Got the last one needed

Ok, I have a soft spot for Dave Wilder's AMT Box art, I just love that stuff.  I finally picked up the 27T Hillbilly hot rod kit with the cardboard fold out of a hillbilly shack included.  Remember these you old geezers?  You guys from the younger crowd sure won't.  There was a gas station display in the 34 Ford Pickup Hillbilly Hauler kit and in the Bonnie and Clyde 32 Roadster.  You can find the Garage Display in the new released AMT Three Stooges 25 T kit.  It is modified somewhat but is still pretty close to the original.  Back in the day, I had all of these and loved em.  If you are wondering, , I will build the 27 but I will save the wonderful box art.

Neat. Is this going to be an immediate build or down the road?

Steve, don't mean to be picky but "Neat" is how you order yer Likker or how you keep your bed room.  "Neet" is how something looks when it trips yer trigger.  You remember-----Neet!  Neet-O!  Neet-O-Keen!!!     Now, as far as the kit, it will be built at SOME point.  I have way too many started, half-finished, painted, glooed, cut and fit, open and fooled with projects to last me until I am 175 years old.  Then, the unopened unbuilt stuff is left to last me another 80 years.  Had you not taken some of this stuff off my hands, I would have to live until I was 457 years old.   I am not sure when I will get to this one, maybe when the heat sets in this summer, If I bang myself up on the go kart and am down a while, I get an urge to re-live 1967 or just go on a building rampage.  I think I have enough 27 T kits to build every version AMT has offered and a few outta my head.  So……….to answer yer question, I aint got no answer.  Yet.

Hah! Point well taken. Neet, it is.

And I fully understand having more kits than you can possibly build. I believe I've already reached that point myself,,,,,, and I'm still buying. Got one off eBay today and have a bid on another one that ends Friday.

That hillbilly shack is keen.
