  1. I just had a GREAT trade with(toylvr)Mike....!!!! Thanks Mike!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  2. The Shovel kit would be SWEET too..!!!!
  3. Now that would be SWEET...!!!!
  4. Hi Ed...welcome! Good to know you have a sense of humor.
  5. I can understand your point of view here Lee....sometimes people are just hoping for a deal or think maybe the other is just tired or not interested in the item there wanting to try and get? There are many kits/models I personally value more than a high dollar kit due to my interests in it. I just traded a expensive rare resin kit of a couple of old promos and some people just do not care for promos at all...me I am different there...depending what there of I love them so I am very happy to make the trade deal. Now on the other hand I always try to keep things happy for both me and the other guy with a trade...both parties have to feel their getting a value from the deal at hand. I guess it depends on who wants what enough in the end?
  6. Yep the A-Team GMC van does have the roof ribs...I have one.
  7. Nope it does not... ....bummer too.
  8. That is right the 68 Impala kit has never been re-issued it was also available as a promo but there expensive and hard to find...
  9. The original van kit had no roof ribs but did have an opening hood and choice of ether cargo van or window van side panel inserts...loved them....shame they couldn't have brought back those options.
  10. Rust took mine too but had no place to store the engine so I sold it for 300.oo and the guy drove away in it...it had the 350ci 4 bolt main too...great engine!
  11. Those are sweet Kerry!...I tried years ago to get one I guy was going to junk out....couldn't get it done it was a 4 speed one.
  12. I once had a 73 Chevy cargo van my dad bought it a year old with 9,000. miles on it gave it to me many years later I drove it forever when I sold it it had 479,000 miles on the same engine with very little ever needed to be done with it....still ran great.
  13. NICE Johans!!!.... I have the old original Davinci move-able crane kit...talk about an odd kit.
  14. Id rather have it Mopar powered but if I had to change it would be a 355ci Chevy for me
  15. I would have bought them too...love the Johan kits even there snaps were good in my opinion...take all of them I can get. Sure they had flash but to me who cares when you consider the ones they made.
  16. I am just happy there making them for us... now if they would just show up around here at our hobby lobby
  17. LOL... I don't know but its so ugly I like it!....I am thinking it has to be Russian maybe?
  18. I have had too many brushes with mortality....bad car accidents,lighting,etc....just still happy to be here anymore. Age creeps up on all of us sooner or later. We have no kids of our own but raised the wife's 3 brothers after their parents passed in a house fire in 93 just shortly before we were married so its kind of the same as having kids in away...one has had to movie back in with us last year....life always has challenges.
  19. I got a resin 61 Corvair wagon the other day from a trade deal....its so ugly its cool but need to find more full to mid sized 60s wagons for my collection of wagons.
  20. Been there too...still there. I just had an appointment with the eye doctor...age is catching up with me too. Buddy of mine uses the magnifying eye glasses with lights on them....seems to work for him anyway.
  21. You could find some extra springs and try to re-arch them using some heat carefully to the desired shape?
