@@sodakmodelcars Cheers Adam, definitely a load more to get through... Even with all the videos I did in succession I don't think I even scratched the surface 😂
Hi John, great to see another great video, sounds .like you are really having clear out , I will have a look at the shop, no worries John I personally will always check out your videos, sometimes we all get busy doing other things ,all the best Martin
@@martindaredare Thanks Martin, that means a great deal mate. Unfortunately like you say life just gets busy and some things just have to take priority from time to time but will keep coming back regardless. Thanks again for all the support Martin and hopefully speak soon 🙂
Another great video John. Always loved the full size gm cars,1959 to 1967 are my favourites.ive had a few in my time.anyway thanks for posting and take it easy mate. Ps thanks for the shop card. Laurie.
@@LaurieEdwards-mg2gt thanks Laurie 🙂 I'll hopefully be working through more GM stuff throughout the week so should always be something in there of interest coming up. Glad you liked the shop card and many thanks again for everything, speak soon mate 🙂
@@MrModelworx Cheers Gary 🙂 yeah that villa Riviera is a really nice survivor, I decided when taking pics that whether I keep that one or not the display stand belongs with it as it looks great on there. Really need to get one actually built, hopefully will get round to at least doing that Corgi combo recreation at some point. And will drop you a message this week on the olds and get it sent out to you. Hope you're a bit more settled in anyways mate 🙂
@@richardrickmason6456 Hi Rik, thanks mate... Was good to get a video out and hopefully get back into some kind of rhythm again with it all. Hope you're keeping well too mate and speak soon no doubt 🙂
John awesome video as always brother and please don't sell off to many, because they are getting so hard to come by and to get back as well if you ever decide that you want them again 😢! I love seeing you restore or customize these vintage kits and there's not that many people doing it anymore and I so look forward to watching you do that on your videos 😀 and hopefully one day I'll get you over here to the US ❤😊
@@thescalemodelcarguychannel8681 Don't worry Shawn, whatever I don't sell before Christmas will be staying and holding on to far too many already, couldn't face putting any of my favourites on like the imperials/Lincoln's (plus many others 😂) etc and will still end up keeping some really nice old stuff. Just need to cull a lot and make it more manageable to enjoy what I have. I've actually grown back into monogram 80s stuff like the pro-stocks and pro-streets of that era, even those 3in1 kits like the camaros and Firebirds for some reason, guess it's just a box art thing that reminds you of when things were simpler (terrible as some of those were) and things like that seem rarer than the vintage stuff us old fuddy duddys like haha 😂. I really want to get back to the routes of the channel in restoring some of the older stuff, but selling the ones I'll never do now is just a part of that process. I think mixing work with pleasure over the last couple of years has been a big factor so I'll be just doing a 9-5 next year and get back to enjoying what we love doing best, the problem is I've already added another 50 projects to the list just sorting through it all 😂. Good to be back anyways and thanks again for all your support ❤️
@J.B.Scale.Creations I love you brother and I'm glad to hear that you won't be getting rid of all of them and your my favorite channel and I absolutely look forward to seeing what you build 😀 ❤️
@@andyr5579 Hi Andy, thanks mate that means a great deal 🙂 just had a few things I had to deal with unexpectedly which completely took the wind out of my sails so just concentrated on having a clear out to keep my mind off things. I should have been making videos on some of the stuff that has gone in the meantime to keep up on content but unfortunately I couldn't focus properly and knew it would come across in any videos. Hopefully get back in the swing of things now, already have a few more videos lined up so good to finally get back on here. Hope you're keeping well anyways mate 🙂
Good to hear from you John!! No worries about the absence. Gets us all from time to time. We’ll be here whenever you drop in. I love it when you show off these old kits and bodies. Very cool stuff. But I’d also love to see you building more. You do outstanding work. I love wagons and hardtops. And That hearse is a neat start. Very unique. The Invictas are awesome!! I’ve never had one of those flat boxes but they’re super neat. I can see where they’d be hard to store. I just love Buicks too, especially older ones like the early rivieras and those Invictas. You always show off the best stuff. And the best box arts. It’s always enjoyable to hear your plans on building them too. Going to have to try to find a Skylark rebuilder. Didn’t know the modified stocker had some of the stock stuff still in it, although that does make complete sense. What a great way to fix up a rebuilder. Great video, my friend. Thanks for sharing. On to the next one!!
@@kyledehartsscaleworks Hi Kyle, really glad you enjoyed this one too. I think the first Skylark and Invicta I had were direct from the states when I was buying in collections of builders of eBay many moons ago now it seems. I must admit I had to stop looking at eBay U.S because it got so expensive shipping over here in the end that it would double the cost of any auction end prices, sometimes triple. I am always a bit envious of seeing videos of swap meets as I see so many builders and kits I'd love to get hold of, would definitely be fun to experience that one of these days but I know I would put myself into serious debt haha if I did 😂 I think the hearse will be a great build too, actually looking forward to that though when that will be who knows, it's definitely something I'm planning on getting back to and really appreciate your kind words on what I've done in the past. P.s didn't really appreciate that other guy commenting on people's comments in that gto video and couldn't bite my lip so kind of gave my honest opinion on that direct to his message... I think it was always going to attract something like that though so wasn't unexpected. Anyways shop card was in the post today and definitely have a few ideas for what I could maybe send you in the new year too....🙂 Speak soon anyways Kyle and take care in the meantime.
@ I’ve been scouring the interwebs for Buicks since last watched this video John!! And Airfix kits. But with little success so far. I need round 2 to re-release all this stuff so I can afford most of it. 🤣🤣🤦🏻♂️. I’ll be keeping my eyes peeled though. Always a reasonable one that will turn up from time to time. As for that other guy on the GTO video. I had to bite my tongue. Not my channel, wanted to stay civil. It was clear we wouldn’t be agreeing. I had a scroll through and noticed he was replying to others as well. Definitely strikes me as one of the chaps who were complaining about the kit on Facebook every 5 minutes. Ah well, there’s always at least one. Thanks again for another great response and I’ll talk to you soon
Looking at the moving images of the ‘60 Olds wagon I think you might be right about that being the Monogram Bad Actor roof, good thinking. Steve’s a clever sod isn’t he? 😂😂 love that hearse too, I think that’s definitely saveable. Lots were done in Ireland from ex Embassy cars with RHD interiors. A company called Duffy did loads.
@@CycolacFan Haha yeah Steve can certainly fit anything to anything for whatever he envisions, I think you'll definitely be able to do something with it Mike. I'll look up that company, I always wondered why whenever you saw these online or if a banger boy had bought them they'd always be found in Ireland. He's laid a really good foundation with that one, definitely spoke to me when it arrived so would be a nice project to do with a bit of refinery here and there 😉 anyways, I'll be getting everything sent out today mate so let me know when it arrives. Speak soon anyways Mike 🙂
@@pactrarc Cheers Adam, yeah just had some unexpected challenges lately so concentrated on having a clear out to keep my mind focused on at least something else... I just couldn't work TH-cam into it but the longer I left that the more it was bothering me so hopefully get into the swing of it again now. Hope you're keeping well anyways mate and we'll have a catch up soon no doubt 🙂
That ‘59 Invictor in light metallic blue is nice! (Did I hear the name right?). I’m not as knowledgable about US cars as you are so I’m constantly seeing things that are new to me. I’ll be watching to see what you do with the hearse too! That looks like an interesting project. 👍
@@andyr5579 I think Lauren answered that better than I could 🙂 great looking cars, always preferred the 1960 but it's one I've only had once and that got sold a good 10+ years ago and never found another. The hearse will definitely make a great little project with a lot of work, but definitely worth saving. Thanks again mate. 🙂
Awesome! Welcome back John, week ago I thought I gotta email you and ask if you are ok? But I my self got alot of things going on and kinda forgot about it. Anyways nice to see old kits again, take care my friend and happy modelling 👍🏻😎
@@askoseppanen3779 thanks so much Asko and a really nice thought, we all just get busy in life I guess... I know that things you think of, which you think you'll do in a few days turns into months before you've even remembered about it again absolutely understand 100%. Anyways glad to start dipping my toe back in and hope you're keeping well too 😊
Lots of wonderful old plastic! If you do have spare kustompieces from theese and other old kits then i know a Swedish guy that is heavilly interested 😉😉😉
@@KitbashedKustoms Hi Jimmy, funnily enough I had a big crate of old 60s parts next to me throughout that video and meant to briefly show it to see if people would like to watch me sort through it all, completely forgot by the time I was done 😂 it would definitely have to be done in piece meal steps though as there's a lot in there and would be a ten hour video if not. Definitely will get round to it at some point anyways so I'm sure we'll be able to sort you out with something in the near future 🙂 hope you're keeping well anyways buddy 🙂
@J.B.Scale.Creations oh now you are just teasing me! 😆 😉 And i would absolutly be interesred in watxhing that type of video! And absolutly would i be interested in doing buisness with you if/when you are thinking about selling some of the kustom pieces. As i said. I'm a huge sucker for that type of plastic..and i'm not a collector, i'm a builder 😎. Take care buddy!
@@KitbashedKustoms don't worry Jimmy, we'll definitely get you sorted out with something... Would be great to see some of them getting put to good use 😊
Well, Life has a way of, well, You know, being Life! No way around it! Carry on Mate! I like what You said about the box art, I too, am a fan of the old box art myself. Say, I hate asking here but, what would You say was a fair price for the purple custom and the bright blue Riviera? I have found to date every one of the videos that You have put on the tubeland to be very entertaining, most informative and a pleasing part of my day spent watching them! And, I will add, You keep sharing them and I will keep watching them John!! Krow Kustoms, you where dead on with that recommendation Sir! Spot on 100%!! Thank You! Best Wishes to You and Your Family and The Best to You and Yours in the coming New Year John!! As ever looking forward to the next video! Take Care, Be Safe, god Bless, Oh, could I get a shop card too? Later
@@russellpoland6637 Hi Russell, thanks so much again for your kind comments, I really do appreciate all of them. I think I actually missed a couple whilst having a hiatus from TH-cam to try and catch up on myself so apologies if anything did get a reply. I filmed four videos in a row the other day so plenty to put out over the next few days. I'm not sure I'm parting with the blue riviera just yet but I'm going to sort through all the early year ones in January so I'll see what I can do. Regarding the purple one, I've just put it on eBay but I'll take it down, I'd like to gift that one to you for all the support you've given so if you drop me an email (in the main channel description) with your address I'll get it sent out with a shop card in the new year once the Christmas post has calmed down. Really appreciate everything and hope you and your family are keeping well and looking forward to Christmas too. All the best mate 🙂
@@WalkmanFoster it would be but the video was already going to be long so going into detail on each model would just double the duration. I'll be doing plenty more like this so where I can I will at least try to show a bit more. Thanks for watching.
