    FYI....the decals they bought from me that require a white undercoat.......they skip that step.....

    I have for too many years worked in the hobby business......I helped run two different hobby shops over the years.....back in the 1980's I bought kits at cost....which was $3.35 each!!! I bought a few! Then in the old days we would deal with a number of wholesalers......one offered us all his discontinued kits at $1 each if we took all 500.....we did! Still today I freelance work in the biz......and get items that way......... I won't talk about the 2K kits I sold a hobby dealer in 2017........

    Nice neat work on a cool car........ The history of that kit is interesting. The design guy at Monogram was a Mustang owner and Ford came to Monogram and basically funded this kit. I have a few in the stash...need to build one!!!!

    Like leaving out the needed white print in many decals????

    I bought a case of each of the Revell parts packs, 6 in a case, for about a buck per pack.....so not hot sellers......but they are very 1960's era themed and a little out of date.

    Great start!!!

    And by some strange chance he/she sells copies of all the decals I sold them years ago........strange world.... I made a run of those....I will have to check and see if I have any left.....

    Thanks for the info........with 5K kits in my stash......I'll wait and see if Revell here brings it in.....even $45, if that is the new MSRP, is outside my zone. Thx

    Just killed a few collectors investment portfolios!!! I love it!

    I got info from Model King yesterday the kit is being run now. Shipment is still TBA but is closer now than ever....NO Cancellation.........and if you want one....ORDER IT....this is hot!

    Are we going to get this kit stateside???? Imports are north of $50 plus shipping.

    I understand some do not like the Tom Daniel showrods.....but Tom is willing to work with Atlantis at a fair exchange. IF they have some fords or GM molds it will take a expensive license to run them. Right now Atlantis is trying to get some products out without big license fees.
  13. Dave Van
    Tom Daniel reports that Atlantis has Unreal Roller tooling.....just a FYI but read between the lines!!!!
  14. Dave Van
    I like that!!!

    Nice work!! Wish someone would reissue!
  16. Dave Van
    Good start.......It was a IMC kit and thus a little tough build. The molds are now listed as MIA and we may never see it again.......you got a good deal....I have been looking for one myself.
  17. Dave Van
    LOVE IT!!!! A great build of a car from my favorite era. I have a Iritani Shadow I need to build!

    Gofer Racing Decals has a Gasser sheet with classes in two colors. Available direct and from dealers like Model Round-up.

    Strange as it sounds the JoHan 71 Mustang funny car hood is an exact fit. You have to trim it from the body but is great once cleaned up.
  20. Dave Van
    Super nice clean build!!
  21. Dave Van
    Very slick build. Perfect stance and clean build.
  22. Dave Van
    GREAT WORK!!!!! I love those turbine era trucks.....seems everyone had one!
  23. Dave Van
    Cool idea......outside the box!
  24. Dave Van
    Nice work!

    I like what you created with the updated body. The vintage MPC Vega kit is a decent model of the pavement modifieds of the 1970's through mid 1980's. I saw these cars run a Metrolina in Charlotte and Bowman Gray. The AMT Toby Tobias models are more like the dirt mods.
