Robert,
Sure you've seen a b&w photo of the T-bolt and a burgandy car is going to look black in the photo. Butch Leal never had a black T-Bolt. You can always call or e-mail Butch and ask him.
Bill,
You've got that right, as I too have paid high dollar for a couple of hard to find kits several years ago, only to see them both re-issued. I wish I only paid $30 for each kit, but it was more in the 80- 100 dollar range. NEVER say never!
Are there any past memmbers of The Old Town Escorts Model Car Club from Chicago on this forum? This club was in it's heyday from about 1975 to 1986 and was a great club to belong to in its time.
Don,
Welcome,you will find this forum very helpful as well as entertaining.All the help you would need is right here as there are many very talented builders on this site willing to help others. Building models back in the 60's was a great time and lots of memories.
To all you Pontiac and drag racing fans,today is Arnie "the farmer" Beswick's 80th birthday. Last Sunday I saw him making 1/4 mile passes at over 180mph. He is truly a drag racing legend as well as a great guy.
impcon,
I just picked up a beautiful MINT '60 Ford Sunliner a couple of months ago. I was shopping for a friend of mine in the Denver area and have since shipped the kit out there. I do know of someone who has a '60 Ford Sunliner kit that has had the paint stripped and I believe that it's for sale. Send me a PM if you're interested and I'll give you the guys e-mail addy.
