  1. Sorry......but 99% of the buying public will only see a 1/25 scale Camaro model kit. Body issues will only be an issue to the lunatic fringe......of which I am a proud member.
  2. Nice work on both!! How did they build??? Just finished the Wedge rail and it was a difficult build....no locators and lots of mounts here somewhere.
  3. I see why those Beemax kits are so costly!!! Tons of parts!
  4. Tmaiya has never produced a 1990 Civic hatch kit. I owned a 1990 Civic and as I have models of most of my real cars I want one. Hasagawa recently came out with a 1990 body style but it is a gutted race car and a bit costly so I'll wait and see if they make a stock version. The Tamiya kit shown is the generation of Civic before the 1990 body.
  5. Nice work!!! I'm working on two 79's era F1 Tamiya kits right now! Cool and clean build of a modern F1!
  6. Nice and clean build!!!! Well done....
  7. Ditto on Gofer Racing decals.....a few sheets that may work.
  8. Fantastic work!!!! Like you I have been given some of my father in laws O trains......as I was the only model railroader in the family. You had a huge job to restore that model...well done!!
  9. Super neat and clean!!!! Nice work!
  10. One more AMT/Entex 935?? I changed the wheels and altered the stance. Fred Cady decals. A simple kit but a fun build. I have three more AMT versions to build. Thanks
  11. It looks GREAT!!! Neat and clean...my fav!!! Also my favorite era of F1 and I driver I really enjoyed watching. A great tribute.
  12. Very slick!!! great idea and craftsmanship!
  13. Where have you been hiding that!! I wish that kit was still around. It's simple but builds into a nice model. Well done!
  14. I'd be happy to buy one without a box. Why they do not offer retail sales is beyond me......sales are sales......my money is green....
  15. Salvinos added a new tree a few kits back with coil single arm front suspension. They added GM truck trailing arms but they are under scale. AMT correct arms on left, Salvinos on the right.
  16. New bumpers and grille insert are said to be included in the Petty 442.
  17. To Salvinos credit they are asking for lots of input on their kits going forward. The first OLDS 442 was a mess. Torsion bar and leaf springs were WRONG for the car modeled. BUT.......if you watch their videos of late they ask for and are getting lots of input to help make things better. One other thing they do need to get credit for is doing ALL of this in the USA.....something others said was impossible.
  18. Wonder if this car has made AMC's 'IN' all the sudden??? $24K for this? https://www.hagerty.com/articles-videos/articles/2019/06/04/big-bucks-for-this-1979-amc-amx?utm_source=SFMC&utm_medium=email&utm_content=Daily_News_Thursday_June_6
  19. It is an amazing car......a bit over the top for me as I said.....but great to see someone think of a AMC for such a project. My photo is a crappy cell pic.....but only one close to a side shot.....most of mine are 3/4!! Either way....if it's a AMC I love it.....with 2nd gen Javelins at the top.....for me!! Thanks
  20. Well they are Mavrick decals!!!!
  21. Glad you know my business..........but my daughter is a child education specialist and she and I run events that would qualify....Thanks!!
