Same here. Can't vote on that 'Place'

In 1/32 the Kenny Bernstien Bud King was a Merc Lynx I still have mine. And my resto original 72 annual Vega is in that box! I had a few of the "Fiend" Duster snaptite Funny car I don't remember the Pepsi Challenger in 1/32 scale They Did do it in 1/24. I had one. Also had Wendy's on it!!

I don't even log in to my Photobucket to post them here. And I just use the links from the pic itself in photobucket. Open the album, and hover your mouse on th epic you want, See the little Gear that pops up in the top right corner of th epic your mouse cursor is on? Click on that, see the "Get Links" and click that. Choose the "IMG Codes for Forum Boards" click on that link and it will go Yellow & read "Copied" Simply "Right-Click" in the message and Choose "Paste" That will embed th epic into your message. To verify it worked you can 'Preview' before Posting the message. This way is a little easier than the one above. At least for me it is!

I think he said 17 "POUNDS" Not Dollars. He Is in England, and they do not use Dollars!

Lightbar looks like the "Street Hawk" from Revell's Caprice Police, Fire/Taxi kits. Interesting

Sadly, if you Have to have Pay-The-Bay now, I can't ever list there. I lost 2 built kits I paid for and never received. (62 Thunderbird Hardtop & 72 Road Runner) I dumped that EvilPay back system Very fast after. It closed the case on me about the time the seller closed their account on the evil Auction site. Had I sent a Postal Money Order, I would have not only either gotten my money back, or the models, But the seller would have had the chance to be Criminally charged! Learned my lesson on that deal!!

I had the Coupe in Neon Green. I think it had the convertible parts too. I have seen that Green hardtop listed a few times on that Evil Auction site at not to terrible a price.

Only Jo-Han I saw was a re-issue of th e64 Petty Belvedere. I did see a few I liked. 2 Different Vega, a Pinto. But, Most are Very recent issues/re-issues

I believe the boom from the SnapTite Tow Truck is a Holmes. The recently re-issued one. Blue on the box. Last Orange, and Originally "Captain Hook" black I like this one.

In this kit, I believe the Firestone decals are for the Wide-White Tire inserts for the Stock Hardtop!!!

I am surprised to see the "Firestone" decals for the tires still there. Thought R-M dumped all tire logos a few years ago. I still want one of these. I have both convertibles, and both 56's. Also still need to get the 57's!!

If you look closely, You can see the Heavy-set Standing guy Does look to have glasses on! Cowboy Hat & denim vest. yes would be nice if they were separate, but would have to be wire you form, or photo-etch in this scale!! And, Is the baseball cap shown on the box somewhere else??

I built the MPC kit Way back then, (Still Have it) That is an addition to the hood. Looks like a Seat back, or toolbox piece It looks Too Flat accross the hood. It should taper at the front I do not remember having to add the Cowl Induction scoop to the hood. But that Was a Long time ago!!! Monogram also offered the 79 Pace car kit. Besides scale, the differences I know about are; MPC offered the T-top, You cut the roof along marked grooves, then separated the 2 pieces. and glued a T shaped piece in to the underside of the roof. This kit also had Both an In-line 4 and the 302 V8 of the Pace car. Monogram's kit had a Sunroof like Dealer Replica's. I do not know about engine options. I thought the Monogram kit Had been re-issued. They have re-issued the 78 Vette at least twice in the past 10 years!! I have one of those!h Here are a couple pic's of my 79 Mustang;

What about the other Turbine Specific parts? Steps, Intake/Exhaust, etc? I remember my dad complained when he built this, that he wished he had built it with the Turbine, as it used fewer accessories! I started resto on it Years ago. Believe it or not, I still have the assembled Turbine engine too!

I hope they plan to re-issue all th e1/32 scale Semi Trucks from Monogram!! I have the Mack R/Tanker kit, and plan to get this one.

Considering how well the Matchbox/Hot Wheels size "Mini-Lindy" kits were it is not surprising they did the detailing they did on the1/32 kits. Though, they did Undersize Most of them!!!

Is that Airfix P51D the Monogram 'Phantom'Clear bodied kit?? Has Monogram/Revell ever re-issued that?? Was it called Phantom? or something else??

I use to display Built models at Antique car shows as Part of the club. It did not take long to start taking extra's and Cheap purchases to those shows to sell! Some days I did ok, others Nothing. But I did get the info Out there. And I had a Young kid, 17-21 ask for a 64 Comet Caliente!!! Right when Model-King was about to get that re-issued. If I had had them, I could have had a sale right then!! He owned the real car and wanted a replica./model!!! I have not shown in some time as there was a big change in club officials. Those that took over did not care for me being there. Now, I get asked back by the New officials. Just need a better set of wheels to go!! Almost had the Perfect vehicle, Retired Ambulance, but Church Disaster Relief group decided to keep it!!!

My Original built is Still an In-progress restoration from a Melt warped roof. It Will EVENTUALLY be the Open-Roadster/Convertible version!! Just getting that Toneau cover for over the rear seat made !!! (HELP!!!!) On the nose, All I did was cut out the grills and add "Lights in there. 3 per side. I made them from the sports mirrors in MPC kits at the time!! (All I did was paint the 'Light[Mirror] face silver) I should dig it out and take some pic's The roof got damaged at the Very First car show I ever displayed at (Outside) KITT was in a Jo-Han display case. That and the black color intensified the sun on the roof, thus leading to a noticeable Droop!!! Easiest fix, Cut the roof Off!!!! As far as I remember, The Winged Wheel Logo was cast in Both the Body rocker panel, and the GTA Add-on piece. I shaved them off the body and saved them!!! I am surprised the went to the trouble to mold them On the body as they gave us decals for them anyway!!!!

True, Besides, Where else are you going to find Torino & Mustang Convertibles from that era!

You do have a Re-issue, as the Original did not have ertl as part of the logo. It was issued just after ertl bought AMT from Lesney, but Before they bought MPC. Maybe a Canada only issue?? Was the box sealed? May not help, as those shrink-wrap machines are everywhere now. And you can buy the sheet plastic as Window sealing film!!!! Are the Windows Clear or Dark tint?? That will really tell. Originals had Dark Tint. To have the 'Winged Wheel" logo on the body, it Had to be issued After the Indy Pace Car GTA. I have that version of this Firebird too

OK, Those 2 are PA:MER original tooling re-issued by Lindberg. They have an Upper & Lower 2pc body assembly. The interior is cast in th eupper body half. And are slightly smaller than 1/32. Hubcap detail is Only decal/sticker! They had paper stickers back when original I had Several!!!!

Casey, I would say YES that Is the Mail-in Premium for the Avanti!! Bag Not box. Not sure what would have been the second kit with that. I was UNDER 6 at the Time, so memory..............................

I have the Ranchero too And the 63 Vette & Avanti. Would Love to get that 60 Thunderbird!! I had 4 of these Wayback as a Cereal mail in!!!!\ 2 sets of 2 kits!! 1 each of the Vette & Avanti are all I have left of them Would not be surprised if the T-Bird & Ranchero were the other 2 I had then!!

OK. I have Both Original 82 KITT and the AMT Re-issue. I Bet you have the Re-issue. Is your kit Molded in Lt gray, or Black?? Originals are black, and do not include any of the GTA pieces. Is there a Body Rub strip along the crease?? Again, Re-issue I too am curious about the announced Retro re-issue coming Will the body be massaged back to Original KITT spec's or will we just get the Last iteration of that gen Firebird body with the KITT nose piece, dash, Consol, etc. The re-issue does not have the correct tail light lens piece either. Again due to constant re-tooling for the Annuals from this kit. I can not just run and grab my AMT box KITT, but will try to dig it out latter tonight when I get into my room. Unless someone posts the pic's of it before. The announced re-issue shows the Original box art. Showing the real KITT from a Film Frame The AMT re-issue showed a built Model Only Will it be that way, or different? The AMT Ecto-1A has Different box art for the original issue. Again now showing a built model while the original showed the Actual car coming out of the Firehouse in a Film Frame. (I guess most call those Screen Grabs Now) Here are Both Box art from that evil Auvtion site. Notice the Differnce!!!

If you see AMT ANYWHERE on the parts, Instructions, Box, you have the Re-issue from 2000!!!!!!!!! Which is what I am Certain you have!!!!!!
