Sharpen your model building building skills.

This is meant for the modeler that is less than two years in the hobby . How is your work ? Do you look at it and say" I know I can do it better " . Well, do like many others do , buy a glue bomb at your local flea-market or yard sale. Be picky though , especially if it is a car you really want and it is NOT one of the early CORVETTE by MPC,AMT,or MONOGRAM. The reason I say that is the MONOGRAM kits , especially , as glue bombs are very hard to bring back .The suspensions , engines , and interior parts can easily be totally destroyed ! Hopefully your "glue bomb "is a ROAD RUNNER , GTO , CHEVELLE etc.These can be brought back from meltdown as trash by being careful as to what you pick and making sure that all the necessary parts are there or . you better have a large "goody box " full of parts . When you,ve disassembled it and carefully brought it back  , you will learn a lot about yourself and styrene plastic. There is a fellow in my area that does NOT buy new kits , he rebuilds These gluebombs . He always wins at least silver in his quest . So get a "BOMB' and improve your modeling skills and refire your imagination .    oldcarguy
