Hi Bluecobra II! Welcome. That's a cool car you have. I haven't seen any II kits in a while. I used to have a couple of Pro Street Mustang II's,and a Monroe Handler. They are all gone now. If I find some,i'll be sure to pick them up. My theory is that they will start to reissue some of the old kits. They are running out of cars to make models for IMHO. Who in their right mind would want a model of a Civic with a wing and a fartcan on it?  [This message has been edited by MLariviere (edited 08-26-2002).]

Mike, you haven't seen the latest Tamiya catalog! Rice, rice, rice.
AMT and Revell have a program where they re-issue old kits avery month. They are limited edition kits so grab them when you see them. AMT now owns the old MPC line and Revell owns Monogram. They only show up in hobby shops and places like HobbyTown USA. They won't be at Wal-Mart.
Check eBay, too.
And if you didn't know, there are model shows with contests and swap meets. A lot of old stuff shows up at these shows.Tracy

There are some flea markets around here that have model kits,but they are expensive. I have a hard time paying $30 and up for a kit. In fact,I won't. We don't have any hobby chain stores around here.  We have places like AC MOORE and Michael's,but their selection is very limited. AC MOORE does have a coupon for 40 % off anything in the store in a local paper though!

I built one of those! It was the same body as the Monroe Handler.
