Custom Hearse Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 Got this in the mail today.... It comes with a removable cooler in the bed, and when you open it up, it has beer on ice.... The decals are in decent shape, so I may build it box stock, with the exception of a tire change.
Roadkill2525 Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 Got a Aoshima Silvia S13 and a set of 14" Watanabe wheels from Mr. Cozart.
Chuck Most Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 I got Swine Flu! Oh, right, model car related topic... I picked up two more AMT '29 Model A roadsters and a '41 Plymouth (can't have too many of those), a box full of parts, with a '61 Pontiac Promo grille and some old Annual kit custom parts being the most interesting things. I also got two Revel-o-gram engine parts packs- the Cadillac and Pontiac V-8's. I passed up yet another AMT Ford Courier kit because it was the Flareside version... I wish those Monroe Magnum versions were easier to come by! On the other hand... those 1960's Lincoln promos I'm always seeking still elude me. One o' these days...
Custom Hearse Posted May 6, 2009 Posted May 6, 2009 i have the blue version of the Coors truck called the Rebel Courier. same basic thing but without the cool Coors front bumper! Dave I've seen that truck before. Does it have the cooler in the bed? I can't remember. Post some pics of it, I'd like to see it again.
torinobradley Posted May 6, 2009 Posted May 6, 2009 I got two of the Testor's "Those Famous Fords" kits from 1977. I got the GT40 Mk II and a GT40 Mk IV. Only one had the engine block glued together. Other than that, they were complete and unbuilt!
Custom Hearse Posted May 6, 2009 Posted May 6, 2009 here is the "Rebel"! found this on Ebay one time while looking for just cool, old and interesting kits. no one wanted it? i was the lucky lone bidder and i have to say, the rest of you that passed don't know what you are missing! the bed has the same cooler full of iced beer as the Coors version. Dave Same here. I was the only bidder for the Coors kit. Cost me a total of $20.00 with shipping. Nice kit Dave. Do you plan to build it? If you do, let me know about any problems with it.
LVZ2881 Posted May 10, 2009 Posted May 10, 2009 These all showed of my doorstep from evilbay and a few internet hobby shops this Stagea kit is pretty cool. it comes with PE scripts for the car and PE spokes for the bike as well as some astro turf for a grass display..and yes the roof "Jet Bag" is included as well as the bike rack.
gasman Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 Model Kings 79 Bronco, been wanting one but I did'nt want to pay big bucks for the Cougar drag car i'll never build, so I got just the Bronco off Ebay pretty cheap
Roadkill2525 Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 (edited) Where did you get the Starion from? I got my orders from Strada Sports and HWJapan today. Edited May 11, 2009 by El Destructo Inc
LVZ2881 Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 I got the Starion off ebay from a guy out of Hong Kong. I know he usually has a few more.
RodneyBad Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 Like a piece of Heaven fell into my lap today, Some Great Stuff from Dave Zinn. He even surprised me, How did he know I needed some Fender Flares? I have no lack of Options for Drifters now.

Oh, no, Dave... I WANT one of those. I mean the AMT Flareside Courier is the one I pass up every time. Now, I wouldn't mind the "Bush Baby" version with Four wheel drive, but the mid '90's Courier Flareside had the 2wd setup from the Monroe Magnum version- those things seem to be falling out of the sky! I'd love to see the AMT Courier kit reissued, with BOTH beds and BOTH drivetrain setups in ONE box! I would REALLY love to see the Rebel reissued, as well. Edited May 12, 2009 by Chuck Most
RodneyBad Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 got my box of goodies today from Zukiholic! thanks a ton Rodney! thanks to him i've finally gotten a Fox bodied Capri. the Warlock is destined for off-road racer greatness with a special hood i've been hanging onto for just such a build. the gold wheels included in that kit are awesome though and i'll put them to good use on another Dodge truck. the circle track stuff is more for my madness lately for anything i can build into local level short trackers. the little D50, well i just have a thing for the lifted version of that kit! could be from growing up in the 80's Dave Yaaa It got there and I packed the right stuff. I was in such a hurry, I didn't triple check The box kept growing. ya know, back in the days, I use to put the date and price on the bottom of the boxes. I think I had that Warlock for almost 20yrs That's Okay, I got a spare I'm glad you like them cause I surely love mine
Semi Trailer Mechanic Posted May 13, 2009 Posted May 13, 2009 Got my 1/16th scale Dodge Charger in the mail today, still factory sealed! Still had the price tag on it! This was one of the many grail kits I've been wanting to get. What's goin' on... COOL!!! I remember KAY BEE Toys having a good stock of kits back in the day.

B_rad88 Posted May 15, 2009 Posted May 15, 2009 hey el destructo, where did you get that sweet RB26DETT?
Custom Hearse Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 What's goin' on... COOL!!! I remember KAY BEE Toys having a good stock of kits back in the day. Same thing.... different day Scott.... I used to work for Kay Bee toys.... I think I worked there just to get the employee discount! I wish I still had half of the kits that I got from there.... I'd be a millionaire!
PatRedmond Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 Some SWEET imports there, guys! I'll have to find a 4 door Skyline GT-X Waiting on an AMT '09 Challenger via mail-order.....
Roadkill2525 Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 hey el destructo, where did you get that sweet RB26DETT? Hobby shop in Sacramento
jbwelda Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 mike, show him a photo of the contents of the motor kit. its incredibly simple.
B_rad88 Posted May 17, 2009 Posted May 17, 2009 Hobby shop in Sacramento ok, are they hard to get? and do they have another one?
Roadkill2525 Posted May 17, 2009 Posted May 17, 2009 ok, are they hard to get? and do they have another one? I haven't seen any online, but I don't know if Riverside can order another. Aoshima makes the RB20DETT for the Cefiro and the RB26DETT for the R32 Skyline, both can be interchanged because they share the same chassis.
FujimiLover Posted May 19, 2009 Posted May 19, 2009 Got my Smart Car and Honda motorcycle today! Thank you!
