New AMT releases and an extra MPC Chevy pickup.

The rust on that LeMans reminds me of cars I saw in the Florida Keys when I was a teenager living there in the 80s. The particularly weird or beat ones often ended up featured in the local newspaper 'The Keynoter' every week as 'Keys Cruiser' of the week... a buddy in high school had a very rusty late 70s Granada 4dr, at the end of the senior year he and some guys in auto shop class sawed the roof off, drove it around as a convertible...

I’ve been thinking about a van camper conversion. Would be fun for summer and fall weekends around the Great Lakes.

I've gotten used to driving vehicles w/ all the mod cons as the Brits say (modern conveniences).... power everything, heated seats, heated wheel, bluetooth, remote locking, satnav, Sirius XM, backup camera, push button start, etc. Driving my oldies once in a while is a shock... crank windows, manual seats, opening doors w/ a key, etc..

Businesses that don't return phone calls.

I drove a Transit high roof van rental over the last week from Penske. First time I'd driven a Transit, different feel and interior than the Chevy Express/GMC Vandura vans I've driven. Wasn't bad...would make a neat camper van.

Recent pic..unshaven, with puppy attached.

After losing two senior Yorkies in March and April (Henry and Ginny), held off a bit but last week adopted two Yorkie puppies---sisters Lulu and Lola. Haven't had a puppy in years, they are a lot of fun...and so much ENERGY!!!

I have a '78 Impala 4dr from them, along w/ a '79 Continental, '67 Cougar and '68 Ford LTD 4dr sedan. They are pretty smooth, but like any 3D printed product, will require cleanup.

They have very nice products. I've bought a few sets of wheels from them and a few kits.

Bought a hot tub for my new house...should be a relaxing way to enjoy the backyard.

There was a resin '68 Ranger grille once available a few years ago, but I think the resin caster is out of business...

Don't think I've seen one of those anywhere in resin. Would be nice to have to use in a '90s AMT F150..

VCG Resins makes a stock 240/300.. https://www.vcgresins.com/shop/p/ford240300i6stockenginekit

Neat...a Beetle done like a Mini Moke or Fiat Jolly.

Iceman Collections has a few, https://icemancollections.com/collections/engines?page=3 as does Texas 3D Customs. https://tx3dcustoms.com/collections/engines Both have excellent engines.

It wouldn't surprise me if JR Salvinos doesn't tool up some early 60s NASCAR Plymouths for their Petty versions eventually.....

Googled it, it's Joe Wheat/Memory Lane Models that made retro promos of the 70 maybe in the 90s... that is what I was thinking of, had seen pics of them before.

Though there wasn’t a kit, pretty sure there was a ‘70 convertible promo. I do have a resin ‘70 R/T convertible body I got maybe 15 years ago.

He does group preorders for two-three weeks periodically on his FB page, most recent was February. next one should be this month.

Heh-heh... I came back...lived in Colorado then Arizona over 20 years, moved back to NE Ohio 6 years ago...just bought my 2nd house here, a few miles from Lake Erie.. love the North Coast in the Spring/Summer/Fall and tolerate the winters..

Probably. Looks like a custom version of the regular BH truck.

Yeah, extra lights..can see it on the 1974 box art...

Probably some sort of extra part from past versions. I can’t check mine (packed away). Can you post a photo?

The original didn't have a camper shell. You are thinking of the teal 1500 extended cab kit.
