spkgibson Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 I am positive that Yodel is the same one that I had in my watch list I worry we are going to end up aginst each other some time For $27 plus shipping on the Yodel kit ,I couldn't help but bid on it, Excuse me , My wife bid on them both for me, She's trying to get me the whole collection of the yodel kits, The only ones i'm missing now is the CHP And the LACP Cars in this box art.The Dukes kit was warped ,But I fixed the body by putting some water in a container, Heated it up in the microwave for 5 minutes, Put the body in it for about 30 seconds, Then bent it back to shape, It looks perfect now.

highway Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 Even though it's a little late, here is my Christmas haul, thanks to some gift certificates to my favorite hobby shop! This was the only one Christmas morning, other than a digital fractional caliper I forgot to take a pic of. These were from the $45 in gift certificates. These I picked up in addiction, whoops, addition to the gift certificate buys, I just couldn't pass up the deals! The trailer, since the nice man at the hobby shop didn't want to try to put it back in it's place after checking the price for me, gave me a present of selling it for $30! As for the plow, I already had one I bought previously there, and at $27.48, I'd been crazy to pass on the other one! That was not a discount sale price either, that's their selling price! I bought both for less than retail for one kit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highway Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 By the way, here's the caliper, I figured I'd take a couple quick pics! It does the fractional and decimal measurements, and in both english and metric measurements. In case any of you were wondering where to get one like this, I pointed this out to the mother in law's little elf (my better half ) at Lowe's. If I remember correctly, this 3 inch model is $19.99, and they have a 6 inch model for $29.99. The 6 inch one has already been planted in everyone's head for my birthday in February!

Ryan S. Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 & finally - the Piece de Resi - - - well, Let's just call it a Piece... I think if you looked up "lowpoint in automotive design history" - This, uh, Washing machine on Wheels would be the definition. Did they rip off the Delorean design, or vica versa?
