RobbieThere wouldn't be by chance a AMT 5115-150 1965 FALCON FUTURA SPRINT Convertible buried in there somewhere you might want to part with ? 8D

Robert W MartelWOW, I recognize a lot of those kits! Didn't think they could be stacked so high without getting crushed !!
15 May 2018, 05:36
Bob HallNo,No tanks just good ol fashion Muscle Cars ! 25 years in the Army sorta burned me out on Tanks and Military hardware,but I do enjoy fine works of art you all create !
3 July 2018, 23:45
GlennI recognize quite a few of these as being in my stash! Few mustangs in there! 🙂

Andy W.Hi Robert. Can you tell me how you managed to take pictures of my stash??? Seriously, it's like im looking on my stash. A lot of nice kits i own too.
4 July 2018, 06:05
Martin OostromLuckily it's just boxes stacked 19 high and not the cars.
Robert, is there a manufacturer of kits that you recommend for 50's and 60's era US cars? Or one to avoid?
6 January 2019, 09:57
Bob Hall@Martin - I guess it depends on what your looking to build, I prefer the Revell "Special Edition" kits, AMT and MPC kits are shotty at best, especially the older kits. Moebius is supposed to be high quality and fit.
6 January 2019, 20:13
Martin OostromThat's an answer I can use! Avoid AMT/MPC unless they are the only one offering a specific car. Thanks 👍
6 January 2019, 20:22
Bob HallI'd have to be Tony Stark or Bill Gates or something ! But it's fun to dream ! LOL 🙂
6 January 2019, 20:35
Bob Hall@ Tom - And that's just the tip of the iceberg the Revell's, the AMT/MPC's are put up. Stats say I have 488 different kits, but I have oodles of some of the same. (1969 Bullitt Mustang 14 of them/ 2008 Bullitt Mustang 15 of them and so on and so fourth, so if you see something you want PM me I probably have multi of it.
@ Thomas - I'm guessing that's BMW M5 ? All I do all day is pull over speeders so I'm guessing that it has some serious get up and go power !
6 January 2019, 22:29
Thomas K.@Robert: This is not a BMW! i live in the near of Ingolstadt; it is a Audi TT quattro S-Line Competition, a very nice and fast Car! 😉
7 January 2019, 15:12
M MWow that really is a lot of kits. First off thank you for your service! Second I want to build a Shelby GT350, do you think the AMT or the Revell offerings are better?
7 January 2019, 19:35
Bob Hall@ Martin..... Doing nothing wrong if your getting better than 17 miles to the gallon, and I won't even ask about the Insurance,if I told you what it was a year, would make you cry. So that's why this stays stored and is 11 years old and has less than 4000 Miles on it. I do love that Blue, Mazda ? looks clean very nice.
@MM- Definitely go with the Revell if possible. better fit and detail

Check out my SHELBY Album,I'll post a few more I did later.

Thomas K.@Robert: only a Ford Mustang Shelby! my dreamcar! I love the muscle cars from USA. 😉
7 January 2019, 21:36
Martin OostromMy car is a Seat Leon ST, with a whopping 3 cylinder, 1 litre engine, churning out 115hp.
I can't outrun your pony, but I might outdistance it 😄
7 January 2019, 22:52
Bob HallNot going to deny that ! It's the one thing most other cars can do,pass up more gas stations. Shes a pump sucker and can only use premium gas, but I've had her up over 180 MPH before,had the Electronic restricter removed and tuned.
7 January 2019, 22:58
Tom ...It figures. Robert drives as fast as he builds... 180 models per hour... Gives new meaning to hot glue...
7 January 2019, 23:47
Chris GreathouseI like people who rip out their governors... much more fun to drive with 🙂
8 January 2019, 00:14
Bob HallReally ! Whats the Point of owning a Shelby, if It tells you how fast you can go !
8 January 2019, 02:00
Bob HallI'm Trying to get the State slogan changed to " Here' Hold my Beer and watch this ! "
8 January 2019, 02:11
Michael Hickeyit's slow down under, here we can only legally do 110klm per hour, and that's on an expressway. I think in the outback they still have some areas were the speed limit is unlimited.
8 January 2019, 03:55
Thomas K.i have no limit, often! 😉 MaxSpeed 260 km/h Tacho (252 kmh lt. carpaper with "only 211 hp! 🙂
8 January 2019, 21:22
Thomas K.i think 0-100 km/h in 5,7 sec is ok! 😉 the car is very cheap in service and tax.
9 January 2019, 15:03
MunkyslutBob has the horsepower war won! That's a lot of ponies from your Pony!
My daily only has 200 horses but it'll destroy everything 😉
4 July 2019, 20:33
MunkyslutYou have an awesome stash Bob! ......do you still buy or are you now working your way thru the stock?
4 July 2019, 20:50
Nathan DempseyI stopped by Hobby Lobby and picked up a Viking Ship on sale from $30 to $7.50. It'll be a great experiment in painting wood.
5 July 2019, 17:35
Chris GreathouseStupid Christian store! Not the Christians, the store... Closed on Sundays for "family time"... If you own a big box store, you'd want it open as much as possible to get that $bank$. They have a ton of other weird oddities, but they're the only kit shop within 30 miles so I guess I'll keep my mouth shut 😛 😄 😛
7 July 2019, 19:52
Nathan DempseyWill do. I still need to pick up some of the AK paint/weathering sets but I just blew all my extra $ on that ICM 1:48 Do217N.
7 July 2019, 20:23
MunkyslutWell done Bob, that's a proper score!
Not sure about the Moon Eyes 55 Vette or the fugly 72 LeMans but the Crown Vic is freakin' awesome!
1 November 2019, 21:21
Bob HallThe Vette can be built stock, so that was the saving grace and the GTO I didn't have one. The rest just couldn't pass up for the price.
1 November 2019, 21:27
Chris GreathouseThose trucks and trailer are around $40 a pieces... and $25 each for the 4 cars... $220 for $70. That's an awesome score man!
1 November 2019, 21:32
MunkyslutTo be fair the 71-72 Lemans weren't that bad, just n where near as beautiful as the 68-69 & 70 cars were. I had a 73 LeMans with a 400 from a69 Goat & a Turbo400, positrac etc was a proper hoot, I was 19.
The truck kits look awesome!
1 November 2019, 21:33
Tim HeimerTo funny Munky, I had the 73 grand am with the same set up and it was a hoot!
1 November 2019, 21:37
MunkyslutExcellent Tim! I loved the early Grand Prix & the later Grand Am, I really fancy a a 76 Can Am
1 November 2019, 21:53
Bob Hall72-73 was the end of the truly great American muscle cars, DAMN GAS SHORTAGE !
1 November 2019, 22:07
Munkyslut72 spealt death to high compression, big lumpy cams & dual quads, I think life as we know it stopped then!
1 November 2019, 22:11
MunkyslutHaaaha! I have to admit if someone offered me a MachII with a 302 in it & Shelby stripes I'd have a hard time saying no
1 November 2019, 22:27
Tim HeimerMunky, I owned one that got totaled in an accident! ! of 1100 can ams gone! That was sad!
2 November 2019, 02:25
Bob HallLooks like you could get it in any color you wanted,as long as it was white ! LOL
2 November 2019, 18:56
Tim HeimerActually there are either 7 or 8 in orange. But yes, they be all white!
3 November 2019, 00:30
MunkyslutTim, I think Lindberg made a plastic kit of a Grand Am, not quite the Can Am but just as interesting
3 November 2019, 10:39
Bill NewcomerTin, they did in 1/32 Ebay.com Item - 1975 Pontiac Grand Am 1 32 scale Lindberg 364 assembled Free Shipping
3 November 2019, 16:15
MunkyslutAh good I wasn't just dreaming it up then?
For a minute there I thought I must stop drinking that floor cleaner........
3 November 2019, 19:46
Nathan DempseyHmm I may have to stop by there tomorrow. I had an Escalade on my wish list.
24 October 2020, 01:49
Nigel ChapmanImpressive stash Bob. So is the intention to eventually build all the kits or keep them as a potential investment?
That's the stash dilemma I have especially with the rare items.
24 October 2020, 06:40
Danny MeerVery nice stash! 👍 This is a great excuse for me to expand my stash 😄
@Nigel, have the same thing with some of the kits in my stash, some are so rare that you can't find them or you have to pay alot of cash
24 October 2020, 07:51
Bob HallA little bit of both, I have more kits than I know what to do with. Think I need to start thinning the herd.
24 October 2020, 08:02
Danny MeerIf you would only have 1 of every kit, how much will there be left? 😛 I have only 1 kit double of my 62 kits in stash
24 October 2020, 15:39
Bob HallAccording to the stats list, I have 848 kits and 660 are of a single listing, so I guess I have 220+ in duplicate kits.
24 October 2020, 21:09
MunkyslutBloody hell Bob that's one impressive stash!!!!
98% are Stangs......... 😄
24 October 2020, 21:57
Bill NewcomerSo you have 848 kits and you build 20 a year that is 42 years of building. (assuming of course you do not buy anymore). I think you need an intervention LOL
25 October 2020, 03:54
Christian WoO holy moly. Reminds me on my stash. Not that weappons 😄 but the kits. I like your weapons too 😄
16 July, 09:48
Bob HallI scaled my weapons down, I gave the M4, 1911, the AK and the Draganov to oldest son. Still have the models,but looking to thin those out too.
