gtx6970

An A990 is /was a Sedan only. Imo...would be a better seller than the 2 door hardtop

Thing is,,,, at one time ,the original issue of this kit brought huge money. So IMO a collector will want the original issue and only the original issue. So chances are thats the only way it would sell for anything close to $129. This one and the Pontiac club-de-mer were highly sought after by collectors. I've got a couple of the re-issues from a few years ago ( sorry not for sale at this time )

Very nice build. This is one kit on my very short list to do ..probably be this winter. I plan to do it in the original ice blue

Mopar had there ' recomended ' color combinations. But it didnt take a whole lot of pursuasion to get most any color combo. I know of a 1970 Challenger thats sand pebble beige ( a 'very' light tan ) it has a red painted roof and a red interior

I am watching that kit on ebay,,and its already over $100 ,,,WAYYYYYYY to rich for my pocket

Not sure I follow. This kit shares nothing in common with the original issue MPC 1970 Challenger kit annual ,,,and no the body is not the same . As a side note,,,,, the body in the Soapy Sales kit is not the same as the one in the Original Color Me Gone kit either

I'll just turn the light out and go do something else. Sometimes I come right back the model bench,,,sometimes its months later

Real R code Hemi challenger convetible ?

I used a Rattle can tractor color from Tractor Supply I would have to find the can to ck the name or number on the can

Hemi Cuda convertibles have been deep into 7 figures for many years now. And I know of quite a few that get driven on a regular basis ,, One guy I know has a 1970 Hemi Cuda vert as well as a 1970 Hemi Challenger vert,,he takes them both on drives quite often so,,,, not all of them are garage queens

They look fine on my PC, and I am using Internet explorer Steve,PM sent

Steve, It looks amazing ( as I expected ) Glad to be able to help with the wheels. Looks like they went to a good home. And the '58 Sunliner conv body saved my builtup . I have been looking for a clean builder 61 Ford for myself . But unlike you,,,,,,,,, I want the roof-less version.

Yes, its undersized . A Mopar 7.25 rear axle has a removable rear cover ( similar to a Dana ) Only the 8.75 has the solid hsg as shown

An extremely nice , unpainted, uncustomized , clean 1960 Lincoln convertible builtup . I already have 2 others but condition wise this one beats them both hands down Now, If I can just find a 1959 thats just as nice , I would be a happy camper. The box is an original a good friend of mine gave me that I will use as wall art

Looking good so far

I've built a few of the Lindberg 1964 Dodges with no complaints. My daughter has done both the Polar lights 65 Dodge and the snap kit 1966 Batmobile , and I dont think either one was any real problem

I cant upload pictures any more to the server, cant even use an image link to post them ( from ebay as an example ) But havent tried using my photobucket pics yet And before when I opened a thread I had viewed before it took me directly to where I last visited,,now it takes me to the begining of the thread ,regardless if I had looked at it before or not

Check me if I'm wrong here, but weren't/aren't parts such as hood latch striker plates (indeed the latch itself) and hood hinges originally cadmium-plated? Art Depends entirely the car / model being replicated. I think most GM stuff is / was a dark grey phosphate . Mopars are/were a dark brownish red colored zink on the hood latch stuff and the trunk latch stuf is clear zinc.

Gonna stop by my local LHS next week and see if they have the 65 Plymouth and the Del Rio wagon ,,I want at least one of each. Got big plans for the Del Rio

I have an older issue of the 67 Charger ,,,I think its molded in black???? . I've had it for over 20 years and never did anything with it,,,so its not likely I wil add any new release of the same car.

Was over at a friends place this morning and he gave me this. A 1936 Ford kit he bought new i,,,he thinks about 1963 or so Its just parts , decals and instructions,,( no actual car.) I will throw the pieces in the parts box and use the box for wall art PS, Since the board change why cant I upload pictures from my files .? All I get is a message saying , with no explanation as the reason of problem ' There was a problem uploading the file. ' I cant even use an external image link ( such as from Ebay )

Many thanks Mark, I figured there had to be a difference why the re-isues were so cheap compard to the original issues I will avoid the re-issue and just keep an eye out for an original issue then for a decent price .

Is there any difference between the original issue as opposed to any of the more recent issues ? If so, what are they . Does it still have the 1959 model year on the license plate like the original ? My only concern is once built OE stock can it be told from the original ?
