  1. No photo select on PM's either????? just a black box with other media in the right corner.
  2. White Cross over Modern , HI pickup Circa 1975, Corvette 1968 -73 maybe and the 68/69 Ford F-100. Of all of those I'd take the '75 IH pickup!
  3. "No, No he didn't slam you, he didn't bump you, he didn't nudge you.... He rubbed you, and rubbin' is racin' " Nice work!
  4. Most of the time they don't turn amber (yellow). If there are then it would be likely from a SMOKERS collection. I have Auto world and match box cars that are still sealed inside and there well over 10 years old now. There still clear with no amber yellow tinge.
  5. To Most collector's The packaging was ruined when it was opened. They would rather it been completely intact with the car inside!
  6. Went to the Ollie's In Fort Wayne Indiana, And All they got were The WWII Avenger, Transit Mixer , and the Star Trek (TOS) Shuttle,
  7. Van Wert Oh: Just the Transit mixer and the WWII Avenger topedo bomber. Lima Ohio: Transit Mixer, GMC Jimmy, Grampys Vega, Drag combo, and the 1/16 Ford Thunder chicken.... Van wert employee said that the just got two cases, The Plane and the mixer. But also said they got 8 Cases of Puzzles and Monopoly games which aren't moving. She also stated that they got way to much Star Wars Figures as well!
  8. Gene Hackman, Along with his wife and dog were all found dead in their New Mexico Home On Feb 26, 2025
  9. Flyer came in the mail today, has a Model buyout on it. Sadly the local one here only got a few Transit mixer's and a WW II Torpedo bomber plane kit. Added to the non selling Nike Missle kit's
  10. A site called Bilbozodecals has police/rescue decal in 1/64, 1/43. 1/24 And 1/18
  11. And that is what I did to mine. Just switch the dash/steering wheel in the interior as well. Then make the 300 a promo type car.
  12. O.K. I had to turn my internet completely off. My cell phone internet connection don't have the issue, But I can see photo's on it. So after "rebooting " restarting the WIFI Hot spot The issue stopped.
  13. Every time I have tried to get on the forum this stupid notice pops up. To get on the forum you have to do advanced and by pass it . Same goes to view a topic same message, Sign in Same message Try and navigate the forum same freaking thing. Never had this issue with the forum before Anyone else having this stupid BS happening??
  14. Bunch of spam email about energy saving devices invented by Musk. One supposed to cut the electric bill by 90% The other supposed to be a tiny but mighty heater system The other spam e-mails cannot be listed here. As they could get me a time Out!!
  15. If my thinking is correct a '59 El Camino chassis/engine should be a natural fit for the '60 Nomad wagon.
  16. I remember about 30 or so years ago any mail that was marked with an in town address it was delivered the next day as it never left town. Then USPS decided that after a couple hundred of years doing this needed to be changed! So on to a sorting center it went. In Ohio that meant it went to Toledo , Columbus, Dayton, Cincinatti, Cleveland, Or Akron before going back to hometown. Then in order to serve customers better they closed several of those centers down to only around 3 centers in the early 2000's. Now we have the Magic of Mr.Louis DeJoy at hand.........
  17. Sadly any tooling that is in China will stay put Once in China it will never be allowed to be removed. China did this to Franklin and Danbury mint's die cast cars!
  18. Model I bought on ebay Left New Hampshire landing in Mass on the 4th Left Mass on the 5th and now is in Iowa! Completely bypassing OHIO. USPS is really taken a dive in Delivery! I guess it's just part of Louis's Idea to piss off USPS customers so the USPS can be made into a private Company like Fed Ex/UPS/DHL/AMAZON Delivery
  19. The Cuda and Nomad won't be out till near the end of the year. If things keep going the way they are the Nomad will be Closer to $50.00 on the shelf!
  20. Image Via You tube, ideal toy's 1969.
  21. The only kits at our local one is the non selling Atlantis Nike Missle kit. The have a bunch of Lousy Puzzles and board games that take 90% of the shelf space on one side of the toy isle.
  22. I'm wanting to find a set of the wheels as seen on the IH in the photo attached. I have items that I can trade for a set, so I can build a Transtar 4070 as a Ryder rental truck . I have a 4070a coming via ebay, and already have the Ryder decal set from the AMT Mack Cruise liner kit...
  23. Our wal-mart had a deal that was much to great to pass up, I bought 11 packs. These are natural casing hot dog's and usually quite pricey, Regular price was $8.97 Clearance price $1.00 each! Also found quite a bit of reduced ground beef and chicken breast. I ended up buying Ground Chuck 1/3 Lbs patties (4 LBS) $11.44 X2 One pack of 1/3 Lbs (4 LBS) $14.44 While the Tyson skinless/boneless chicken breast were about $5.00
  24. My first truck model was way back in 1973. My dad painted it while my mother put the two rigs together for Christmas 1973! Being 6 and listening to my older bro we played with them so they didn't last very long. When Round2 cloned the kit just a few years ago I Bought 20 Of them ! Both the first reissue and the rat fink copies. I decide to build an exact copy "Clone" of that Semi that was for Christmas all those years ago.
