Yeah, it's in really nice shape except for the pillar. He was asking $75. I got it in trade for 5 relatively run of the mill kits that I could get for $15 each pretty much anywhere. He was happy and I was very happy! Later-

Thanks for the info Chris. I'll keep it in mind. I have a set of those caps already that I wasn't planning anything for. I'll have to put them in with the Olds so I don't forget. Later-

Advice on straightening a warped promo
Modlbldr replied to Modlbldr's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Thanks guys. Actually, I have removed the bumpers and taillights and I am using them as trade fodder for a set of bumpers that I needed. I still have the wheels and tires, full interior,chassis and convertible boot to use for trade So, it all works out. Later- -
Advice on straightening a warped promo
Modlbldr replied to Modlbldr's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Thanks guys. I wasn't too heart broke about the warp. I got the thing for $15. I'd pay that much for lunch without thinking about what I ate ever again, although the sandwich and beer I had yesterday for the same price was quite memorable. At least this way if it doesn't work I have the remainder of the parts to help someone else out with. Later- -
I picked this up yesterday for a good price and am looking to try to get a bit of the warp out of it. http:// http:// http:// http:// I thought about disassembling it, attaching the body to a metal plate I have and dipping it in or pouring hot water over it. Anybody have any success straightening one and how did you do it? Later-

Did a little trade yesterday and got these from a great guy. http:// The 63 Meteor is only missing the taillights. If anyone knows where I can score some... The 63 Starfire is complete with the exception of tires and wheels. The 55 is a body and many parts and pieces from the kit and a Nomad (enough to build a full car). The 39 is only missing tires and wheels. The 62 Tbird is CLEAN and the Charger is sealed inside. Then I picked these two up from a thrift store for $6 for the pair. http:// Then I got this 60 Bonnie at an antique store for a great price because it was warped. Got to figure out how, if possible, to straighten it a bit. http:// http:// http:// If I can't get it straightened it won't be the end of the world. Nice day yesterday. Later-

Need to find these wheels
Modlbldr replied to Modlbldr's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Looks like I may have found my answer. I came across the wheels from one of my Revell 2013 (?) Boss 302's and was going to make them work but they were a bit small at 1/25th. These in 1/24th may work better. Now to find one of those. Thanks Casey. Later- -

I am looking to find a source for these wheels. They look similar to a Watanabe but have 10 spokes. All of the Watanabe I've found have 8. I'd like them in a 17 to 19 inch wheel. Perhaps Shapeways has them but I've never looked there. Any help is appreciated. I need them for a build off I am in. http:// Later-

Picked up another load yesterday from the same lady as before. http:// http:// http:// http:// http:// http:// http:// She still has a handful of builtups that she wouldn't let me take because they were dirty and she was "going to clean them." I tried to convince her not to because she may break them and lose parts but she wouldn't hear it. Later-

Bring Out Your Dead... Long Stalled Models
Modlbldr replied to Tom Geiger's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Wow! Hard to believe I commented on this post back on page 1 or 2 saying that I would post some of my MANY stalled projects but (wait for it...…) I stalled out and never posted. I have one that I started back when I first got married in 89. I recently got it out, painted it and completed the interior before stalling out again. I'm so pathetic...…... Later- -

Nice finds. I like those 1/32 cars. I had a couple of the 55 Nomads and I have a 59 Caddy and a 63 TBird. I've been looking for one of the 59 Impalas. Want to get rid of it? Later-

So, I picked up quite a few complete kits and a couple boxes of built ups this weekend for dirt cheap. The box of built ups I paid $5 for. Finally got a chance to dig through the stuff and came across a couple of interesting things. http:// This Camaro I am uncertain of the issue year and rarity. Any answers? http:// http:// http:// Then I came across this and got pretty excited! http:// http:// Pretty nice score, I thought. Later-
