I will when I get a chance... ICM kits are really nice, that WWI Ambulance I built was theirs and I have a Model T fire engine to build as well.

Still no real urge to build but I did finally break down and buy this 1/18 replica of James Dean’s Porsche. Finally found one for less than $220 and shipping from outside the US.

You don’t have to build it upside down do you? 😂😂😜 build it upside down.. c'mon Marty, next you will wanna know if he is going to put a "lean" on it when he builds it.... anyways, hope you got it at a discount cause they printed the box the wrong way.

Where did you get those, Al? I might be interested in a '66 Coronet. Is it available in a two door hardtop version?

Mopar asked what was in the boxes so here you go: This is what's in the boxes: They both use the same running gear and many parts are the same. The actual vehicles body is different... and the figures are also...

That reminds me of the weird-ohs kit I didn’t finish for the guy who died last year.

Very cool Marty!!! I got some primer but not going to bore you with posting it!!! LOL!!! Joe have you had any problems with finding primer. Are Hobby Lobby’s here are out of it and can’t say when they will get more. I actually buy my primer at my local auto stores as I use Duplicolor sandable primers in white, grey and black for only $6.99 a can which does a lot of car bodies for one can... it is www.oreillyauto.com/search?q=duplicolor+primerMuch better quality and you can use lacquers, acrylics or enamels over it with no problems... The nearest Hobby Lobby to me is over 80 miles away and my local auto parts store is only 15 miles from home and has what I need at better prices then Wally World for the good stuff that beats Rustoleum any day of the week!!! Another tip for you, I just ordered some AMMO by MIG Sprays - TITANS HOBBY: TRANSPARENT MATT VARNISH / BASE & also GLOSS VARNISH which says right on the cans ONLY FOR EUROPE on them and you can't get them shipped directly from Spain to the US... I found a new site in Florida that carries them for $16.75 each and ships them on this side of the pond... I need them between my paint job and weathering products of his I use so they don't strip off the paint layers and allows for fine tuning of the weathering products or even removal without having to strip to bare plastic and start all over again... spraygunner.com/Got them in a little over a week from ordering... fast and friendly service...
