I was not really sad to get a good deal on this one considering how pricey and rare Jo-Hans are getting. Good score. those are getting hard to find.

This Ford landed today. I'm going to add the gasser parts from the wagon kit and hopefully come up with something like this classic I started out to use the #22 Fireball Roberts '57 kit as a base but It is missing a few key stock parts and can only be built as a race car out of the box.

Picked this unique item up at HL today on a 40% coupon. Looks like it will be handy sanding in tight spots. Possibly easier than wrapping sandpaper around a tooth pick LOL!

Cool. Never have seen one of those before. That could come in real handy.

Just got today my first eBay score, a Moebius' Golden Commandos '65 Satellite. I read that they made 1,500 copies of this kit and bunch of them was already bought by the Golden Commandos race team. So I had to buy mine before it was too late. Several companies offered pretty high shipping prices to Finland, but on eBay there was one listing with $22 shipping cost. That was in the right price range, so I ordered one. The kit is very nicely done as all Moebius kits are. Unfortunately though my body is pretty warped and at least the roof and front fenders need to be straightened out. I just hope I can pull it off...

Cool choices this time!!!! If that's the only Toronado Jo-Han came out with, I have it somewhere in my stash. They should've made a lot more of the Plymouth Golden Commandos kits. What were they thinking???!!! The old 1960 T-Bird I never saw in kit or built form. All very cool "got it" kits!

I was like a kid in a candy store the other day at Hobby Lobby. There were several more I could have gotten, but I really wasn't into the type of vehicles they were. I really couldn't pass up these prices! Anyway... 1957 Ford Wagon. I have the other version (cop car, Del Rio)so I figured I needed this one as well. 1950 Ford Convertible.
1958 Impala
2010 Challenger. I'm not really into new cars, but I have a couple of friends that have Challengers, and I may build it to match one of their cars.

Just got this beauty original '40 from fellow forum member Ed "krassandbernie" Fluck. I'm thrilled to have it and is a great addition to my collection as I didn't have one of these in this condition yet. ..and picked up this handy little tool at HL on a 40% coupon.

I've built a few in the past and I like to keep a good variety of stuff on my shelves. I kind of like this "drag" version here.....maybe my next box art build?.....hmmmmmm.
