Cool stuff Kevin....what else is hiding out at your place....LOL...

Please don't think me rude, but I am unable to reply to your PM. I tried several times, but with no success. Looks like I’ll have to work out a few bugs here with my settings.

Regards,

Now we've cleared the decks after Christmas this was another gift from my youngest son. A '57 Chevy coaster, made of ceramic with a cork base to put my hot cups of tea or coffee on, rather that put rings on my model making table.

Found an original AMT '75 Corvette roadster on eBay. I'm HOPING the hood and front valence will fit the cherry AMT '73 coupe body I scored in a Vette Junkyard a couple years ago, which is missing those two vital items. If they're not direct bolt-on, I'll have to find a way to make 'em work. I really want a '73 Vette on the shelf (only year with the rubber front bumper but the original flat rear end with chrome bumpers--very cool looking).

'73 is last year until recently that I really liked Vettes. The front rubber bumper was okay. But, rubber bumpers on both ends, Vette styling was never the same again. Man, I miss chrome bumpers. Not just on Vettes, but on most everything.

So did the grocery stores "jack up" their prices as well. Everybody's got to make a living.

I know as well as anybody (retail for 15 yrs)

but Monogram kits for $42.00 ?

This kit for my upcoming 1:1 of my '82 Mustang GL came last night:

Along with the chrome modular wheels I found on ebay:

Man, having the 'net around is making this so much more fun and easy to find the stuff I really want. ;):D

Edit: Oh yeah, almost forgot. This showed up today as well (I got 2 - one for the bench, and one for the booth - which I still need to build):

Got the '51 Chevy hardtop body for the '50 Olds conversion; it'll be on the back burner for a while as I seem to be concentrating on the '60 Chrysler at the moment (modeler's ADD and all that).

I got these recently:

Can you show us more about the GTO? Put out by whom?

Scott

The GTOs are from Fujimi. Released a few years ago. There are probably builds here somewhere. I've only just started one so I won't have anything to show for a while. They are fantastic kits.

Had to get out of the house today and made a couple of stops. First place was a bust...no need to explain here as it wasn't model related. My second stop was at the new Hobby Lobby in the area. I had a 40% coupon through my phone, so I picked up the AMT "Christine" model. Ideally, I'd prefer it was molded in white, but it was the only one left and about the only kit that piqued my interest.
