    I am seeking a '70 GSX 2 in 1 plastic model kit, made by revell.

    I will trade an unassembled revell #7601 '70 Plymouth AAR cuda kit for one

    Jeff,
    I have one I will sell you for $25.00 plus shipping from 28112. The box is still in the plastic wrapper. You might want to try Michael's (hobby store for girls) if there's one near you. That's where I got this one, a couple of years ago.

    Which one? The original one depicts a white car on the box with crazy graphics. They recently started making them again, with a blue car on the box, and more subdued graphics.

    the one I had was made by Revell, I think it had a pic on the box of a stock white GSX, and a pic of a blue one with weird graphics
    it could be built as stock,or custom

    Go to e-bay and search for "slot car" and then narrow your search at the left side of the screen to"model kits". You should be able to find one easily. I just saw one a day or two ago. Sometimes you can even find one by browsing the "slot car" search. I build 1/24 scale drag slot cars and sell them on e-bay, so I see whats out there every day. That kit is still available, and someone should probably trade you. I buy kits all the time, the next time I see one I'll get it, and gladly trade you. I have too many GS and GSX cars already. Check your area for a slot car track with a drag strip-but be careful, its addictive as hell!

    Soak the body in Castrol Super clean. It will disolve the old paint off, won't hurt the plastic. Then you can wash it and start over.

    Ive got that one built, and 2 of the white ones (one built, one still in the plastic), and 2 Yellow GSX's (one built, one still in the plastic).

    I've also heard you can soak the body in DOT3 over night, and it will get rid of most of the paint, without hurting the plastic (like the suggestion above)

    Awesome, thanx for that tip. I might finish that car yet!

    And then I can start on my AAR 'Cuda and Shelby Z Daytona. :TU:

    Strip paint off a model car?!?! Oven Cleaner!!!!!!!

    Works even better if you enclose it in a plastic tub to lock in the fumes too. Zip lock bag in a pinch.

    Awsome beater!!! I know its not a buick but I say its easier to build a clean kit than a weathered one! Also sorry if the pics aren't great either. pics 4 020.jpg pics 4 021.jpg pics 4 022.jpg
