  1. One of the best things to happen in the hobby of building model cars is the digital camera and sites like this to share this solitary hobby .
  2. You did a great job !! At first look I knew what this truck was- "Shoot the Moon"
  3. Tractors with fender skirts like that are made for orchard work, so the tree limbs don't get tangled in the tires.
  4. Google : Brad Masterson - 1951 Chevy then maybe dig a little deeper on the subject to find pictures or videos of how/when Brad Masterson and Bill Hines built it.
  5. wonder if the windshield and windshield frame from the AMT Deora would work for the rear window hatch ?
  6. Good Stuff !!!
  7. Anyone remember when Kmart had their own line of model glue ? Back when Kmart had the buying power...I'd guess it was made and packaged by Testors (?) It was right next to the good stuff on the rack , usually a few cents cheaper , we had an S.S. Kresge near our house that I rode my bicycle too back then and being the parent company of Kmart they carried this brand also
  8. Good for you , Joe !!! Glad things are looking up for you and your son . Would love to see a picture of the cat on a leash too......
  9. If someone has both the MPC 1968 and 1969 Bonnevilles near mint in the box...and was thinking about putting them on ebay , what do you think would be fair market value ?
  10. My local Hobby Lobby is great ! when they had model kits on sale-they did over ride the register to the full price so I could use the %40 coupon instead . was there yesterday and got the Revell '68 Chevelle -wanted to get the Revell '69 Mustang kit too but the slot was empty , the nice lady filled out a 'rain check' slip and will call some time next week when it comes in-Yea Hobby Lobby !
  11. Just finished the soap box racer from the AMT 1968 el Camino
  12. A few of the cars and trucks pictured look like they might be made by a company called-Wannatoy, typical dime store toy cars trucks , air planes and tanks from the 50s and 60s
  13. I would be interested in a vehicle like this , based on the growing reputation Mahindra has building tractors and other equipment . One of the things that caught my eye right away and reminded me of what my dad told me about Jeeps- the Jeeps that Ford build during WWII had 9 slot grills-Willys had 7 slots and this buggy is sporting a 5 slot grill.
