Good morning bro love your channel just looking at when you went to Kentucky and a lot of cars that you’re showing so cool but the Cox director my friend Barry Mullett owned it that was like in the 70s and he’s passed away now he was a great motorhead, welder, by trade and one of my best friends growing up. He also raced slot cars too with his brother Scott Scott and I were in the carpentry program together. He passed away to die from emphysema bottom my friends are gone, but I have great memories of them love your channel bro. Hope you and your family have a great day .🎉

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

I am sorry to hear about your friend Barry. Thanks for sharing your story.

[@CycolacFan]

That’s a European Ford Escort XR3 from the very early 1980s. Both AMT and Revell issued kits in 1/25 around 1981/2 or so. Look up Escort XR3 XR-3 or XR3i and you’ll find all the info. There was an American market version too with a different front end.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Oh ok, thank you for the info... I'll check that out.

[@RandysFiftySevenChevy]

Tried skipping forward and ended up watching the same stuff a couple of times. lol Some really cool stuff Timmy. I was hoping to get more info on the Snake and Mongoose wheelie cars that one seller had. If I stuck to models' id have a house full of them, but nooo, I have to have the real thing.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

But the real thing is much cooler!!

[@jonflanagin6682]

Amazon still have the 1968 dart for $35.00

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Ok, thank you

[@lovelove-er9lq]

Great Video posting.I am looking for a Die Cast 67 Black Chevy Impala 2 Door.If anyone knows where I can find one.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

👍👍

[@TrucTrain]

The Truck cab is a AMT the Hood is a Resin Illini replicas White 4000 hood

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Aaaaaa, Ok.... Thank you for the info.

[@TrucTrain]

@@THROTTLEPOWER Your welcome did you buy it? If it was for a $1 that was cheap. I’ve known the owner of the company “Bob” for about 40 years he’s still alive but don’t know if he cast a lot anymore. Thanks for the video I hope to make the Model swap meet in St Louis at the end of October.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

@@TrucTrain I went back to get it and it was gone.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

@@TrucTrain I have a few cabs from Bob, always liked what he offered.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

@@TrucTrain I was kicking myself for not getting it. Even if it didn't work out it doesn't get any cheaper then a dollar.

[@bluefj-wc3vz]

Truck cab looks like a AMT Road Boss with a homemade White 9000ish hood

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Yea, that's what I kind of was thinking.

[@joesrustshop4509]

To think. I was 3 to 4 years old depending on what part of '68 Hot Wheels were released. And we played with them. Chipped them up, buried them in the sand box. Smashed them up with hammers, and in vices. Never knowing them and Matchbox cars, and other toys would be worth big bucks.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Man, I was right there with you in the sand box!!!!

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

But that's why they are worth so much.... Because we played with them back in the day and had fun doing it!!

[@joesrustshop4509]

@@THROTTLEPOWER Yep, and rolling down the drive. And they'd flip, and slide down on their roofs. Fun, simple times.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

@@joesrustshop4509 Those were the good ol' days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@markmahy8089]

Yup, right there with ya.

[@grega4450]

I always expect to see bargains for some reason. Prices are a bit crazy at some of the tables.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Yes, prices are all over the board.

[@kennyspaulding796]

The Ford turbo engine, never seen or heard of one. I'm guessing it was an experimental concept thing. $1000.00 for a Hot Wheels Deora ⁉️ that's waaay out of line. Is this one of those shows that is done at the same time each year❓ if so I need to get to it next year.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

So true Kenny, I agree...... Yes, it's held the same time each year.

[@kennyspaulding796]

@@THROTTLEPOWER Other than model kits I seen many other things I'm into like HO slot cars, which is what the show is about, seen a tiny bit of HO train stuff, Redline Hot Wheels, Matchbox cars ( pre superfast), Ideal Motorific's, I was interested in the old 1/32 scale Struamburg (?) slot car sets, love the 1/24 slot cars but the track, you would need a 2 car garage to set up in. Even seen some monster model kits.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

@@kennyspaulding796 A track that big in a 2 car garage would be SUPER fun to run on!!! Mostly Slot Car stuff and car model stuff, but yea, a little bit of train stuff.

[@AnthonyBatemanSr]

Good morning bro sorry for writing you twice the same thing it was supposed to say Cox dragster I talking to my phone sometimes it doesn’t spell it right but when I read back, I see it spelt wrong take care 🎉

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

I hear you, sometimes it just happens!

[@AnthonyBatemanSr]

@@THROTTLEPOWER The only thing is, I have great memories of those guys ❤️🎉

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

@@AnthonyBatemanSr I fully understand that Anthony

[@wti70]

Great job as usual. Thank you

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Thank you!!

[@edwardcox2840]

I have a good idea make that dollar car body a escort gasser lol think about it l made a chevy citiation into a gasser 454 big block back half the frame it is crazy looking but l love making something out of nothing 😂😂😂😂

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Now that is a GREAT idea!!!!!!!! 😉👍

[@josephrobertvanderhoff]

Expensive Hobby,,,,I find it ridiculous the prices for car models..Back in the day , you could spend 10 $ and walk out with four great models .

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Yep, those were the good ol days

[@snoopu2601]

Mon I want that old school dragster with the engine in the front. I've been looking for one. Been thinking about welding up my own dragster toy if I can't find one

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

👍🏁🏁👍

[@rickpayton3317]

[@rickpayton3317]

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

@@rickpayton3317 On the contest tables yes.... In the swap meet, should. Just never know what will show up for sale.

@@THROTTLEPOWER Thank you for listening. Yes, Barry was awesome. We all called them Dr because he was good working on engines. I bought off him a Cox badge bug and a Volkswagen. all things were cool. They had a little glow plug. I think the engine was a 0.409 something like that, but I love the smell of that fuel hook up the battery keep yanking it forever and it starts up. they were just awesome back then hope you have a great day Bro!.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]
