  1. I am not familiar with that transkit but usually if a panel is included it is a replacement not a cover. You could always email Misha for details. He usually responds pretty quick (allowances for him being in Ukraine). He also posts often on Facebook.
  2. Here's the MPC BFG Tires. Looks like 20/32" inside diameter to lip. I got 21/32 with my digital caliper trying not to stretch and the ruler shows around 20 (maybe 21). I then took some AMT/Revell/MPC wheels out of the parts bin and put them in the tires for comparison. In the last shot you can see the oversize embossed lettering on the tires.
  3. You've seen enough photos of the box so I won't repeat, but I got the Revell C8 Couple yesterday
  4. I'll measure the set from the 69 MPC Camaro later this AM for reference. But I have to say those John Wick tires look the best option if reasonably accurate tread.
  5. Those are in my parts bin, yet to be used. Len, I do have a MPC 69 Camaro that has the BFG tires if you don't have them. I won't be using them. I am either unloading the kit or using it as a parts donor, likely the later.
  6. Model Builder Warehouse. Sad too because Randy carried a lot of interesting inventory.
  7. This is some of the MRC sets, never did BFG as far as I know
  8. I have a set of those ARII BFG's and have only used them on street trucks. IMO, they are not sized for autos. Too tall and too wide. If you'd like I can photo the dimensions?
  9. Drove up to Ilani resort/casino today for the annual car show. A little lighter this year on attendance. Wondering if the threat of severe weather and the I-5 construction north of there put a damper on attendees. We did get the severe weather (very unusual out here west of the Cascades) but not till around 5:00 PM. Anyway, took some photos (link below) especially of the several C8 Corvettes there. Since the Revell kit is just out, this hopefully will perk the imagination. Link to Show Album
  10. I do have two kits, so I can trade one off. Kit is unbuilt. If interested, PM with what you have to offer.
  11. This kit? If yes, I'll check the stash and confirm that I still have an extra.
  12. Sure is. Randy had a lot of interesting products. And great to deal with.
  13. Stopped off at a small swap meet today and got these for a very decent price.
  14. He closed. I recollect him saying he could not get reliable replenishments on a lot of the products.
  15. Car transporter trailer is likely the only one that has my interest.
  16. I prefer full detail, including engine. But some subjects are only available as curbside. If I want the model, I just have to "bite the bullet" and get the less detail. A lot of resin kits that are curbside are extremely difficult to modify for full detail and I usually say no to wanting to do it.
  17. Usually Mr Finishing Surface Black 1500 Primer, followed by Tamiya Tire Black. Then if needed, will do a semi-gloss clear. If decaling a tire, then after the black, I apply gloss clear then decal then semi-gloss or flat clear depending on the tire.
  18. Got it and replied
  19. I tried to resend and it says you cannot receive PM's again. I said a Ferrari would be an option, but I have quite a few. Otherwise, a new kit to swap would be interesting. See if you can send me a PM.
  20. Sent a PM to you and got through
  21. Well PM says you cannot receive messages. I am reasonably open to street vehicle options, but do have a large stash already. This kit is in the "Will Never Get Around to Build so Unload" category. What might you have to offer?
  22. I'll PM later today after the Site Maintenance is done.
  23. Still have it and unopened.
  24. I'll check tomorrow and let you know
  25. Went to this cruise in North of Vancouver proper. About 200+ cars on the grounds. Some pretty interesting ones and some not so much. Took about 220 photos. Something interesting for just about anyone (except perhaps exotics or race car fans). Album link is below along with some photos from the show. Link to Photo Album
