Bob wills 83, you have a P.M.( letter icon on your sign-in page)

Just googled it .I got it confused with the 1926 Seagrave pumper Ertl did .They do a 1937 Ahrens-fox pumper too
-
Steve , that came out as a Ertl die cast in the 1990's? they used the plans left by Amt/ Lesney to make it. It is a nice fire truck and they aren't hard to get.

Fenton, Mi ,(off Owen road)had the Round 2 display Monday, by Tuesday it was bumped offf the main aisle and kits regulated to the shelves in the toy section. All Coke trucks and cars left. No 64 Olds , 63 Chev wagon, or Grumpy's Vega.😪

Steve(can-con) Is the sunroof off a Johan 76-77 Eldorado (snap kit or promo) grafted on? or did you scratch build it? Just curious. Either way it is excellent!

TO fix find a 1972 Amt Mustang body. Graft promo body front clip on to keep sealed hood . Use engine block off from promo on kit chassis .Use kit glass if needed . Reuse promo wheels .Use new kit chrome or re-chrome Promo bumpers . Paint all body panels with Grabber blue paint including under side. TAPE OFF AND PAINT LOWER SIDE SILVER AND I THINK THE SEPERATE EXHAUST WAS SILVER ALSO?( But not 100% sure). A LOT OF WORK BUT A GOOD FAKE 160$ PROMO FOR YOU OWN SHELF when done! Very challenging but can be done!

Happy belated birthday ,Carl!

Thank you Dave and Mobius for fixing it. Now guys go vote with you wallet$. I'm in for 2 of them for sure!

Reuhkapelti2- you have just inspired me to kit bash my 66 Nova kit with a 1963 Chevy 2 wagon- roofs are the same on the real cars, thank you!!!
-
Sorry to hear that! Hopefully next year will be less restrictive.

I had this very kit as a kid. I didn't build it that good though! Thanks for the memories! The Lindberg kits were simple to build, didn't have to paint them( just the tires with Testor's 15 cent bottle of black), and were kool, non-conservative hot rods for the time! They represented freedom from rules and the need for speed to this teen kid!

Peter31a, Does the test have to be done at the border on the way back? Are there over-the-counter Covid tests that can be bought cheaply at the drug stores here (USA)?(Rite aid , Walmart , Walgreens, CVS)?, and be used to prove you don't have covid on the way back? Just thinking out loud for you! You need to ask the Border Patrol these questions ahead of time. The cost of that Covid test in Canada looks like a Money grab for the Canadian government!( moderator- just stating a fact here not making it political!)We welcome all Canadian model fans to our show in Macomb, Michigan, Good luck and Happy hunting!

We have a stock one( real car) running around here in Highland ,Mi, in the same color scheme!
-
Picked up 2 "Racer's Wedge's'' "at the White Lake, Mi Hobby Lobby yesterday at 40% off . Just an excellent buy at that price! Now I can put a Dodge, Ford , & Studebaker cab on them.
-
The stock chassis and interior are on the steel tooling tree for the AFX Tempest. Now let's lobby Round 2 for a re-tooled stock body 1963 Tempest conv/ ht , just like they did with the 64 Cutlass Kit.
-
Thats4u, excellent buy, good luck, good Karma. Now go buy a Lotto ticket!
-

My buddy has CRS disease. He told me Lowes instead of Walmart has models. Sorry for any misinformation this has caused to any Tennessee modelers. Previous post is now deleted. Very sorry!

That must be Toyota then. A person I know has a 2-year lease on a hydrogen-powerd car in California that he drives. (ca emissions only) .
