  1. Ive seen the issue before and its been hashed here before. Myself, I have a built original issue 71 Duster in the case. and an unbuilt 72 Duster to build. So all the current 71 Dusters I have will be old prostock replicas. Will I change the / alter the C pillar? Not likely Pictures are . Lime green MPC 1972 Duster in the fore ground All white the Current 71 Demon in the center White / primer is the current 71 Duster in the rear
  2. How about a 70-71 Dodge Dart Otherwise I Cant say Ive really got much on my radar . except maybe an early Dodge Truck The 68 Coronet and Demon are 2 I never expected to see again. So Im good A 67 Cougar might catch my interest though as I used to own one If none of the above materialize. Im good. I have MORE than enough to keep me busy till the end of my days.
  3. Got the 3 I bought off ebay this afternoon. Costs me about $20 over the Hobbylinc order I had,,,,which I cancelled But I have them
  4. Well, I couldn't take it. But 3 of them off ebay last nite . $34 ea When I was in my local hobbyshop. They had the 68 Coronet rt verts $45 plus tax So I figured the Demons would be similar $$$ So just said heck with it and did the BIN on ebay https://www.ebay.com/itm/325988760606?
  5. No idea. at least 2 of the sellers have had a few dozen . All at $29.99 plus postage I stopped by my local hobbyshop today and asked about them and they havent had a single one I'm just going to wait for my Hobbylinc order.
  6. Ive got 3 of them on order at Hobbylinc. No word on when they ship yet But there have been dozens sold on ebay the past few weeks . Some sellers even have 2nd round sales
  7. Agreed, Outside of maybe a couple dozen modern kits I want to do . Old annuals makes up probably 70-80 percent ( or more ) of my build plans the next few years. Mostly quick simple rebuilds and in the case they go.
  8. I bought 2 of them at $49 each last week on ebay. But the order got canceled on me earlier this week . I still have 3 of them on backorder via Hobbylink. Im going to keep watch on ebay . otherwise , I guess at this point , I'll get them when I get them.
  9. pm me address and its yours
  10. Well, I just got notified the 2 I ordered via ebay have been cancelled SO , back on the wait list I go
  11. I have plans to build one later But it will be a convertible. Im thinking cut it right behind or in the rear door seam and bring the ars end up just a touch I already have the hubcaps I need to replicate this car
  12. Give me a bit. I should have them As at least one of mine will be a pro stock car Do you just need the 340 decal. Or the entire sheet?
  13. I got it. Pm me address and I'll drop it in the mail this weekend
  14. I'll look later today or tomorrow morning. I should have them Are these the hemi only issue
  15. I used to own a Ford Contour SVT. That car was a BLAST to drive with its V6 and a 5spd Im not a ford guy at heart so I didnt keep it more than about 6 months . Buit it was sure fun while I had it.
  16. Agreed, Once the demand falls off I will probably get a couple more. I have a couple Pro Stock versions I want to build as well as a replica of my old car. And I think the 68 Coronet hardtop will be just as much in demand.,,,,if not more so.
  17. I talked to the counter guy at a local hobby shop. He has them ordered . But as of last week, no release date when he gets them. And based on other stuff he has, Im thinking they will be in the upper $30s price range ea. Hobbylink still shows not avail I bought 2 of them off ebay , just to be safe. I've missed out on a couple kits the past few years because I waited,,,,I wasn't taking the chance with these.
  18. These ? https://www.ebay.com/itm/305350751192? These were the only ones I found avail. Found several others but were ALL sold out almost instantly.
  19. Having recently retired from the day to day work force. I've decided to do some modeling projects that have boxed away for several years. 1st up is a replica of a friend's car. I started long ago. Petty blue 440 six barrel Superbird. Johan body and interior tub. Amt chassis. Parts box drivetrain for multiple cars ( still need to find some pieces I had for it. ) Spent the day today polishing imperfections from paint that's at least 10 years old. Long way from perfect But I can live with it.
  20. IMO the hood stripes work if its a light color. White, yellow , butterscotch or maybe a light green, On a darker color,,,not so much. I much prefer a body color hood . The wing I could live with,,,or without
  21. Thanks all. I just put 3 of them on pre0order via Hobbylink I have an original I started years ago but broke the tail light bars on one side so it got shelved. I used to own a GB5 blue 1971 Demon 340 and want to build a replica of the car
  22. I would be in for a 70 Cougar. the rest, Not so much
  23. Ok, Thanks . I feel better now I want 2 maybe 3 of them myself
