A buddy of mine here has that kit unbuilt still....old KWs are nice.

Ed... I wish I could afford one even a used or old style one off a junkyard car or..? Our truck needs another 75HP which one would easily add to it.

PM coming Tommy...thanks...!

I like the odd or old small blowers...just fascinated with them...love to find one I could rig up on our truck that mounts like a alternator.

Nice scores Tommy....the Dodge van is just like one my dad owned when I was a kid...cool stuff...

How about a propane tanker or acid tanker..?

Thanks Andy....it was a unexpected fun build for a warped kit......first time I attempted anything like this.

Hey Kevin.... I like it....nice work...

How about a portable car crusher trailer?

Welcome Tom...

Nice work...looks good to me...

Dan.... I can relate to that....every place I have ever worked for had guys like that. I spent most of my time doing the job of 2 or more people including the boss at one. He come in at about 10AM then go to lunch around 12 and come back around 2 or 3 then go home at 5PM...complain about not getting much done..??? Me many times id get there and start work around 4 or 5 AM work till 5 or ? PM just to get stuff that had to go out done on time and get gripes about overtime..really...? Some people just never get it I guess...? Funny thing is since I cant work anymore I actually miss working....have in there Dan.

OK Miles....was just wondering I have been looking for the old AMT 70,71 Ford LTD 4door HT model to build a family owned car replica of its kind of like a promo or snap kit/model. Thanks.

Jeff.... That those are COOL....! Nice work...!

Miles.... Is it a 70 Ford LTD 4door HT you got...or a 70 Galaxie 4door sedan...???

Thanks Don....things like this happen all too often and in the prime of life...been kind of rough but managing.

Johan did make a 71 Toronado kit and promo...love to have one my first 1 to 1 car was a 72 Toronado. Johan also made a 74 AMX snap kit...its another I have been after it was in there series of snap kits...72 Torino,77? Cadillac Coupe Deville,75 Cutlass S,Stude Lark and ? I always liked their snap kits they build into great models.

Nice builds.... I have always enjoyed building those kits...got a hold of some re-issues or originals but still looking for others yet...I never get tired of these kits...easy,fun to build.

Me too...LOL... I never get tired of it. Nice builds...! I am afraid of that too Steve...hope not.

I believe the crew cabs had roof skin ribs too...? Yes the Ford tough Truck dualie kits rear fender extensions will fit any of the AMT 73 through 79 year ones with the wide bed...I have both and they fit each other very well. I like the crew cab Ford idea I have a resin crew cab someone did years back..not 100% correct but think with some work it will be doable.

Cool...I like it. I always wanted to build the first movie car...loved that thing...

That is cool....never knew they existed...heard of the Royal Bobcat ones before though.

Welcome Mark.... I too like to build replicas of some of the movie cars(007 ones included)...

Id have to find or try to convert the 84 shortbed into a longbed for my replica build. I have the GMC snowplow kit but got it second hand and has no plow parts in it. I did find a toy armored personnel carrier toy with tires close to what mine has on it....50 cent garage sale item.

I have a old build up of the old gray tractor I am going to try to straighten out its warped badly lots of broken parts too...looks 1/25th scale to me anyway but I could be wrong too..?
