Renegade Posted February 17, 2019 Posted February 17, 2019 Went to HL for a can of paint to finish a 53 Ford PU. They had one 69 Mustang Boss. Now they have none.

ewetwo Posted February 17, 2019 Posted February 17, 2019 Just ordered one to see if I can make whitewall. The cutter and mailing labels I could not master.

Deathgoblin Posted February 18, 2019 Posted February 18, 2019 Went to IPMS Blizzcon and picked up a couple. Got a Revellogram Aerovette and a Tamiya Jaguar MkII. Both less than $20 each.
Ron Hamilton Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 (edited) I got this in trade with Scott8950. This is an AMT annual 1965 Corvette Coupe. It's missing a few parts, but I have a deep parts box, and I have what I need to build it the way I want to. The body is pretty clean, having never been sanded, nor cut. I'm going to leave it as a wire axle car. I gave it a little bath, and installed a set of good tires. I have to go to the parts department for the rest of the car. The paint on the interior is pretty good. originally I was going to go with a different interior color, but I like the red, so I am just going to detail it out. The body will painted a coordinating color to the interior, It will be a while before it is built, but I am happy with the transaction. Edited February 19, 2019 by Ron Hamilton

It could hardly be in better hands. BTW, I have an extra set of '65 wheel covers if you need them. On Modelhaus's "Final Sale" day I ordred a set of '66 5-spokers, but they screwed up and sent me '65 6-spokers instead. Edited February 19, 2019 by Snake45
Ron Hamilton Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 I may take you up on those wheel covers. I have to look at my parts.
martin9428 Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 Not completely car related but, model related. I got my air pressure regulator, hose, quick disconnects and airbrush holder today from TCP Global.
64SS350 Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 Got these today from UK..... Highly dissatisfied with the shipping...
cobraman Posted February 20, 2019 Posted February 20, 2019 I would be too. I hope the parts are fine.

Bugatti Fan Posted February 20, 2019 Posted February 20, 2019 99 per cent of all kit boxes are inherently weak, and shipped to retailers from the factory / distributor in suitable packaging. It is when re sellers and retailers ship odd kits that the problems generally arise. We all have some idea of how parcels are handled either by post or courier and need to pack accordingly. It is not rocket science.

ewetwo Posted February 20, 2019 Posted February 20, 2019 This came in the mail yesterday. Got it in 2 days. Fast! Now to practice and I have a ton of black walls to practice on.

Shipped in three individual very thin boxes ,with no packing material . They offered 15% refund or return for full...but not worth sending back to UK if they are ok. I haven't opened them yet, waited until I heard back from the them
Jon Cole Posted February 20, 2019 Posted February 20, 2019 Hopefully grinding out plastic won't be such a tedious chore anymore.

I had made a deal with him and he backed out after he found out it cost extra to ship to Canada.
