TIM, IT WAS PLASTI DIP METALIZER IN A SPRAY CAN. YOU BEST BET IS TO COPY THE IMAGE AND MAKE IT IN CARD STOCK OR DECAL. THEN MAKE A TEMPLATE. THEN GLUE IT IN.

TIM , OVER THE WEEKEND I WAS AT WALMART AND THE COMPANY THAT MAKES THE COLORED PLASTIC/ RUBBER DIP FOR YOUR TOOLS, HAS PAINT THAT IS THIS GLITTER PAINT ALSO. IT SAYS TO PAINT OVER THE COATING OF THE TOOLS.IT IS NOT THE AS SEEN ON TV COMPANY!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLASTIC DIP?

NICE - QUALITY BUILDS , JOHN I LIKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

REMEMBER THEIR BUSINESS MODEL IS RETRO PACKAGING AND TO0LING FROM THE GOLDEN ERA OF MODELING 1958-1969, THOSE KIDS ARE NOW RETIRING, HOW MANY MORE KITS DO YOU EXPECT US TO BUY?? IF IT DOESN.T HAVE NEW PARTS, DECALS, OR BOX ART , I AM NOT GOING TO BUY IT, IF I ALREADY HAVE 2 OR 3 IN THE STASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! . IF I WANT THOSE GM SHOW/ DREAM CARS THEY ARE MADE IN 1/18 DIECAST. THE LIMITED MARKET IS ALREADY FILLED FOR THOSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YEARS AGO IN THE DISCO ERA, REAL TRANS AMS HAD THIS TYPE OF PRISM DECAL OR STICKER ON THE DASHBOARD. YOU COULD BUY IT FROM CAL CUSTOM ?BACK THEN. TRY MICHAELS, HOBBY LOBBY OR AN ART SHOP IN YOUR AREA. ALSO TRY LOOKING IN THE SCRABOOK SECTION WITH 8 X 10 PAPER SHEETS YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT DESIGN YOU CAN FIND. IN MODEL CARS, THE 1/25 AMT BARRIS ISSUES OF THE 66 MUSTANG IN 1978? ( GREEN CAR ON COVER AND GREEN PLASTIC INSIDE) HAD A SHEET OF THIS INCLUDED IN THE KIT. THE SCALE MIGHT BE OFF , THOUGH!!!!

ED OR ELLEN, THE RESIN 1954 PLYMOUTH WAGON IN 1/25TH SCALE WAS MADE BY PERRYS RESIN AT ONE TIME .

TOM, YOUR LINK IS IN THE UNDERGLASS SECTION FROM SEPTEMBER 13, 2012. BUILD IS 1923 FORD CARNY WAGON OUT OF THE AMT BUDWISER 1923 FORD "C" CAB. GASSER59- HIS SCREEN NAME BUILT IT ( BRAD NORGAARD) PHEONIX, AZ

THAT'S A FAKE BOX! THE PICTURE IS LIFTED FROM HEMMINGS' STORY ON THE MUSTANG DRAG CAR. THIS WAS NEVER ISSUED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BUT IT IS COOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ART, I THINK IT IS MISSING LINK RESINS. CONTACT KEVIN WITH A P.M. HE IS GOOD AT ANSWERING BACK!!!

THE GUYS ARTICLE HAS SOME DATES WRONG. HE HAS SAE READERS WANTING IT REISSUED IN 1993, BUT LINDBERG STATING IN 1991 THAT THEY ARE BRINGING OUT A NEW 34 PICKUP. THE RUMOR OR LIE THAT I HEARD AT THAT TIME WAS THAT THE TOOL WAS SENT OUT FOR CLEAN UP AT A TOOLING PLACE(HENCE THE POLISHED MOLD) BEFORE AMT WAS SOLD TO ERTL IN 1988 .THEY WERE PROBABLY PLANNING TO REISSUE IT! THE TOOL FOR THE 34 PICKUP SAT AT THE TOOLING COMPANY TILL SOMEONE PAID THE BILL FOR CLEAN UP( 40K?) SOMEHOW LINDBERG FOUND OUT ABOUT IT( REMEMBER GEORGE TOTTOFF WAS A PARTNER AT LINBERG THAT TIME, WORKED PREVIOUS AT AMT, AND MPC AND HAD A LOT OF INDUSTRY CONNECTIONS.) THEY BOUGHT THE TOOL FROM TOOLING COMPANY FOR THE OUTSTANDING BILL LEFT FROM THE AMT/ LESNEY SALE.***************** FEEL FREE TO CORRECT ME OR CLARIFY ME ON ANY OF THIS, GUYS!!!!!!!!!!! THIS IS THE STORY I GOT FROM THE VENDORS AT THE MAUMEE , OHIO TOY SHOW. TIM BOYD OR ART ANDERSON, OR MARK B WHAT IS YOUR TAKE ON THE STORY?????*******************************

HOW ABOUT PUTTING THEM AS ORNAMENTS ON A CHRISTMAS TREE NEAR THE WORK BENCH.?
