yea I goofed and did not read what I typed MPC original tooled the MACK DM's & Gravel Trailer The Sold the tooling to Ertl. Ertl continued to issue them placing their Loge in p-lace of the MPC logo. No other box art change

I like this too. Do wish it was a 70or 72, as Indy has a couple H/O versions of those!! Interesting seeing an H/O version of a Wagon!!! I HOPE to save up to get one of these!!!!

I built the DM 800 in that scheme MPC first offered these kits Before selling the tooling to MPC in 72 I have the Catalog showing them. The cab was molded in red for the scheme. So on those, it Was Pre-Bicentennial I do hope more of those get re-issued.

"Orange Blossom Special" was a 37 Chevy, Not 41! Meister Brau Tractor has Not been re-issued either. But, Will either get re-issued now?? They did not sell well then, so..................... A Pull Sled and other Pull tractors were planned but dropped due to sales figures of the 3 kits offered. OSB, MB & Tennesse thunder Funny car puller Was that one offered separately, or only with the LN transporter?? I have only seen the double kit myself.

I wish I could do that Pace car myself. I have the decal sheet waiting!!!! Definitely watching this one!

The 1/32 Eagle was an Ertl issue Before they purchased AMT I had one MANY years ago.. I do wish they would re-issue more of those 1/32 truck kits!! And, Yes, I would liek to see th e1/25 Transtar COE re-issued too!

I don't have a separate video card in this DELL. And not sure how to color test the monitor. Oh well.

I only have the sedan Did you think of using one of those for the front Bench?? or did it look more like the buckets you have??

Tires actually look like the Compact tires from the Annuals and promos. I have 2 61 Ranchero's a Styline and Desert "El Ranchero Grande" 1 64 Falcon Promo, and others with then, and the look the same. Rims look too large compared to the tire.

been so long since I built it!!! I don't remember having any problems. I did cut all the doors out and hinged them Plus added the steering. I do want to get the re-issue. I have a couple ideas for one!!

I like that blue one too Those "Red's" on the front are interesting Firefighter? or Police?? Sure would make a Nice Stealth Speed enforcer!!!

A Straight Side shot might do better In all 3 above, it looks like the rear wheels are too far forward, and too narrow a track for the body. I have thought about stretching the AMT 68/9 chassis to fit the Jo-Han Fury 4dr sedan body not cutting molded on detail off.

That is actually 20+ years of dust build up in it from sitting on the shelf Untouched all those years Meant to give her a Good cleaning & polishing Before taking pic's!!! Take a look at the Dart behind the truck Dust is Very visable in that!!

Interesting to see the trophy base, but NO trophy.

I see the Custom Headlight Lenses It is hard to tell, bu those red lenses look to be Custom parts too. Didn't original Promos have the 2 piece tail lights like the original kits??

Did you remove any Chrome trim?? If this was suppose to be a Pace car, It should have had a chrome stripe that ran from Windshield frame to Boot cover, Down, Accross, then back up Yellow car with that area above the chrome black. I would love to find one I have the decal sheet already.

I want one I built the Petty set Way back when !!!

Sorry for my Goof before How are these for Obsure?? Or at least ODD!! Hino S'Elega Super High Decker 1/32; and 3 different Isuzu BXD-30 Bonnet's; Sadly, this one was sold with a Chopped top! I have tried to restore it, but a couple posts are missing I am looking for a replacement body And before anyone says it is available in resin. Look at the Door location on the kit, and on the resin!! Yes, the resin is based on this, but door moved to Right side!!!

I believe they are a kit to themselves! Sure look like it! Besides, How many 1/6 scale car kits are there?? And it looks like there is ONLY One wheel per kit. You want to buy 4 separate kits to place the On a car??

Wish they had re-tooled the tail lights to include the clear red lens. But, I will Still TRY to get one or 2!!

TREK, Star Wars Battlestar Galactica (Monogram) ships, I have built a Queen Mary, and a few Military Ships My fave is the OLD Aurora USS Enterprise CVN-65 3 Ft long Wish I had gotten the motorizing kit! I know Monogram re-issued this, but mine has the Landing strip Pre-painted!! I do have a few other Military, Tanks, Jeeps, etc. I stay away from larger scales now I have a growing assortment of Leetown/Alloy Forms, Iver's Engineering, & NJ International 1/87 scale Trucks Mostly Fire Trucks!!! A few Jordan Highway Miniatures I have built one of those Monogram 187 "Big Boy" locomotives It is an Easy SnapTite kit I have the 4-6-2 Hudson in 3 Different Liveries. One Chrome Plated from the Museum Show piece collection My Big Boy is a Phantom "Chessie System" Articulated. Though Chessie Did have Large Articulated Locomotives, The Big Boy was a Union Pacific ONLY Piece!!! I have the Gundam's I built, an Entex "Mazda Wankle Rotary Engine and a Rev boxed Visible V8. Mine still had the battery box, lights, & motor I have several Estes, & Centuri Flying Rockets, And lately, I have started building and collecting PAPER Models Many of those FREE Downloads!! Can't Beat FREE!!!!

I have a few of my own builds I have undergoing Resto 76 Pacer X is one Paint was bad. I did a repaint on my 1/16 57 Chevy convert. But Nothing else. I Do dis-assemble Most built's I get. 60 & 63 F-100's & Chevy Pickups, 61 Bonneville convert, 60 Lincoln convert. Most are bought with that in mind

Wow, I have seen Trek & Star Wars Micro kits listed, but not those Planes, And they Don't look like Micro!! I like the little Touring with the Fokker I do have a question on th e Egg planes. The box art showing the Girls Is a Figure included??

OK my goof!!

I posted about the Gundam Robot kits and added a Pic! Pic showed 3 boxes, 2 different kits, and a Built for comparison. Went back 3 pages to see if thee were that many posts, but Not. I have email messages with them too
