  1. I would suggest going through whoever you bought it from. I don't find a web site but they do have an official Ebay page. Perhaps going there and messaging them from there explaining your issue.
  2. I know last year I mentioned that they only had a 3 speed if you wanted manual. I did dig deeper and found the AMA list for Buick. They had the three speed only as the manual. If you knew someone at Flint or really great friends with the dealer like my grandfather you could order almost anything. So it is possible that a Wildcat could exist out there with a factory four speed. My grandfather had a 69 Buick Skylark Custom that was ordered with all the GS bits underneath but no GS call outs or trim on the body. The dealer put an Olds 442 style fresh air intake mounted under the bumpers. This thing was a sleeper.
  3. That is some nice stuff there. Glad you got them.
  4. I have a test shot of a round window Taurus NASCAR racer. Accurate Miniatures was thinking about releasing this but never did. Could someone like Salvino's JR acquire the tooling for this model and add it to their line up? It would be a good addition to their inventory in my opinion. I'm not building it because decals would be difficult to locate for it. Moldings look very nice to my eye. Very detailed. Not selling this. I'm giving it to a friend who builds racing cars.
  5. Ollies will be opening stores in Fond Du lac Wisconsin and West Bend Wisconsin. The West Bend store will open on the 12th of February. I do not know when the FDL store is opening yet.
  6. I do too. But I am an American living in Wisconsin (sorta Canada Lite) But I do have a thing for Canadian cars. So unique.
  7. I like all three cars they are working on. The Chevy because I like station wagons, and also two of my fave MOPARS.
  8. Interesting techniques in regard to a windex bottle spray.
  9. STS decals could make a custom set for you. They did my chrome FARGO decals for my cab over Dodge truck conversion to my Canadian version. Excellent decals
  10. Nice. I owned a 73 Eldo rag top when I lived in Santa Barbara. Great cruising car. I am going to have to make a 73 now that I have seen yours.
  11. Nice way to overcome the problems to make this car.
  12. I can't add any more to the comments section except I really am amazed at your build quality.
  13. Maybe Flinstone has something. You could modify this Flintstone figure.
  14. I don't know if that body color/interior color combo was ever offered, but I like it.
  15. Beautiful limousine. Where did the Cadillac crest decals come from if I may ask?
  16. Super sharp. Great color
  17. Oh yes. A 3D print of the basic truck and grille choices for various year models plus photo-etch for name plates from Kaiser to AMC
  18. The 48 Caddy had a flat head engine V8, 49 was the first year for a OHV V8
  19. There is so much wrong with that body. A member of our club did this kit and as I recall, he had to section a bit from the body, correct the hood and section the grille too. Lots of work..
  20. It seems a 42 version would just need the grille done in resin or 3D. Any other small bits could be just fabricated by the modeller. 41 and earlier I think would need a front clip and a hood because the fenders are different.
  21. GTO wagon would be my choice. There is a misty green one in my area.
  22. Nicely detailed out of the box. I wonder how difficult it would be to open the hood and put an engine in there?
  23. Love the looks of the Mitsu Galant. might have to find one.
