I went out to the garage to get the christmas tree box and started putzin around and came across a box i totally forgot about. I got these about 10-12 years ago and TOTALLY forgot them. Sorry i have no pics but heres the list

Lindberg 63 Mustang concept

AMT 62 Impala SS Conv. #8209

AMT Display case trailer #8216

Revell 70 AAR Cuda #7601 (which looks so much better then the new version out now)

MPC 71 Boss 351 Mustang #6249

Revell 87 Grand National #85-2497(which will be done as a T-Type)

Monogram Shelby GT-350R Mustang #2969

Monogram 69 GTO Judge #2443

AMT 67 Z-28 Camaro #6638

Monogram 1959 Impala hardtop #2454

Revell 64 chevy pickup #7613..

I will be busy for quite some time now that i found these again....Any one else ever have something similar happen to them?

Hey 82notch,

Excellent! What a great feeling. However I disagree about the AAR 'cuda.

This last summer I was looking for some household materials in a cabinet in my basement. I found a built, but disassembled Jo-Han 1969 Plymouth Belvedere GTX Hardtop, which I had built in 1969. (This is an extreamly uncommon (I hate the term "rare", as it's used for every item on E-Bay) kit to find. I simply stripped it with "Zep Concete Cleaner", purchased some new parts from "Modelhaus", and ordered the correct paint for it from "MCW". This kit's body is so much cleaner/crisper, and correct (especially the rear wheel openings!) then the inaccurate "AMT/Ertl/RC2" 90's offering! I guess this find is one of the advantages of buying the house that I grew up in. Now, if I could just find a box of old Jo-Han kits, whew! Fury3

I actually had the same happen with the original release revell AAR..

bought it when I was about 13, partially built it, painted it and screwed up the paint, sanded the old paint off, and ended up throwing it in a shoe box in my closet.

10 years later, as i was collecting some boxes of my childhood stuff from my parents after i got married, i found it, repainted and finished it.

thats so cool guys. All these kits are in the boxes unbuilt. I'm gonna start one tonight maybe the gt350 R...
