  1. Open Range.
  2. The Johan Cadillac V16 Town Car. had the driver roof insert with the kit, IIRC.
  3. You can find the originals for fairly reasonable prices considering the age of the kit, I bought a couple on ebay for between $35 and 45 dollars. These were unbuilt in box. The decals were aged. Not cheap, but it is the nicest '34 in kit form IMO. You can get builder quality started kits for $35 or less. Of course, there are a bunch of people with ridiculous BIN prices on them, but they don't seem to sell. The lime green "Early Iron" series issue seems to bring bigger $$$ these days. I would love to see a new kit of the '34 to the standard of the Revell '32 fords and '29 A, but I doubt that will happen.
  4. Super cool! I use to love to go to the tractor pulls when I was a kid!
  5. That is a museum quality build! Less of a model and more a work of art!
  6. It would be a toss up between Barcelona (1994), which I walked out of and Nine (2009). My wife dragged me to that one and I fell asleep.
  7. Here is my list: Not in any order: Revell 1932 Fords Amt 1932 Fords Revell 1929 Fords AMT Double Dragster AMT 1957 Chevy Revell new tool Tri-5 Chevys Monogram 1930 Fords Monogram 1/24 Muscle Car Series Monogram 1929 Ford Pickup Amt 1955 Chevy Sedan/Nomad
  8. Nice! Great upgrades! love it!
  9. Another nice project here! Keep it up! One of my cousins bought a 1985 442 new and another bought the 1987 version. Super nice cars at the time.
  10. Nice job!
  11. Great job! Nice color combo.
  12. That's really nice! Great stance and cool engine!
  13. Nice job! I like the unique color and the wheels!
  14. What do they ask for them? At Ollies prices, they are a good deal, but once a seller starts jacking the price back up, how is the buyer getting any better deal than if they just bought them on Ebay or Amazon, so why would they buy them? The trucks are $20 plus tax, if the seller is trying to make a profit they would have to ask at least $30 plus postage and even then, It really wouldn't pay to do this. I guess if they sat on them and the kit got "hard to find" and you could get double or more what they paid it would start to be worth it, but you would have to store them until then (maybe years)......I don't get it.
  15. I just got back from the Airport Road, Allentown, Pa store and they had everything that has been mentioned, '62 Tbird, Gremlin, Hurst Olds, '55 Corvette, Diamond Reo, KW CO, International, big rig trailers etc. Looks like they just put them out, nearly full cases. I got a Hurst Olds, a Diamond Reo and a KW. Might go back and get a Gremlin and another Hurst olds tomorrow, if they aren't all gone by then. This pile won't last, the vultures will pick it clean within days.
  16. Beautiful work! I like everything about it!
  17. Outstanding model! Excellent design, well thought out and fantastic execution!
  18. FWIW, I always thought the engine in the awb Chevelle and Nova looked small for a "big block". At least the heads do. If I was building either one, I would rob a better engine from something else. Amt '67 Chevelle or Baldwin Camaro come to mind.....Or any other BB that looks like a BB......
  19. Super job on a very difficult kit!
  20. Wow! that is super nice! Great work! Love those C-10s!
  21. Another all time favorite, may have been done earlier.......I didn't check. “Alright, alright, alright!” “George Washington was in a cult, and that cult was into aliens, man.” Yeah, well, listen. You ought to ditch the two geeks you're in the car with now and get in with us. But that's alright, we'll worry about that later. I will see you there. All right?
  22. Just watched it again too, Tombstone one of my favorites!
  23. Really cool car! Love the Pontiac motor! Great start on the model too!
  24. I was at the Trexlertown, Pa store yesterday and it was pretty picked, but they did have the new issue Revell '71 GTX. 3 or 4 on the shelves. That's one of the newest issue kits I have seen at any of the ones I go to.
