Same goes for Jeff's IH Metro kit!I only wish there were more guys like Kevin and Jeff out there bringing long-dead resin stuff back to life!

Few things cooler than a full-bodied '70's Ford yacht!

About time!

Couldn't you just tell 'em "Hey, I'm Art freakin' Anderson here!"? If I were an exec at Moebius, that would be reason enough for me!

Nothin' more than good old Krylon Rust Tough Flat Black- my standard flat black of choice for 99% of my projects. Some take it way too seriously... but I will never be one of THOSE guys!

The more of your resin stuff I see, the more I hate being broke! Very cool build of a very cool truck.

I like that idea too, but the booklet would be a real boon for modelers who still don't have full-time 'net access, and besides, it would just be a cool thing to have.

Not sure... just some nasty old Rustoleum Semi Gloss rattle can stuff I had handy.

I keep telling myself I've got to do a 1:8 scale model one of these days... more of this and I'll be totally convinced!

Here we've got a quick simple 'time killer' build up of an old Jo-Han oldie- the '60 Plymouth Wagon kit. I added a few parts box bits to it, added the inner fenders from a scrap AMT '57 Chrysler body (the kit has no inner fenders- the engine bay is wide open!), replaced the Lego block engine with a 413 from an AMT '49 Merc, and basically just tried to build it with as little effort as possible.

Funny... I was working on another model Scout model based on a similar thought (minus the Transtar stacks, though). All I'll say is stay tuned...

Incredible job on a gorgeous car. It's hard to believe the other Studebakers being made during the original Avanti's life span were such stuffy looking things!

Art- Any hints on what the box art might be like? Are they going to include any 'bonus' goodies, like maybe a little booklet with color reference photos for the interior and engine compartment? THAT would really up the ante!

Hmmm... AMT used to sell MPC, Heller, and even Aoshima kits under their own branding... maybe they can tool up some Vector wheels and a bully bar for Revell's kit and market it in their own boxes, with the existing decal sheet!

Ah... the return of the glow in the dark model kit! And this would be, what, the 80th reissue of the Dukes Charger over the last five years or so?

Call me a fat, stupid Yankee, but I've always thought the most interesting thing about soccer are the riots that always break out after a game- no matter the outcome. Shame you had to get sucked into all of that stupidity. Yeah- I'd reccomend relocating, too- even if it's only to a differnt house or apartment complex.

The more I see these old Barris models, the more I like them. As usual, killer job, John!

Hope you can beg or borrow some 'net time while you're there... I go into modeling forum withdrawal after a few hours!

I've got every issue of HRD except the very first one- and every so often, they even cover a few models!

This kit is still on my "Wanna Build But Haven't Yet" list. Thanks for sharing!

Welcome to the hobby! Can't really add much to what's already been said, but the best advice I can give you is if you ever need help, just ask! Just doing something is the best way to learn anything, but sometimes you just need a prod in the right direction!

Sucks that the old Monte had to die to make this one possible. Still- great save, man! That's one of the coolest setups for a Revell 'Stang I've seen in a while!

Very cool!

So far, so good- you don't see too many of these slammed out in model form! You're making me want to dust off that stripped '84 kit I've got laying around.

I'll see what I can do- I'm not sure where I put the truck now. I know it's not in a Silverado or Escalade box, though, because all the Silverado and Escalade boxes I have are full of parts from other kits!
