Nova-ss replied to Models by Bear's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Tell her good job and keep building.my sweetie builds a little to...but not alot,thats ok.I have a friens whos daughter builds as well.she does a good job.Thanks,Chris -
I,like most of us,have models then I can build.I've run across sellers or collecters that charge more then I'll pay.I don't care what it is or how much its worth....I'm going to build it! unbuilt models don't mean anything to me other then what it is after its built.what we can make out of it is the value.....to me.I've spent money on kits cause I want to built it.then I would run across it some were for less.I stopped doing that and in time I've found what I wanted.I know some day when I going to the big shop in heaven or the other place.I will leave kits here....oh well,I only hope that those who get them build um.Thanks,Chris

Revell Alaskan Hauler
Nova-ss replied to rssschris's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
I know and have had many Revell of Germany kits...if that is what you are asking.they build well.but in my opinion some parts are not accuate....I've measured and compared them with the real thing.but you don't see the parts that are not accuate most of the time.price very on kit and age of kit but most of the time are about 60.00 dollars.Thanks,Chris -

hi All,I thank you all for your info.I don't know enouch about these engine and the kits they came out of.I know there old cause they have holes for the front axle.I have a bag full of these and some not painted or glued.I don't know what they should be put in.I have other bags full of body parts and interior and wheels and chrome parts.to much to know what to put them in....I'm a heavy truck builder.I do build some other stuff to but don't know about these parts.I'll show other pictures of the other stuff to if any can help it would be a big help.TIA....Thanks,Chris -
Very interesting project.so are you going for the show look?and did you plan on what the wheel base was going to be....if so,what is the wheel base? thank you,Chris

hi All. I'm looking for some parts for a AMT 1966 Olds 442.I'm looking the some headers and a intake like Victor Jr.I don't want to have to make them,but if I have to I will.I want a set of headers so I can have some place to start if I have to make them.so is there a kit or a resin company that makes these parts,if so....who and need address.I've made a Moroso wedge pan all ready for this engine,its turned out good...I think.so any help as to where to find this stuff would helpful.TIA Thanks,Chris
-
Well,I like the look.I don't think or believe it is ugly.I will build the kit but as far as owning the real thing....no way,to much to pay for it.but the car is nice looking.I think the LF-A Lexus looks better then the GT-R,but that is my opinion.I'm glad to have as many new kits as we can get.Thanks,Chris
