  1. 89akurt, I know what you are going through. Both my parents passed this year. Dad died in March; Mom followed in July. A deep sadness comes over you, and it is ok to cry. It is part of the grieving process! May the Holy Spirit relieve you of your pain and replace it with God's love! God Bless!
  2. Igmar, try packardprovinggrounds.org, they show blueprints for 40,000 original Packard factory blueprints
  3. Dave Van, let's call them Ollie's Follies. (kits made for Ollies)
  4. Tom99, I believe those cars were on metal Tonka Truck car carriers in the late 1960's and 1970"s. Boys please correct me if I am wrong!!!
  5. The Ollies in Waterford, Mi has the Coca Cola Chevy truck, both Hot Wheels Kits (Opel and 32 Ford)65 Nova AWB, Mach 5, etc.
  6. Gay toys- Walled Lake, Mi is now American Plastic Toys. Same location, still in business. I had a 1/16th or1/20th 1966 Bronco from there. It was super detailed like an AMT promo. Lots of quality for a plastic toy! LOL
  7. The Jo-han trademark was abandoned in 2002? It probably cost $$$$ to renew or re-register it. Lawyers bought the rights to it. The new Johan purchased the rights to the name from those lawyers? Google- Johan trademark- who owns it?
  8. Yes, I agree!
  9. satterwhite78, Linberg did one in 1/32nd scale. I believe it was a Grand Am and molded in tan?
  10. Steve G, Thanks to you and your team for listening to us, and making these old kits happen! Worth waiting 50 years for!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol
  11. David G. , remember this started out as a Promo by Hubley then released as a kit by Hubley in 1962? It was also released by Minicraft in the late 80's early 90"s and by many others. The tool is getting worn out in its many travels. You did a good job on this despite the body tool being worn out!
  12. One more thing, Carl, I didn't know they built models in the cave man days!!!! LOL( just kidding!)
  13. Slusher, have a great birthday to a great person!!
  14. doorsovdoon , look up 1/25th chevy stake truck diecast of the 1st truck shown. I think it was Ertl and/ or Liberty classics were the makers? They made a Cambell's Soup version and Coke- a- cola truck like that. Please google it. Sorry I don't have a link!!!
  15. Mothersworry, this takes me back to the Terrace or Mai Kai theater on Plymouth rd. in Livonia, Mi to see this film. It was state of the art in 1968. A.I. that betrays you! Lots of sci fi that came true in real life!!!
  16. Stitchup, ---------------ingenious!!!
  17. YEA! , more Tom Daniels kits!!!! Thank you, Cab Driver, for the update and thank you Atlantis for the Production run!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  18. Thanks Mark, my 63-year-old memory is still intact. LOL
  19. Racephoto 1, is that picture photoshopped?
  20. Raisin27, 1st picture looks like a real car! No wonder it won awards! Nice work!
  21. I believe these were sold through GM/ Pontiac parts departments.? A friend of mine delivered parts for Hollywood Automotive, Dearborn, Mi to Detroit area auto dealerships. I remember him, saying that's where he got them. He told everyone he knew that he collected promos or models! Anyone have a catalog with the GM/ Pontiac part numbers in them??Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong!
  22. Less is more, Zippi. Your style reminds me of Plowboy's models!!!!!!!!
  23. Chris Bitter, just make sure your deed restrictions don't have anything about trailers or people living in them on your property. Where I live you can only have them in your driveway for 3 days, before and 3 days after your trip!
