Chuck Most Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 From the "Embarassment of Riches" Dept: From the USPS: Jimmy Flinstone '51 Buick and '51 Nash Sedan Delivery, plus a bonus Big Boy figure From Hulings Hobby House: Two AMT '25 Ford Model T kits From Some Guy: A leftover Fiat from a Double Dragster reissue.

oldscool Posted April 2, 2010 Posted April 2, 2010 (edited) I got the new release Revell California Wheels 57 Belair. I bought it mainly for the chrome reverse with moon wheels and am really disappointed these wheels are for the large diameter tires! . Oh well, another 57 Chevy is always good oldscool Edited April 4, 2010 by oldscool

I can't wait until it comes in! Sweet!! I had a chance to pick one up for $20 a few months back and should have got it, but the guy had some other models I wanted and at the time I couldn't get both.... But I'm re-building a glue bomb for a buddy and he said he had one that I could have for doing that for him......
tuffone20 Posted April 5, 2010 Posted April 5, 2010 Just received it in the mail today. I'd like to find one of those kits some time, as I've always wanted to build a model of the truck my brother has. Nice one!!!
Jordan White Posted April 5, 2010 Posted April 5, 2010 I'd like to find one of those kits some time, as I've always wanted to build a model of the truck my brother has. Nice one!!! They reissued it again. I got mine from Hobbylinc.com, so I would suggest checking out there first.
High octane Posted April 5, 2010 Posted April 5, 2010 I stopped at my LHS and picked up Revells 1/16th scale California Charger AA/FD for my old age.
Railfreak78 Posted April 5, 2010 Posted April 5, 2010 Nice score guys! I hope if they re-released that they will re-release the Dually. I once made a pro street one and would love to do it again. Oh today I got one of my Holy Grails Finally!

Wow is that from the Gordon's Hobbies we keep hearing about? if so it might be worth the 2446 mile hike. Edited April 5, 2010 by Dukefan69'
Railfreak78 Posted April 5, 2010 Posted April 5, 2010 No This one is not from Gordons however he does have some great stuff in there. This was an Ebay for $17 shipped. Clean inside and an extra hood and wheel set for a different version. There is a lot of older kits at Gordons though all the way through to the new release Zingers I want
