Casey Posted August 19, 2012 Posted August 19, 2012 The manager came up and looked through the price book and said its $13.99 so with my 40% coupon I got it for $8.98 after taxes. I thought I would share this to see if any other hobby lobbys were selling these for $13.99 or if they just told me the wrong price I just saw it priced at $29.99 at my local HL a few hours ago. Nice 67% discount you got.
Lownslow Posted August 19, 2012 Posted August 19, 2012 always wanted one finally got it im thinking panels or scallops
Ron Hamilton Posted August 19, 2012 Posted August 19, 2012 My friendly postman delivered this to me today and I am a happy camper, I was sweating and hoping it would not be damaged as this is a 90.00 ebay sealed kit find until I opened it... :rolleyes: I am jealous, as I have been trying to get one of those for the longest time. I was able to get a decent built up a few months ago at our NNL. It is mostly there, except that it has 1975 Caprice wheelcovers, and the chrome is a little weak. I should be able to remove the paint from it without much of a hassle. Like I wrote, yours is beautiful, and too nice for what I am going to do to this one. My Mom bought one of these on Memorial Day, 1974. I believe that I can do this one out of the Caprice. It's in line withthe other projects. I'll have to draw up the plans, and gather the supplies I need to do the conversion. I can't wait to see what you do with the '74 Caprice.

Thanks Ron, I really loved seeing this Caprice still sealed in the bag. I will probably build it factory stock or as the tow car version shown on the box... I like your 74 Caprice...
Junkman Posted August 19, 2012 Posted August 19, 2012 Found this at the local boot sale today: Should have seen me jumping up and down with joy.
Austin T Posted August 20, 2012 Posted August 20, 2012 Got the Revell "Killer Bee" kit for 10 bucks! Was a mini-grail for me,and what a great price.
Frank Posted August 20, 2012 Posted August 20, 2012 (edited) Went to the local IPMS swap meet yesterday,I managed to snag 3 nice kits. AMT 53 pickup, Galaxie 1948 Aerosedan and a Italia Opel Blitz firetruck. Edited August 20, 2012 by Frank
Bart68 Posted August 20, 2012 Posted August 20, 2012 I picked up this Kenworth K-123 from the early 70's from the flea market yesterday for $10.00 with all the parts still in the bags but it is missing one steel axle but even the decals are in nice shape, the chrome all looks really nice but I took those out out of the plastic bag they came in because the bags are yellow due to age/smokers and I wanted to see just what kind of shape that the chrome was in. One of my best Second hand scores yet. **borrowed the pic from ebay**
crazyjim Posted August 20, 2012 Posted August 20, 2012 All I got was a sore back and shoulders from pressure washing the driveway.
oldscool Posted August 21, 2012 Posted August 21, 2012 I got all these last week but am just now able to post a pic.
Roncla Posted August 21, 2012 Posted August 21, 2012 I got a small packet of Pocher parts from Model Motorcars Ltd. First time i've dealt with them. Excellent product and excellent to deal with. These guys have some very tempting product for enhancing Pocher kits. http://www.modelmoto...s.com/index.htm

Joe Handley Posted August 21, 2012 Posted August 21, 2012 Did those have the truck rallies from the factory?

martinfan5 Posted August 21, 2012 Posted August 21, 2012 Looks like a fuel pump, I hear ya, I went almost eight months of not being able to drive my own car
JamesW Posted August 21, 2012 Posted August 21, 2012 Yup, fuel pump. Second one in 1 1/2 years (first one was my truck). Cut a hole in the bed for that one, too bad I couldn't do that this time too. LOL
MyBradKeselowski Posted August 21, 2012 Posted August 21, 2012 Did those have the truck rallies from the factory? Yes, all SOA Impala's left the factory with rallies...
PatRedmond Posted August 21, 2012 Posted August 21, 2012 If you plan to build that and don't use the Dolphins and/or Steelers decals I'd like to take them off your hands. IF anyone has the NFC version decals, I'd like the Detroit Lions decals if you're not using them...
