Here are some goodies that I scored today at the IPMS swap meet here in Indy.I left a few things off of my finds today because some scores may be used on other boards upcoming "anonymous"contest material......Maybe........Maybe not!

Original Dragon Wagon builder.....I spent an hour cleaning her up this afternoon:

$5 for these two Tom Daniel snap kit bodies,and one incomplete funny car chassis:

Part of the Dragon wagon "bundle" LOL

This ones in my freezer now......It will become a "Grumpy's Toy" pro street Vega! Not a bad builder,but ohhh,that old glue was used to assemble it!!!! Yikes!

These last three are big scale Thunderbirds that I bought in a lot.....Oh,and all of these Thunderbirds are for sale!!!!

Here is the original AMT big scale ugly duckling Thunderbird!!!! This two tone build is downright hideous to look at!!!!!!

The black Thunderbird has potential.....Someone had a nice start on it,and they stopped....I don't know why......talk about "Finish What Ya Started"
LOL!

Nice scores here ! I'm jealous on that yellow Mustang 2- mine came in red (yuck) which is probably why I've never built it. If you're restoring the Fake out, Bob made a killer repro set for me; I'm sure he still has it on file .
The Remember when finding a Dragon Wagon like that could cost you $100.00 or more on Ebay ? How things have changed !!

I'm looking for old kits to restore!

These items were NOT found at a flea market.It was at a modelers swap meet/contest.I found these items in the vendors area which is even more shocking considering the amount of Armour/Tank/plane builders that this swap meet is hosted by. Most of the modelers builds on the contest tables were military and or plane builds.
Sorry if I misled you guys into thinking this swap meet was a flea market.This is one of three modelers Swap meets/contests that roll thru Indy every year.
