colorado or Arizona. I generally avoid fast food, but once in a while I crave McDonald's breakfast biscuit sandwiches..

The hobby has a limited future if the only subjects made are old. There has to be a balance...the old stuff is great, but the limited selection of current subject kits is very frustrating. I like quite a few real world cars of the here and now and love to have more of them available in models....not everyone lives in the past and hates modern cars..that's a stereotype of modelers, it seems.

Oddly, the Limousine (sedan) is now showing as 'discontinued' on the Revell website.. http://www.hobbyshipper.com/cgi-bin/wsr600p?V=RMX&I=RVLS7083 I wonder what's up with that....cancelled?

Never had a problem w/ them either..I use the Private Warehouse feature to group items into shipments and with Fed Ex shipping it's usually 3 days from Japan, faster than many shippers with the US. I've been building Tamiya kits off and on for close to 30 years, my first one was the Audi Coupe Quattro kit back around 1985... as far as other Japanese brands, I've been happy w/ Aoshima, Fujimi and Hasegawa kits as well.

Sounds like what I was familiar with in NE Ohio back in the day...when I lived in SE Michigan it was similar, but with less snow but more ice and more gray...

Since Round 2 has been upgrading the tires in their recent releases ('66 Mustang, '69 Olds 442 H/O, others) it wouldn't surprise me if this one has the new tires...even without them, I'll probably get one..I like the retro box art..
