jrherald420 Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 Nothing today, went to Hobby Lobby to see if the Rat Roadster kit was in yet and it wasn't. I did how ever help a couple pick out a airbrush and let them know about the 40% off coupon. Nothing better than saving 40% on a 200.00 airbrush you were going to buy anyways. The employee was telling them nothing but wrong BS about airbrushes and i just couldn't stand there and listen to it anymore. By the end he learned a lot from me and was asking more questions than the people buying it.
Austin T Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 I like that McLaren A LOT.I just wish that they made a street version and I didn't have to pay what they go for "I'm frugal".
Tom Geiger Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 Lucky! I go to the Goodwill store every time I pass by and have only found a diecast car once!
martinfan5 Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 (edited) I think I paid $34 for it Lucky! I go to the Goodwill store every time I pass by and have only found a diecast car once! They sell model kits on their website too, I always forget to check Good Will for model kits Got this and two cans of paint from Hobby Lobby Edited January 24, 2013 by martinfan5
Draggon Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 I'm a lucky guy. Kindly old Gepetto dropped off these Aztec pearls. Then this showed up. I never thought it would happen. And to top it off, this minty-fresh novelty from the Hon. Rev. Mr. Black. It even has the tinted windows.
GeeBee Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 (edited) This arrived a couple of days ago, ordered it through eBay, from Burbank's House of Hobbies, brilliant service, again took just over a week to arrive Edited January 25, 2013 by GeeBee
spkgibson Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 A hair cut last night......And 2 of the 69' GTO funny cars...Nice kits to base stock builds on.......The 69' Olds 442 chassis fits the body like a glove!
Modlbldr Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 (edited) If you go to the store for one thing, don't look at anything else, or you will have two things... Now if I could just find a SBC to drop in the landcruiser... Erik- Who has the Rat Roaster? Later- Edited January 25, 2013 by Modlbldr
Erik Smith Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Erik- Who has the Rat Roaster? Later- B and B, Tom.
Tom Geiger Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Frickin Snow! At least we don't have to go anywhere.
Casey Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 A hair cut last night......And 2 of the 69' GTO funny cars...Nice kits to base stock builds on.......The 69' Olds 442 chassis fits the body like a glove! I was wondering about that, as I'd eventually like a stock 1/25 '69 GTO Judge myself. I think you still need to find an interior, correct? Have you tried the Revell '72 Cutlass chassis under the MPC body?
crazyjim Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Frickin Snow! At least we don't have to go anywhere. What's that?
Rob Hall Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 I was wondering about that, as I'd eventually like a stock 1/25 '69 GTO Judge myself. I think you still need to find an interior, correct? Have you tried the Revell '72 Cutlass chassis under the MPC body? Haven't tried that, but the MPC '70 GTO interior, chassis, engine etc fits fine under it...
Johnny K Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Picked up this lot on eBay Sunday and it arrived today: http://www.ebay.com/itm/rat-rod-hot-rod-parts-lot-/330858000649? Came in an 18 x 18 x 10 box, no packaging, just parts. Lots of great parts, a little junk, quite a bit of new, and mostly all in very usable condition. Very pleased with it - probably take all weekend to sort.
martinfan5 Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Been wanting one of these kits, but never wanted to pay the high price, I was able to get this one for $65 and free shipping, the box is beat up a little, but thats ok
Tom Geiger Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 I spoke too soon! Yes we did get that snow... and who came trudging up to the door? The mail man. That's unusual since our mailbox is down at the curb. And he had a Priority Mail box with this Citroen truck in it! I ripped it right open and already have all the parts off the trees and prepped. I feel like an excited 12 year old. Haven't gotten to a kit that quick in years! Yipee!
lmtdconnectivity Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 I got a new #1 needle for my airbrush, some jars and this:
peter31a Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 Sorry for quoting the whole pic but was unsure how to cut it down. Anyway, what's the story on the Testor's Aztek Pearls? I've never seen Testors bottles like that before. Any info? I'm a lucky guy. Kindly old Gepetto dropped off these Aztec pearls. Then this showed up. I never thought it would happen. And to top it off, this minty-fresh novelty from the Hon. Rev. Mr. Black. It even has the tinted windows.

Have you tried the Revell '72 Cutlass chassis under the MPC body? it's way to long.The 69' Olds works best.....I read the 1/24 scale monogram interior will work with some mods to it.
Roadkill2525 Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 Stuff for my USS Hornet build of White 21 and some modern Kraut weapons
hooknladderno1 Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 m I'm shocked! I love these old Heller Citroen trucks. I have them all but who can pass up an opportunity to get another copy? So I bid reasonably often, but never win. So imagine my surprise that I won two of them in separate auctions today. The Normandy for $16.50 and the Bordens truck for $22.72. I lost the Hotel Taxi short bus version which sold for around $50. That's okay! Now to go sit out by the mailbox! Hi Tom, Didn't know about those Heller Citroens. I have always wanted to build some of the earlier ambulances, but the Johan Cadillac kits from that era just didn't look right. May have to check into these kits...
XJ6 Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 Stuff for my USS Hornet build of White 21 and some modern Kraut weapons Hey Hope all is going well for ya.....Hope to see ya at the next "City Style" Model Car Club Meet.... Hey got a question...why do you have the (5) bottles of Modelmaster paints up-side down....Just curious.. Cheers...Don aka XJ6
clavender17 Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 I might be able to help there ^ i store my paint upside down so all the paint dont seddle to the bottom of the jar and when it dose i take the lid off and scrape it off with ease instead of trying to mix it back in with the paint .
