These kind of shows gotta' be a model car people's paradise! Really inspires you to create something 'different' from everything available!

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

So very true!

[@alancyr3100]

Awesome stuff! Hopefully you picked up some. Thanks for sharing

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Thank you Alan, yes, I did get a few things.... 🙂

[@deenjoan9938]

Some really nice kits there thanks for the look, I am sure you made some good scores

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

There really were some nice kits there to get and yes I did..... 🙂

[@diecast_MikeEspo]

Would have spent lots of cash . Awesome show and swap , a lot of interesting stuff. Mike

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

I understand that Mike as I had to limit my spending.

[@markblue5375]

Can't believe AMT never re- released the original RED ALERT 🚨

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

I agree!

[@SomeplaceOrAnother]

Wow 🤩 this looks like a big one 😎👍

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

It was! 🙂

[@apprenticephil649]

Greetings from Canada! Keep up the great coverage. If you think those are deals you should see Canadian shows. With the exchange rate you wouldn’t believe how good the prices are at swap meets here.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Glad you enjoyed the video, thanks for sharing that info!

[@no.email.please]

Hey-dar: I really like it when someone films a model car show swapmeet and gets close enough to the kits to see the prices, very, very, cool. Never heard why amt used a 72 Chevelle instead of a 70 like the real one? (MODEL CAR)(MAN CAVE) 👊😎👍

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Thank you, so glad you enjoy the videos.... I never heard either. 🙂👍

[@Charles_S.]

Thanks Tim for contact info, much appreciated 😉. Charlie Pro Tech Model Parts LLC

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Cool, was hoping you would see that Charlie. 🙂

[@wreckerjonny6144]

I'm sure Steve would like to tour this place. He may be watching. I see a lot of cool kits and some decent prices. I just brought home a truck load of models and diecast cars plus tools and other stuff this past 3 months.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Very cool!!!!!!!!!!

[@modelspeedshop]

Wow...we need another stimulus check! And I know just where to spend it! 😁

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Right on!!! 🤜🤛😉

[@bkmodelcars]

WOW Tim Saw alot of outstanding prices high and low would have spent a bundle Wish ft Wayne was bringing in that amount of venders

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

I agree Butch, more venders at the Ft. Wayne show would be nice.

[@michaelhintzmikesminiature1812]

You know I've heard about but have never seen the Red Alert kit. I wish we had car only shows here. I always see so many more auto kits in your show videos. Thanks for sharing

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Sure don't see that kit often Michael.

[@LarrysModelShop]

Man, what a great show. There are so many kits and decals and rebuilders. Craziness!

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

So very true Larry!

[@Merylstreep1949]

I see 20 grail kits in that opening shot! The Red Alert!!! Not even as good a kit as the later Chevelle kits but nostalgic!!! I totally need to re create it with a newer one!!

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

I agree, that would be a cool one to re create!!!!

[@davidchin350]

Thanks for taking us around the show Tim, enjoyed the vendor section and displayed models.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

So glad you enjoyed the video David!

[@doozersmodels3193]

Great looking show… thanks for sharing… keep an eye on your mailbox for the next couple weeks… build on 👍

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Thanks! Will do Dwayne! 🙂

[@ledheadkustomplastic3442]

Tim you seen a lot of killer stuff Brother.. At the beginning I saw that Chevy luv stepside truck and almost came unglued 😂 Haven't seen those since I was a kid and been watching for one.. Great video as always 😎👍🇺🇸

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

So true, you don't see them often. 👍🙂

[@MasteringTheModel]

When you said there was some smoking deals there, you weren't kidding. WOW! Wish I was there with some serious cash. Thanks for posting this brother.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

So true, a lot of people were buying! Glad you enjoyed the vid.

[@ThomasSmith-fz6wq]

One you don't ever see anymore is the 55 or 56 Ford truck panel model. I built one back in the 1970s.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

So very true!

[@oldsaerotech1167]

Ace ! The old kits we remember stay with us forever !

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Oh yea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@hensleyshobbies-doug7761]

I hope you got that Red Alert team, wow, I only remember seeing that same kit one other time, a long time ago. But man, yeah like you said, looked like a whole lot of deals there!

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Thanks Doug, I didn't have enough money to get it.

[@hensleyshobbies-doug7761]

@@THROTTLEPOWER - that's a bummer isn't it? Cool kit though! Well maybe next time, huh? 🤙🤘✌️

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

@@hensleyshobbies-doug7761 🤜🤛🙂 True

[@charlescain5838]

I made it but missed you I really enjoyed this show

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Was wondering if you were going to go.... I left at 12:15 when they closed the model section off for judging. I didn't enter so thought it was a good time to leave.

[@CarswithJDUB]

Always a treat. Great video....

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Glad you enjoyed it!!!!!

[@splendidkhan7528]

You are lucky you have that many shows out where you live, here in Colorado there are barely any model car kit swap meets. Apparently the hobby isn't very popular here especially compared to model trains, which we have a lot of swap meets for them, some of which are among the biggest in the U.S.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Yes, very lucky....... I've always heard trains/model railroading is BIG out that way.

[@rickzinck9326]

Great coverage Tim. $5.00 & $10.00 bucks for Flintstone bodies? wow, no wonder you got 2 bags full. The Red alert race team kit is way cool. Have a great rest of the week end. See you at ACME bud.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

So true, couldn't pass up the deals Jimmy had!!! See you at ACME.

[@JimFlanagan4206]

I would have picked up quite a few of those!

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

[@Merylstreep1949]

Hope u bought alot!!!

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

I picked up a few things. 🙂

[@georgegalbraith9899]

We missed you at the Owensboro swap meet contest

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Planned on going all year George as I've been to every one. But I had to go to an (unexpected) Funeral that day.

[@hortonshotrodshop2003]

Need to get a couple them jo han shirts

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

They are nice, I've bought both styles and enjoy mine.

I love all those vintage kits Tim ❤

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

I agree!! 🙂

[@swamppy4880]

The original Red Alert was a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle S.S. . I know because I put an original one together

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Aaaaaa, very cool!!!!!!!!!!

[@v8cool231]

In some ways I'm really jealous we never have model car shows of this scale here in the UK. We have model shows where they cater for all sorts, but the car side of them is really small. However, I'm glad we don't because I'd be divorced now.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

I understand that....... Glad you enjoy the vids.

[@michaelleftwich8186]

MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!! Where do these guys get those prices from? I like models, but I'm not going to pay $50 or $75 for one. That's just a little ridiculous, don't you think?

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

I agree!

[@christinecerne5547]

Smoking deals alright.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Oh yea!!!!!!!!

[@JimFlanagan4206]

Are you hoing to Modelnatti next weekend near Cincinnati? Is it a good show for car modellers?

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Probably not Jim.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]
