Especially since Tamiya made a very nice full detail kit of the Europa and it usually sells for less money than that.

At the big local flea market, I have a bad habit of buying any scale models I see. Just to give them a good home, I guess.  I'm trying to break that habit, and it may be working.

Recently I passed on an ENTEX 1/20 scale Porsche 914, which was originally a Bandai kit.  Also an old Tamiya 1/20 Formula 1 car.  Don't remember which one.  The seller seemed open to negotiation. But both kits were partially built, Glue-Bomb Style, and might have been missing parts.  The 914 also had a cracked body. So I managed to leave them on the table.

Around here, we have a bunch of antique stores and also a bunch of thrift/junk stores. The only difference seems to be the prices.

67 Falcon with a custom grille, and what looks to be a 66 Nova rear bumper. Missing the taillights. I'll be picking it up soon and, perhaps, building a custom out of it.

Later-

Now that ☝️Is cool! I never knew anybody did a Cunningham. Is there any chance of seeing more detail of what's in the box?

The '60 Dodge is a great find!

Not easy to to find, or cheap.

And it looks like it's in great shape!

Lucky find on the '62 Newport! Are you missing anything, and did you get all the pieces of the windshield frame?

Been wanting to cast those wheelcovers for my Metalflake builder.
