    I really miss building JoHan kits. It's a shame that the molds are no longer in existence, or so I have been told. They had the most interesting kits as well. Thanks for the glimpse into the past. No heart attack here. I have plenty of kits from the 70's, 80's and early 90's that I am planning on digging into in the near future.

    Amen brother. Models are to be built. What an awesome kit. The body moldings are crisp. That will be a sweet build.

    Thanks for the look in the box. The comparison of the 2 kits was interesting also.

    No hurt felt. As you say, model kits were intended to be built, and I hope that you have a good time building yours! You are very lucky to have one of those. Thanks for sharing this with us!

    Shawn, I think it's great to see this kit opened again. I had this kit years ago and used it to build a full custom 51 Chevy BelAir. Yep, I used the rear fenders and tail lights on it. But, back then these were everywhere. Wish I had another one to build now. Cool old kits. Great video had fun watching. Keep On Buildin' On. Paul

    I have a 60 Adventurer kit that I built many years ago. I show it in a video I posted a couple of weeks ago. I loved those old Jo-Han kits and have a few. A friend of mine back then would play the same guessing game of what color the kit would be. Good times.

    @russellpoland6637 Před rokem +1

    I am in agreement with You 100 percent, with your stance of Model kits were made to be " built ! " "NOT" collected!! I find the outrageous practice of e-bay sellers to be deplorable and even worse the continued buying habits of the buyers which only condones this behaviour!
    Sorry, I didn't mean to soap box there. It's just the way in which e-bay promotes this way of fair trade is horrible, well, in my opinion, I mean back in the day I did buy from e-bay, but, as the ridiculous range of prices continued, I opted to for go e-bay selections ever again. Oh, Sorry I did it again.
    Thank You for sharing these JoHan kits with Us, wish I had a few of them, "TO BUILD!!" ha ha
    I will have to find a few places like You did to look for hidden kits.
    Thanks Again looking forward to the next video and George too!!! Love those videos!

I'm 69 and remember building this kit as a kid - well the original one that is - not this re-issue that says "oldies" - it was a new car when I built it in '60! - Jo-Han was the go-to for 50s and 60s Mopars. 🎸

    At 12:47 you said it just as I was about to stop the vid and comment.
    We BUILD model cars. They were meant to be fun and be built, not sit on the shelf in sealed plastic and rot.
    The only time they should be sealed is on the shelf to be purchased. I buy old kits all the time and never buy sealed ones. Tjis was we can make sure its all there and tjere os no tore burn and the decals are ok. We can scan the decals and make new ones, but tire burn is a bitch to get out.
    Rant over.....
