Got another grail a few days ago but it's still in the US waiting for my "middleman" to ship it to me.

Got another grail a few days ago but it's still in the US waiting for my "middleman" to ship it to me. It looks like you might be getting some Royal Rail type tires in there, and maybe not all the original tires. This issue kit has six wheels/tires with the two center tires that are smaller. I have some extra tires and wheels from this kit that I got in a junk lot I purchased. When you get it, check it out, and see if it's all there.

Looks like there is two of the chrome tree and maybe two of some of the body parts. I'm wondering if a previous owner may have had a partial original kit and added a second one.

Yesterday I went with my son at a garage sale and came home with modelkits, they were offered so cheap that I just had to buy them... DAMN !! .... Those are some Really Nice Scores Bobby ! ! ! .. I especially like those two 1/16th Rails, and the Norton, My closest Friend has a Real Norton Commando, Just Like That. Awesome.

-ALThanks, Al, yes, in fact, the bike is great and I would also like to own one... And look here, also the model kit is great, very detailed, Airfix, 1979, over 350 parts, only the decals do not look very great and useful... ... and, hey, here's a little comparison, the largest model box that I have ever had in my stash...

Bobby, the Norton was originally a Heller kit but the Airfix version has much better box art! Sadly, Airfix didn't offer the other versions of the same kit (the SS, Hi-Rider etc) but it's a great kit nonetheless.
I might have a spare set of the tank decals if you need them (not sure about the side panels though), drop me a PM if they'd be any use to you.

Thank you very much for the info and for your great offer, Harley, but at the moment I do not think to build this one soon...

I really like the Honest Engine Gerry, but its too expencive for me. at least the ones I have seen for sale... I got a hold on another of my holy grails.... The final "Early Iron" series model I have been looking for, the ´36 Ford coupe. I really love the 70 ties look on the Early Iron series rods, especially this one, and the lime green ´34 coupe. The will both be built box stock...

I have been looking for this since I found out it existed. I don't know how I missed these as a kid! I have only seen two on that internet auction site. I got way outbid both times. This one was listed at BIN. More then I wanted to pay but less then 1/2 of the others I saw go for. Eldon Dodge Deora HO Model Kit! They call it a pick up truck. Yes I HAD to open the factory sealed package! WAAAAYY back when these were 2 for $0.66!!!! My plan was to convert it to a slot car, but it will take a lot of modification. More then I thought it would. So my plan now is to learn how to resin cast and modify the copies to mount on a slot car chassis. Marty Marysville, OH Marty & Doc in the morning WQTT 1270 qt1270.com/

my latest bounty Man, I wouldn't want to be that guy in the white coupe- He got hit so hard his body is coming through the roof ! I always thought that was a wild idea for a kit, but I've never seen a complete unbuilt one before Amazingly they got the car wrong. .Its a 1956 .It must have been so beat up they couldn't recognize it anymore LOL!

I lost my entire collection of Car Model and Model Car & Science during a move 30 plus years ago so I thought this was an easy way to replace part of it . I've read lots of negative comments about this CD but after spending some time looking at it I have to disagree with them . It's probably got more nostalgic value than anything but there's still a lot of good stuff in those old magazines and I really enjoy seeing the old advertisements too ! It was worth the price !
