Just want to introduce myself, I am returning to the hobby after approximately 20 years. I am primarily interested in older models from the '60's which was my modeling heyday. Used to get $1.00 a week allowance in those days so every two weeks I would have enough for a typical AMT kit selling for $1.29 and some left over for paint. Ha ha, what those kits are worth today! So the world of the internet via eBay has allowed me to begin collecting old screw bottom models and promos which need varying levels of restoration. I look forward to sharing tips and methods. Happy New Year!
