  1. WOW.......Proof we need Javelins from 68 to 74 in kit form!! NICE work...
  2. I have one too....off ebay cheap.....but mine had a thick coating on it with huge metallic flakes....took 3 days to clean it off.
  3. I attended Toledo and the NNL every year from 1984 until 2008. Then I would miss a year now and then. It was the greatest event in model car hobby. But change is the only constant. While model cars are still a big hobby for me I also have 3 'hobby' cars and attend a lot of car shows with them. I'd like to attend NNL #40 but it will be the same day as the biggest car show in WV.....so I'l have to decide.... I do thank all those involved in THE NNL over the years. I met a LOT of folks over the years......even Tim Boyd!!! thx
  4. As a owner of a 1/1 73 Javelin....LOVE it!! Nice clean work. Wish we'd get a last Gen Javelin kit in a nodern tool.
  5. I like those kits!!! I did the K-Wop a few years ago......nice kit that builds well. I have the Peterbilt to build too.....I'll watch yours... Box stock with Tamiya paints
  6. Not a big Vette fan but for $10 that is a good kit to pick up. I got a 2nd on last visit...
  7. In flux.......I supplied some stuff for the project a while back....but with the changes going on with Moebius unknown right now.
  8. Tamiya White Primer spray........dries perfect and stable....
  9. Finally found a stack of Revell Chase Elliott Chevys. Also picked up a Flinstone car .....never seen that one on any lists.
  10. I.m going to stop at a few in my travels FRI.......
  11. Tough looking ride!! Nice work! I did the decal art for that one....nice to see it built....even a slight mod!
  12. BTW nice work so far......I have one finished and 3 more to go.....
  13. The RM 34 snapper is not bad......
  14. The MonogramIMSA Miller and Ford Motorsports Mustangs are the same car slightly altered for IMSA spec. They would be perfect.
  15. Matthews NC had a handful last week when I was there.
  16. I built the kit way back when it first came out.....do not have one now. I just recall getting a AMT 34 Ford kit and being surprised in the size difference.
  17. Cute little model.......must be about 1/29 scale. Sad too as if scale it'd be nice!
  18. Kinda wonder if it's cobbled up from junkers........and it meets a bad end!!!!
  19. the last 2 weeks Nacho's Javelin has been featured in a few scenes. Bur it's a odd mix. 73-74 body, Javelin hood, AMX grille....72 style vinyl roof......but I love it,
  20. DEMAND PRICING.......welcome to the brave new world of retail. Amazon alone changes 1 million prices a week. The kit you site, as stated, is a private seller selling on WalMart....much like Amazon. I pay no attention....
  21. Builder made 1/24 versions of the 1/8 kits by bashing parts and making decals.....
  22. NICE work!!! I have a few of those in my stash.
  23. A nice AMT ZZR spy car.........I have a bad glue bomb missing vital parts.....
  24. Nothing new Concord or Matthews NC. This dump came from Hobbico wholesale which was one of the biggest. So they have a lot of inventory. Not a reflection on who sold what...but rater how much stock a wholesaler had.
