  1. As seen on a 1:1 in Brian Austin's post right above yours. Unusual looking lights. If they eventually do a stockish ambulance, I hope they will include some whitewalls and wheel covers.
  2. Yeah, I can't imagine it would be very noticeable... sitting here at my desk in my home office, I can see a Revell '72 Cutlass and an '83 Cutlass on my shelves...have to compare the 455 and 307 to see how they compare visually..
  3. Sad to hear... I remember him in a few episodes of 'Entourage' about 15 years ago as a fictional version of himself...funny guy.
  4. No surprises, Round 2 did the new front end parts and wheels tooling for the JB kit, so I assumed this would be the same, just new box art and decals...
  5. Hasn't the AMT version only had a race car interior since it was first reissued as the 'Macho Mustang' in the late 70s? I don't recall seeing one with a stock interior in the reissues in recent history...
  6. Yeah, either generation of GM pickups have lots of possibilities for new tooling and variations. Would love to see them. ‘61-71 Dodges would be nice also.
  7. Very cool Gremlins...now I'm getting the urge to kit bash one with a Jeep and do a desert Baja style racer...
  8. It just seems odd that Ed would give out internal corporate info to an outsider...
  9. Yes, that. I have that box, but it's empty...
  10. Heh, heh isn't that special.
  11. Per Wikipedia, the '70 442 was available only in fastback (ht and pillared) and convertible trim. The formal roofline (Holiday coupe) was only available on the Cutlass Supreme. (The SX was a package on the Supreme). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oldsmobile_Cutlass
  12. That's a big statement. I didn't realize you worked for Revell and inventoried their tooling.
  13. Model Roundup has the regular T2 bus (orange) in stock, I figure they will get the camper version eventually. Revell Germany releases have been very erratic and hard to find in the US for the last year or so, supply chain issues and other covid-related slowness I'd assume.
  14. I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't do a '70 Cutlass 442 Indy Pace Car convertible variation.
  15. Maybe this one? Sounds like a nice coffee table book. https://www.amazon.com/James-Bonds-Aston-Martin-DB5/dp/1858756103/?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_w=jNbtw&pf_rd_p=29505bbf-38bd-47ef-8224-a5dd0cda2bae&pf_rd_r=FXVK0V3HQ8Y78KV6CN42&pd_rd_r=0d5c7537-6e2e-4e59-ab9a-e6ad50daf549&pd_rd_wg=FtKDY&ref_=pd_gw_ci_mcx_mr_hp_atf_m
  16. The Revell S&H ones are pretty shallow also, IIRC...as were the ones in the MPC Lil Red Express Dodge pickup. Sounds like the OP was looking for deeper dish wheels.
  17. There was a '62 convertible also. AMT made a kit.
  18. And IIRC, Also, I think some of these kits were subsequently released in stock-only form with none of the old custom 2n1 parts included.
  19. IIRC, the wheels looked good in pics on some of those kits, but the tires were more like motorcycle or bicycle width tires...
  20. Yes...there were stock releases after that one.
  21. Since the listing said 1/24th, I'd assume it is the more modern Italeri kit than the AMT kit.
  22. I've got a grainy video from one of my Ring cameras from the other evening...around 11pm had about a dozen deer strolling around my driveway and front yard, harvesting oak nuts from my giant oak tree...
  23. Had a couple inches of snow overnight, cold out (16F)...still snowing, lightly. I think the heavy lake effect snow will bypass me. Though I'm about 10 miles due south of Lake Erie, the heavy lake effect stuff tends to hit areas to the NE of me...
  24. Width could be an issue..I know the '66 Nova Pro Street chassis won't fit under a Camaro without a lot of cutting (the Chevy IIs/Novas are pretty flat sided while the Camaro has a lot of curvature). It will be fun to compare the Moebius Chevy II w/ the AMT '62s and '63s and 66s, and the Trumpeter '63s I have stashed away somewhere....see if there is parts swapping potential.
  25. I pre-ordered one of each. May want to order a couple more later. I'm wondering if the gasser parts could be tweaked to fit under an AMT or Revell '67 Camaro...maybe do something like the old AMT annual box art kit.
