  1. Thanks people! I will check in with Model Empire when I get into Milwaukee sometime this week. Gotta have it.
  2. Have not seen the 1/32nd scale Ranchero at the LHS yet. Any word on it? I have the reissued Avanti, an original T-Bird in the queue. Would like to see their Mustang fast back and the Indy car come out too.
  3. Oh sure, bring that up will ya? After I just spent stupid money for an unmolested 65. LOL
  4. Imma thinkin a Buick V6 turbo in mine.
  5. I had no issues with my Cosmo decals, but I could tell they were stubborn coming off the paper. I decided not to chance the yellow side stripe and just painted that one on.
  6. I owned one of those sorry diesels. Olds Delta 88 sedan, not sure of the year anymore. The previous owner buggered the dash so bad you had to go through a Batman style routine to start it. It did not work the normal way through the ignition switch. Turn key to ON position, flip glow plug toggle, flip fuel pump toggle, turn key to crank engine, and when started flip glow plug toggle to OFF. Woe be to the person who would forget that sequence. Of course no one could steal the car, and believe me they tried.
  7. And now we are getting a stock roof height 48 Ford coupe from Revell in a Police type issue.
  8. BMWs, especially the ones I encounter on the I-94 between Chicago and Milwaukee
  9. My step daughter used to have a xB. I drove it a couple of times...it was OK but not as cool as my HHR Panel
  10. I think that referred to drag class and not the brand or model.
  11. I got a 53 Chevy kit and a sedan delivery body and 1954 grille. Also got 1965 Monaco kit unmolested condition. I got the Round2 Honda Trail 70 kit and the Joey Logano Fusion NASCAR snapper and a proper exhaust pipe for it. The kit has pipes coming out both sides which they haven't done in ages. I neeed the chrome inset for the tail light and two of the stock wheel covers for the Monaco
  12. I was never one to get rid of the old style anything unless it broke down. I had the biggest CRT type TV you could get which was about 42 inches I believe. The GF's daughter wanted a 60 inch flat screen and gave us their two year old 55 inch flat LED TV. Wow, what a difference. The old CRT TV serves as the outdoor kennel for a St. Bernard dog. Remove guts, install wooden floor, place outside. No, I do not own the dog, it's a neighbor's dog.
  13. Too keep that javvie company, put Wisconsin State Patrol decals on it. It's already the correct dark blue metallic WSP cars are. You would have to paint the grille flat black...but I'd keep it chrome.
  14. They would if the upgraded engine choice is a good one. Ford has a pretty sharp V6 now, so does Chrysler.
  15. What is the illuminated numbers in the Vette quarter windows.
  16. Yes they are. They had thought of a GM V8 but that engine would throw the balance off. One of Ford's V6s would be better.
  17. Hope they can sort out engine/emission issues.
  18. Just got the Moebius kit of the 61 Pontiac and a couple spray cans of paint for my Indy car project...yellow and white for the Mac Tools Buick Lola
  19. Indeed Art, when you figure in design, packaging, manufacturing...the styrene's content of petro product cost is quite miniscule. When oil comes down, other factors do not.
  20. Seen the UHaul. Kinda goes by quick.
  21. That's my plan. easier I think than the IMC kit
