Do you have any pics of the frame and axle mods?

Nice!

I bought one once and it went into the round file, just chalked it up as a loss. Then a couple of months later, it was like I was haunted by a nightmare, another one showed up in the mail and I didn't order it. This one's up in the attic somewhere.

After a little bit of clicking, I think this is their current site. www.rmrmodels.com By the way, anyone know why I can't copy and paste into the forums?

Nice!

Very Nice!

Very nice!

I'm a Production Controller at NAS Oceana.

I use regular bare metal foil and spray it the colors I need. The yellow stripes on this car are made from chrome foil airbrushed with Testors yellow.

Very nice!

Here ya go if you want one. http://www.aviapress.com/viewonekit.htm?AMO-72001 http://modelsua.com/T-4-Sotka-Soviet-supersonic-strategic-bomber.html http://hobbyterra.com/product_info.php?products_id=190 I have several amodel kits in my stash, but not this one.

Depends on the store. Mine won't do it, I tried to use the coupon off of the full price and they said no. Seem like everything I wanted was "on sale" even if it wasn't marked.

There was also a resin conversion set for Revell's 94-96 Impala SS to a Caprice cop car. I doubt if that place is still in business though. It came with a trunk lid, grill, hood ornament, and hub caps.

I don't transport any of mine in cases, but for the ones not in cases, I use an appropriate size box and put a couple of layers of cotton t-shirts on the bottom and around the sides. It supports the model without breaking the wheels off, they won't move or tip over in a panick stop, and the shirts won't scratch the paint. I don't let the shirts touch fragile parts like mirrors or mud flaps on big rigs.

I use 3M blue vinyl tape from auto paint supply stores.

Very nice!

Hello and welcome. Ken

Very nice!

Can't wait!

Thanks. Yea, I bought them by the case back when they were cheap and readily available.

Due to a couple of requests for some pics, here's a link to some photos of a few of my builds with a few diecast thrown in. Most of the cop cars are diecast, completely disassembled, stripped, modified and repainted. A few of my 1:18 display aircraft are in the pics too. http://s171.photobucket.com/albums/u316/kap64/my%20misc%20kits/?start=all

Thanks, I'll have to take more pics with a better camera next time I'm at the house in NC. All of my models are down there. Matter fact, I'll make a new post with some of the pics I currently have on my computer.

I used standard Testors gloss gray.I had one of the full size cars and it's hard to tell the difference in color. The hard part for me was finding the correct blue. I found a few tins of Humbrol from someone across the pond which was a close match. Here are a couple of old pics. The camera gives it more of a blue tint that it actually has.
