Arrived today.  Done by Andy Lesiak.  Very, very clean 3D print.  Will not require a lot of clean up.  Have a plan for this.

20230219_141714.thumb.jpg.0e30d3ac88dc7428c53451a4f01afb3d.jpgMy haul from the Salisbury NC swap yesterday . Had a really good day selling so went and spent part of sales $ on some kits.

original AMT 59 El Camino with broken but repairable roof & missing front bumper & taillight. May be up for trade once I figure out what to ask for in trade.

58 TBird promo body, slightly warped in the rear. Should be able to refit rear bumper. Bottom of interior cut out.

Hi Brian, I have the lights exchanged now and the work bench area is certainly brighter. The one thing I am keeping an eye on is that the cord outlet end of the light fixtures, where the pull chains are, is quite warm to the touch. No odor of any kind though. Here is a photo for you. 🙂

Eventually one of the moebius pick ups…

Had a Diamond Blue 1:1 '68 Mustang for 24 years (1977-2001) Dad had a 1:1 '70 Mustang in Pastel Blue (same color, code "N"). Nobody ever paints model Mustangs, Cougars, and Torinos the pastel colors though.

Not going to lie, a mustang was not on my radar for that color, but now……

 

what color interior did you have?

Was the typical two tone blue standard bucket seat interior with no console.

I have a WIP Revell '68 Cobra Jet in my car's color combination.

It would be interesting to see my car's Marti report. Was an odd combination of options. Dad's boss bought it off the lot at Downtown Ford in Sacramento. It was passed to me for $200 in August 1977 with about 50k miles. The car was worth ~$2000 at the time, but they were very generous. We also had a '77 Celica GT Liftback from them that Dad bought for 50 cents.

J-code 302-4V, 4-speed toploader, power steering and power disc brakes. AM-FM stereo (!), remote driver's mirror and whatever package included a trunk light.

I got a ton that will eventually be coming in from plaza japan, gravity colors, hiroboy, ebay, and that's not including when i go out with my friend this week to check out my main spots lol.  Spent about a good $1000 on kits, paints, photo etch parts, etc will post once everything is in.

This was more like the last couple of days. Got some ideas for these. The tires are Formula Desert Dogs from Modelhaus.

Not really a snowmobile fan (too cold) so look for the snowmobile in the trade section.
