Ah yes, that might be the difference. The ones I've seen weren't factory sealed but all the bags inside were unopened.

It fits. The hoods are interchangeable, too. I have previously built a 79 F-150 from a 77 F-350 kit and a phantom 77 Bronco.

I have a Model King-boxed 69 GTO funny car and a buddy of mine has the later Round 2 issued kit and both had the same slicks in them: one Goodyear, one Racemaster. I have a feeling someone mis-matched the mold inserts.

That is actually Argentine pesos, which would be about €86.

Geological engineering trainee. Which means I did all my schooling but have to wait a few more months for my Professional designation.

Hmm, I think you may have overpaid a touch! That kit averages around $50-60 these days. I managed to grab one for $30 that had been started slightly.

In communication with Scale Equipment Ltd to have this cast. They also do the sand rail and boat from the Revell sets; stay tuned!

I agree with Darrin; I love a lot of the subjects MPC produced. Sometimes the kits aren't up to modern standards but the subjects are what is the best.

MPC squarebody Chevy pickups. I have almost all of the issues.

Cruise as Shelby? Seriously?

Our show doesn't even have a box stock category, so no worries there!

A quick look on Yellowpages.ca shows lots of hobby shops in the Vancouver area, in addition to Michael's.

*shakes the Tower Hobbies magic 8-ball* Future is cloudy, possibly late January 2014...

As a warning, however, the Lonestar's initial instructions were absolute garbage. The subsequent Hudson and Chrysler 300 instructions are great. If you pick up a Lonestar do yourself a favour and download the Revell Germany instructions from their website.

Or you could, y'know, buy directly from Pegasus.

I believe Blue Oval Resin Works had a whole bunch of resin items for this body style truck, including all the different grilles, corrected 8' bed, a 6.5' bed, crew cab, visors, etc etc. No idea if he is still producing these, however.

Not sure if this helps, but I am using Google Chrome with Adblock Plus version 1.6.1 and I don't see any ads.

One ad with a SASE and one with only a mailing address? How old are these?

Visual aids, maybe? Here are all the parts that make up the Odyssey, with two-part hard plastic tires. The only part I am missing appears to be the steering column, but I can make something up pretty easy. It is pretty much a snap-fit. The moment I found out about this kit, I had to have one. I have fond memories of riding around with my uncle on his late-model Odyssey (with full roll cage and Big Red wheels) on the frozen river amongst ice fishing shacks.

Looks like a Mustang AND fits with Ford's corporate design ethic. I like it.

I recently acquired one of my grail kits, the Revell Ridge Runner set with a Ford Courier, trailer, and early-model Honda Odyssey FL250 ATV. I'm excited to build the Odyssey and trailer for use with another tow vehicle, but before I build it I was wondering if there are any resin casters that would be interested in adding the Odyssey (and maybe trailer?) to their inventory? I would ship the parts to you for you to make the molds and afterwards you would ship the original parts back. I might also be interested in a casting or two. Any takers?

The AMT (ex-MPC) engine is pretty good for a representation of a 351M. The only better example you'll find is either the AMT 79 Bronco or the AMT Econoline van (most recently reissued as the Phantom).

In which section of Michaels does one find flocking? I've looked through my local store many times and can't seem to find any...

"...and for the first time an independant rear suspension." This author seems to have forgotten about the 1999-2004 SVT Cobra Mustangs...
