thanks,thats just what i'm looking for.i had to pick up a lot of soda bottles to buy one of those models back then lol .

 

How much did we get for those bottles? A penny, or a nickel each? You hit it big time if you found the large bottles.

Check Tom Daniels site for box art. Not Lindberg, but some wild stuff.

hey i thought 2 cents a bottle was great.the models were cheap back then.now they want more than i paid for some real cars i drove later on lol.

 

How bout this?



I have always loved that artwork by the late Al Borst of AMT. I built this pair of Deuces as a tribute to him.

I have a ton of box art photos on my website.

 

the sticker on my t model says 77 cents ,man we were living back then
