Hi guys --
For those of us of a certain age (old), the old kits have the distinctive
smell of the hobby shops of our youth. I have two kits that I use as
reminders – open the box, take a sniff and enjoy the hobby (no, there is no
glue in the box!)...
I do have old kits because I DO intend to build them. The one I don't have
and would like to have is a pickle vat car, so that will be a scratch
project. The old kits I build generally are not built with all the
original wood. A bit of research, sometimes requiring surgery to get the
correct height or length, and some plastic or other appropriate materials
not available when the kit was manufactured are added to make a more
accurate model.
Have fun!

....if a kit is 40+ years old and is still a box of sticks why is the new
owner "going to be the one" to make it into a car? ....Is anyone here buying
them?
