  1. One thing is too hard for me I need/use so many things all the time on them... 70 series width tires with a white wall on them...I always am in need of them. Chassis screws The little extras kits came/come with...mini bikes..dirt bikes..tools..campers..scale figures...etc. Diorama items. any extra factory stock parts in the hopes of using them on my restorations or project builds.
  2. Steve...That is so sweet looking..!!!
  3. Id need to find the green one then being most of my builds/restos are factory stock. My biggest curse is trying to find parts,etc. for the ones I have from my dads old collection so i can restore them to what they should be like again...sometimes it can seem hopeless but I just cant give up on them. On my budget e=bay is out of the question.
  4. Nice...!
  5. Cool...ill have to find one sometime then.
  6. Love it..! I wish the companies would or could offer us all some 67-73 Cadillac kits.
  7. Its a great kit...I had one years ago...wish I still did. I have a HT one I need to find the body and glass for someday...hope.
  8. Snake....Man have i been there before too. Is the Chevelle snap a decent looking kit..?...been wondering about it...may need to find me one for my collection..? Does it represent close to a 1/25th scale one or is it a bit larger..??? I have done weeks of bodywork to some only to have the paint give me issues requiring them to be stripped and redo the bodywork before...man that is a huge bummer...
  9. Man do I love working and restoring these things...sometimes its the only way to get a certain vehicle in ones collection also. I am still hoping to find a few that mean something to me someday ether a promo or model of them like a 75 Firebird or TA...and others. Sometimes one can find a few of the same ones and use all them to make one decent one from. Really cool seeing this photo of them sitting on the table there.
  10. Nice trucks..! I have a couple of the old AMTs I want to restore...one has the overhead camper top but it has a ton of glue on it and pretty messed up sadly. I cant believe they have not re-issued this one yet.
  11. Ray... I am very sorry for your loss brother. There is a huge difference between pet owners and pet people...to us their just like our own kids and treated as such. Id say get another one to share your time with...we lost a few to the same issues..one had to be with me all the time when I was home she was 20 years old. We adopted a stray male last year..he has seem to taken over for her and has the same traits ...makes one wonder ..huh..? Id get another one Ray...they cant replace the ones lost but they try.
  12. Awesome work..stunning Steve..! I still have not found a realistic looking 671 blower set up with the butter fly injection scoop for my Tall T yet but hopeful. I just hope mine comes out at least half as nice as yours and Ill be happy..LOL..
  13. Chuck...That looks very nice..! I love the long roofs. I have a sedan but it needs a body and glass for it...id be thrilled to see them make a sedan kit of this someday.
  14. Nice Pontiac...! I am all for the wider width tires with a white wall on them like MPC use to use....many models look funny with the skinny tires on them. I wish they would put the wider width tires with a normal white wall on them in kits so they will look the part.
  15. I had one of these promos years ago...there a very nice replica of the real ones. cool.
  16. Very nice of you to do Ron....some things can mean so much to others...even small things...I bet it looked awesome.
  17. Awesome...! I have always liked these cars. I have a old promo I want to restore of it someday..hopefully. Nice work..!
  18. Matt... WOW that is Wild..! very cool. very nice weathering...!
  19. Welcome Doug..! I love the 60s vehicles myself.
  20. LOL..Yeah Marty knows I am a huge fan of wagons ....very nice work on this one.
  21. Jim...That is sweet...!
  22. I am simply stunned at this build....awesome work..!
  23. Stunning Tim...! Shes beautiful...!
  24. I love that answer Randy...LOL.. Me...if you count the restorations waiting for parts to be found for them I have around 100 but cant work on them all at once or till I find what they need so its which ever one I can. Then there is about 40 project build ideas I want to try out but normally I will work on just one at a time...maybe two..?
