  1. I would just like to be able to delete pictures Ive uploaded here. Some are in threads years old. Most others are in trade threads . Some Ive inadvertently uploaded multiple times. either way its makes it horrible to wade thru to find the one I want. So much I'll avoid uploading pictures here at all costs anymore
  2. And once posted here It cant be deleted by the one who posted it either .
  3. Search ebay. Someone is 3d printing a lot of the old hood and fender ornaments
  4. Them boys got much bigger knads than I ever dreamed of having. But I love to watch it
  5. Same here. I have 3 and in reality. Could easily use 2 more.
  6. I don't think I've bought a model kit in over a year, maybe closer to 2 years now. And in all honesty. I dont have much desire to buy either. Ive actually sold close to or even over 100 kits , both builders and unbuilts. And this trend will most likely continue. My newest garage toy will take my free time for a while Retirement is just under a year away. And I hope to get back into building some models afterwards . But I honestly cant say that I have the drive for them like I did in years passed
  7. Two very nice examples of one of the very best Ford ever produced. Beautiful cars they were / are
  8. Subject matter..period Imo. Anything else is secondary. Cost is a factor. But if the subject matter interests me. I will pay yp to own it.
  9. Depends entirely on just how hungry you are and if anything else is avail. There are Micky D's in nearly every street corner. But if they were days apart and you were hungry...that $50 dollar cheesburger would taste pretty good. My point is. Sealed 1970 Challenger kits are NOT on every street corner. And someone...somewhere wants one. Seller just has to find him. Like I said....if one doesnt like the price...why bitch about it. Simply move on and enjoy what you do find. And btw...that some one who will pay that.....is NOT me. I've had my days where i had shelves stacked with big money unbuilt kits. I sold them all and moved on to something else that i enjoyed. And for what its worth. I recently sold some builtups ...had 1 ea. (Not here btw ) MPC 1970 and 71 challengers. 1970 and 71 Cudas . All four sold in minutes for almost $375. By some standards they were only worth maybe $20 -30 ea. The guy didn't have them . I did. ...he wanted them and could afford them. He now owns them.
  10. Why.? Just because someone can and is willing to pay up to get something THEY want with THERE money. They have to be labled as crazy or insane etc.etc . I dont get it. If you don't like the price. No one is holding a gun to your head to buy. Move on and enjoy life as you see fit.
  11. EXACTLY, If one doesnt like the price, its simple really. Move on and enjoy life in the way you chose . Dont bash those who can / will pay the price to get what they want Like I said earlier. There has been times that kit would sell for that. But IMO those days are behind us
  12. Model haus used to make a resin conversion. I would have to ck. But i might have one
  13. Not necessarily in any actual order. as my interest could change on any given day . But, Johan 1969 GTX Johan 1970 Roadrunner. Johan 1970 AMX Revell Thunderbolt Revell 68-69 Dodge Dart MPC 1971 Demon. AMT 58-59 Edsel conv, And for the record . I think Its ok, but never been much of a fan of the 60 Edsel And to fill in any gaps ,,,,I'll go with pretty much any big body car from late 50s to mid 60s of all makes
  14. Doesnt seem like all that long ago, a promo was cheap. May or may not be the case today. And Agreed,,,one of them will be your best option
  15. Ps. In maybe the past 3 years or so. A sealed johan 1969 gtx sold for.over $600. So trust me. Kits can pull some serious coin if the right people are looking.
  16. Its been a few years. But kit was posted with a low opening bid. Best i remember im thinking maybe $50 ????? And a couple bidders got into a bidding war. And the kit sold for over $1000 This happened maybe 5 / 6 years ago maybe. I had one still sealed inside. And listed it and mine only went to about 400. Went to japan
  17. Hate to be a negative nelly. But ive seen a sealed mpc 1970 challenger sell for more than that. Just not recently
  18. This style bench seat didn't appear until 1973 i think. 1970 1971 was a flat back front bench seat
  19. Anyone know his user id here . Shapeways says i need to register to send a message .
  20. Thanks I will look into that possibility
  21. I am looking for someone who can make a 3d grill and tail light panel to convert the Revell 67 GTX to a 66 Satellite Any one capable here or elsewhere PM me
  22. Thanks all. I feel like a little kid with a new kiddie pool every time I walk out into the garage . I have my doubts that feeling will ever leave.
  23. Thanks. And no...there is zero chance it will have a hitch on it..... ever.
