If that was an original issue-good deal. If that was the reissue from 7-8 years ago, that is what they go for now.

They might be from some kind of diecast.

Hey Jeff, you got to take care of a fellow Ballard first! Put me down for four.

I see they also have bases and kandies on their site

Seen these for sale at Coast Airbush and a few stores on ebay. They sound interesting so I am just cutius if any board members have tried these out.

I do not get it either. I have several jewish friends that drive German cars with no problem and the Jewish owned company I worked for had no problem purchasing process equipment from companies that contributed machinery to the Nazi war effort.

i have found success using a round ink eraser turned downed in diameter. Next I twisted it slowed on the BMF making an overlapping pattern.

Harry Ballard, my father. He introduced me to modeling as a young child by nurturing me and showing patience. He was a master wooden ship builder and made many different types of plastic models while I sat on the other side of the card table and worked on my kits.

Wow, this topic the inner souls. I found it ironic at the american steel company where I was employeed for 30 years that coworkers would complain about foreign autos yet they all had money invested in international funds intheir 401's. We sold more steel to Toyota and Honda than the big three combined. They saved us from bankruptcy. They were also much more professional in dealing with quality issues than the big three.

One of the past HRJ's had a detailed feature article on all the history of the car with extensive photos of the restored car. Revell said at last falls hobby show in Chicago the release will have a plastic hood.

This is a very important to me and I assume many others to finally determine if I should attempt this kit build. If anybody could tackle this, it would be you. If you do get all the assemblies together and have the rear hatch sit in place with a reasonably detailed engine-I'll start my build. I am counting on you Mark!

I would suggest the Revell parts packs for some nice and period correct engines that were released a decade or so ago. They are plentiful for reasonable prices.

Welcome bubba390, I am a daily reader and infrequent poster. I am your neighbor from Crown Point.

Modeling at it's best.

No, just where God would stick the tube it the planet needed an enema. Believe me I know from living here 59 years.

I do not know of a producer expect maybe special appearance decals. I would trade my original in the same condition as the one you posted if you are interested.

I had a slot car track made by itc which I think used the Hubley gull wings. I can barely remember them but the bodies were detailed well and not toy like.

To me it is not a big issue since many board members post extensive coverage of the show in their photo accounts sometimes before the end of the weekend. Also a rival board posts photos the following week. I do like holding a mag in hand best but my immediate gratification is met by the timely posts.

Do not forget the release of the original Tweedy Pie this spring.

You are right Doctor, that was the majority of the crowd at the event. Very nice young people.

I attended in Phoenix last October an evening lunch truck event where you paid $25 and got a wrist band to sample of the offerings as much as you liked from the 20 some trucks that were present. Young crowd and some us olders mixed in with a huge collection of hipsters. Quite the event with unique foods and positive vibes.

It makes me feel a lot better that a master like Donn had possible problems with the Twin H Power script on the trunk also. I tried every method known and still was not satisfied with the results. So I sanded the script off and forgot about it.

Merry Christmas to you and all the board members. Do not forget we need to get together as you are the only other builder I know of in Crown Point.

Stunning workmanship, I also saw the buildup on another site.
