I’m local to Louisville also, and feel very lucky to have this. Hobby shop is my go to place. I built plastic, I build RC, and I build scratch, this place is heaven. Love your new kit.
Awesome hobby shop Tim, now you need to get busy build some of them kits you got, I know that hard to do in the summer with so many thing going on, Thanks for all you do for this hobby that we love.
Awesome those kits were the best!! Have a few of them from back in the day!! & 3 Front Engine rails. Wish I had some more of them. Thanks for the look & update.😃🏆🏆
Great kit and phenomenal shop! Blueberry/pecan tied for my favorite. My last meal on death row would be one of each. Boston creme, blueberry, pecan. Also a slice of carrot cake and cheesecake. Damn! I so hangry now!
Great review on the Grand Am, looks like a great kit. The extra tubing and wire is a plus, not sure I like the flat braided line but maybe you could run a piece of wire inside of it. I built Ed McCulloch's in the early 70's. Love that hobby shop review, I have to do mail order here. May need to make a run over there with the Hobby shop and the flea markets you have pretty great resources! Be good, have fun!
Those 18th scale funny car is wicked.... Back in the day (70s) the bigger model cars were hard to find. Can't wait to see a few of these cool rides finished. Thank you for the video ✌️😎
Dude, remember back in mid 70’s as a kid going to department store and seeing those wonderful AMT 1/25 trucks? Lol I used to save up a fiver and get a different $4.99 truck kit whenever possible
What was really nice was actually seeing all of the funny cars mentioned here back in the day when we had drag strips everywhere here in So. Cal. Oh for a time machine!
Cool tour of the hobby shop. The old broken down funny car frame pictured on my shop card is from the Grand Am kit. The Joe's power plus gas station diorama is a nice kit. I have the Texaco version of that same kit. ACME is coming up soon.See you there buddy!
Super cool Tim! I got mine yesterday. This is my favorite version. I might get another one in hopes that someone will make different Mickey decals for it. Super happy for you!
Late sixties throughout the seventies I built models, lots of models. Models teach you patience. Cherry pie. Wish we had a model shop where I live, I’d build a few. I liked the big kits but I mostly built 1/24 scale.
Drove about an hour and a half to see this shop. Well worth the drive, plus Bass Pro is close and a couple of malls just down the road. If you're close and into model building I'd highly recommend stopping in.
Nice video Tim, thanks for sharing. That is one cool funnycar. I like that. But that hobbyshop. MAN I envy you. It is many years ago we had a proper hobbyshop in Denmark, and even in the golden era, we did not have any with THAT much stuff.... Boy, would I love to live nearby... And by the way, I am looking foreward to seeing your Millers truck finished. That is one cool semi... 😀 Happy modelling brother... 🙂
How the hell can you go wrong with pecan pie and a funny car, man? Not to mention the Pie Wagon! I love the engine wiring, tubing and dig that braided tubing! I only wish they'd include a driver's figure, seated, in these kits.
First! HA! Got four of these in the stash. Have almost all of them as I revert back to 1972. I built several of these. I ALWAYS adjust the rear ride height buy mounting the rear end upward as I think the finished kit sits goofy. These 1/16 Revell/ repo's are brilliant, brilliant kits IMO. ps it's a GILMER belt. At sixty dollars this is a very fair price IMO. Looking for a Jeb Allen T/F car here in Indy. Nice hobby shop, thanks for the video.
Cheesecake! That qualifies as pie, right? 😂 I’m working on a diorama for ACME. 😉 Very nice hobby shop. I’ve got a HobbyTown USA here (even worked there a few months in 2020). It’s pretty well stocked, but not like yours. Appreciate it while you still have it. Peace and love.
Nice video and a great hobby shop! You probably already know but the Mickey Thompson car has the wrong interior tin according to the Atlantis web site. The hobby shop can get the correct one when Atlantis sends them or you can order one direct from Atlantis. There's no charge.
You sure are lucky to have that hobby shop close by. I envy you. I seen 2 kits I've been wanting, Joe's Gas Station, it won't last long. And the International Dump Truck. It's already hard to find. Do you think they will take an order over the phone and ship it ? This is the first I heard of the Pie Wagon coming out. I'm l👀king forward to that❗
I came across your video it’s amazing when I was a kid my mom bought me a motor kit model it was all clear block you can also see it how all the parts move in side it took a 9 volt battery to make it run
@@wallepc745 Now is a GREAT time to be a modeler!! They are rereleasing lots of older kits that are high in demand and it seems like just about anything and everything is a model kit now. Paints, supplies and glues have come along way too.
We share a name !! Only ever met one guy with our name ........ FIFTY YEARS AGO. Nice video. Hard to find model shops in W. NY. I've got a list of cars that I've owned, most of which I've never seen as models. I'd love to find every one of them. Any hints would be appreciated. Mostly plain Jane vehicles that I suspect I'll never find. Two are cars I drove on Okinawa, '74 Nissan Silvia and '74/'75 Toyota Corolla Wagon. Haven't built a kit in about 45 years and would like to assemble each on my list.
I Wish Atlantis Would Come Out With A 1/25 Stock Pontiac Grand Am Colonade Model Kit . Does This Hobby Shop Do Mail Orders If So How Does One Get In Touch With Them.Do You Know????? If So Let Me Know.
I two toned my Mustang build (actually ran a wide stripe down the middle) that I'm about to finish up. I'm taking it to the ACME show end of October so I can't have the video out before that as I want the Mustang to be a surprise there.

🍎🍎 Apple is good too, warm, with a scoop of Ice Cream!!

The owner Brian, is one of the best hobby shop owners I’ve met. Great hobby store and great people!
Couldn't agree more!
WHAT NO TRAINS LOL! Man that's a cool looking kit. Great model shop, might have to check this out on our way to ACME. Great paint supply!
It's worth the stop Kreg!
Great hobby shop, thanks for showing, more kits I need/ don’t need/need/want, lol

Cool Kit Tim looking forward to seeing you build it!
Thanks 👍
Can’t wait for our “Showdown”! Cool kit Tim!
👍😉👍
Been looking for a 1973 Pontiac Gran Prix kit since the 70s. Nice video.
That was never made as a model kit, glad you liked the video.
Thanks Tim. Appreciate what you do
I appreciate that Randy
great shop,, all these shops are gone from my home town in Australia,, there used to be slot car tracks too,, there all gone.
Sorry to hear that, they are disappearing fast Steve.
Drove about an hour and a half to see this shop. Well worth the drive, plus Bass Pro is close and a couple of malls just down the road. If you're close and into model building I'd highly recommend stopping in.

I could go in that place and not come out in years! Oh so many kits, no money and limited time.
Exactly!!!!!!!!!!
How the hell can you go wrong with pecan pie and a funny car, man? Not to mention the Pie Wagon! I love the engine wiring, tubing and dig that braided tubing! I only wish they'd include a driver's figure, seated, in these kits.
I agree!!!!
Let's hope Atlantic has the molds for the revell line of slingshot dragsters they used to do years ago, I'd buy the lot again they were brilliant
I agree Chris
@@THROTTLEPOWER oh that tony Nancy slingshot,and the beautiful keeling and Clayton rail aswell
@@chrishay8385 Those are great kits!! 👍🏁🏁👍😉
Dude, you are wounded up today. You got me all fired up. See you at acme.

Waiting since the 70's? you're a patient Lad!!

Very cool Kevin to have four of them and yes they are brilliant kits! Thanks for the info as I'll keep that in mind when I build it.
In the early to middle 70s my brother bought me a tom mcquine? Funny car, I'm not sure of spelling. It was big and very cool
Aaaaa very cool James!!!!!!!!
Great video! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Mike
Tim, I’m going to try and find you at the Acme show in Cartersville.

I made the original when I was 9 or 10. I still remember it, one of my favourite builds!

The red car and all drag related kits from revell had the plastic tubing for the 1/16th scale cars .. i built the red car in 1992 .
Ok, thank you
Best one yet Tim!
Thanks Alex!
My favorite pie is lemon meringue.
That's good too Mike

Love it!! Was the 1/25 available yet? haven't seen it.
I don't think so
I wonder why the screwed up the EGA (USMC Emblem) decal on this re-box?
@@blueline308 I don't know
What Atlantis could do is make bodies available, but then again won’t make money from just that. Gotta stick with resin bodies for now.
That's true
I think this channel is safe from the tank, plane and Gundam guys brother.
Oh man, you called it 1/18th scale bro.

Yea, not sure if they were ever made and they would be hard to find if they were. 3d printed bodies would be your best bet.

May be a weird question. But im a rc builder and I was wondering if you knew the wheelbase on that Atlantis model you picked up.
Sorry, I don't, but when I get it mocked up I can let you know.
You were stoked?🤣

Yes I was!
I must add in my town all the hobby shops have closed their doors 😢😢😢
Sadly they are disappearing fast.
Duck tails next weekend.
Yes it is along with James Dean!! 🙂
How do you paint 2-tone paint jobs? Can you show the masking technique?
With Tamiya tape..... I can show you in a video I have started. It will probably be done/out end of October first part of November.
I two toned my Mustang build (actually ran a wide stripe down the middle) that I'm about to finish up. I'm taking it to the ACME show end of October so I can't have the video out before that as I want the Mustang to be a surprise there.
Does anyone know a website to check for swap meets near the nyc westchester ny area because I can’t find anything.
I don't but someone might chime in with something.
Can anyone believe these models are so expensive? I used to pay $3.00 for models. Yes, I'm old. But I can't see these costing this much!
How much did you make an hour back then Dave when you were buying models at 3 bucks a piece?
would like to do an icecream truck.
That would be a cool build!!
Where are you located? Thank's
That hobby shop is in Louisville, KY.
Where's this at in Louisville?
Off of Breckenridge
Hike's Point area
@@THROTTLEPOWER I will have to check them out.
