  1. Very nice!...just like the one I use to have only mine ended up 4 foot shorter in the back.
  2. I like both scales ...however some 1/24th scale models look so out of scale when placed next to a 1/25th scale and same for the other way around. For me I just prefer the 1/25th scale for the most part. Now some 1/24th scale and 1/25th scale models look very close in scale when together as a side by side comparison of the same basic model. There are many great kits in both scales some not made by the other....when it boils down to it if its a good kit-its a good kit regardless of scale. A kit is only as good as you make it when building but some have their qualities others do not too.
  3. I think if the box art shows white wall tires they should be included in the kit....correct ones like the 70 series white walls would be great the skinnys look goofy on many models.
  4. Those are COOL.... wish they made them in 1/25th scale.
  5. Nice work. I like the Ponchos....been wanting to find a few myself from the late 60s.
  6. Id build an old kit any day....Johans included...love them even though they require a bit more work to clean up and test fit at times. I loved the older kits as a kid because of what they were of....late 60s Pontiac,Chrysler,Chevy,AMC,Cadillac,Dodge,etc. I could not care less if they are curbside or not its the car/truck it represents that means something to me....the body style and memories of building when I was young and fit simpler times. Chrstian...Ill take all the Johan stuff I can get...LOL...
  7. I have a sealed 70 Cornet pro-street Id trade off if needed just send me a PM.
  8. VERY NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have the 61 been wanting to restore but it needs a lot before I can...hope when I can it comes out close to as nice as yours. Love wagons.
  9. Nice!... Years ago I owned a 75 TA....miss that car.

  12. Hey that is good to know...never know when you might need it or someone else?
  13. I try to get in as much time as I can but many times other things get in the way and put things on hold...bummer.
  14. Great story about the model...always great to hear of them not going to waste. Nothing is too far gone to be of no use at all.....I have built many cool models and restored many with what many would thing of as useless junk....all you have to do to find out is look at my photobucket here under my profile. The 69 Plymouth 4door wagon was once thought of as nothing but junk by another but I seen some potential hiding in it yet. never toss anything out...just send it to me if you want to....I will find a good use for it.
  15. I built in my parents basement on a big long table.

  20. I am very sorry it happen to you man...love to catch someone trying here. Before my accident I had my own auto repair shop at my house same thing happen when we went for a vacation...lost thousands in equipment,parts, supplies,tools as well as damage to customer cars which I had to pay for due to we had just gotten it started up. Now I have a used 24/7 time lapse photo recorder....and something that goes bang for them. We also had things that could never be replaced taken or destroyed...feel for you all.
