  1. Is there anyone who cast the front end part for a 1/25 '87/88 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme??? ( grill/headlights/front bumper)
  2. I have not seen any builds of Revell's '85 Oldsmobile 442/FE3-X kit on the forum so Here is one that I've built. I decided to do an olds 350 rocket tribute under the hood. This is just a plain Cutlass Supreme.
  3. Tried to strip with paint thinner, I wasn't Going to even try to take it apart Mainly because the body and chassis are heat pined together, Most likely That was done by Jo Han.
  4. Really They need to recapture the "Cardiac Kids" Type of team they had in the late early 80's They need a QB like B.Sipe or B.Kozar By his stat's Bernie was a better QB then J. Montana!
  5. Hey Greg, Chevrolet stopped using the X frame The last production year would be 1964 as the 65's went back to the standard box frame.
  6. The Brown's need These badly! A couch like Marty That lead them to the playoffs , A Better Offenceive line ,And Recevers Not to mention a better draft policy to Draft what would actually help the team. They also need a QB that's a veteran of the NFL For at least 5 years!
  7. I did a little correcting of the body's Over Chrome use. I tried to remove the silver paint that was used on it, But it wouldn't budge. So I just painted red over the area's that needed to be body color. Even though the red color don't match it still look better than with having to much silver Chrome. Pictures are of what I painted over and before the re-paint.
  8. I just took these Pictures of the '58 Oldsmobile I bought today.
  9. I just Bought a 1/25 '58 Oldsmobile 98 Holiday Four door Curbside with Interior (Jo-Han) for a nice price of $16.50 ( locally Bought)
  10. Even though this M41 Would not be allowed to be used, As it was designed and built just after WWII. I could not resits on making it for Saunders Girls University High School.
  11. Just finished The Panther tank used by Kuromorine Girls high school ( Girls Und Panzer)
  12. Just got the Jada 1/24 International Durastar 4400 roll back. The two wagons are revell kits which work with it very nicely. The only thing I wish jada would of done was making the front wheels turn right and left.
  13. Yes it WAS the first gear Speedway fire truck, That is WAS.
  14. Jada die cast makes 1/24 durastar roll backs, They can be found on ebay, Got one there for 34.90 total cost, and still factory sealed! Pictures of same one I bought off the net
  15. Project is shelved untill I get the needed parts to finish it. The frame came from the Revell Peterbilt along with the fuel tanks, and the Frame was shortened so it isn't as long as the was. The Durastar cab was from a Speedway Gas station Firetruck.
  16. I do when I was young we seen a load of them going through Van Wert Ohio (early to mid 1970's But those were painted Orange. My Dad who worked at Harvester in Ft.Wayne said they were made for the oil fields in the middle east.
  17. GM 's Idea makes the truck look like Ford's. Pontiac basically made a reboot of the Edsel Which actually looked better than the fore mentioned Edsel. Chevrolet fails with the '19 pickup though!
  18. The Pepper shaker kit is almost the same as the Monogram 1/24 57 chevy, except in 1/25 scale. Compared these different copies of the 57 kit's Monogram Vs Pepper shaker Vs Pro shop copy (yellow car on box) Vs Revell' Convertible and sedan.
  19. IMHO the AMT/ERTL Pro Shop (yellow car on box) Is one of the nicest 57 Chevy kit's to be made. Beware there are 2 different Pro shop 57 Chevrolet's , The very detailed kits and the pre -painted (pepper shaker) one. dEbay 57 Proshop chevy.htm
  20. Please No!!!! It looks to much like a FORD!!!!!!!!!!
  21. After Christmas is over I'll begin to work on two more tanks from this series. Ooarai Girls High School team Turtles 38(t) Hetzer conversion, And a Panther tank from Kuromorimine Girls High School
  22. Anyone cast a flat hood for a 66/67 Pontiac GTO and 68/69 Pontiac GTO? Would like to convert a revell 66 GTO into a Tempest or Le Mans As well as doing the same to a 68/69 GTO kit.
  23. t.m.resin also make them and are sold on ebay. I have bought copies of his 63 Nova wagon and 66 Impala wagon Both were nice casting's to work with.
