  1. which of the remaining kit's interest you?
  2. AMT Jaguar XJ220 has been traded,
  3. Jaguar trade pending.
  4. Make some offer's maybe you'll have something of interest.
  5. Added a few more kits to trade.
  6. Yep they made a real one for the movie. and the Pink Hot wheels version
  7. No Ertl only made the Trucks, scout II's, Pay Hauler 350 and Farm tractor/wagon/plow. You will have to try either a resin caster or 3d printer model supplier
  8. Actually it's the Corvette from the 2023 Barbie movie. The car used in the movie was an EV Corvette. Hot wheels issued it in pink, and it looks like turquoise as well. Note the door behind the front wheel and above Chevrolet script......
  9. All ours got was The James Bond Diamonds are Forever Police car, the Polar lights Charger dragster, Ricksha junk, and wacky racer model. Only atlantas kit was the Odd ball scaled B-24.
  10. Up for trade are: AMT 2021 Dodge Charger Factory sealed or Polar Lights '69 Dodge Charger (hot wheel's) funny car dragster. 1984 MPC Mustang SVO Box is ruff, kit still in factory bag, glass has some tire burn. Molded in Canada packaged in U.S.A .. Molded in silver. AMT Jaguar XJ220, AMT '70 Corvette (molded in orange). Looking for a great dane dry goods semi trailer, Chevy sod buster kit, 76 Caprice, Re Copies of the AMT C-1500/3500 kit's one kit deal ! one dodge for kit's I'm looking for.
  11. As it states I want a copy of the Great Dane Dry goods Trailer from Ollie's. I have a sealed 2021 Dodge charger, or a open but not started '70 Corvette, Or revell Dodge ram pickup to trade. I'm on a fixed income so I can't buy the higher priced kit's such as Moebius Trailers, or rebox AMT truck's from a european maker to use for trading. BUT Then why would I trade a modern trailer kit for a reissued trailer kit that is around 50 years old??
  12. Van Wert Ohio's Ollies just has the loser non sellers . Green hornet 1'32, Mach 5 speed racer and star trek. When wal mart had the AMT kit's in mid last year they had to reduce the star trek kits to get rid of them! Seem's that Star Trek isn't a big seller around this area.
  13. With the Ex-wife 1994-1997, I didn't get many and the hobby was about nil. 1. Because in 1995 our son was born, then Feb 0f 1997 our daughter. Kids came first with me! 2. The fact she lied before we got married that she liked the hobby, only to use it as a weapon that I loved it more than I loved her, 3. I loved the children more than I did her. 4. She loved to smoke, read romance book's and Cheat! She left us for a 17 year old punk! The late wife was very supportive of the hobby, and would build when she was able to. But she had tremors in her hands most of the time. Our marriage was from 1999-2013 The ex also caused the children to be taken from our home, I fought to get them back, but because I was a single male . The state disliked me with a passion! If I got on the floor to play with my children that was wrong! If I tried to read to them That was also cutting into their play time, and If I sat and watched them play I wasn't interacting with them????
  14. still looking for these decal's
  15. First off I know the 55 parts would be more common but the are dark purple. So I'm looking for the rear fender's , step plates, and tail gate from the '57 step side 3100 Pickup.
  16. Need the orange/tan/yellow decals. If any one has one's that they don't have plans for.
  17. On either the Transtar 4070A or Transtar II It can be a hard job painting the Alternator without getting paint on other spot's. My trick is to carefully remove the Alternator, and paint it seperate then reattach it . Using a #11 hobby blade knife carefully cut the Alternator at it's attaching points (the area where the alternator is "bolted" to the bracket, Both front and back at the bracket, and then where it attaches at the bottom. with the Alternator now off the bracket ect can be paint either IH Red or any color the engine maybe painted. after the Alternator and the other part has dried reattach the Alternator then ad the belt/pulley.
  18. Yes. The drive wheel's from The Freightliner COE
  19. Odd you said that, I had an older AMT semi trailer kit which the parts were all in two bags ! The main parts in one the chrome in the other, and tires/axles were loose along with the red/yellow lights!
  20. What's with all the "extra waste" bags in some kits these day's?? The AMT Rat Fink Trailer has 5 extra un-needed bags for parts! Three contain white trailer parts, (only needs the one as all the chrome, lights, and other white parts fit into the bag that contains the roof, floor, and wall's. It don't need a bag for the axles! The axles could be bagged with the tires. I cut it down from EIGHT bags to Three! 1.all white trailer parts/chrome/light's, and rubber line in bag 1. Bag 2. tires/axles, and bag three decals! So does the Five extra plastic bags help increase the price?? I know it increases the amount of plastic waste going to the landfill's! Also USPS lost my AEP Electric bill! They don't know what happened to it. It's a good thing I have an online account with AEP So I know what the bill charges are.
  21. Ford U.S Mail truck/Trailer had the wheels.
  22. Sorry it's not the best photo since I am at this time limited to the laptop's camera... But here are a few of my soda machines. Plus three that I made from evergreen plastic sheets..
  23. Played Hutch in the series, and recorded the one hit wonder Don't give up on us baby.... He was just 80 years young
