Yhose little fomula cars are cool. We had a friend in the late 70's, ran FV and built his own cars. They were not as slick as the factory cars but he ran well and had fun. As driver my world was limited to Solo 1 & II.....me around 1979 at Charlotte Motor Speedway.....still have the car!!! PS: had not thought about SARC in years!!!

THE BEST item I have gotten at HF is two folding chairs I use at car shows. They are NOT those butterfly type that just spread out....more like a director chair with a side table!!! Comfortable, stable and the table is handy. I paid $20 with a coupon. Well worth it. As far as tools I have almost 100% Craftsman but I am not as loyal as I once was. I do have a 6 foot long low roll around tool box that has worked very well. Just know what you are buying.

My So Cal buddy is going....so still on. Maybe check the museum site??? BTW I grew up in Whittier.....Mulberry elementary......I still visit once a year.

I have a line of decals....PM or e-mail for info. thx

Bugeye!!!! What region and years did you run??? We ran SE region late 70's up into late 90's. From SSC to GT-1. Indycals does custom printing and his decals are very nice. What decals do you need?? just the stripe and roundels/numbers?? I may be able to help with art.....but can't print white....so Indycals would need to print them. LMK photo at Roebling Road??

I make Buck Baker #87 like those if you need them.

Which Atlantis kits each store gets is controlled by a buyer at the HL home office. Each store does not order kits. This from someone at Atlantis.

Photobucket sucks.......?

I used some years ago and it was not up to Tamiiya standards.......gun shy here too.

Because of the pad printed windows I'll get one!!

Interesting project...

Very cool!!!

You can see the hood better here ....about the only thing Renault about it!!!

Well.......I just ordered a Taxi kit. $45 delivered. How I will build it yet to be seen!!!! This is a Revell Renault based stake bed....Hmmmm.....

Well said........true it's not paying a tool maker for a all new tool.....but someone had to buy it (tooling) more recently.

Right as the Bankruptcy was filed I was talking to RM about these kits. I was asked to send more info, boxes etc. Days later the fall came and that went away. I hope Atlantis does have these curbside kits.

Side note: Indycals just released a MOMO set of decals for this kit. Very nice!

Something else.......the Revell Renault showrods are really 1/32 scale....body wise. If you have a Pyro 1/32 Renault kit the 'hood' in it is almost the EXACT same size as the Revell. So I'm not sure how big the ICM 1/24 kit will be.

The Revell Moon Mixer uses the Revell 1/96 scale Apollo kit for the mixer.....not real hard to find.

I am die hard Ford fan. When I bought a 1946 Ford 2 door coupe that was turn key finished and had a SBC 350/350 under the hood I had no thoughts of changing things. It runs like a top and when the hood is closed no one knows. All I know is it's a fun car....my bottom line.

IIRC you are correct. I worked on the Model King 64 Ford and seemed to recall there were two tools and the modified is still intact....MK reissued both......if my mind is working right.

Just nice to be here........

First......Thanks Bruce for posting this....I wanted one but good to see inside. Tires can be painted with Tamiya spray flats. I use white primer to make wide whites. I'd test it...but gray primer might work well. PS.....anyone think about a hot rod version like Revell Meter Cheater???

Very good!!! I say inspired as I was to lazy to chop top....

Things can be done with it......... Inspired by a goth girl's ride. Funny Monogram didn't do anything with it....I like the kit.
