Got These at the Mid-Atlantic NNL

Got These at the Mid-Atlantic NNL this weekend. Wasn't much in the way of parts there, as Jerry didn't show up with his magic bins full of parts, but I did get a couple things.

 

First up is the glue bomb AMT 32 Ford. I love these things. Paid $5.

Next up is this 32 Vicky ( I think ) for which I paid $5. 

Lastly, there was the bargain of the day for $10, a complete vintage Ala Kart, parts for a second one, and parts for a 29 and 32 Ford. Lots of engines, parts still on sprue (in the background), and other goodies. All will go to the parts bins except the Ala Kart.

Lots of stuff to work with there. The 32 roadster looks almost as rough as the last one you did

So much fun for so little money!

Nice! I saw a pile somewhat this on the 'bay last night...except it would have been more like $70 once I had it shipped. Oh well.

Finding models cheap(er than new) always makes my day, even if they're glue bombs or kits I'm not particularly interested in. When I do find them, they're usually 90s corvette kits and the like...not vintage 60s Ala Karts!!! So congrats on your finds.

Good deals!  I picked up a real nice '61 Starliner for a really reasonable price at the same show, along with a set of resin kidney bean Halibrand wheels with tires from the folks at Historic Racing Miniatures.

Yeah Chris, it was definitely too good to pass up. Not sure what I'll do with the Ala Kart yet.

I used to be able to get large lots of model car parts on eBay for a reasonable price, but they're few and far between now it seems. Or it's cheap but all sprue. That's what I was hoping to find at NNL, but nothing found.

Nice, John! That's a beautiful car any way you build it. The man from Historic Racing Minatures was a super nice guy, too. Definitely knows his products, too.
