I got this kit for free from one of the guys I work with. He said his girlfriend got this for him. He stated on the it and he said he was drunk when he was working on it. So I though it funny because he is really funny when he is done for. He painted with some hobby paints. Thats not a problem I can fix it. DSC06454.jpgDSC06455.jpgDSC06456.jpgDSC06457.jpgDSC06459.jpg

good score on the Johan Olds Cutlass! the '76 Nova kit by the way, builds a tubbed racecar with a big-block Chevy, no option for stock :rolleyes:

I know Dave, I bought it motly for parts and nostalgic reasons, it was one of the first kits I built and was the first model kit my grandfather ever bought me.

BTW the Ford police car is the original issue.

Which direction to go would be a problem for me too since the steering wheel is on the wrong side.

Not soo true, it has a LHD and RHD dash :)

and so does my (just got today)Fujimi Honda Civic SiR II

Do all the Japanese kits come with LHD & RHD dashboard options? There are some interesting kits out there but I want them in LHD. The pics show RHD and I can't find kit details anywhere.

Probably ordinary to most, but I've been looking for this stuff for a while. It's the gentler one that can be used on flexible and rigid plastics. This is the only can I've seen within 50 miles, and of course it was the only one on the shelf. I tested it out on a piece and it was so smooth after 3 light coats I wasn't sure if I should sand it. It puts Dupli-Color to shame. Of course it was $8.50 compared to Dupli-Color's $4.99 but it's definitely worth it. I just hope I can find some more.

A couple days ago, I went by my dads house looking for a 1/8th scale (I think) Camaro model that I started a long time ago and never finished. I didn't find it, but I did find some a lot of other stuff. First off, a buttload of parts, and semi complete builds (not cause I didnt finish them, because theyve been in the basement for 15 years). I know its a crappy picture, but if you see something you want send me an email, Im sure I can probably part with it, since now I have a huge parts box

Next a couple of unfinished kits.

A kit that my uncle bought before he died and never started, the box is crunched, but the kit looks to be fine.

Lastly, 2 kits that my Dad has had for a long time, and he now wants me to build. Both of cars he used to own, so Im going to build them like his 1:1's and give them back. Ive been wanting to do an X-19 for a long time.
