iamsuperdan Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 This showed up last night. Will need some mods to make it look more North American, but I dig it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewetwo Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Our post office is small with 2 windows. Now only one window can be opened because the can’t work next to each other. Plus our post office manager goes out in her own car to deliver packages. That’s dedication. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niteowl7710 Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 Couple of items from LB Production in Hong Kong. The new Land Motorsport/Monoplast sheet that allows either ADAC Masters GT or VLN liveries for 2016. This was a rare double championship as Land took top spot in both German Racing Series that year. Also a set of 3D printed wheels to correct the NuNu BMW 320i, kit tires are a drop fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete75 Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 Latest eBay purchase just in & I'm very pleased!? I have one other Hasegawa kit in stash, but I've never built one. It comes with a load of photo etch plus belt fabric - awesome! The guy I bought it from had it since new: he trebled his money in storing it for me, so we're both happy. Will be done as the McRae 1994 Rally GB winning car. Just can't afford any slip ups in the build as spares won't be cheap!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a Hasegawa rally Impreza of some sort and it won't get built that way, so I might be able to help out if need be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoy The MPC Thunder Charger! You don't see those very often. AFAIK, the '67 Charger in that custom configuration was only released once, in 1967. For younger visitors, that was MPC's 1967 movie tie-in kit, tied to the American-International movie "Thunder Alley." (The 1966 movie tie-in kit was the Fireball 500 Barracuda, from the movie of the same name.) Here's the original kit and a still from the movie.
