I remember my Grandfather on my Dad's side had a '66 Rambler Classic and later a '74 Ambassador...I saw and rode in those cars as a kid in the '70s. Way back before my time he had a '41 Packard 2dr, a '49 Packard and a '55 Packard, I've heard.

Some of us do... my Caddy was in the $50k range when I bought it. With depreciation, though.... $50k is where typical loaded full size pickups and SUVs can get up to, or entry-lux cars like the BMW 3-series...lots of new cars in that range.. I see high end stuff in and around Scottsdale every day, not a big deal to see them.

Probably should take this to a hunting forum..don't see the relevance to model cars.

Sharp build.

It is an interesting approach...the dealer franchising laws are rather obsolete, interesting to see a company challenging them..

Boyer should have gotten a fine also, he started it.. I've been a Gordon fan quite a while, he was pretty much the first driver of my generation that hit it big in NASCAR. As far as Brad, he should use a hands-free set up for his cell phone when in the car... I can understand his wanting to catch up on his tweets and emails when stuck at the red..I do the same thing at long red lights.. Besides, he's 'Bad Brad', if the kid is going to stake his brand as a 'bad boy', he needs to accumulate some fines...good for the brand image.

Thought this was pretty cool..some large scale 3D printing... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2232252/The-secret-James-Bonds-priceless-Aston-Martin-DB-5-stunts-3D-printed-models-used-Skyfalls-dangerous-scenes.html

It's the first purpose-designed all electric that doesn't look like a kit car or a FWD appliance, IMO...it's a sharp, normal looking car w/ some interesting features.

That was a fun race.... dissapointed to see JJ's misfortune, though...don't care for Brad K.

I'm assuming it will follow the standard Revell release pattern---at the preferred hobby shops about 10-14 days from now, and at online sellers the first week of December.

I need to read up on how 3D printing works....how is the material loaded into the printer--thin sheets of plastic? I can understand how the software probably works, but have no idea how the mechanical aspects work..

Some of them had radios inside, and some had friction motors ('coasters')....I've got about 100 or so in my collection, ranging from a '58 Ford to the recent Challenger pre-paints (which aren't technically promos, but very promo-like). I've got a pretty good book on them on a bookshelf somewhere around here...

What's the difference between F-, L-, and G- 60s? Width?

That was 50 years ago when the cars were new and they had manufacturer access, though.

That's pretty cool.

Also need: Someone to comment that the plural of "URL" is URLs, not URL's.

Very simple explanation. It's a reissue of the Monogram kit. That's all.

Beautiful build.

Cool..

Got a bunch of goodies in the mail yesterday.. Motor City Resin '71 Ford Mustang coupe transkit, some Missing Link resin parts (Demon interior, Dodge and Plymouth dog dish hubcaps), some Modelhaus whitewall tires, a 2nd Revell '50 Olds, a 1:24th scale Welly diecast '11 Dodge Charger R/T, Scenes Unlimited steelies and wheelbacks...

There were some neat 1:24th scale plastic pre-assembled Top Kicks w/ various utility bodies made back around 2000 IIRC. I used to see them at my LHS back then.

Some kind of blind faith, I guess. I've ordered successfully from Perry's website, but that was about 10 years ago..

They resemble the drag wheels w/ the '77/78 Trans Am, but are those Centerlines?

R&R casts a resin version of the AMT '68 XL 2dr fastback annual IIRC...no one has done a '68 LTD formal roof 2dr yet that I know of...

The Modelhaus makes a very nice '72 LTD Brougham 2dr.
