These are fantastic looking, and well machined pieces, and I am very happy with the quality. He has some other great looking items available and I encourage anyone looking for custom pieces of this nature to check out his stuff. He also has a youtube channel (Mark Dunlop) with some great builds and in-progress vids that showcase some of his items, Beautiful air cleaners!

Captain Spaulding Posted February 21, 2021 Posted February 21, 2021 Stopped at my local flea market that just reopened and picked up a few cans of spray paint. Only $3.95 a can so can't beat the price.

They had like 20 different colors there, definitely going back for more.
ewetwo Posted February 21, 2021 Posted February 21, 2021 Picked these up today at a small antique shop. My neighbor went to to this shop and she knows I buy models. she bought me a kit saying she was told it was a complete kit. But it wasn't. So if she spies them. She tells me where. They had two more but one was a nascar and the other was the original MPC ice cream truck. Nothing I'd be interested in. And it's like what? I need more. LOL. At first I thought the 55 was missing the street machine wheels. But later realized they are not chrome.

HomerS Posted February 22, 2021 Posted February 22, 2021 Weekend toy show finds...... Jo-Han Cadillac....driver's side A column small crease, but otherwise good condition/complete. Seller also had a 64 Cadillac hardtop sealed but passed as I already have one A-Team van.....open/complete but the glass has yellowed. Box is trash
Bullybeef Posted February 22, 2021 Posted February 22, 2021 Got my small order from Drag City Casting today, first time ordering from Ed, I can honestly say it will not be my last order. 32 rpu body with chopped windshield 32 ford stock firewall 55 chev rear tonneau cover to cover the back seat area And some really gnarly rear American race wheels for an altered project.
keyser Posted February 22, 2021 Posted February 22, 2021 How do you order from Drag City? Ed has neat stuff but Facebook useless for prices.
Modlbldr Posted February 22, 2021 Posted February 22, 2021 Got my case of display cases today! Now to get my builds out of the dust. Later-

That’s pretty much what I did, I looked through his Fotki, found what I wanted him and contacted him for pricing. he is pretty fast at responding, it may seem like a pita to order but I guarantee the results are worth it.
StevenGuthmiller Posted February 23, 2021 Posted February 23, 2021 Another terrific bunch of parts from Chief Joseph! A couple of pairs of Carter street Hemi carbs and a set of 15 inch wheels and tires for my '68 Coronet project. Steve
The Junkman Posted February 23, 2021 Posted February 23, 2021 Tube of Squadron Grey Putty, tub of Tamiya white putty, bottle of Tamiya orange top plastic cement. Uninspired, I know.

Uninspired, I know. Hey, without it they'd never get painted or stuck together. Chief's carbs are insanely good. Epic is justified, really. Thanks for the ordering tip for Drag City. 32 roadster pickup is a must. His 4 door too.
OldNYJim Posted February 23, 2021 Posted February 23, 2021 Had this on my list for a while - and put a lowball offer on eBay and won it for cheap: The “Pro Shop” tag makes you think you’re maybe getting some kind of crazy extra-detailed version but far as I can tell it’s the same as the earlier AMT 32s - moulded in stuff on the frame and one-piece interior tub. I knew that going in tho - just wanna build one for my collection! I’m going to do the drag version from the box art I think. Fun little quickie build (although I was wondering how well it would kitbash with the 32 frame and all the running gear from the Revell 29 Ford kit ???)

I have the Orange 55 I panted and foiled but have not built it yet but I plan on getting to it.. bought mine at Walmart years ago...
89AKurt Posted February 23, 2021 Posted February 23, 2021 Stainless steel tubing. Years ago, at the IMPS Nationals in CO, a vendor had packages of hypodermic tubing, 2" long, great for making hydraulic struts. Almost used up one size, so made the order for the exhaust tip size worth it. Should last me for the rest of my life.
GeeBee Posted February 23, 2021 Posted February 23, 2021 Not that I need another Land Rover, but I spotted this on eBay, I popped in an offer of £18, ($25) which was accepted, arrived this morning via UPS.
