  1. No Problem have fun with the build, I seen that car last summer at one of their events and it's pretty cool
  2. Google is your friend for stuff like that, 1 quick search here's the package tray and a pic of the brace behind the seat back
  3. pretty cool I'm guessing a fan could scratch build one pretty easy just lots of basic shapes
  4. great project and progress, I remember those fondly I've had a dozen or so of them years ago in various trim levels everything from the basic s6 with paisley interior to the sportier R/T and Road Runner those 360s were pretty slow, Haven't seen a decent one in years, besides the fender rust the unibodies rotted out right at the firewall
  5. wouldn't spend a dime for either one
  6. There's also the AMT versions which may be repackaged Aoshima but I don't honestly know
  7. just for the heck of it here are several resin options HERE I've never bought from him so can't say anything else about them
  8. two that come to mind is the 70's Dodge trucks which are plain steel style and the current Mount n Goat has 8 lug wagon wheels for some reason
  9. Thanks for the info, not sure how I missed the 3 window 5 window difference, gotta start paying attention
  10. nice looking kit that I missed, is this issue the same but with extra stuff ??
  11. Revell 25th scale, Hot Wheels and Johnny Lightning as well, kinda amazing neither of them ( Two Lane or AG) or both was released in plastic it is the same car after all
  12. Casey beat me by a couple minutes, I'd check Greyhound bus, I've looked into having VW stuff shipped from the west coast and its considerably cheaper
  13. MPC made several of the quad headlight models I don't think any of them have been issued in many years so its secondary market
  14. I noticed the Lund sun visor right away, Lund went out of business years ago and the XJ ones are getting hard to come by, in fact I buy almost every one that gets to the local pick a part yard and turn them into hobby dollars
  15. big fan of JCR myself in fact still have the rear bumper that was intended for the white one sitting here un welded still, can't speak for the new grands but the ZJ and WJ isn't too horrible to wheel in with V-8 power and comfy interior and when the front axle stuff breaks just replace with XJ stuff, a lot of horrible plastic body trim that really holds water and rots em out bad I 2nd the NAXJA, great site and the headliner was perfect in the white 2000 the other dozen or so that's come and gone well that's another story
  16. my Jeeps were fun also, recently sold this one, my son's and myself have owned a fleet of them and the stories I could tell LOL
  17. we've owned over 100 cars throughout the years so hard to choose just 1 most reliable wallet friendly was the Geo Prizim (Corolla) the Civic or one of the CR-Vs which we still own 1 most fun was one of the Road Runners or Chargers probably the 68 RR that would run mid 10s though exhaust not fast by todays standards but still fun least favorite wallet unfriendly were the Town & Country minivan, Dakota quad and the Ram 2500 quad diesel, all 3 of them cured me of brand loyalty toward Chrysler products
  18. All of this plus modern wheels and tires
  19. not much left here picked up the Beetle Bus, left a couple late model Camaros, a tank and a ship for someone else
  20. That would be a cool build the bear could be sourced from G scale train stuff check these out
  21. yup its Spotlight Hobbies now, I've bought a couple hundreds kits at least from them throughout the years when we used to have big shows here in Toledo
  22. thinking about it a few minutes the 64 GTO same thing a later strret machine version and there were a few later 3n1s 79 Camaro and 70 Chevelle come to mind
  23. there was also the Challenger street machine 2n1 after the Challenger T/A version and the Buick GSX first GSX then street machine, but funny they did the 71 Cuda as separate releases first the shaker hood orange car then the street machine twin scoop hood black car
  24. several people have cast the Magnum NASCAR bodies, maybe start with the Air Trax 79 Cordoba and back date it
