  2. wouldnt it have been cheeper to use the mpc 70 supper bee ( $13.00 Vs $21.00) or is the RR frame different ? just wondering ive been kicken around the idea of doing this to a 63 plymouth & 62 dart ?if the RR frame is closer isnt the new 69 gtx the same ? its only $14.00?or is the amount of work just the same? and you used what was lying around?thanks mike.and your RR is lookin great - keep up the good work.

NO they just got a good deal on them and when their over stocked they sell them cheep to keep from paying storage fees just like right now in store linberg ramcharger car is $14.00 but mavric car is $9.00 they just have too meney of them-or the round 2 models like out cast,fire truck,66 nova pro street,55 chevy cameo,62 buick all $9.00 just depends on whats sellin and whats not?if they dont get rid of them in store theyll chang price on internet to get rid of them-no fear i bought the last of the novas friday and while i was geting them some one elis bought 30 of the outcasts & fire trucks.so i dought thous will ever get cheeper on internet.they also got some dicast models they usally sell for $18.00 on sell for $3.99 right now they had a few truck lods of them on monday now they only have 2 styles left and only about 20 each of them.i love this place go their at lest 2 times a week so i dont miss out on oop kits or $5.00 parts kits ha ha!good thing its in walking distance ea!lol mike
