Very COOL..! I love and have been fascinated with blowers since I was a kid...built a few blower engines in 1 to 1 myself. I build a 355ci with a 671 and Hilborn fuel injection once for a 29 Ford coupe I had before my accident. I have the Lindberg Tall T but Ill have to find some parts to build it as I want to...realistic 671 blower set up with butterfly fuel injection scoop...wheels and wide rears..etc. Id like to see if I can open up the doors on it too.

Very nice...! I have a huge passion for wagons of the 60s. I have this one but its in need of a lot sadly. Very cool score there..!

Your lucky.... I have one of those from my dads old collection but it suffered storm damage and is in need of parts now...cant find the ether. I have a passion for the 71-75 Dodge van kits owned a 75 Dodge factory custom van once...Id love to be able to make a replica of her someday. Very cool find..!

As many of you know I lost about 75% of my and my dads old collection in a tornado here in 2011....many I will never be able to replace...childhood ones...ones we built together...ones that meant a lot to me. Id love to be able to replace some that got lost but on my so called budget it might as well just stay a dream of mine. Right now all I can do is hope/pray to be able to find parts to repair/restore the ones that are left and that wont be easy ether...its a huge list...mostly 60s to mid 70s body style stuff. I had collected old models..promos..boxes..instructions..etc. for many years but now most of them are gone sadly...just feels like someone robbed me of my good memories in a way. My dad had collected many like vehicles the family had owned..I hope to restore whats left of his and do them as he did as family owned replicas if i can..???

Fred.... I hear you there. me being a builder and collector and not being able to pay those prices has kept me from restoring the ones I do have. My plan IF it ever comes to light is to build mine as ones the family had owned but some of them Ill need to find yet and on my budget it might as well be impossible...??? early 70s Dodge window van...and cargo van. 75 Dodge factory custom van 72 Chevy window van 72? Chevy mini motorhome van 70 Ford cargo van 74? Dodge van cab and chassis motorhome

Id love to be able to get my Open Road Mini Motorhome van restored and get a hold of others or parts to them so I can...I love vans and campers and we owned a few in my family....one just like the Chevy camper van....73 Dodge cargo van...75 Dodge factory custom van...72? Dodge window van...74 Chevy window van....74 Dodge van cab and chassis motorhome. I think they would be a blast to build and great for the memories too.

Charles.....I am looking forward to the project too very much. Just have to find stuff and a couple of the MRC gas station diorama kits to have a starting place again so I can remake them. I did have large heavy built plexi-glass covers for them both so they would stay clean and I could stack them up for storage too...once sat together they looked like one huge diorama. My plan was to display some of my dads old ones on it..figured it would be fitting for them. I have a long way to go on the dioramas and my dads old ones yet...needed parts,etc. has got them on hold sadly.
-
I want to build cars,etc. from the first movie...maybe make a diorama for them as well.

Terry.... I need the decals..all phone company related parts from one of these kits...love to have the box I like old boxes. I had a unbuilt sealed kit of it but the storm here took it and damaged my old build up...tiring to restore the old build up if anyone can help me..? This is such a cool old kit shame round2 would bring it back out for us all. -
I have been wanting to build some race team sets for some time....that one is cool..! My issue is mine would need some of the AMT service car trailers with the tire racks and enclosures.
-
Karl...sounds cool to me. bad thing is Im a builder/restorer with pretty much no budget to work with. One of my uncles owned a 70 Ford panel van he customized.
