  1. Id like to see some 60s/70s kits with Ford...Chevy...AMC straight 6cyl engines for an option . A buddy of mine owns a early 70s Plymouth Gold Duster in 1 to 1 he drives it has a straight 6cyl with a turbo.
  2. Your welcome buddy.... I have one I want to make like our truck...a 84 Chevy 4x4 long bed with 33 x 12.50 x 15 Mickey Thompson tires on it.
  3. Like you I am on a almost no budget...one has to get creative when they are. Good places to find supplies and parts cheap are... any extra parts from models or damaged ones Old radios for wiring supplies some toys have parts that can be used on builds Plastic scratch building stock is a great idea if one has or can acquire it I have built many from just junkers before...did a 69 Plymouth 4 door wagon from a pile of extra parts and a couple of busted up glue bombs.
  4. Nice...! I always had a soft spot for the 71-76 Dodge long bed pickups and van kits.
  5. You have a soft spot for Elcaminos....I have one for the wagons..love your 60s wagon...I have a old AMT 60 Elcamino.
  6. its sad but true there will always be the black sheep that will do things like that...in every field. I think that must be why my Revell Mercedes Benz Unimog snow plow truck kit was sealed but still found it was missing the tires and wheels to the kit. They wont take kits back that have been opened so Im stuck till I can find replacements for it.
  7. Same here....if hes very busy with work loads its because hes good at it. I have a bunch of stuff that will be going to him for re-plating once I have them ready.
  8. Agreed....still I love those kits there fun to build.
  9. Mine came from a garage sale.
  10. Mine has the side inserts for the body but no glass for the window sides....too bad it looks like a very cool kit.
  11. Cool... I have had the same idea for awhile now...I have the same coach body...LOL..
  12. I have that one but sadly its missing the raised roof camper and interior camper parts to it....has a huge hole in the roof..well almost no roof.
  13. Cool old piece.....years ago I had a nice collection of the odd 1 to 1 intakes..etc. I still have a factory one for a 70 Yenko Sport Nova small block.
  14. I feel your pain Michael..... I have been trying to find some and or parts to those for years myself. I once owned a 75 Dodge factory custom van and my dad had a 72-75 window and cargo van...Id love to be able to make replicas of them for my family owned vehicle collection someday. Hope you find the one you need.
  15. For me..I did not see anything overly exciting for me this month....but that is just me too.
  16. Your a brave one.....I cant even imagine wanting to sell off all my stuff but then again building/restoring models/promos in pretty much my life now since I became disabled. I hope you find the right answer to your situation for you.
  17. Dang....all I got was another huge bill in the mail Saturday...LOL..
  18. Nice collection..!!! You have some I once had before our tornado and have been on my grail list ever since...! WOW...!!!
  19. David....that 1/8th scale standard 79-81 TA kit is AWESOME...!!!
  20. now that one is just like mine molded in green other than mine now needs the body and glass....good find..!
  21. very nice Pontiacs Randy...!!!
