Modelcollector Posted August 22, 2010 Posted August 22, 2010 (edited) Went to a household auction today to look at stuff and stumbled on a few old Revell, MPC and AMT kits. Stayed around ALL day to see if they went for a price I could afford. Bought a 1968 MPC Barracuda #268-200 for $13. Complete, except decals, unstarted. It says "Psychedelic Auto Art Decal" on the box. Also picked up an AMT 36 Ford Customizer kit, Revell Kawasaki Mach III 1/8 scale bike #H1228, Yamaha Scrambler 350 1/8 bike #H1220, Revell '60 Corvette #H1203 sealed in the box, Monogram Wildcat F4F plane sealed in the box. All except those two are opened, but all there. Got all of those for only $20!! Don't think I did too bad for going to look at other stuff that, by the way, I didn't even buy!

Sixties Sam Posted August 22, 2010 Posted August 22, 2010 Nice score! $20 for all those models! You're set for the rest of the year!
Railfreak78 Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 Nice deal! Do you have any pictures of the Yamaha 350?
Modelcollector Posted August 23, 2010 Author Posted August 23, 2010 I don't have any pictures. Not very good at getting them done and in here. It looks kinda funky with dual exhaust goin down the sides very high up, not far below the seat. It's molded in a really rich blue. Best thing about all of the kits is they are all complete with very nice chrome and clear parts. I am most proud of the 'Cuda as I really like that '68 body style. Now the decision comes whether to build or store away.
Modelcollector Posted August 24, 2010 Author Posted August 24, 2010 (edited) That's the one. My box is in excellent shape except for about a 1/8" hole drilled in the top right corner. Is this kit from '68? I can't find a copyright date anwhere. Edited August 24, 2010 by Modelcollector
