    Nice Caddy...! I am a fan of the Johan Cadillac kits. Carl sometimes older kits become brittle with age...older usually the more brittle but have seen some that were just like the day they were made.

    I started building in the early to mid 70s at 6 or 7 years old....there were great kits out back then...miss them. Happy birthday folks... ...hope you all have many many more and with plastic.

    Welcome Tyler...! Nice VWs....a very good friend of mine once gave me great building advice to help my builds look better...treat every part as if it were a model itself and building is supposed to be fun and not a race. I have been building since about 6 or 7 years old...

    Steve.... That is one beautiful car....we owned a 69 and a 70 once loved them both.

    Most companies are very happy to make things right with newly purchased kits that came from stores they deal with...but there is always someone that thinks they know it all and can get anything past them. Older issued kits your on your own with like my Unimog truck kit...who knows maybe it was a hobby shop kit that got opened by someone and got re-sealed thinking it was still complete..? Glad they exchanged the 2 wagon kits...got smart and opened them up in the parking lot and caught it quick enough.

    I have had this happen from time to time before...My Revell Mercedes Benz Unimog snowplow truck kit was sealed but inside there were no tires or wheels for it...shame looks like a good kit. I also bought 3 65 Chevelle wagon kits....opening them I found 2 had 63 Impala HT kits in the box instead of the wagon kits...right from a hobby shop.

    I would as long as its a larger sized one and not a dinky one....there is lots of possibilities for use and most are built pretty decently. bad thing is mine would look like one to a point...LOL..and I do not think the wife would go for it.

    Great to hear your getting better Don...hang in there. After my accident I had to learn how to do somethings over again or new ways to do them so I can kind of relate...be stubborn and persistent it pays off.

    Carl....Where were they sold at...Ill look around here for you buddy. I need to find a bunch of scale figures too...some are 007 James Bond and Mel Gibson as Mad Max like the first movie.

    The ones that get me the most are trying to sell parts even just one for the price you can go buy the same kit for....do they really think people are that dumb...???...of course someone will take them up on the offer... . I have no problem paying someone a premium for a hard to find part if its worth it. Glad I trade with people here.

    Scott buddy....as long as your both good for each other and get along good its easy to have a long term relationship. Me and the wife have been together since about 1992 we both do not always agree with each other rarely do but we work together well for each other. be yourself its what she will end up with right..?

    Scott buddy...the 69 was a cool looking car but I prefer the 70 LTD...2 door,4 door,wagon any would make me happy for plastic. I have the 70 LTD 4 door HT promo but it needs about everything been crushed...bummer.
  24. disabled modeler
