i went by my local hobbytown today and say that the revell kits were on sale for $5! i got a datsun 510 and a 85 monte carlo ss . anyone built them? i would of got more but the other ones left were ones i have built of they were stupid. i though i would never grow a massive collection of unbuilt kits but im 15 and have about 30 [:p] most of them i got cheap at models shows though, lol [:p][:p][:p]
HEY,
Man i wish they even had model shows around here, but of course not. They dont have any hobby shops that sell models either, so i just have to wait on the new kits to come to wal-mart.lol

hey, walmart has some cool kits. i recommend the 3’ in '1 trans am, a great kit.
check out the group builds forum, there is a budget group build - you would be nicely placed for that group with $5 kits
i have the Datsun 510. for what its worth, its a good kit. its a little more detailed than Revell’s kits usually are (ie: it has a seperate gas tank) and its not that hard to fit a small-block Chevy in it .[:D] i havent built it yet, and ive never gotten the Monte. i would also recommend the '78 Trans Am 3 'n 1. taht was my first kit and ive developed a bond with it. well, gotta go. later.

yes, the datsun is a cool kit. i saw some pics online of some rally converted ones. this inspired me to make mine a rally car, im very excited about the kit.
As far as the datsun 510 kit, I know of people place the 350 into them…I was wondering if there is anywhere i could purchase a blown 350. I would like to build this kit but i am big on modifications. This would add a cool aspect to an okay kit. Thanks to all that can help.
thanks for the tip but i have to built it curbside due to some of the modifications i dot to it [:(]
