What did you get today? (Model Car Related Items)


Recommended Posts

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. :D

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... :rolleyes:

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.
