I have always like the lindberg kits from the 90's and Highway right about the lindberg police Charger kits, I have built six of them so far, and there with out a doubt a very nice kit.

Well I can start taking part in this CBP now, the 71 charger is here now, and when I figure about my plans for the 68 roadrunner I will start on it soon, plus I have a lindberg charger super bee on the way as well. My plan is to make the charger from the show Burn Notice, whcih is a 73 charger, so I need to makes some changes, side windows, fill in the door vents, and change the front grill and the taillight panel. For that I think I know a way to do that some what easy, decals Here is the the kit Here is the body with the the new lines cuts I need to make

G- thanks, thats what I did, well I did the gunmetal part. I know I said i was not going to start another build for this CBP intell some one on here gets one finished

Well looks like I will cross doing the Eleanor kit off the want to do list, I did a little research and found the transkit that was available for awhile, but with the $100 price tag, little more then i want to spend

I have thought about doing some F1 builds, I just need to take the time and learn more about F1

And all because I called my first car ugly , I should of just said biggest POS instead

Double - yes I had the same problem on the 10, really the only other was is to go with smaller tires to help, but then it may not look right with smaller tires either

I am all for supporting my LHS, more then half of the good LHS here are own by the same person, and on alot of kits the dollar amount difference from them and online is about $ 10 and up, not to mention the drive which for me is 20 miles. So its all around cheaper to for me to order online. Now I do buy some things from them, but kits most times is not one them. Take the lonestar kit, my LHS is selling it for $80 , I got mine from modelexpress for around $65. So after taxes thats a savings of about $20-25 I would love to see Italeri reissue both of the Volvo kits (Vn 780/ vn 670)

If my hobby budget was a little bigger I would do truck kits more, but its not so thats why I do them once in a while right now.

So highway how do you know that ? :lol: :lol:

Wow thats kinda of harsh ,"wasting everyones time", really how am I wasting peoples time?, just because I may like a subject doe not mean everyone else will, so thats why I am asking what people think, to get ideas . So you are now speaking for all the members on this forum now?, would it make you happy if I delete this thread ? Just wow is all I can say to what you said

If you primer and then use the right base coat you should not have to worrie about bleed thru . I am wanting to get one of these kits now.

I agree with Rick, do a clone of it. On topic, I won the bid on one more mustang kit, so now I have two more on their way to me soon Edit- what color did you guys use on the bullitt wheels?

That would good use for cars and small trucks as well, I like that. I know I am one of the few, but I do want to build some euro trucks

Well it was more of an POS then ugly, but remember this, to me as an 18 year old, with this big huge 60's era car, it wasnt the best looking car .

Yes it was very ugly and a POS, I think it was like a 60's Mercury

Well not saying that this is when but going by what tower hobbies( plastic models) has listed for the release date it will be in June .

Yes I agree that you need a great driver to win, i think part of why I have not got into F1, is growing up with NASCAR and the lack of technology used in the race cars. I have to admitt this years NASCAR season was so much better with have so many different winners and first time winners, VS F1 were you had Sebatian Vettel winning almost every race. The team that spent the most money won, I will agree and saying that Sebatian Vettel is one heck of a race car driver, and I am not trying to take anything away from him. I have tried to watch F1 this year, and did a few times, but having a 3 month old makes it hard to stay up that late or early to watch the race's, and yes I could of DVR them, but never would have had the time to watch them. Never been an open wheel fan really is i think another reason. But I do love watching 24 hour race's, the DTM/ and GT series though

Highway, sorry to hear that my friend, I wish you luck, I think this CBP will pick up again when the new prostar and trailer come out , I know i will be getting one of each right away.

melt down all the rest of the kit and make one giant plastic ball , just kidding, find the rest a good home

ok highway, to be honest F1 seems like the billionaire club of racing, who has the most billions will win , it seems like its more about the car then the driver, but that's just me, and my lack of knowing a lot about F1.

I am looking forward to seeing what you do with this one I like the fiat 500's abarth's new and old, I have been really wanting to get a kit of the new one for awhile now, I already have plans for what i am going to do with it, and colors.

I think this thread died all the sudden

well I dont think my first car is in kit form, but my second car is, or close to it,

well google 2009 bullitt and you see them
