Oh the irony, instead of giving it smooth skin, it gave it rough skin!

Haha if you're serious, there are many places that still sell it. If your lhs doesn't have it, check out places such as Micheals and Hobby Lobby (where I got mine from). Otherwise, there are several sites online you can look at.

Better, and the weathering looks great! Only thing I could see an error in is the driver's seat. If the vehicle got muddy while driving, the driver's seat would be clean where a person would be sitting (top of the cushion, and front of the seatback). Also, the steering wheel rim would probably be clean, or at least the mud smudged from moving the hands around. Oh, and the inner wheel wells are too clean. They would have a bunch of dirt and grime in them from the tires spinning.

Dood, where's the pictures?

They reissued it again. I got mine from Hobbylinc.com, so I would suggest checking out there first.

Chrome tree looks great (including incorrect 5-bolt wheels), though most of the parts will be stripped anyways. Extended cab: And of course the rest of the parts trees: I don't have the past issue of the F-250, only the F-350 dually, but I assume the kit is the same as the past issue (minus the decals I would believe). I do like that they've included decals for the emblems and driving light covers, since I hated painting them when I was younger. Luckily though they still have the raised script, so I can save the decals for another kit. I love the detail and number of parts they have in this kit, and since it's a truck, the customization options are endless! By the way, I bought this from Hobbylinc, so I don't know what other sites/stores are selling it (though I assume many will be).

Just received it in the mail today.

Yes you heard right, Monogram has finally decided to once again offer the 1/24th scale Ford F-250 kit, and I was on the ball to get one (I actually preordered back in January! ) Here's the box art, which I rather enjoy. One standard instruction booklet: One very interesting set of decals (love the "for sale" signs and rear window vinyl!) Parts in the box: Clear parts look great: All five tires, which unfortunately are plain (unlike the past issues'). And of course the taillights.

Thing is though, people didn't like the supercharged V6 in the Cougar XR-7, which is why they switched to the V8. If they built the concept to feature the V6 again, it wouldn't make sense. If they were to build a concept on an existing model, they would most likely use the same engine, or something new, not something they already used and dropped due to customer demand.

If it's from a DVD, it's simple. Put the DVD in your computer, play DVD, and hit "Prnt Scrn" when the screen comes up that you want captured. Go to Paint, hit Ctrl+V. Using the crop tool, select the image you want, cut it (ctrl+C), and open up a new page. Hit ctrl+v, and save.

Unless the link has a thousand pictures.

^Yeah that was posted back in post #22 (or rather the link to it).

Yeah, Cintegra i.e. Civic-Integra. I was saying Cintegra IS, since it is part Civic, part Integra, and part Lexus IS.

Wouldn't it be a Cintegra IS, since the rear taillights look like the ones on the original Lexus IS?

Technically, if this were to be a 1992 model, then it would have the 4.9L V8 used in the regular XR-7 coupe. The 1990 version, which was posted above, would have the supercharged V6 since they used it in the XR-7 until 1991. It looks awesome otherwise, and it's too bad they didn't put it into production!

You were talking about the body style, not the front end.

As well as every other Vega fastback.

It appears that they didn't sell too many, since they didn't even feature it in their 1978 Brochure!

On Wikipedia I found this: So yeah, it was introduced as the base Monza model. So technically Jimmy is right in calling it a Monza, and I was right on the Monza rear end since it was still used on the higher up fastback models. Of course, we were also right in that it technically is a Vega with a Monza front end.

Nope, it's a Vega with a Monza front end. Vega: Notice, no wrap-around taillight. Monza: Note wrap-around taillight and longer side window.

Yup, same 3.8 V6 as the pre-91 Cougar XR-7. However the post-91 XR-7 used the 5.0 V8 (well...4.9 technically).

Zing!

Actually it appears to be the 5.0 V8. 1991-up XR-7s used the 5.0 V8 (which this kit is), and 1990-earlier used the supercharged V6.

Depending on model, there is either a knob or button where you can change the mode. I would assume that there is an AUTO mode which is what you would want it set on.
