And 80% of it is all new tooling......and unlike a 29 Ford kit......multi versions down the road are a lot tougher. (ie spreading tooling cost over 10 years)

Well........this is not a 'one piece chassis, 3 part interior and a body' kit These snappers will have multi part chassis, engine and pretty complete roll cage. True.....some parts may be 'grouped' and some simplified.......but the label Revell has started 'Snap Tite MAX' should tell you they are not just aimed at kids. If these are as good as promised I'll build these over the 'glue' version.......stock cars are just bodies after 3 or 4 builds.

Per Revell everything depends on sales......want a Toyota??? BUY......don'y say you are gonna pass on the Chevy and Ford then complain no Toyota......just sayin........first two go well........NASCAR wants to keep Toy happy......what do you think will happen?

EXCELLENT!

Crown Vic a simplified kit that builds well and looks good. (no motor etc) 64 Dodge is very nice....much like a modern Revell or AMT kit.

As stated....no one answer. Best to ask about a specific kit.....

Well........I got a little upset when PETERSON museum itself had a American Graffiti display of all the 'star' cars and each had a Barris crest decal applied and some noise about Barris being involved.......which is incorrect as far as I have discovered. Still.......he did do a lot of work. RIP PS there was a thread on this topic

Decent show tonight. I'd rank it at 3rd of the 3 shown so far.....but still decent.

Nice clean builds in great colors!! Plus great seeing another Flock car....I did the decal art for that one. Ms flock was a neighbor of mine when I lived in Charlotte.

And Matt gets a 2 week vacation! But remember kids....do as I say....not as I DO!!!!

That kit came from an era when tooling was being cut up and modified to eliminate anything they could.......including positive locators. finished well considering what you started with.

NOW BACK UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have the kit myself........thought a 'work' version would be cool.......so I'll sit back and watch!! Good start!

NICE build........but I may take all my Matt cars out to the driveway Monday and show them a mighty hammer.......I'll feel better then.

NICE PROGRESS!!!

As a owner of a few rarer collector cars.....I don't want to see GOOD cars cut up for a short lived movie carrer. But everything I read on the building of the Mad Max vehicles said they used cars that for the majority were junk. They WANTED junk as it was pre-weathered and dented!!! The Chevys for the War wagon were parts no one would try and save........I am sure some salvageable parts were used......and entire cars like 'Elvis; were complete road worthy cars that owners choose to sell.......but the vast majority was stuff I'd not tackle myself.

Nice work!!!! I own a 1/1 so just seeing someone build 'em.....COOL

I don't think there is a type glue NOT on my work desk. CA, epoxy, Testors tube glue, Micro Weld, white glue, Gorilla Glue etc etc.....can't have too many!!!

Very nice work!!! I picked up the kit at Toledo. I spent WAY too much time on a real Trail 70 back in the day. Loved that bike. Buddy had a 60 and we rode all the time in mountains of WV.

I was gonna do the R/W/B paint.....but I may have changed my mind. Not 100% sure now

painted white roof........or it would be really rusty!

she looks rough but it's a classic old lady car 34K miles i'm 2nd owner.

Just watch the film 'idiocracy' it is set some 100+ years in the future.....but will happen, is happening, much sooner.....sometimes it's good to be old.

I own a 1/1 scale 74 coupe.......looks good so far!!

Well since you asked so nice............ I am working on a Giga too.....along with a War Wagon. Both stalled due to my Dad passing expectantly and me caring for the estate. BUT......I hope this winter to get back in full swing, Does this count?????? My own build and design
