prostockmania Posted August 30, 2011 Posted August 30, 2011 (edited) Nothing to unique, but I picked up these Nissan 350z's at my local hobby lobby on clearence for 18.09 a piece today on my lunch, opened one to check it out, gonna make an interesting slot car. Also over the weekend, picked up the Mitsubishi GTO and the RX-7 at a garage sale for 5.00 each. Just happened to stop by one on the way home over the weekend, might have to stop at more, lol.

Joe Handley Posted August 30, 2011 Posted August 30, 2011 Uhg, I've now got the knowledge that we need to replace the right rear air shock on my Jeep........again..........................for the third time this summer
Jocache83 Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 i got two aurora kits and a entex civic! wish i had more cash to get more. ah well
Tonioseven Posted September 1, 2011 Posted September 1, 2011 (edited) Mr. Seven, how is that quality / detail on the scooter? I have seen that they are offering those with the old cragars & slots too.... Here's a (bad) picture of it... I also got my AMT slicks in the mail yesterday. I might have to get another pack, they're THAT nice!!! Edited September 1, 2011 by Tonioseven
Dr. Cranky Posted September 1, 2011 Posted September 1, 2011 Some great stuff . . . hope you put it to great use.
XJ6 Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 i got two aurora kits and a entex civic! wish i had more cash to get more. ah well Just wondering....where you found those Aurora Kits? Those are Great!!...Way to go...Cheers
Jocache83 Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 Just wondering....where you found those Aurora Kits? Those are Great!!...Way to go...Cheers a guy in southern cali was selling them. but unfortunately he realized the value of his collection and wont sell no more. i wanted to get more kits from him (he had a set of aurora racing scene drag racing figures). ill probably ask him if i can take pics of his collection because i know i'll never see them again. lol
Junkman Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 i got two aurora kits and a entex civic! wish i had more cash to get more. ah well I wish I had the cash you already spent. Nice catches though.

Just send it to me and I'll show you... I'd scratchbuild a car transporter trailer for it and load it with 1/16 AMT 55 and 57 Chevys.
Jocache83 Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 I wish I had the cash you already spent. Nice catches though. Lets just say im glad i got them at a really good price but wish i had more cash to get his colletion.
Guest Johnny Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 A White Road Boss for 22.20 at Hobby Lobby thanks to a 40% off coupon and a great wife!!!
disabled modeler Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 Really nice Aurora kits there Joe!...had those when I was a kid from a hardware store.
MoparManiac318 Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 I recently acquired an AMT 57 Chrysler 300C from eBay and a Revell 1932 Ford Street Rod as well as an AMT 1958 Plymouth Belvedere. Super excited to start these builds.. unfortunately I have about 16 more to complete first lol
RodneyB Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 Nice work on the Fan George Looks perty good.
bandit1 Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 hey blue and gold! i like it george! west virginia mountaineers!
Guest Johnny Posted September 4, 2011 Posted September 4, 2011 George! You defaced a priceless antique!!! LOL Just kidding! Those old fans are the best! One local repair shop likes them so much he stocks the parts to repair most makes! Woody has been known to drop what he is doing and do the repair while the customer waits he loves working on them so much! Unlike the new stuff that are throw away non repairable foreign made junk.
LDO Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 No pics yet, but I got a PAIR of Ford 385-series big blocks. A 429 and a 460, long blocks, plus a pair of cast aluminum Holley valve covers. The heads are off and they both need rebuilds, but hey, for $225, who's complaining? One is for my 1988 Mustang, the other is for a buddy's 1967 Mustang.
