Monogram 34 Ford's over the years
Dave Van replied to junkyardjeff's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I like the Monogram 34 Ford kit warts and all!!!!! I do wish they would back date it to the Green coupe version. In a dream world they'd retool it back to the 1960's era kit!!!!! I can dream!!!! -

AMT '75-'76 NASCAR Matador question
Dave Van replied to Monty's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
This issue of the Matador NASCAR kits had the stock grille on the chrome tree. All other versions DID NOT. Owning a reall 74 Matador coupe I have every model Matador I know was made including some 1/64 die cast that had a short run. BTW: These cars were and are ahead of their time. Mine has the 304 / 727 combo, big disk brakes and fat sway bars front and rear. The car still drives much like a modern car considering it's FIFTY years old!!! The 304 is about as good as the 302 Ford....and very much alike with lots of FORD parts. All from the factory. Thx -

Coming Soon from Atomic City's JoHan line of new kits
Dave Van replied to thatz4u's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Cloning a kit just removes some work. Work = $$$$. I lent my Monorgram Dragon Wagon to RM to clone. It took out a step for the tool maker and saved cash and made the project viable. I did the same for another unnamed stock production car with Moebius. That project was killed mid way when Pegasus bought Moebius and I hope it can be shopped to someone. Even partial kits are cloned. Trumpeter Nova parts made it into others kits. Cloning is just another option. Thx -
How long was this kit in production.
