I've always enjoyed building the Revell Acura Integra Type-R. Only problem. I can't find them anymore without giving away an arm and a leg.

Revell's Willys drag coupe , Revell's 32 Fords-any of em , Revell's 69 Novas , Revell's 49 Merc , Hey...there's a theme going on here!!! ?? :D

I'll vouch for all of the aforementioned kits !

Don't hold your breath waiting for the promotion check to show up though , you'll end up turning blue and hitting the deck first ! Lmao !

There are a lot of kits that I like. One I have built a lot of, or used the parts out of is the AMT '67 Chevy Impala SS427

.

Whether it was built out of the box...

The Chassis, Floorboard and driveline are in these two, which started out as pristine, unbuilt kits.

This AMT '67 body has been modified into a '68. I have to finish it one of these days, once I decide on the color combination, and wheels.

Tamiya 1/12 Porsche 935 for sure; closely followed by the 934, and the 1/12 Mini cooper. The 1/6 Honda CB 750 is right at the top of the list as well..............Matt

JoHans Mercedes Benz kits, AMT 53 Studebaker, AMT 58 Chevy, AMT 40 Fords, IMC 48 Ford, IMC Mark IV and J car, AMT and Revell 57 Chevys. None of those live in my collection now as they were built when I was a teen or younger. Can't forget those Renwal 66 Revival kits, too. I am amassing them now to build again.

29 Ford from amt offers great choices of

engines, frames and bodies (the LHS

sells these on clearance for $14.99)

32 Ford series from revell have been fun to work with,

have doubled-up boxes of the coupe to save shelf space.

37 Ford coupe and sedans also by revell have great suspension and frame detail-

good platform for other projects, and,

there's a group of 40 amt and 41 willys kits here on the shelf.

All those kits and so little _______.

I've built at least 40 JoHan Heavenly Hearses, and still have 10 more to build, and 3 that need finishing.

We need pictures. I just gotta see that! :)

Wish they could find the tooling for that kit!!

Or some one was Crazy enough to reverse engineer it, or tool

up an all new version of it!!

* Tamiya '66 Beetle

* AMT Meyers Manx

I currently have 3 or 4 of the various Revell '32 Fords in the works, so I figure those oughta make the list.

As a kid I didn't duplicate build very much.I can think of a couple of AMT '40 Fords and '66 Mercurys but little else.As an adult(OK,a kid in an adult's body) I've managed to accrue multiples of several kits (few of which are built yet)-the Revell/ Monogram '55-56-57 Chevys and '49 Mercury, several versions of the Peugeot 206 rally car from Tamiya and Heller(some built) and I'm sure several more that currently escape my sieve-like brain but on quick thought the most I have of one one type of model is the Porsche 956/962 with about 13 of them.I have MANY more Ferraris but they run the gamut of many different model types.
