Yes, she is pretty pricey, I did manage to get my last two 1/12's on sale I am getting hooked on the larger scale cars and unfortunately 1/16, 1/12 and 1/8 comes at a price I keep saying no more kits, then find something else that catches my fancy and of we go again:)

GLMFAA1 Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 The Sherman tank during WWII had a radial engine version http://www.jeepcity.co.uk/imagelib/sitebuilder/misc/show_image.html?linkedwidth=actual&linkpath=http://www.jeepcity.co.uk/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/jeep123456.JPG&target=tlx_picpidx greg
Jairus Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 (edited) If any of you guys bothered to subscribe to the Model Cars Magazine ( the source that provides this play room) you would see that I did a Sketchpad article about the very subject of this thread. Too bad few of you will pay the entry fee. But, I will post a picture of this street rod I started quite a few years ago. Revell '32 Roadster frame with Monogram wheels and tires. The engine is a scratch built replica of a General Stuart medium battle tank. Tried multiple positions and never finished it. Shame you guys won't see the cool Sketchpad article tho....

More like a hot-rod wood chipper. Great way to get rid of the kids, and make concealment of the little corpses easier. Kiddie mulch. Edited February 8, 2015 by Ace-Garageguy

Sheesh, talk about a ego. Good lord, lighten up. $40 to some is a fair amount of change, and they would rather invest it into kits, paint, etc, or they dont have it at all.

Agent G Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 Our resident "artist emeritus" has again made an appearance. This time inserting unnecessary comments in what could have been an inspirational post. G
Guest Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 Yeah, that is one of the worst posts I have seen him do. I do not understand the animosity in it.
landman Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 I see my quote comment didn't print again. Is that Allison kit still available?

Usually available NOS or used on ebay as that particular kit for between $10-$30, and in the old AMT 8158 "Blueprinter" parts pack. It also comes in the AllisonThunderland funny car kit, this older-issue AMT parts-pack, and the more recent multi-engine pack below (TDR also offers a 1/8 scale 3D printed version for under $300, if you want to go big): Edited February 8, 2015 by Ace-Garageguy

This needs to be finished Jairus. And I have been getting Model Cars Mag from day one, and still have them all. How about a Mid Engine roadster? Edited February 8, 2015 by 1930fordpickup
