  1. I wish someone would do the old dragline from the 70s AMT brochure that never made it into production....the Garwood Garbage truck could be cool too.
  2. Looks like a MPC early 70s Corvette chrome tree to me.
  3. Id have no problem with it....these days too many things get wasted.
  4. Thanks Joe!.... I am just trying to help others that are often forgotten. While I am in no real position to fund it I have for the most part of 5 years on my own...rough times found me too and the donations of kits are a huge blessing to them and the builders group it helps keep it all going. I do have to agree with you on donating funds...there lucky if they see 20 cent on a dollar in the end most times. Here I have a policy...nothing ever goes to waste all and any extra parts get used on other future projects its just how I was raised. Having been there with nothing to do for months on end but lay in a bed and watch TV all day long I just had to try to change it somehow if I could.
  5. Hi Brain buddy!.... We try to get as many together as possible but health,etc. makes it tough so i do one on one with many of them. Congrats on yours...snap kits are good for all ages they still can be built into very nice models...my problem is my group likes the late 50s through 70s body styles not many snap kits out there in that body style. They seem to enjoy them as much as the glue kits...LOL... I have only gotten my nephew to built one snap kit but trying to get him more interested in them. Yep we have fun together in the group...nice to see them active too.
  6. I have the snow plow truck kit but its missing the tires and wheels....need a set there nice kits. Nice progress...going to be cool looking.
  7. Very cool...! Now if we could get them in a long bed.
  8. Very nice....I started to build a couple of dioramas and made good progress on both but will have to start over from scratch thanks to some bandits everything was a total loss
  9. They look good to me Steve... . Been wanting to cast some stuff myself someday but need to learn how to do bigger parts...bodies,hoods,etc. I have made small item before with use-able results but did not use resin.
  10. Yes we do....I have always liked the Johan kits even there snaps...always looking for more too. Nice work Sam...she looks great!
  11. What you doing with the old bumpers?...they will fit a 60 wagon.
  12. I feel the same way Carl....see too many at times just off the road missing their heads. Many areas have programs to use killed deer to feed needy families.
  13. Id love to have the Shasta one but funding stops me...bummer. If anyone has one I have trade stuff?
  14. I like it....very creative thinking and work....
  15. Id need a change of pants....
  16. Would work for me...pain afterwords but might be worth the pain just the same....
  17. Its about time...LOL...I figured once some of my dads oldies are restored it would be a great way to display them in a case...just hope our hobby lobby gets them in.
  18. COOL.... Love the auto transporter trailer kit...been after one for years now. I built the Turbine truck as a kid....very cool...!
  19. WOW...! X 2...! I have the same one but it does not look anywhere as nice as that one plus mine is missing the taillights and top boot. Beautiful Mustang Pat....
  20. That is beyond COOL.... I love it....
  21. Al...your parts to one probably has the rear window like my dads old 2 door HT did....looks like the one on the 70 Impala HT kit. My dads old 69 Impala HT was a Super Sport...some parts from the 70 kit will work for a 69 but not much...I need to find stuff for a 69 someday to build like his was....then if lucky enough try to make the wagon my mom owned?
