What did I get today ? Screwed is what I got . Ordered this kit on eBay because I always liked it . Listing claimed complete and in new condition . Today I got the bag of parts . Without taking an inventory I noticed no tires , no wheels , no decals . May be more missing but that is enough . Giving seller a chance to make it right but failing that I will avail ebay of its help .
I believe the rims & tires are the same as the ones that came in the old MPC Dodge vans. If you don't locate any, I have the van ones.

Non-subscriber here too. If anyone finds out where to purchase this issue,please let me know! Thanks!

Nice Cal Look bug cruising the highway.

Bill is correct. There are rims & hubcaps in the MPC 78 Ford "SunRunner" van kit.
Probably in other MPC vans as well, but that's the only kit I have.
They are not correct. The lettering should be stamped into the cap, not raised.

Nice looking parts Bill !!
The 1st hubcaps would be 1969-72 truck, but have seen them later on the vans.
The 2nd hubcaps would be 73-87 3/4 & 1-tons. The 1/2 tons only had 5 spokes,not 6.
I have all those Dodge grills from original models. Will have to order yours to see how they compare.

WOW! All great looking stuff Bill!

I like your color chose. I like #4 for the air cleaner. It's gonna flow more air in real life.

How many of us have a 1962 Dodge Lancer in his collection?
A lot of us would buy them just because it's something new and different.

Someone say 62 Lancer? LOL. Mine is slowly being restored.

Like Snake said, I try to build em all to look cool. I picked this one because I built it when I was challenged by a great friend to build it in
just 30 days for a club model meeting contest. Never really cared for the F1 Trucks. I prefer the 53-56 Ford F100's.

There are 1/24 scale diecast Airstream trailers out there.

Good to know stuff! Thanks Bill.

1st picture is my 56 Ford pickup I built in 1975.
2nd pic is my TransAm Ford Courier I built in 1980.
Next pic is my 56 Victoria I built in 2015.
36 Ford roadster I did this year,2019
I do love building models & love repairing old kits & old builds.
The Vega I originally built in 1975. Been repairing the hacked quarter panel wheel wells on it.
Also repairing the quarter panel wheel wells on the Falcon.

Interesting! I tried to look for a copyright date but couldn’t find one...how old are we talking, do you think?
Kit was issued in 1973

I still have my original QuickSilver version I built as a kid. It had the Gold colored felt for carpeting.

Received a few more 60's F350 Ford parts from Rookie Resin. Thanks Bill !
-
You did a great job on that Datsun! Love it!
-
I have always been fond of the Ford Vickie's, but never liked the Phantom Vickie model.
What you have done to that kit is simply awesome! I love everything about it!
Cool hot rod for sure!

Would be nice to actually see the 72 back! As stated above, think last time out was Model Kings Racers Wedge/Open Road camper in 2008.
I bought a pile of them in 95. I love the 67-72 GM trucks! Also have a bunch of builtups/junkers,parts.
Would be cool to have the earlier versions too. A photo-etch set is needed for these trucks too.
What did you get today? (Model Car Related Items)

Got a built 65 Riviera a while back,mostly because the Green car that Snake 45 built on here looked so cool.
I believe it is the 1986 issue.
Not real sure why there are Fairlane GT decals & rims on it & what looks to be Vega rims on the back.
Engine compartment was wired using thread. Is a pretty clean build.
I am going to take off the decals & try to wax the body and change rims.
