So van we delete old attachments??? Mine is 2x full but some are from the last decade!!

Fixed my inbox....sory about that........ My St. James decals FYI

I make a few decals for the IMSA and Trans Am version. PM me if you need a catalog. SUPER nice build on that Folgers car. Nice and clean build! Not sure how I missed it.

But we need a 2025 Dark Horse Cup body first. I like it!!!

COOL MATADOR!

COOL STUFF! I like the Pacer Panel and Rebel in copper. Here are my wo....down from 4!! 1973 Javelin. I am 2nd owner, bought in 1993. 1974 Matador coupe. Bought in 1994 from the lady that ordered it. She gave me all the paperwork.

The only thing I saw was Atlantis kits.....Problem is everyday in the past you could get 40% off with coupon. NOW kits are 20% off, no coupon permitted. SO........

STS Decals are nice. Do not expect cheap, but super nice work.

Would need to be from scratch. I have a G 1/24 scale short baggage car body to start ...add to my 10,000 projects!

Very cool.......that would be cool to build in 1/24 (G)

The Revell tri fives were a BEAR to build from day one.......why the surprise???

Roanoke VA had the old MPC trikes, mixer, miller trailer and TWO Star Trek shuttles.......the shuttles came home with me....and a Taco Trike. I has 10% too so a deal!

The Monogram 83-85 Bird is 100% correct as is!!!!! Problem is it is a model of a protorype TB built by Banjo Matthews for the movie 'Stroker Ace'. This is the deal......told to me by Bob Johnson himself. Ford wanted a kit of the 83 Bird available for it's debut in the Daytona 500 AND to be the Star Car in the film. So some drawings and a few stampings were sent to Banjo along with Bob to make drawings for the kit. As we all the the real race car was different than the kit. A decent model can be made from it.....not 1005 correct. For me I add a tri-angle of sheet stock to the rear of the wheel opening. Remove the rubber rub strip on the door. Headlight doors need fixed but I never do. My version.....Hope you continue on yours!

They should have done the 2025 Camaro kit!!!! ...........Oh wait....never mind......😁

Salvino's does things different than many from what I can tell. I have no inside info but I bet they pay up front and are firm about the tooling being exported when finished. Stuff cloned in China with production there is MUCH cheaper. When I was doing a lot of work with RC2 and Model King we had whole bodies cloned and no one thought twice as the tooling was cheap. The tooling and production was bid as one.......

I had friends at RM at the time.....All I ever got was 'tooling became unusable.....

The issue with TJ, Dragon and Rommel's is they were cloned in China. Tooling made in China STAYS in China. Not saying it will never happen......just most likely not. There is a book 'China: the 100 year marathon' that talks about this stuff. Bottom line is if you try and get your tooling out of China it gets lost or damaged beyond use. LOTS of stories out there about this. Thx

PS: Since Atlantis got Red Baron.....wonder if they got the 1/12 version too.......I'd take one!

Revell Monogram burned the bridge to Tom Daniels so they may as well sell all the TD tooling to Atlantis. Anyone up for a Mean Maverick kit??

Looking forward!!!!!!!!!!!

A single regular kit sent from NJ to WV. Sent to Indianapolis IN where it has 'ARRIVED' and 'DEPARTED' every day for four days now and still sits there today. Agreed a First world issue. Who thinks that 'good logistics' Is to ship a box from NJ to Indiana, to sit, and then travel again the same distance in the opposite direction? Just which Monkey is in charge? FYI the Postmaster of the USPS resigned last week after notified DOGE was coming. Telling

A LOT of work, very well done!!

Nice detail, clean work!

They had to be driven in manual mode to get any power. I enjoyed the drive as if I needed HP I pulled the Mustang out.

Not my cup of tea.....but to each his own!!!!! I DO love SMART cars....owned two at one time. Fun cars but they cost the same to fix as a Mercedes Benz as most parts are sourced from MB. Car was nice but grandkids came along and hard to have a 2 seater with babies.... Like to find one..... Our two on a trip
