John Deere 4430

My cousin "Jim" came home from the Navy in late 1945 and lived with his parents in Alliance, [...]

1:25 Revell 1968 “Bullitt” Mustang – iModeler at the Movies Group Build
So anybody who is a car “guy” or cares at all about muscle cars understands when someone mentions the movie “Bullitt”. Many better movies have been made since—BUT NONE—will ever compare to that chase scene. Say what you will, [...]
2001 Corvette Z06
