  1. A couple more new reissues. Nice to see the Chevy truck back, now molded in white with a new tool of the ‘81-82 grille w/ separate headlight lenses.
  2. Productivity can be difficult to measure, it depends a lot on the reality context in which resource units perform work tasks.
  3. Works hard, Rob does whether in a cubicle, home office or open plan office.
  4. Looks like the difference is in the bottom edge of the top where it hits the tulip panel. I've heard that the shape of the tulip panel front edge in inaccurate on both the MPC Coronet and AMT '69 GTX. It follows the wavy line of the ht window opening, but the 1:1 is different? Never studied a '68-70 B-body convertible up close..
  5. Looks like 3D Scale Parts lists one also. https://www.3dscaleparts.com/product-page/1-25-amt-plymouth-gtx-convertible-top
  6. Employer(s) seek high performance resource units that can leverage core competencies and team synergies to actionize on tasks that yield shareholder value.
  7. Probably will work w/ the '69 GTX convertible also..
  8. Work from home provides a lot of schedule flexibility.
  9. At the show yesterday vendors had them for around $32-$35 IIRC. I've seen them on eBay anywhere from $30 to $40.
  10. A '59 grille and hood would be nice to see, better looking than the busier '60 grille, IMO. One thing I noticed in searching for images of these trucks is the huge gaps between the grille and hood...made that way, apparently. ('59 in red & white, blue & white '60)
  11. Both are restorable..the Torino has some glue damage on the decklid, the Monaco has the hood glued shut, unpainted, good chrome..it's a '78 (year on plates)...maybe the Force 440 kit built w/o the police gear..
  12. Windy, springy/wintry weather coming back from Columbus on I-71 today--snow flurries/whiteout/sun/rain..the only unusual car I saw was a '72 Dodge Coronet in black w/ white doors and roof...like an old school police car w/o any markings.
  13. Went down to the Buckeye Classic show today and got a few old models to add to the stash. The 72 GTO is a parts kit, I need the interior and roof to repair one I built as a kid 40 years ago.
  14. I want to build one with that scoop and the intake tubes…
  15. I remember Fisk and Cooper. My Dad had Fisk on his ‘67 Cougar and Coopers on his ‘69 Mustang at one time…
  16. Looks nice at first glance. Crisp. White wall tires, slicks, choice of stock wheel covers or Cragar GT wheels (not often seen), just like the annual IIRC. Stock hood and hood w/ hole and big scoop. Have to dig out my annual ht & convertible and compare.
  17. Mine came today. Haven't opened them yet.
  18. Driving down in the morning. Should be fun.
  19. This is 1/25th and based on the original AMT annuals. And has a chassis w/ everything molded in.
  20. Beautiful color. Saw a ‘66 convertible at a car show once in that color with a matching interior. Lots of great colors on the early Mustangs. Vintage Burgundy is a favorite of mine.
  21. One caster niche that I do miss are the chromed original kit reproduction parts that the Modelhaus did so well...their wheel covers, bumpers, etc were very nice to have available for restoring vintage kits and promos. No one else is really in that niche...
  22. Got an email that mine shipped today, hopefully have by Friday or Saturday.
