Bill.... Very cool story thanks for the memories too...LOL.. I started around the age of 6 or 7 years old when my dad got me my first kit...was hooked instantly. Now at 54 years old I find the memories are so much more important to me of those days building with my dad back then. I wish I could find/afford some we had built together again to have that got lost over all the years. I am lucky enough to have whats left of my dads old collection I have been trying to find stuff so I can restore them with since a tornado here in 2011 where many of his and mine were damaged or lost. Got to hang on to those memories and dreams...its what keeps us going.

Xs 2...!!!

I have around 100 that I still hope to restore if I can ever find/afford the needed parts for them but it has not been looking good for them over the past years.

Those are cool..!

That is such a horrible situation there....my heart goes out to them all and prayers do too. One month before my wife and I got married her mothers house burnt to the ground early one morning...she lost her mom and stepdad in it but at least her three young brothers got out an upstairs widow and were pretty much ok. Going through that with her was very hard..cant imagine what they all are going through.

Thats cool Rusty..! Looks great..! I too would like to use straight 6cyl engines in some of my project builds....60s Ford...Chevy...AMC...etc.

So true Pat....trying to get by on disability income is not easy ether. Keep up the great work on it..I love it all.

Me...I appreciate the ones AMT has reissued for us but wish they could/would reissue these for us....been after them for way too long and cant afford the old originals....and we once had these in our family in 1 to 1 scale once... MPC 71-75 Dodge vans MPC 71 Dodge Demon MPC 68,69,70 Bonneville HTs MPC 69,71,72,73 Impalas AMT 71 Pontiac Ventura/Sprint MPC 69,70,71,72 Pontiac Grand Prixs MPC factory stock 70/71 Mercury Cyclone Spoiler or GT AMT 66 Buick Skylark MPC 65,66 Dodge Monacos and others. Being a mostly factory stock builder its easy to see why Id want these plus my family had owned real ones of them once id like to make replicas of them with.

Thats awesome...!!! I had that once as a kid loved it. Me...Ill build anything even though some are hard to due to lack of interests in them...on my so called budget I have to.

Pat buddy... I seen many things there I could use if I had the budget to...Wish I was rich..LOL..!

be cool to have.

Like it..???...I love it..LOL.. I have to find the MRC gas stations kits and start over on the ones I had built that the 2011 tornado took form me sometime...great way to display the builds on.

very cool Mike...! I am a huge fan of the 60s wagons....we need more kits of them.

Mine love boxes....too much...LOL...

Ron... I have to get me one of those 70 Chevelle snap kits with stock wheels now....LOL..

Tyler....I hear Mobious is coming out with one but its a stepside bed truck.

Very nice Pat...! Im loving it.

Very cool....very nicely clean build..!

Very very cool...!

Dave buddy....I love the Travelall project.....my dad owned one once and Id love to be able to make a replica of it.

Yesterday I git a old build up of the Johan 69 Cadilac Coupe DeVille HT for my family own vehicle collection from a trade deal....now to find the glass and rear bumper for her.

Nice..! I have that one but the body and glass are toast sadly.

WOW...!!!

Im loving this...! Very cool car and project...I love the mid to late 60s 300s.

man..That kind of hurts in a way....My first real car was a 72 Olds Toronado...someday Id like to find a model or promo of one to have for my family owned car collection.
