Had a heck of a time with the decals, they were old and the edges kept tearing loose when I was aligning them. Had to do several modifications (cutting,sanding & cursing)to get the stance right. I have to more modifications to get the body to pivot up for display. Thanks for checking it out!
I’ve got a couple areas that need paint touch ups but for the most part she’s done.
Hello, has anyone out there put this bad-boy together? The box it came in is very small, but it has lots of parts trees in it, I mean like this thing has a lot of pieces. I can’t find the actual part count but dam!
It’s a screw-down, another first for me. I had to purchase the instructions off of eBay, that is supposedly all that’s missing.
It has the option to be converted into a slot racing car as well.
Hmmmmm. This is a wild kit and I haven’t even started putting it together yet!
Still sealed, I am not planning on opening this one…….yet. Although it does look like a cool kit. Anyone out there put this together before?
Man-oh-man am I excited!
I received these 3 beauties in the mail today. Won them on shopgoodwill.com, they have some good stuff over there, check them out sometime.
The only problem I see so far is that the ‘64 hardtop marauder is missing instructions.
I’m trying to figure out how to get my primer/paint to dry quicker. A dehumidifier is ideal I hear, but what about using a hair dryer?
What are you guys doing? What type of humidifier is good?
I’m using rust-oleum primer out of the can and I use CREATEX paint with an airbrush.
Long post, sorry,
I started working on a 66 Malibu SS last night and ran into a problem. I wanted to use white primer on this car and it’s white styrene so I wouldn’t be able to see where and how much I have applied.
The solution I came up with was to put marks on it with a DRY ERASE marker so I could see where I’ve painted and how much I’ve applied.
I thought it may be a good solution to prevent several coats of primer. I put it on a Facebook model group to get some feedback before I actually did it. I got some ideas on how others deal with this problem and I was told what a bad idea it was and that I should remove the marker due to bleed through.
I ended up leaving the dry eraser marks on the car, putting a coat of gray primer on first, then a coat of white primer. I’m not seeing any bleed through yet.
My thinking is this: this car will eventually end up with 2 coats of primer now, and 2 or 3 coats of paint. I really don’t think it’s going to bleed through. Although if it does, I’ll strip it and not use a marker in this situation ever again.
Anywho, just wanted to share this with y’all. Have a good day.
I’m putting together the 30 car set of VINTAGE RACING. 9 down, 21 more to go!
Found this jewel at target this evening. This thing is pretty sweet.
I didn’t really know that majorette was trying to be a player in the 1/64 die cast realm.
I gathered all of my red line club cars together and put them in one box (for now) I have 40 exactly. How many do you have?
