  1. The Revell "Build and Play" kits like the Mustangs, Raptor, and Ford GT are simple enough that a child can assemble them, but respond well to a little paint and detailing if one of us old folks wants a slump-buster.
  2. Not a fan of the optional D96 stripes for 1968 anyway. Car looks great without them!
  3. I have made my own random underhood decals using images from the internet of the 1:1 decal.
  4. mime politician speeches
  5. I just sold one of these on ebay in March. It definitely has a V8, described as a "283" on the box. I know it should be a 265. I guess Revell was sloppy with details even back then.
  6. In most cases, front seats will have a separate backrest piece that will leave a visible seam when you glue the seat together. That is reason enough in my mind to require primer and paint on the seats. I cringe when I see some otherwise stellar builds on here with a big, visible seat seam.
  7. Tri-tip, mushrooms, asparagus, and a local brewski.
  8. I ASSumed that the items I ordered were in stock. I suspect they aren't. None of the hobby vendors have the particular set I ordered. This is why I asked on here. I figured someone would know if something is going on. I have emailed him three times, he has not responded to two of them.
  9. Anyone order directly from MCG recently? I placed an order near the beginning of the month, and all I can say is that Bob's service has been "Reliable" if you know what I mean. I really didn't expect that this would happen. I ordered a fret on eBay that should have what I need for my current project. I suspect that I will have to go through PayPal to get my money back from Bob.
  10. Great trade with Al (thatz4u), even though the Post Office seemed in no hurry to deliver to him . Next time, I won't use Pony Express.
  11. Sorry, I meant that the Thunderbolt kit I have was made before the street machine version was released. Not that is a magical 1949 Thunderbolt.
