Yeah, Its cheaper over there too isnt it ?beein how its not an IMPORT?

Welcome aboard Tim, you are no longer a "looker", but a member! Glad to have you!

Take the body and run it under hot water upside down so that it floods thr roof from beneath, using your thumbs, push frpm the rear roof pillars towards the front pillars, trying to push the front of the roof back into its proper positon.it might help if you use the glass from the kit(old Jo Han right?) and use it to help,by running you thumbs along the runners that hold the windshield to the backlite.the a-posts should line up with the edges of the wind shield after a little while,when they do run the whole thig under cold water to set it,usethis same process acoulpe of times till it takes its original shape.make the water hot enough to where its is hot but not hot enough to burn yourself. this does work for me,but it is a trial and error type of thing,just press hard enoigh to straighten the roof pillars out. hope this helps.

Well Bill, I think we should change your name from Mr. Obssesive to MR.FANTASTIC! No matter how you do it, your work is truly MIND BLOWING!

OH yes this IS a fun place, Welcome, you are a stranger here but once(took that from a bar I used to hang out at.Thanks Tee.) Great people too,you Will like it here! OR VE VILL MAKE YOU LIKE IT!

SO! the truth is finally out! How can I get me one of them shrink machines?That is THE most remarkable thing I have ever seen in ALL my years of building models Truly AMAZING!

How cool ,what will the base size be?

Thanx guys the only ones I' seen were in the 100.00 dollar range , so 50.00 bucks sounds pretty reasonable,Sure gotta get me one,it's sharp!

Soooo,Whar ja getit? R ta jes keein em fer yaself? C'mon share a lil .PLEESE!

Ken these came Looong after my time but I sure do like em!I like em so much I've gotten 2 of them fromthe Franklin Mint in1/24 scale.one sits on my TV in my living room. I'm thankful I never had to go up against us then, I'd be downrite terrified to do it now! Semper Fi!

Iz,At thars a purty lookin car, whar d ya git it? its so purty I jes may wanna built me my first furrin car.

Well,Welcome Ken, Hope you enjoy it hear, cuz its a fun place!

Well Harpy Barfday Jarius hope you have many more!

AAAWWWWW,Gregg, it was just gettin good! name callin, rock throwin, then the ol' recess teacher gotta come out an breakit up! OH fart!

I know,Cali must be the grave yard for 69 Chargers, Why they gotta smash em allup like that? why cant they crunch up ford mustangs or some other car? 2 rare Mopars gone, for wat?

Satelite, take yer pick,68 thru 73 the thing was primered up in black so tough that you cant make out specific details from what I could tell from the rear end shots though, it coulda been a 70 on up.

Cal what color is that ? I had a 69 Nova that looked simular it was called Grecian Green , is it?

Yeah Gramps,a couple a years ago in one of the model mags a guy was printing up box covers of kits that never were like Hawaii 5-O's Garrets big Merc, Adam 12's 68 police cruiser,an stuff like that . but this is the first time Ive seem em for sale.Still it woulda been nice, Eh?

Guys read ALL the way down the discription,Its a FANTASY box its also a dirty rottin low down shame tha AMT NEVER poped that kit! these guys probable get off by yankin our chains like that!Dam them all!

Guys I'm watchin the movie grindhouse and they got a 70 challenger that has Door glass frames! anybody else check this out? I've never seen that on a challenger of any year. could this be a custom job just for the movie? DID ANY challengers have door glass frames? I know this don't havenuthin to do with models,thats why I put it under general,But I just gots to know! I figure someone can help explain this mystery(did I sound needy enough?)

Dam,Bob the paint is killer, you certainly ARE "Bob the Builder" looks really good! jus wish I could paint that good!

. Don, looks good! I once had a 69 Super B (without the 6 Pak) 440 auto, it was the same color combo as yours.But mine had these roller knobs on the radio not turn type knobs.I dont know if it was opional , but I also was fortunate enough to own a 69 Charger R/T, And it also had a roller knobs on the radio, so I'm kinda thinkin it was a standard thing. no big deal but if yer goin this far....... any way its lookin great so far, I'm really lokkin forward to the end result.

Gramps I dont know what you saw but AMT NEVER made a 57 stude golden hawk,at least not in 1/25th scale maybe in 1/18 .

WOW1 Is that how it's supposed to look? Geeze its great. guess I'd better get another one and try it again! Great build!

Guy's I just came off the E-modelcars website and saw a few things I was interested in,but when i saw the shipping charges some of the kits had listed I just thought it was a joke. I dealt with one fella frpm florida who only charged 4.50 to ship and another seller fromHAWAII! who only charged 6.00! how can a kit comin fromm tennessee cost 10.00?!! come on fellas, if yer just tryin to make money charge more for the kit itself, but 1 model kit being mailed across the U.S DOES Not COST 10.00 BUCKS! One of the sellers had a dam good idea when he said to be for real with the priceing AND shipping.He mentioned GREED would surely kill a good thing! I believe hes a wise man cause it looks almost like evil bay as for as shipping is concerned.The kit iI was lookin at was 7.89, great price for this particular kit,but 10.00 bucks to ship it its NOT a 18.00 dollar kit! even with gas to go to my LHS it wouldnt cost me 18.00bucks. If this is gona work we hafta be more for real!I send kits all over the place and not once have I paid 10.00 bucks to send anything,unless its 2 or 3 or 4 at a time! The most I've payed is 40.00 bcks and I mailed 16 kits. sure they were !/48 scale airplanes and they (the P/O) go by weight, but I didnt think I was being taken advantage of. Get withit guys and be more for real or nobodys gonna get anything out of this!Now you can call me a cheapskate or whatever but I'm talking from experience,and I know what it really costs and to me unless your leavin the COUNTRY it just shouldn't cost that much! Thats my 2Cents worth,so sue me! George53.
