Paint touched up Hubs painted (Need another coat then install) Back wheels installed Engine fan attached to engine and sitting in there Gotta figure out colors for interior and ran out on my paint pen, so a trip is in order to a hobby shop for a few supplies

Time has been decent with this Italeri (Now Round2, Amt) 377 that I painted who knows how many years ago Had some repairs but minor... Next up is repairs need to cure and paint touch ups then onto assembly of Major pieces

Just got back from the WV Racing Heritage Fest via Pennsboro Motor speedway and again this year they had a model car show part of it... (Wish I could have brought some stuff but I didn't have time to get anything done this year for it, Maybe next year?) Enjoy the pics. They didn't give him enough room to unpack EVERYTHING... so he had to select a few totes only...

Just got back from the West Virginia Racing Heritage festival and the model car show there the buddy of mine brings me a box .. This is what was in it... The 50's Ford truck is missing I think one rear fender but is a great rebuilder for someone else? Yellow mustang looks like it was assembled rather nicely and will go on a case As Is White mustang looks like it was meant to be a dirt track car Ford truck is a uniside kit with no engine (Not a curbside) The red Ford sedan looks like it was going to be a drag car of some sort? Extra Ford truck cab and some odd/end pieces, and what appears to be a fender for a 55-57 Chevy truck??? 2 complete trailers just needs cleaned up and fixed Have a couple extra trailers with no axles or anything... Not sure what the orange piece is from? A toy of some sort the guy was converting to a trailer? Kyle Petty stock car... Unknown brand/maker Camaro stock car of some sort? Would like to find the missing glass for it ? Again unknown brand/maker Does say "Made in Hong Kong, @Design and Marketing concepts. Inc 1986" on the chassis Also what appears to be maybe some revell asa Camaros and a Torino body and some other body in the making to be a dirt track cars???

1 of 2 local Ollie's near me had this... Had to make a hard pass on the Transit Mixer due to financial since right now 😞 (Marietta Ohio location)

This is cool, Im wondering what are you using for the suspension on it? (Obviously the 2wd suspension is HOLY GRAIL status)

Hello, I just got done at Pennsboro Wv at the famous Pennsboro speedway dirt track where there was the model car show for 2024. 2nd year in a row. Got some pics I'll post and hope all enjoy. Some was there last year I remember, and some are built by another guy instead of whom has possession right now. I plan on trying to get some built to take next year whenever it happens again.

This is my Daily, I saved it from the crusher when I bought it Dec. 4th 2019 via Copart salvage auctions. Fully documented ( minus a few pieces I'm chasing down) 2nd Owner, Rust Free. It is my 1st vehicle I ever owned and don't plan on ever getting rid of it with the exception of passing it on to maybe my nephew? The first picture is what it looked like when I bought it, The following picture is what it looks like currently minus I pulled the toolbox out of it yesterday.

Finally got my lights and all, Was wildling away on a Monogram 57 Bel Air childhood kit Last night during a hangout that Gilbert Mondragon host on Friday evenings Now next on the list is a place for a spray booth and some shelves, etc...

I think this thread is getting confused with the What ya get thread?

Id love to find that bel air box withOUT the ollies sticker... ive got that same kit to and love it for it was one of my childhood kits i had as a kid

I'd help ya out but im to strapped for cash right now just trying to get through Christmas into Jan. when im hoping i get a decent check from ssdi...

My Marietta Ohio location as of right now minus 1 57 Bel Air that followed me home.

Thats cool, what scale is it and all?

The American Lafrance pumper kit might be the best bet for a donor chassis? or even the gmc titan would be abother option

Got 2 of these kits in the mail the other day... As well as finally getting my hands on the 34 Slammer kit... Turns out I'm surprised that it's a Snap kit via the instructions say I can... But it needs painted but no paint diagram... Wonder what's suppose to be what color???

Im still waiting on my order to show up... Im hoping in a couple days. I did hear that the kit is based on old monogram molds Also found SJR did a WHATS IN THE BOX video on it as of last night.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Cv6TOvE0Z4
