  1. I've seen those Grumman postal trucks everywhere I've lived the last 25+ years...SE Michigan, Colorado, Arizona, NE Ohio... been in use for decades, they tend to catch fire I've read. Greenlight does some diecast ones in 1/64th, not sure if they have any larger scale ones. What do they use in NYC?
  2. I stream it on Amazon Prime.
  3. The box art illustration for the '66 seems to sit so low as to be indistinguishable from the 2wd version. Googling '66 Ford F100 4x4 turns up images of ones that sit higher, some modified certainly.
  4. Yeah, good show..quite the cliffhanger in that last episode. I suspect all the major characters survived, but with injuries.
  5. Interesting custom bodykit also..never seen one like that.
  6. Sharp..like the color.
  7. I got the October issue of SA yesterday, the final issue...it's a good one. Looks like the 2020 Contest Cars issue isn't too far off, my pre-order got charged on the 25th.
  8. Never seen one of those Alfas, but I do have the Matchbox version.
  9. I have a few of them in my stash, mostly 911s and Ferraris...would like to see some of the 356s reissued..
  10. 200SX in North America, Silvia in Japan. 75-79.
  11. The Model Roundup listing says molded in green. The last issue of the '65 (2013) was molded in white..
  12. I assume it's going to be green because the original JGG kit was molded in green..
  13. Cool. Love those 70s bigs
  14. Yes, Lincoln Mark IV, specifically a '72 because of the small bumpers that fit tight at the corners. ''73 went to a big federal bumper up front, added a rub strip to the rear bumper, and '74-76 had big bumpers in the rear also.
  15. Got an email from Model Roundup today that said they would ship in week to 10 days from now.
  16. Very nice. Speaking of Howmet, I was driving last evening near downtown Cleveland and spotted a warehouse signed as 'Howmet Aerospace'...related, company, I think...
  17. Scalemates has a lot of inaccuracies---human error...remember, it's content is user-generated, not professionally curated.
  18. Interesting...I remember a 1:1 car wax/polish called The Treatment...my Dad and Mom used it on their cars in the 80s. Orange bottle.
  19. Sharp...looks like a diecast w/ those door openings? White Box makes a 1/24th diecast.
  20. Oddly none of those have ever been reissued AFAIK. I think the ‘65 GTO was the only one I had.
  21. I also remember in the late 70s-early 80s a 1/32nd '65 GTO, '65 Mustang 2+2, '65 Barracuda, '69 Charger, '70 Trans Am and others.. have some of the Monogram Snap-Tites from childhood. Some have been reissued many, many times like the '70 Mustang and '69 Camaro.
  22. I recall Revell of Germany doing something on their website maybe five years ago. Pictures of lots of potential kit subjects and people could vote on them. Don’t recall Revell doing something like that in the US.
  23. The Buick Road Wheels didn’t have trim rings, I think.
  24. My family farm phone number is still the same after 50+ years, but the area code changed maybe 25 years ago. I’ve had the same cell number for close to 20 years now, even though I’ve lived in 3 states over that time.
