  1. No radio Just lights and loud engine noise.( that mine no longer has).....
  2. Well didn't they also have mustangs/camaro's ,66 Impala,62 Impala, Amt 1/25 slot car's even F-150's and dodge pickup's plus many more? But I did not see any 94-96 Impala's or 91 Caprices! Also the 94-96 Impala was issued Four time's , Snap, street burner, Donk and low rider.
  3. Four door kit's don't really sell? Funny that the Revell '91 caprice sold as a Police car, Taxi/Fire chiefs car, Revell issued the 94-96 Impala as well. Then there is Lindberg with their Ford Crown vic and dodge Charger police cruisers. Even revell Issued the crown Vic, and I forgot the '05 Impala cop cruiser.
  4. As I used the chassis and interior of the T-bird on the '71 Cyclone, and not wasting either the T-bird body or racing chassis/decals I made a '71 #21 T-bird
  5. Found a third one at wal-mart, tore it down to repaint and to add an interior and clear glass. Picture 1. as it comes, #2 inside cab/bed, #3 inside chassis with speaker and wires( wires already cut away from headlights at this point). Picture 4. process of removing speaker holding area and cab screw down towers. Picture 5. glass removed along with mirrors and bumpers. Picture 6. Sepration of the "glass" and windshield wiper area. Picture 7. showing the wiper area where it belongs.
  6. Both are not finished yet.
  7. Thanks for the input on this thread, But even though it won't be factory stock I did manage to get the 71 T-Bird chassis and interior to work for the cyclone. The T-Bird will go on to be used on the race car chassis along with the race car decals. And I did find out that a T-Bird was used for racing in '70 (see pic.)
  8. Need to know if all the chassis and interior parts from the AMT '71 T-Bird would work on the Donnie Allison '71 Cyclone? If so I'd be like to trade the racing parts for the stock parts from the T-Bird kit.
  9. A.J. Simmons 57 Chevy and then Camaro Riptide corvette/ Face's vette from the A-Team Oliver Wendel Douglas"s Car Major Nelsons Pontiac GTO Bewiched -Chevrolets Brady bunch Wagon Baretta's camaro's Dragnet Cars The untouchables Crime story verious 50's and 60's cars
  10. I found yet another 2012 Siverado at Wal-Mart. I took it apart, repainted the body, now it wait's for it's donor interior.
  11. Great trade with Paul Gardner, He had the '60 Chevy pickup parts and 67 Impala parts I needed.
  12. A verity shop called Bob's Bargin barn (second hand furniture and such Found and bought a Brooklyn collectors guild 1996 Oldsmobile Aurora. Still in its box (the box had seen better days) Bought it for $6.00, and added it to my model collection!
  13. Years ago back in 1995 or so I bought a new Revell 1/24 Ford areo maxx ( sadly it got destroyed by my ex-wife. But the biggest problem was that the tires were unuseable from the start as they cracked and crumbled apart. I would like to have a copy of this truck again but they are hard to find or not in my price range. Did any one else have this issue with this or other "soft" tired kit's???????
  14. Trade done with Vince Nelson(vintagedragcrazy) Thank you to Vince for your help. Hope to do more deals with you. Your a top noch trader for sure!!!!
  15. well this is depressing as heck, I'm lucky that I can get a kit or two a month. If they were outlawed I'd have to rebuild everything I have just to be able to build.
  16. I think most of the "other supply's" such as paint would still be out there as would xecto knives , self healing pads vices ect. maybe even some glues that could work with the plastic kit. The idea of models no longer being produced wouldn't effect as many people. As the die cast market would still be popping out cars and trucks (i.E. Jadea toys M2 machines ect.)
  17. the only kit in my stash is unopened first issue of the Enterprise 1701-C. And i have two cars coming in a trade. They will be built but not the Enterprise 1701-C So I don't have a stash otherwise, I only get one or two kits a month and they get built. So i guess I'd have to get kits from the underground market. I do however have over 300 cars and trucks on shelves built!
  18. I didn't do much but cut the area down behind the seats, then cut the interior back. Glued the back wall behind the front seats, I should have altered the door panels a little to meet the doors inside better. Also you have to remove the screw posts and speaker holding area on the chassis plate. Not to mention cutting the windshield wiper area away from the black windshield, and glue it to the body.
  19. Look for Them under the name of Adventure wheels pull back racers
  20. I bought this at wal-mart for just over $6.00.. I used a revell '99 silverado for the interior,and made the clear window's Looks much better now.
  21. It was a Prototype pickup so probably less then 4 were ever made by the company.
  22. were you thinking of this?
  23. Got the my last 1931 Cadillac of the 3 '31 Cadillac's made, It's the Cadillac Town Brougham , I Won it on ebay for $16.30 (not built and in it's box still. It will be joining the other two "31 that I built very soon( when I build it that is)!!!!
