I’m 75 and am just getting back into building models again. I have over 300 kits squirreled away. I never quit looking at kits and purchasing them along the way. Have always loved model cars and trucks.
I'm 67, same.
You're igniting my inner child's love for old model kits. This is gonna cost me..
Spend the money and recapture your youth! Even for a short time. It's worth ever $100 bill!!!
I love the concept of "model shop in 60 etc" great idea for museum.
I’m 15 so this fascinates me, also because I’ve never been able to go into a modern one cuz there are none near me.
You got an amazing collection anyone would die to have, just amazing. I'll admit, I hadn't seen a wooden kit before until I saw a few from this collection. Crazy to think that they're probably the only few kits remaining in the world in that pristine condition as well as unassembled. Plus I'd love to give you my thanks, if it wasn't for you and your channel I wouldn't be working on my 1/48 scale T-34/85 while I'm watching your videos. I owe everything to you, Andy. With love from Ontario.
The Red Alert '69 Chevelle,'57 Chevy funny car,Sox & Martin Superbirds and the "Hurst Hairy Olds" 442..I built those back in the day,I think I payed between $1.75-$2.50 for these kits. That's how I spent the money I earned mowing lawns..What a time capsule you have found.
I hope there will be a virtual tour and online images of the museum and the kits for people who don't have the opportunity to go there in person.
If you can find one, the Tamiya tank that seemed to set 1/35 as the standard scale for armor would be a great kit for the museum.
The museum is such a great idea, but I especially appreciate that you are taking a 'non-profit' approach to these kits. I can only image the money that has been offered by collectors.
Great idea to have a museum for these fantastic kits, brings back many fond memories, thanks.
I wish I had kept some of my models from the 70,s.I remember the AMT "Move'in On" 1/25 scale Kenworth truck and trailer. I paid $17 and my dad was outraged at what I paid.
I had that kit too, and the "Mack R Series Rubber Duck" kit that came with a toy yellow duck. My brother is now the custodian of both unmade kits, 5000 kms away!
And it was a great show!
I can't wait for the museum, that alone will be worth the drive out there. Those MPC cars really take me back. I messily built a bunch of those and their airplanes and got a few things with the reward program they had running in the 80's.
I just got my three kits here in Ohio!
I'll explain. Andy DID NOT ship these kits to me.
I'm currently laid up in facility recovering from a minor surgery so I have a TON of time on my handz. SO I'm watching Luca C's channel and proceeds to tell of "THE GREAT HOARD" that was purchased by Andy. The next vlog Luca is going over some of the kits purchased and I see at least three that I built as a kid. As mentioned I'm in Ohio. So I googled Andy's shop and found out that they don't ship nor do they don't take credit info via phone so I was bummed.
So I randomly/joking asked one of the therapists who I'm actually good friends with if she knew anyone in the Pheonix area AND SHE DID!! Well, through channels I was able to reach said person and arrange the purchase & shipping and now have the Monogram 66 Malibu, the White 69 Z/28 and the Midnight Z!
I will build these too, even though they weren't cheap. No sealed box shelf queens for me!
A HUGE THANKS to LucaC and Andy's Hobby Headquarters!
And I have something special for you Luca!
As the backdrop for the museum, you should have a mini retro hobby shop from the 1960's set up, with an old school cash register, some vintage display racks and a glass case for some of the kits.
Lots and lots of rare and odd kits, yet..! no 68’ AMT Ford Falcon in this collection.
Thanks for sharing!
I had one once...damn, damn, damn.
@@belaghoulashi I found one in a flea market in pretty bad condition but salvageable, though I didn't feel the price was right... Damn, damn, damn!
Sure takes me back. I put many a AMT kits together back in the late 60's and very early 70's .
$ 2.00. Each. Think glue was 10 cents.
Maybe 15. They truly were the good old days. Your museum will be something fantastic. 👍😊
I agree Alvin!
Looks great 👍 👌 may have to come see you 😆 one day 😆 here to help get your videos 📹 out to everyone 😀 have a great day
Let’s get the “museum“ started!
Man the 70's really was the Golden Age of car kits!
Oh yea!
In case you don't know by now, SMP was just another name for AMT model car kits. The way I heard it, AMT first had a contract with Ford Motor Co. to build models of their cars. Then when AMT approached General Motors to build models of their cars also, GM didn't like it and didn't wan to compete with Ford product model kits sold by the same company. So AMT offered to put different initials in the logo, SMP, for models of Chevies, Pontiacs and Buicks. GM went for it for a few years, until the AMT logo came back for all makes. Maybe GM realized that they were number one in the industry anyhow and a little competition from other makes was nothing to worry about anyhow.
I saw a bunch of plastic aircraft kits at an auction, big boxes of still wrapped kits, all sorts of oddball aircraft, kc135 tankers, pby Catalina's, I thought I might snag a few things for cheap, nope, bidding went ridiculous right away. This estate sale had a LOT of military stuff too, all types of officers hats, a Vietnam era jet pilot helmet, a German iron cross went for $80, ,a rusty beat up s.s. helmet went for $300, there was concentration camp money, reichmarks, knives, ect. End of the day, I bought a cardboard box with what I thought was a roofing harness , $10, it was a blue / yellow Russian or Ukrainian parachute, no canopy but harness , buckles , straps. I tried to sell it but people kept asking does it work? No! No canopy. It's an upside down basement drinking game thing presently .....!
* Kastner auctions, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, they do online bidding, crazy stuff turns up.there
I like what you're doing Andy great idea for a vintage model kit museum.
You have the original Lincoln Futura show car you showed in your first video, a rare and forgotten model. After the car shows, Chuck Barris made this into the original Batmobile. So you have a model kit of the Pre-Batmobile.
I built a lot of WWII aircraft in the 60's and 70's: P-38, P-51, F4U-1, Ju 87. Loved all that stuff.
I'm really glad that you got all of those kits, instead of greedy dorks like the "lots of models" ebay guy. 👍
Make sure that the museum kits are on a secure display, so chumps can't shoplift them. 🚨
Wow, what a haul. Thank you for sharing
I've just discovered your channel. Great stuff.
Awesome idea. Can't wait to see the final setup.
This is great Andy
Some vintage Nichimo would be cool
For tanks vintage wise !!!great video as always
What an interesting and exciting idea a model museum
That is really original how a model shelf would look in various periods 50’s 60’s 70’s or 80’s
Andy that’s so cool
Loved to ideas for sci fi and spacecraft
As usual Andy another great video to watch!!!
Thank you for inspiring and keeping it fun!!
Cheers!!!!!
That would be cool!
Seeing some of these kits is like stepping back in time. Even the Palmer kits bring back memories. Some of the slot car guys bought them a converted them for racing. They were dirt cheap and ideal if you were into the hobby on a paper route budget. Good luck Andy, I love these videos, such good memories from a long time ago.
thanks for posting this Andy
Very cool! I like that built one. Like you said, these tell a story. I’m looking forward to seeing your museum in startup to final stage. I hope you display some with body’s out.
Good Job , thks
I saw an AMT 1950 convertible that I remember building (I was born in 1950) those warped display models also brought back memories. I remember actually having a couple back in the late 50's. As for those kits that had already been built I'm guessing some hobby shop held a model car show and somehow those cars never got back to the original owners.
Such an awesome score. Great condition. That BMW side cart motorcycle is legit.
I have a lot of unbuilt Lincoln Continental kits from the 60's. I also have a lot of Johan and SMP build sheets from finished models that I had made. Cheers from Australia.
Awesome Start For The Museum Andy 🤗🤗, God Bless All !!!
Thanks 👍
i just aquired a piece that would fit great in your museum, its a cleveland flight engineered scale contest flying model, copyright date on the paperwork is 1946. box is a little rough but as far as i can tell it is a complete kit
That Night Prowler (79 Camaro) was a spin-off of a 1978 Camaro IMSA car entered in the the 78-79 MPC Model Car Contest series featured at many of the National Car Shows. The contest would attract huge numbers of entries from coast to coast totaling numbers near to or exceeding 1400 model cars! When you entered any ideas sitting on the table that MPC wanted to incorporate, let's say a Camaro, were allowed without restriction. How do I believe this to be true? I built the '78 Camaro that placed second in the nation which was held in Omaha Nebraska! Still have the car and my belief in how Night Prowler was created. Another opinion welcomed? Ask Tim Boyd.
I hope that collection had an AMT 1967 Ford Mustang Hardtop Coupe Kit, legend has it the mold was destroyed to make the fastback version so the Coupe became awfully rare!
the most important armour kit must go in this, the original deformed tamiya panther kit, that spearheaded 1/35 scale
Cool video Andy!!!!
Super cool, hope to get there some day and see it!!! 😊
I will definitely have to make a road trip to your store when you get it all set up 👍👍
Seeing a 70's monogram kit next to, maybe a Meng or Miniart tank would be very cool - especially of the same tank
The American violance kits from ARII got some guns I thought?! Like on the Cars hood! I actually got it this way and I'm proud of having two. T-Bird and Firebird as seen.
The 'Travolta' Firebird was built in full size by Barris' without and royalties or license. Travolta threatened to sue, so almost overnight it was repainted, changed to the car used in the Steve Martin film 'The Jerk'.
I did not know about Vinny Barbarino's sniffles but I certainly recall the car in both schemes and THE JERK!
70’s and early 80’s AMT truck kits would be a good section for the museum too during the truck and CB craze
I’d love to see one of the Aurora Monster kits in your museum - fond memories of these kits from my childhood.
The box art for the Aurora Fokker D.VII is pretty wild! 💀 🔥
I had the 66 Chevelle Street Rat when I was a teen at 13:40, I would love to have another even if it was just a box to display, I painted mine black. My favorite model.
I built White Lightning as a kid.
When I started my build of Ranger today, I found that my jar of Model Master light gray has separated, and is mostly water now. It's happened before with their paints, but only with white and very light grays. So I had to order a replacement jar of Mr Color 338 Light Gray. And once Ranger is built, I'll get back into aircraft, starting with Tamiya's 1/48 Skyraider.
A plastic model museum is a great idea, I have old AURORA tank kits still in celliophane wrap I would trade for later more common kits our donate,
Would be great to see some modern equivalent kits side by side with a few of these kits both built and unbuilt with close up photos comparing details looking at how things have changed.
Really love your show, those are some great kits. I just bought a large collection myself of Vintage WW2 models (500 Kits) everything from Ataleri , DML, to Revell, and the gentleman has another 2000 kits in his home in Arizona I’ll be flying out to buy I was wondering if you’d be interested in any of the duplicates I would be buying. Let me know and I’ll call your store and we can chat. You out west If remember correctly. Anyway thanks and keep making these great videos.
Если есть видео обзор Ваших винтажных моделей,выложите их,пожалуйста или дайте ссылку
"Scalemates" lists the Pontiac Firebirds as un-numbered MPC kits.
American Violence is an amazing name
Some 1/48 scale Aurora tanks, like the MBT70, would also be good for the museum.
A wonderful initiative. A plastic kit museum. Will you have other items from the same year such as posters, comics, beer bottles, cans, TVs, radios perhaps. Anything that gives 'context'.
You really need to include some of Revells 1/32 series aircraft from the early 70’s featuring the incredible artwork of Jack Lyennwood
In your museum as well.
The Stuka with the snake on the side was a good one
@@joeshmoe9978 that was a good one…..my favourite was the F4U-1 corsair. That thing looked like it was going to fly off the box!
@@mode1charlie170 That's cool. I also had the Corsair. Its sad that new tool 1/32 kits are so expensive now.
@@joeshmoe9978 Oh I know. I have the Tamiya 1/32 kit corsair. I forget what I paid for it but it wasn’t cheap. At least with Tamiya you know you are getting a world class kit.
You should do a build video on one of those
I've got 120 model kits, mostly muscle from the 60s and 70s. Some rare like the 72 Chevelle and others. They're for sale if anyone's interested.
Hi Andy, the museum is going to look fantastic, if I could I would like to come over and have a look through, did you get any Yodel car kits? I believe they did a series of US Police cars, very best regards from Australia.
They did a Plymouth Fury and Dodge Monaco police cars, same car but different grille. Nice enough kit.
@@CycolacFan thanks for that, it's just that I can remember seeing them in a shop in Christchurch New Zealand in the early 1980's, best regards from a Kiwi now living in Australia.
Where is all of the old military stuff, Renwal, Peerless Max, Revell, Aurora and don't forget the early Tamiya 1/35 and Bandai 1/4 inch armor.
The Travolta was also done as Ponch's Chips car .
nice stuff for sure, just curious though, is there a specific kit out there that was done in a lot of various scales by various companies to show teh scales of models with only 1 vehicle? be it plane or car or bike or other. some people dont fully understand what we mean by scale or how it transfers, so something of that nature in the museum would be nice for the new folks to see in an easy to grasp manner. best wishes on a great place to display all this fine art from history.
Could you build the 1/48 Meng Super Hornet that you reviewed a few months back.
Gd vid thx. Lower left, what date would you put on the JO-HAN '69 ROAD RUNNER'? thanks
@ 14:00 MPC
Great overview Andy, have been following them all. Totally agree on box art, that can be 25-40% of the value to me, instructions another 10-15% and the rest the kit! That Top Gits idiot, James May made a big show off of how he throws his boxes away, just confirms what a loser he is, all done for effect. Cheers PS that Chevy Chevelle Cabriolet was missing from my Chevelle collection, found one on the Bay and he had the Kenworth Aerodyne Hideout Cab I had been looking for so thanks for that! Sometimes fate lends a hand 🤗
What no Oldsmobile 442's? You need Johan 68, 69, 70 442 kits and promos in the collection.
WoW the first box! I'm really jealous! Do u really need both el camino s?
Hey are there any heavy equipment or farm models.
I am also in the process of clearing out a massive model collection. I have already managed too sell over 700 kits on eBay. But I still have quite a few older kits that fit what I see hear and I am wondering how I could go about donating them too you?
Thats great Leonard, you contact us at support@andyshhq.com Thanks Andy
In all honesty, the Jo-Han USA Oldies Series was first issued in the mid-‘70s.
Yes I know that they are reissues .
do you have any semi - trucks to show!
If u have 75 Trans Am and Firebird I would lv to buy it
Maybe I'm a life time model builder because I had a vacuum form set when I was little you could make a plane car and helicopter 🚁
Hey Andy , how come no more build videos?
How much was the whole lot, or have i missed something?
any pricetag stickers from LIL'S HOBBY LOBBY Ft. William Ontario
Missing the build vids now
Any 68 torinos?
the car and trucks from the 60s and early seventies. when they were $2.00 to $2.50 were awesome detail. when kits became less detail and snap together with aweful cover art for $20.00 in the 80s was sad.
Golly always thought Jo-Han was a brand from Taiwan
Detroit based from beginning to end.
Have you ever dealt with any Rareplanes vacform aircraft kits? I bought a few f those long ago, even actually built a couple (more or less...). None survived the years.
Car kits, I must admit, never interested me...
The cars that have names like Warbird or Warlord are from hotrod magazine. If you had the magazine with the car, it would be priceless.
I have Red Alert and the 69 Chevelle in my basement
7:16 if they released that kit nowadays, they would change the name of it to "American Mustang Peaceful Protest" so hobby stores wouldn't get looted and burned. 😛
Sounds about right
Or maybe American peaceful Capitol Hill tourists with lots of kissing and hugging? That work for you?
@@JustMe-gz4pu CNN would promote the first name, and Fox the second. 😛
