    It's too bad they didn't reissue the standard bed version of this kit. As it is, it's the wrong wheelbase for a dually (duallies of that generation were longbed only).

    Never ordered a car... a couple times I bought new off the lot from inventory--though one was a dealer demo w/ 3500 miles, so technically used. My two most recent cars were CPOs..I've had good luck w/ low mileage 3-5 yr old CPOs--clean and loaded but depreciated.

    Overcast..but supposed to get to 65 this afternoon, and tomorrow rainy and 70... I'll take it..nice improvement from a couple weeks ago.

    Early spring up and down...sunny and up to 57F today, highs in the 60s the next few days with rain...NE Ohio, looks like the 1st will be only 41 and cloudy next week.

    When I was there last in 2015, I stayed at the La Posada Hotel and ate there--excellent Mexican restaurant...near the train station IIRC. I saw a couple old Crosley cars in a yard nearby.

    Saw the Stakebed Ford there 10 years ago when I was through there...

    Got two of those texts today. One claiming to be from the Pa Turnpike (haven’t been on it in 6 months) and one from Colorado (haven’t been on a toll road there in 19-20 years).

    I noticed at the Buckeye Classic that they had a table as did the other Jo-Han (Okey Spaulding)...but not near each other. I got some product from each.

    Was a warm but stormy day. Drove down to Columbus for Buckeye Classic show, got a few models and parts, chatted with a couple modeling friends.

    Beautiful weather today. Over 70. Work isn’t busy today. Looking forward to going to a concert tonight and the Buckeye Classic model show tomorrow.

    Others may rise earlier, with or without the time change I'm pretty consistently up by 7am, though the dogs often wake me earlier.

    Monkey Man is both a song and a film.

    There is lot of difference in quality of service depending on if it’s shipping from Amazon or from an Amazon Marketplace 3rd party. There is a lot of variability I’ve found.

    Yeah, same box art as the original.

    The ones I have I got from eBay seller Diolex a year ago or so, I think they are Andrey Bezrodny designs (the files are available on Cults3D for those that can print them themselves).

    For the Monogram Fiero it's kind of been on a 20 year cadence..first issue in '84, 2nd in 2004, 3rd in 2025...
  17. Rob Hall
    Yes. Was reissued at least once since the original issue.
  18. Rob Hall
    There are several available as 3D prints. I have a ‘73 and a ‘91.

    These 3 siblings turned 2 on the 24th. Got to get them groomed soon. Jack and his siblings Lulu and Lola.

    I used to see a Thunderchero in Tempe, AZ.. the front end of a '77-79 Thunderbird bolted onto a Ranchero of the same years.

    It would be nice...the thing is the Revell ad claims the mystery kit will be 208mm which when converted to inches then upscaled from 1/25th only comes out to 204.7 inches, too small for a box Caprice and the other speculated models.

    Looks like a software glitch more than anything else..I don't see any lines connecting the MMTC kit to anything else. Before my time, but I believe that kit was the AMT '27 Model T w/ some extra parts?
  23. Rob Hall
    Parts is parts.
  24. Rob Hall
    Probably a cost issue. Would have complicated the manufacturing process.

    Aspirations, frustrations, desperations, celebrations, conflagrations—all part of the rich tapestry of life.
