• Man !! I am P.O.'d. I bought a sealed MPC IMSA Monza Spyder and when I opened it, the bagged white parts are for the IMSA Mustang ll Cobra !! The glass, chrome and decals are for the Monza. I can't return it because I opened it. All of that money wasted. Thanks MPC. *NM*
  • Do you have a Mustang ll Cobra in your stash that you can use them on? *NM*
    • I have the Mustang kit, but it's MIB, nothing wrong with it. *NM*
      • The Mustang is the tougher of the two to find, too bad you got a mix of parts *NM*
        • One of those RC2 "Firefighter" reissue Mustang II kits can probably furnish all the chrome parts for that IMSA version except the wheels *NM*
          • Can anyone check that for me? I would like to build / have another IMSA Mustang Cobra. *NM*

      • Anyone remember the Seventies AMT kits with the crummy two-piece tires? You'd often get twice as many tire halves as you needed...
  • I'd like to mention that I did NOT buy my Monza kit from Spotlight Hobbies Matt and Dawn. I bought it from a private seller off of ebay. *NM*
  • I hate hearing things like this. I have at least 200 MPC kits. Don't remember having a parts problem with any. However, I have had problems with other manufacturers over 60+ plus years in this hobby (I'm 75). *NM*
  • I once had a Revell 1989 Thunderbird with the wrong taillights -
  • Got the Ala Kart, It had 2 interior tubs in the sealed bag, but no top. Round 2 is sending me one.. *NM* *PIC*
    • I've had three of the 'new' Ala Kart kits since it was first released. I've never gotten a complete one.
