?1968 Coronet R/T Test Shots ?
Randytheroadrunner replied to 1972coronet's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
I know there have been people begging for a '68 Coronet for years. I'd be on board for one...I can't afford 100 bucks. -
Tom, I read on ALLPAR, /6 engines were pretty much turqoise or orange, although they do mention yellow. It does say industrial or military though. My '71 was a 3/4 ton, with the 4sp/creeper, and it also had a 12 inch clutch. It also had what appeared to be a 4 inch diameter driveshaft that was 1 piece with no carrier bearing.

The Shaft?
Randytheroadrunner replied to Randytheroadrunner's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
Seems strange that pretty much everything else in the drivetrain is available but drive shafts. Hey resin casters, this seems to be a natural to add. -

GMP lost the mold for the 1970 Plymouths. They go pretty high, and the In-Violet Road Runners have been selling anywhere from 300 to 500 dollars on ebay. Yes, the market has gone down. I didn't buy my cars for investments though, I bought them because I like them. I have over 300 1/18s in my collection, and have no plans to part with them. When I die my wife can have a big yard sale.

Sorry about the pun on the topic title. Does anyone make a driveshaft kit? I've been searching high and low, and I've found trannies and rear ends, transfer cases galore, but no drive shaft kits. I've got several builds going now and I need a few driveshafts.

'70 Road Runner Pieces

I'd love to see somebody make a resin '70 Road Runner off the old Johan. -
Missing Link Website SHOULD be repaired

When I click on Parts, there is nothing there, just some stuff about international orders. -
Jeep "Honcho"
Randytheroadrunner replied to MsDano85gt's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Weren't they really classed as J-10s and J-20s? -
As an old senior citizen that has been building models since the fifties, I can only say I have not been as excited about model kits for a long time. Now comes Moebius and it's 1969 again! I can't wait until these kits are released. I can only hope there will be 4 Wheel Drive versions and Step Side versions in the wings. This all gives me hope, and something to look forward to again. Now if only they would make a late '60s, early '70s Dodge Pickup that I can afford. Sure there's resin, but a retired person can't afford $100+ for a Dodge Pickup.

Race Motor Replicas
Randytheroadrunner replied to 502's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
I noticed his website has no prices, and hasn't been updated for a long time. How do you get a price list from him? Isn't this the guy that used to run a hobby shop in Meadville PA? If it is, I've met him. -
I'm thinking about putting a resin Dodge Bighorn cab on mine.

Did anyone else grab one of these Rollbacks from JADA? I got the black one, and it scales out nice with 1/25th models.

Good News from the Diecast 1/18 industry ... Sort of

That's one of the best NASCAR builds I have seen in my 60+ years!

The New NASCAR
Randytheroadrunner replied to Patrick2005's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I think they should go back to 1960s style cars. The sheet metal guys can make anything. We used to call NASCAR Stock Car Racing, now it's Bubble Car Racing. I watched my last race over 10 years ago, it just got boring.
