Miatatom Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Is there a list somewhere of the models that are curbside? Being relatively new to the hobby after a 50 year layoff, it sure would be nice to know which ones are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High octane Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 If you want a curbside model car, just glue the hood shut and build the rest of the kit. Curbside usually means no engine, and slammer or slammed usually means no engine or interior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miatatom Posted March 29, 2014 Author Share Posted March 29, 2014 Thanks for the reply. I know what a curbside model consists of but I'd just like to know what I'm getting before I buy it. The Fujimi GT 40 and Chrysler Concept Car are both curbside. I didn't know that when I bought them, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Kucaba Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 That's a good one. You would probably have to read all the magazine and online reviews to find out. I have never seen a list of curbsides and if anyone has else I'd like to see it too. A suggestion would be to ask here before making a purchase.

slusher Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 AMT has new curbside kits called show room replicas and are on the round 2 website and they are on the model roundup website also. I remember there is a 70 Buick wildcat that is a curbside and that would be a ebay kit and also AMT, did the Pontiac grand prix as a snap preprinted kit and a gt40 also hope this helps...

disabled modeler Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 70 Buick Wildcat 61 Ford Galaxie 72 Torino 74 AMX 78? Cadillac Coupe DeVille 62? Stude convertible 64 Galaxie might be fun to try and find some of these there older kits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik Smith Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Way too many to list - at least, reasonably. I would, as stated before me, google and read reviews before purchase. Also, some kits, like AMT 1964 Galaxie, came as a full detail and curbside, so...yeah - research tools are your best bet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
