It was more of a darker blue and had different bumpers. I'm sure it said 1998 on the box. Edited November 8, 2023 by stitchdup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. Please do ask. I have been waiting for the Buick for several years now. And I have had a hankering for the Revell Mopars for a while too!

Ben Brown Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 Add another to my list: Porsche 924 Carrera GT. Profil24 has a Le Mans version but I’d love to have a street version. Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike C. Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 I know I keep asking for this one, but I really want to do one of these, full custom. Revell has the old 1/24 Monogram Blazer tooling so that's a good start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revell has the old 1/24 Monogram Blazer tooling so that's a good start. '76 Chalet #0589 in the top pic, '77 #1460 in the bottom pic. Mentioned this somewhere else here at MCM, but for new folks, I'll repeat some of it: I used to own #1747 'til I needed the money more than a big no-ideal-available-place-to-fix-it-up rig. I am the current caretaker of the very old blazerchalet website (paying the bills to keep it online) and I have my hobby fun trying to keep track of every one of these ever made, supposedly only 1,780 (figure comes only from this 1979 article's 2nd paragraph - GM lost the figures for the GMC Casa Grande version, but has said they made 1,555 of the Chevy versions). Another 'custom' that just came up for sale yesterday with 80+ reference photos is Chalet #0258 in Texas. Myself, I thought the only class win I perhaps could achieve at the GSL contest would be in Factory Stock for one of these, but I never got past figuring out whether the Monogram Blazer / Jimmy was more of an accurate basis then the MPC Blazer or the Revell one. Snagged all three as cheap eBay buildups about a decade back, and that's all the farther I ever got … Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bugatti Fan Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 The Checker Cab in the picture Jesse put up is such an iconic vehic!e that I am surprised that no one has ever made a kit of it. I think that there may be one of two die cast models about but not as kits. May be worth some cottage industry maker doing a resin kit? The Neon was marketed in the UK under the Chrysler brand name. A company I worked for had a couple as runabouts that I used to drive from time to time. The irony was that the TV ads hyped it as being the car that was built to satisfy Americans being the most demanding customers for the car! My driving experience was underwhelming to say the least and I thought that the styling was bland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
