It does not happen that often around here (Kalamazoo). I am lucky to get a few kits a month in the winter. Garage sale time I do much better.

Went to a local thrift store and bought a AMT Mack R685ST truck, 18 bottles of older Testors paint, another AMT 1958 Chevrolet Impala and a small box of parts. All of it was 9.99, which was fine with me.

Just like others have posted I have bought enough multiples of one kit to make up a case (AMT 36 Ford, Revell 32 Ford). I did buy a case (more like 12) of NASCAR kits, but they were on clearance for two dollars a kit at a weird discount store in the Upper Peninsula. My family and I were on vacation at the time and I wanted to buy more but there was not enough room in our car for more.

That isn't worth two hundred dollars, let alone 2500.

Thank you for the info. I went there today and bought the mixer before I read this. I figured that at the least I could use the tires and engine.

The one here only has the Model A police car and the lil mixer. I have never built either. Are they worth buying?

Any update on the dirty half dozen? Hopefully they paid their debt.

That is sad to read. I hope that the six people follow through with their commitment.

Went to the closest Meijers with the intention of buying one or maybe two kits. Ended up buying two 32 Fords, one each of the Revell Chargers and Nova. Can't beat 11.99 for a 2 in 1 kit. The racks that the models were on looked full. I guess I am going back when I have more time and money.

Kalamazoo here. Michigan is a great place to live. Now it would be better if U of M would keep winning some football games.

So I have to know, how smooth does the engine run? The detail is far beyond anything I have seen or could imagine. The details are so real looking, it could drive down the road.

Voted.

Well there goes the Christmas money. Both models look great. I am going to need at least two of each.
