Jared Roach Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 Well I went to my lhs looking for a 99 silverado, didn't find that but apperently the manager Is slowly thinning out his colection (he told me he had about 150 kits and he says he brings home a couple every time they get more kits in) and I found these two so I'm EXTREMLY happy!! the daytona is going to be a replica of my mom's 90 she used to own, the funny thing was that she loved it, and my dad hated it!

JamesW Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 The mailman has been good to me over the last couple days. I got this one in a trade on the "other" forum. And I got this one from our very own doublej. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisPflug Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 Been meaning to build one or two of these since the "purple car" issue first came out but just now got around to getting a couple Also found another orphan Mopar project, love the way they look but don't understand why the MPC Dusters are so hard to find at a decent price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casey Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 What's the story on the offset cowl hood scoop? Is that a one-off piece? I picked up a Revell '71 GTX from Michael's a few minutes ago for $9.99 - 40% off (I guess it does work on cleanrance priced items), so $6.00 or so. Score!

Eric Stone Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 ...all these people who think the war didn't last long enough. That's hilarious!

RodneyBad Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 aww ive been looking for that 58 Well it's diffenitly a rebuilder. Outside of the hood missing, and maybe a Lil piece or two and no decals. It was a pre painted kit, assembled and then disassembled.?? The Baldwin Motion Camaro is the same way but has hood.
