Title: buying models
Post by: bandit2026 on April 29, 2018, 08:09:03 AM: I live in the country and no where near a hobby shop (50mi) So I'm limited as to where to get kits and different supplies. Can anyone suggest a good online hobby shop? Sorry I don't trust evil bay and they really jack you on shipping. Went to a model show- swap meet and could not find the one model I was look for. (37chevy) Nobody had one. So I guess I'll order 1 or 3.

Also Mikes Decals mikesdecals.com
Also Tom Carter at Spotlight Hobbies. spotlighthobbies.com
Spotlight also has a good message board that caters to all types of model building.

All good guys to deal with.

http://www.fredsmodelworldonline.com/new.htm Purchased from here as well...great source for some rarer, more obsolete kits....prices are reasonably fair.

http://www.bigdonkeyresin.com/ Larry was big help on a build I did as far as getting period correct pieces. Great source for bodies as well as misc. parts
