Right place at the right time. Local hobby shop received a large selection of kits from a family member, their dad had passed away. All the car and pickup kits had sold quickly but the semi kits remained, so I bought the remainder of the truck kits. 

Major score of some great kits!

Got the 1965 Falcon promo yesterday.  Along with the 1961 Falcon brochure which will go with my 1961 Falcon promo.

Very nice and clean. Pretty neat that the car on the brochure is the same color as your promo. Are you in need of other dealer brochures for promos you have? 

[ewetwo]

The brochure just happened to be with the 65 falcon as a package deal and I happened to have the 62. Have clean the 65 yet.

My dad had a multitude of dealer brochures. At one time he was gonna toss them out but I saved them. Not sure if I have what you need but if I do you are welcome to what you need for $0.00 can't beat that price..?

If you can find one, Tamiya has the racing version of this kit.

I know of this kit, I was patiently waiting for a decent price on any of the Jag Mk2 kits. My thoughts were more towards prostreet or a dragstrip. Something along the lines of the photo attached. Thanks for sharing and I apologize for getting back so late..

It looks to be so, but I am not sure, the original price sticker says 25.00 bucks. I gave 20 bucks for each as a lot of truck stuff.

Came today per mail (from an Austrian ebayer - I was the only bidder): Modeler's 2D (I already have the Fujimi reissue):

I special ordered a can of spray paint very similar to do my Mustang Trio. But it was expensive then at $25 from O'Rielly's Auto Parts. But Was able to paint quite a few from that can. 4 mustangs using it for the exterior and the interior. Edit: Actually 5 Mustangs.  I forgot the one I built for my friend Danny and his wife. Plus a 64 Galaxie.

Nothing special just some hard to find window masks from hobbyeasy for Tamiya Porsche 911 GT3.  Even comes with a template to make extra. Need to figure out how to upload it online so folks can print it out.

Received the short bed 1960 and 1963 F-100 conversions from Best Model Car Parts (along with some gauges) yesterday. They have the normal flashed-over openings, but it is tissue-paper thin. Very little flash elsewhere. Very clean castings overall.

Went to the antique mall looking for new HO train scores, happened across a sealed-inside recent issue of this, and couldn't resist the low low low low price. This is really one of my favorite kits...and trucks...but I only had one cherry and a bunch of gloobombs.

                                              

Same seller had a really good price on this too, completely sealed, and though I already had one just because every car modeler needs an Edsel, I'd kinda wanted another one to do a drag car.

                                                

Funny...all the other kits he had were stupid-overpriced, including several brush-painted "starteds" missing half the parts. I woulda saved 'em if they'd been cheap...

One of our club members recently passed away so, per his wish, his collection was put up for sale first to us fellow club members at VERY fair prices. I bought about 25 kits.
