What's a good reference for pricing older kits , I've got a lot of drag cars from the 80s & 90s ... anyone ?

@THROTTLEPOWER Жыл бұрын

That's a good question Steve, maybe someone will chime in. Are you in an area where there are Model Contests?

David R Lentz, USA At round 22:50, the screen image loses resolution, making difficult to read the kit labels. More broadly, the random panning of the camera (smartphone?) blurs the image, as well, again inhibiting legibility. (I already had sent this, though I cannot find it.)

Did you find out what the different colored round dots with numbers were? Price or a reference to a price?

Yes, they were the different prices Nick.

Hope you enjoyed the vid Rick, the contest footage will be out later today. A few months ago I made a vid on how to find Model Contests, check it out and please let me know if it was helpful for you. What do you like to build Rick?

@@THROTTLEPOWER Actually, it's not the contests that I look for but the swap meets. A place where a person can get models and supplies cheaper than the hobby store prices. I used to have a very large box of extra parts (tires,wheels,engines,etc.) but then a "now ex-girlfriend" happened, and all my extra parts as well as my time invested models got crunched. She went to jail but that doesn't replace my models. I'm just now starting from scratch again.

@@Rick-if5zb I understand Rick, but to find the stuff you want you will have to search out some Model Contests. All your Model Contests have a Vendor area.

@@Rick-if5zb There is one show that is a Slot Car and Model Swap meet (no Model Contest) and it's in Louisville, KY. every year in the Fall. I just went to that and filmed it. It's on my channel and it's a pretty popular show.

@@THROTTLEPOWER My reason for asking is because he said it was in Atlanta, Georgia and that is very close to where I live. I just didn't know where in Atlanta or when this was going on. I probably would have went had I known. Is this Hobby Show something they do yearly or is it more often? That's the kind of info I need.
