Ramblings about vintage kits and an update on my buddy build with Larry from

I have an unhealthy love of vintage model kits and sometimes it catches me out. Showing you one of the worst ones I’ve ever had. And we got the paint job finished on this March 88C that we’re building with Larry from ‪@LarrysModelShop‬ Thanks Larry!!

The Indy car paint is lookin' good. I sent you an email about that Jaguar, I have parts.👍👍

I built one of the XKEs, probably in the 1980s. It's a multi-piece body so the lower part of the body / doors is separate and part of the chassis, and a pain to paint. That's what I remember from the kit. The body was made that way because originally the kit was sold in a flat box and that's what they did to make it fit. I think it's an original Aurora mold maybe? I don't remember any other issues with it though. That Indy car looks like a giant Ice Pop frozen snack LOL

Cool video Kyle. Man, I'd be like running away from that Jaguar. So much tired burn everywhere. Indy car is looking good. I should be getting some work done in mine. Dog sitting Daisy can sometimes be a bit much, she likes a lot of attention sometimes.

@@LarrysModelShop thanks Larry!! Yeah, I don’t have any plans to use these parts. I’ll try to source a rebuilder glue bomb or maybe get lucky and find a hood section somewhere. The glass part won’t matter as that’s just the optional hardtop. I’ll just use the down top and not worry about it. Tires will likely be from the aftermarket or maybe I’ll try to resin cast these. Never tried that before. And I know dog sitting can be a lot of work!! I should be further on mine too but no hurry for either of us! Just figured I’d show the paint off before I decaled.
