My slow boat from China came in a bit earlier than expected! I'll be building this beast (the box is bigger than the Hobby Boss P-61!) as California Cutie from the recent Kagero book:

Wouter- Tires look too clean... need me to send you more pigments? Great looking car!
Doogs- I hope to see that built soon... looks like a great kit! Dig your choice for this too.

Great stuff fellas! Tony: What a great bunch of stuff! Love it! Wouts: Love the wheels! Superfly! Doogs: Love it when something comes sooner than expected! Nice kit:) Allright guys. I totally scored yesterday. Town-wide sales in my little village.... !0$$$$!!!!!! I ordered a hose today from testors. I'm gonna try it out as a spare/extra AB and see if I like it. Wait for it...wait for it. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 5$!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There are about four complete kits here and tons of extra parts. I still gotta go through it and sort it properly! The Cat has two fully (and very cleanly) kits in it and misc parts as well. I'll be painting that one to try out some rusting and weathering! I was so thrilled! The guy was a sweet old guy (around 70ish) and was clearing stuff out, he says he has about 200 hundred other kits in his basement as well. Also, gave him my number and asked him to call me if he wanted to get rid of anymore:). I shot the breeze with him about modeling for fifteen minutes or so. Made a friend:) I also bought a really nice antique four drawer tool box for 30$. Score of the century!!!

Nate,what a score!I built the Kenworth and the White kits back when I was a teen ager.They where the first things I ever painted with an air brush.Came out like crap .They where pretty nice kits if I remember right.If any of those kits are first issue they have to be 40-45 years old.Boy am I dating myself or what Jeff T.

Very nice score! I use the metal-body version of the Aztek for all of my AB work and love it. Very easy to maintain and has good weight/balance as well.

Some nice purchases there fellas....I've picked up a few bit and bobs lately but this one is my newest purchase (Wouts - Great minds think alike!!!) Not necessarily model-related but I tell yer what can I fit some model show shopping in the back..... Audi A6 Avant 2.7 V6 Turbo Diesel - she's called Heidi (YD and German - get it?) Mmmmmmmm horsepower OMG, now I'm jalous!!!! Over here it's quite expensive to keep a 2,7 on the road so I had to do it with the 2.0 edition...was initially going for the petrol version, but since that got 177BHP it was even more expensive tax wise... . What can I say: it's plain luxury and a great drive though, you'll have lots of fun with it mate! Great hauls again here btw, that P-38 seems like an interesting kit! Cheers

Having been to the same venue as Dicky,and a coupla other fellas from MSC,I thought it was my DUTY to support the host club,and the Vendors by parting with some of my hard earned 'No Smoking' cash....... The above motors are what I bought,along with the following,which are in the Marital home as Raffle prizes... Oh,and just to add to those,I did ACTUALLY get called for 4 raffle prizes.....One I declined,two wingies I took,to pass on,and one has already appeared in this thread recently!!!
