Here is my Revell "amazing Moon Mixer" build.The kit was made in 1970.I applied Testors clear red enamel paint over the body and fender parts.The rest of the build has various Duplicolor spray paint colors,including a gloss acrylic white laquer on the mixer parts.Had to mask off the seats before the black interior background color was applied.It was a finicky little build,but I had fun building it! It definitely took a lot of patience to complete this one.

Thanks for looking!

1976 MPC 'The Fonz and his bike'
The bike,a 1949 TR5 square cylinder Triumph Trophy,could have been a 'stand-alone' kit with a bit of finessing by MPC? A lot of stuff had to be made or modified, instruments, engine components etc & a bit of time taking the slip-mold fatness out of his head.

Johan '64 Dodge drag car ; originally this was the Ramcharger kit, but by the 70's it became the "Recharged" . Like many Johan kits , there was a lot of flash to remove ;the instructions fail to mention you need to cut out the inner wheel wells for the headers ,so I took the kit apart again ! For some reason the kit also gives you two cheesy plastic axles to use which, unless you bore a hole though the engine block, it wont work so I found some wheel pins from the parts bin . The chrome was poor too, but I was able to use the parts from the parts car I had. The decals I won on Ebay never arrived, so she's a nameless drag car for the moment. Paint is Rustoleum Gloss white and cleared.

I'm looking for old kits to restore!

Count Dragula: Attention!!! We are going to have another contest starting in June! I think everyone will love the theme! May 2, 2023 19:10:37 GMT -5 *
