Lownslow Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Lownslow, I've built that Rx-7, be care full with the bumper ends, they dont fit that great. It's also an old motorized kit, so the interior sucks. I blacked out the windows and built it as slammer. i know, good thing that chiki crowds arent into lavish interiors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vizio93 Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 does a sore lower back from shoveling snow count? i didn't have it yesterday, so technically i did get it today. Dave I think it does count. I didn't shovel snow, but I did get the snow off of the vehicles and that was enough for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gray Smith Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Nothing yet, but over the weekend I ordered one of those Offy motors and some other misc parts from our buddy Norm (Prolly won't be here til after the new year ) I paid for a subscription to Street Rodder (finally) and discovered a new hobby shop where I picked up some paint and Tamiya polish. All that was also my Christmas present to myself after getting a bonus from work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Hall Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Picked up the new Revell '72 Cutlass at my LHS. I had preordered a couple from my favorite OLD, but couldn't resist one as a little xmas gift to myself. I've looked at the instructions, haven't taken any of the trees out of the bags yet...maybe I'll glue the engine block halves together before xmas. Was pleasantly surprised to see it does include the optional rear spoiler, though I had seen somewhere online that that part wasn't included.

Car Crazy 81 Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 I'd just picked up two AMT 57 Corvette "Gasser" kits from the club meeting tonight they need a lot of work but i see potential i'll have some pics of them tomorrow i'll be looking for parts for these kits. I gave the Tamiya US Jeep Willys with trailer thats a 1:35 scale to a club member he was happy with and i was happy with the 57 Vettes.

What scale is it 1/24 or 1/25? Any Info would be great! Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesW Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 this Corvette is very cool in a very 80's Wraith sort of way! looks like it would be alot of fun to build. Dave You were thinkin of that movie too huh. That was the first thing I thought of when I seen it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spkgibson Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 Hey Chris, hate to tell you this but if that Road Runner is molded in that orange/red colour it's the '80's reissue, all the original issues were molded in white. Or is it just painted that colour? Dosen't really matter either way though as they all have nice bodys ,, I think they changed the emblems to GTX somewhere along the way or something like that though.I have 2 of the orange kits from 83,they still have the Road Runner emblems on the body!great score,I payed $75 for both of mine,a few years back!and one of the bodys was twisted beyond use! seems like everyone is getting rid of these cars now that the DOH Road Runner is coming out,I just hope they do it right this timeeven the 83 issue of the kit had the wrong dash and chassis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
