  1. Some paint on chassis. Sprint car wing. Headers are just sitting, will be much different. Thanks for looking
  2. The powers that be want everyone to move to a Facebook version of the site. I do not do Facejunk so a huge loss. Been there from the start. SAD
  3. I did one with a chop but looking at the HW it looks stock.....and the model was to squat to me. Thx!!
  4. Front of frame started. Good to be at the bench again!! Going for a cross Steam Punk and Mad Max! thx
  5. Thanks to the entire crew.......nuff said!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  6. Day one of Rat Rig. Inspiration is in background. Will not be exact....just inspiration! Revell snap Pete, Mobius rear tires, S'Cool bus engines and front wheel/tires. Thanks
  7. I see R2 is reissue the Chrysler Kit car Dodge Dart kit in a green paint scheme......................
  8. I am not exactly known as a drag race model builder. But I want to build a Monogram BADMAN and it needed someone to race. I wanted something different and I may have chosen the wrong kit to modify. But here it is. Monogram 53 Chevy kit with a lot of parts box stuff.....some of which I have no idea where it came from. Cut the hood hole wrong so she runs w/o it!! Tamiya paint, Gofers and my own decals. Tinted the window orange. Thanks for looking.
  9. Atlantis kits have been in Joann's for about a year now. Wife goes there often so I check kits in store. 40-50% of is the norm if you have coupon. Also they offer free shipping at times on online orders.
  10. GOOD....I got one mail order and want another now!!! Thx
  11. No inside info here just lots of retail exsperence. R2/AMT sold out the first run of the 60 Ford before they landed. The 2nd run is also about sold out. As long as the kit is this hot there is no need to sell to any mass merchandiser like HL. Once sales cool some R2 may offer the kit at the discount MM need. Until then no MM sales. Just IMHO ONLY!
  12. Ordered the Swamp Rat and Mongoose RE today......also Cave Bear and Sabre!!! Thx Atlantis
  13. Nice clean work! I am building this kit now as a scale version of my real GT350R tribute. Hope it comes out as well.
  14. Cool!! I have a 1/20 version on my stash. I'll be watching
  15. Hope the KY Long Rifle has the custom parts included ?
  16. Penngwen would still be in the kit biz but after my 3rd caster quit I couldn't find another. Good luck hope you can.
  17. Well done! That era is my favorite, I've built the 6 wheeler 3 times!
  18. W/O an inventory list and condition....that is a good price for the seller.
  19. The Monogram Petty version has them. Keith Marks had them at one time check with him.
  20. Plastic kits will soon be much like Lionel Trains of the 1990's. Pre War Lionel was gold in the 60'-80's. Then a lot of collectors started passing away and he market became flooded with nice Lionel. Prices drop like a rock. In the 70's you might get $2000 for mint empty Lionel boxes. Suddenly they were just empty boxed. I have a huge collection, when time comes it will go out as a collection.
  21. Some high dollar stuff.....interesting to see what it goes for.
  22. THANKS!!! Nice to get a stock DMC......
  23. I have the XLR R/C toy.......BUT I was told there may have been a CTS Coupe in this same series. I am trying to track down any info as I bought a 1/1 CTS and want a model....or even a body! Thanks
