Chuck Mols Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Picked up 7 glue bombs at a local antique store for $12. It looks like they are all from the mid to late sixties. Some of you may know what they are, if you do, please let me know. The green one and blue/red one are by Hawk. 1902 Rambler, and 1909 Oldsmobile. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisBcritter Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Big score on that Jo-Han '67 Chrysler 300! The '69 Chevy pickup's a pretty nice find too; too bad somebody stuck that optional firetruck panel on the driver's rear fender. As for that Ideal Toy "Mercedes", the less said the better...

The best part of this kit is the machined aluminum injector stacks that are included, wish these were available aftermarket. I had a bear of a time getting the upper cowling and engine cover to fit/ fully seat onto the lower tub. I recommend doing lots of dry-fitting and tuning if your kit parts fit like mine did (hopefully yours will fit better!). The assembly and alignment of the exhaust headers was also a test. It’s a beauty when completed and I hope someday to build another one of these along with a Lotus 25. Good luck! John Looks awesome John! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewetwo Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 (edited) Picked these up today. Parts available LOL Underneath a few are screw bottoms. Seems like they liked the 32 Chrysler. Into old planes? Check the “what did you buy” under not car related if you’re into planes. Edited June 29, 2022 by ewetwo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike C. Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 Finally got one more of my holy grails. Revell Baja Husky. Just won it on ebay and the price was unexpectantly low. Missing decal sheet but man, I was never expecting to get one this inexpensive. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Straightliner59 Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 This is my favorite of all the EM Series Porsches. I've never had one, before. I managed to get this one, shipped, for a surprisingly nice price! I also got these six bundles of twenty pieces, each of .020", .032", .040", .060", .080" and .100" plastic rod. hey were less than $20, shipped! Nice! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slusher Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 I hope it goes smooth getting your part. Not a good feeling getting a new kit and parts missing… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Straightliner59 Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Both of these showed up, yesterday from Ebay purchases. I also have an Advent 510 in the BRE markings. That one was started and painted. This one's pristine. When I get around to doing Lotus John's ride, I'll have a clean slate. I built one of these Monogram RSRs probably 35 years ago, or so. I still have it, but, I like the kit, and the wider-bodied 911s. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keyser Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 That 510 has stock interior option. BRE do not. Lmk if you don’t want stock panels. 👍🏼 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 The 510 is a super nice kit and well detailed. I built the BRE issue, and it even had a road map for all of the plumbing in the engine compartment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like Atlantis’ service is as good as their models. They have informed me, that the replacement parts I need are already in the mail on their way to me. What more can one ask for? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
